HELLO! HOW is III GOING?

now to all those who patrOnize their home
town paper, but first let me say from
sincere heart that say the same to you,
now read the head lines again and let's
shake.
Thank you from the bottom Of my
heart for all the kind wishes and assuI.-
ances that your patronage shall prove your
words is as your bond.
Well, tell most folks in reply that if
it were better | would bust and some times
it really means that points, for instance
one day this last week | walked into the
business houses of three of the largest con-
suners of hard coal in this vicinity and in
less time than it takes to write this,
walked out with an order and assurance
that had secured their continued patron
age. Can you blame me for near busting
at times like that, Of course | buck up
against obstacles that demand the exer-
else Of my power of experience and in a lit
tie while these apparent mountains be-
come mole hills" and my courage is like
wise expanded, at every victory. 1t is these
obstacles that are really my best friends.
Now you say there he is again putting
himself up, but wait, lets consider the
cause of this egotisn, | will tell you that
the practice of the Golden Rule" in prac-
teal business has so worked out to my
advantage that am not the least afraid to
apply it against any mountain of difficult
ties, because l know its application will
without a question reduce the mountain
to mold hill
So before you pass too severe a criticism,
test me but with some business and if I
do fail to serve you as | would like to be
served shall humbly accept your criti-
cism and give you my promise shall en-
deavor to see that it viii not again occur.
Because of my present lack Of cash CAPT
tai to open up at once an ideal coal service
station. | have been compelled to start bus
mess with a single car of coal, also to act
as my own truck driver this has its adj
vantages and its disadvantages, but
my point is this, if l had been
financially able to open up with a
stock and equipment equal to the average
coal dealers, Judging by the business l did
the first week of having this one kind of
coal on hand, would have sold over 200
tons of coal, if l had been able to supply
all sizes that is not 50 bad as l dare say
there are a very few dealers in this vicin-
ity who are today well established, as far
as stock, equipment and time Of being in
the business is concerned, that did that
much business last week. If this first
weeks business is used in Judging the flu
ture, what may l expect, when l have in
operation a coal service station that will
be the latest in every particular, as to the
economical handling of coal, plus stock Of
coal equal to the best obtainable?
So much for, so far. Now what do you
want to do toward financing this improve
ment coming in your midst, for your per-
sonal happiness and comfort? What will
give you more happiness and comfort than
to assist to give to yourself and your
friends and neighbors a real honest to
goodness Coal Service Station, that will
supply your homes and business houses,
BETTER HEAT AT LESS COST?"

ment of this cooperative, profit sharing,
