DID YOU EVER
 STOP TO THINK

 THAT your merchants are city builders. Their stores and theil stocks are up-to-date- THAT some business men are destroyers; they really have no req son for it. They just lack pep.
 THAT businesses rise and fall just like some men.
 THAT men are good or bad, happy or miserable, according to the use they make of their brains and the op- portunities that present themselves. Some men grasp opportunities, others just thru lack of pep and business foresight let them slide by.
 THAT there are great opportuni- ties for business development in your city.
 THAT great many business men are grasping their opportunities.
 THAT the ones who are alive and TISE.
 THAT advertising brings more bus mess. It brings better business anl 1t brings life and success to buiness.
 THAT if you ever want to know who the live, city-boosting patriotic business men of your city are, you will find their names in the advertis- ing columns. They believe that if is worth having it is worth going after.
