Washington, D. C.-First replies to
President Coolidge's telegram to west

Some young men rush off to the
cities claiming there is no satisfac-
tory business opportunity in the cOun-
try towns. II they are not interested
in farming they sometimes say that
the chances open to them In rural busi-
ness are not big enough to suit them.
Young men who take that attitude
should realize that many men are max
ing large success In country town
enterprises today. Many country stores,
by liberal advertising have built up
trade extending far beyond their own
town and county They draw automo-
bile visitors from a radius Of many
miles. The country town store can do
business at relatively less expense than
the stores in large cities, and is in
position to make lower average prices.
If you will tell the public about these
low prices, it can draw trade long
distance.
nt NbuhH mum ohAh'h' ~ -
cessful business career should not
lightly pass over the chances offered
in such enterprises. Many young men
after making a success in one store
have bought out others in the same
line in other towns, and have built up
chains and groups of such enterprises.
There will probably be more manu-
featuring in country towns in the
future. Labor costs are high in the
cities. due to high cost living condi-
tions. Many firms have done well by
closing up their city factories and re-
moving to some country district, where
living costs were reasonable and where
their help was better of on lower
wages.
The young man who will keep his
eyes open can find plenty Of business
opportunity In the rural districts.

one dollar and nifty cents worth, If
the rate was as low as fifteen cents.
One of the benefits derived from the
farmers clubs and womens' clubs and
other rural community organizations,
is that they help country people to ex-
press themselves. Up to recent years,
the majority of country people could
not talk well in public. Their heads
were full of good and practical ideas.
But they did not have enough self con
fidence to express them before crowd
of people. This has handicapped the
country towns. Many people who
through their mentality and practical
experience have been fitted to lead,
could not do so because of this feeling
of difiidence about expressing their
ideas.
In the various rural organizations
people get over this self consciousness
