lTPAYS TO TRADE AT HOME

Back in the day when Columbus was inducing
Queen Isabella to finance his voyage to the Americas
there was no need of public consciousness and sense
of loyalty to keep local business trade within the con-
fines of the home community The folks who peopled
the earth at that time rarely knew how folks on the
yonder side of nearby mountains lived Unless OF
course, they among the adventuresome ones
ypified by Sir Christopher the less mobile Don
Quixote.
Just as that age passed so have the latter eras of
the horse and buggy, the tandem bicycle and the Model
T. Today get about in almost no time at all
Ninety minutes in modern automobile covers the same
route that consumed full days time quarter of
century ago.
Instead of being isolated communities the towns
of Casa Grande valley are as close to Arzona's two
largest cities their immediate suburban communities
were 25 years ago.
Because of these changed conditions there has de-
veloped lack of community spirit and community
loyalty which would not have otherwise occurred Folks
forget sometimes that the called bargain of the city
store may actually turn out to be of inferior quality
And if it does there nothing to be done about it.
Certainly We'll meet Mr. City Merchant on the
streets in his place of business to tell him
about it.
Coolidge merchants deserve the business of all of
| us who live in Coolidge They are entitled to all of
our business and not just part of and they are so
entitled for many One is that they give dollar
for dollar values They live amongst us and spend their
| money with US. They pay taxes into the same COM
munity development fund in which we pay our taxes
| They contribute to every worthwhile cause which
| promises to benefit the community as a whole They
valuable community assets None of this is true of
| the out-of-town merchant.
| No Coolidge merchant no professional man no
single individual within the boundaries of Coolidge
reasonably hope to prosper to an extent greater
than the degree of prosperity which exists in the whole
| community.
If we live in Coolidge, Buy in Coolidge, Trade in
| Coolidge.

BY BARBARA BELL.


Each of these juvenile patterns Is
carefully planned to please and to
fatter the special size-range for
which it is designed. Thus pattern
No. 1863 is designed with a care
full eye on the proportions and pref
erences of choosy young ladies be-
tween the sizes of 6 and a. Because
they are inclined to be bit lanky
and straight up and down, it has
decided WaiStline and a very full
skirt, with balloon-like puff sleeves
to emphasize the good effect of both.
AS simple as children's clothes must
always be, it has deft touches of
Frightening braid and a nice little
square yoke It's in such good taste,
so simple, and so well-planned for
small figures that it grows right up
with the girl, being as becoming to
her at IA as at 6.
Little tots of to 6, on the other
hand, will be cutter than cute in the
three piece fashion interpreted in
pattern No 1313-B. It's such COM
plete little thing that you can prac-
tically outfit a tot for the coming
outdoor summer by repeating it time
and again. This design includes a
f1aring scrap of a play frock with
straps over the shoulders, for tomboy
moments, and a little bolero that
transforms it into something demure
and dressy enough for afternoon.
Also, there's an eye-shading bonnet
that goes with play frock and bolero
frock both Half a dozen of this
pinafore- -bolero- bonnet combination
won't be bit too many for any tiny
girl.
Gingham, linen. seersucker and
percale are practical materials for
children's dresses.

Split Dollar Bill Gets Man In Trouble

Talk about splitting hairs, the Sitka police recently jailed l9- year-old youth who has been en- gagged in the gentle art of split ting dollar bills.
 He is Tom O'Brien, who has ben working for the Stems Drake Puget Sound construction firm on the defense base at Sitka.
 O'Brien is being held on a charge of drunken and disorder ly conduct, but he is reported to have attempted to pass several dollar bills which had been neat ly spit. At the time of his arrest, some of these split bills were found on his person.
 By splitting the bills, O'Brien was able to fold them with the blank side in so that each split portion of the bill gave the ap- pearance of 2 complete paper dollar.
