Last Friday, w. S. Green received
a message telling of the death OF his
Youngest brother in an army hospital
at Woolwich, England. He joined the
British forces in 1915 when only SIX
teen wears of age, serving in the
ROYAL Field Artillery. In 1917 he was
gassed and so disabled for time.
Five months later he returned to ac-
tive duty and served continuously on
the French front during the remain
der of the war; After the Armistice
was signed he remained in the ser
vice until a short time ago when he
was taken to the hospital where he
passed away October 10.

lars. Before he can obtain a cent of
profit, he must offer big stock of
the goods the public wants, attrac-
lively displayed in conveniently
arranged store of adequate size. with
all necessary equipment for handling
his goods, and with well paid, cour-
teous sales people whose purpose is
to render service to the trade. Not
until this investment has been made
and his business is set in all its
completeness before the people of
the town can he hope to get back
even SO much as one cent of profit.
Once they locate, they become fix
lures and nothing short of consid-
cradle term of years suffces to win
for them even fair return for their
money. To leave before their BUSH
ness, and the business of the towns
are squarely on their feet, would be
poor business policy; to leave after
prosperity had come would be folly.
Does not such a citizen deserve
your cooperation?
/ No group of citizens are greater
boosters for the schools than the
merchant. It means greater oppor-
tunities for the generation that
comes after them. They reap little
direct benefit, and they bear the
greatest share of the tax burden, be-
cause of the larger valuation of their
property. Every family benefits, its
boys and girls being helped on the
road to better citizenship. In the
same way do the business men con-
tribute to libraries, churches and 9TH
er agencies, as well as take lead
ing part in patriotic celebrations and
community activities, lecture cours-
es, concerts for the public and SINH
lar movements.
This is the man on whose progress
sive leadership the future Of the COM
munity depends. To trade with Ken
newick merchants means dollars for
you.
