UNITED PAYING DIVIDENDS

Stockholders of the United Tele-
phone Company are receiving their
second quarterly dividend checks for
1922. This is the 65th consecutive
payment that the United has made
on its preferred securities and be-
speaks the soundness and safeness of
an investment plcaed in a home con-
cern that is supplying constantly
growing necessity of life. The state
charter board only recently approved
an increase in capital stock for the
United Telephone Company from
S3,OOO,OOO to $5,OOO,OOO so that "a
large block of the per cent non

There is probably not a subject
that is more irksome to the reader
than the constantly written articles
on the theme of patronage of home
industry, yet there is not a single
phase of merchandising and upbuild-
ing of a live commercial center that
is of as much Importance as the main
tenance of the 'fbuy at home" spirit
among the customers. 1t is for this
reason that the Free Press is includ-
ing one article on this subject
throughout this campaign and the
writer will attempt to show the read
er where it is to their advantage to
buy at home and keep every dollar in
their county for the development of
the county as far as is possible.
The Merchants Responsibility
Experience has prvoen however, in
the past, that the success of main
tanning home markets and their
patronage does not rest altogether
with the customer. The merchant
has his place to fill and the consumer
is not to be blamed for sending his
money out of his territory for com
modities he wants, if he cannot get
them from his home trading place. Or
if the home merchant follows the
policy of charging eXhorbitant prices
for his merchandise.
1t is true that all commercial cen
tiers are established for the benefit of
the citizens living in that community,
and while many people may look up
on the merchant as being well paid
for his efforts in maintaining an up
to-date store, the fact Is that his
store is maintained for the conven-
fence OF the customer. The merchant
is merely the go4between and the
profits he receives are his remunera-
