THE NEW INDUSTRY

In recent years, the towns of Tabor
City and Loris have come up with
more mutual understanding than ever
in their past existence. More and more
OF the businessmen of both munich
palities, even though in different
States, have come to realize that
what's good for one, is good for the
other. They have also come to know
that in numbers there is strength
what one might not be able to do
alone, is not impossible together.
Now there are still some in both
towns against this kind of thinking.
this kind of cooperation. There's still
streak of jealousy, yes a streak of
selfishness, that comes to light when
new horizons pop up to be conquered.
lheSe, too, are entitled to their opin-
ions, even though contrary to ours.
While financially it is far from be-
ing out of the woods, the golf course
and swimming pool was all but inn
possible for either town, but feasible
when working together. The Loris
Community Hospital was strictly a

town would have had.

towns been here. 1t took the two this
close together to make it practical.
The Lake Tabor project of several
years ago required the selling of stock
TO some ESQ persons. A look over the
persons who bought that stock shows
mat goodly number were from Loris
and Horny county.
When the need arose a coupIe of
years ago to sell stock in Tabor CITY
Foods, this stock was sold and vo,

The strawberry arrangement was no,

revival of that facility here was
affected. That, of course: is the privi

iaciltles appear in order and in the
best interest of the economy.
All OF which is designed to show
that working together things have
progressed that might otherwise have
died natural deaths.
Now the occasion arises to assis,

closer to Loris than Tabor City. and

access to water and sewage facilities

but there can be no denying that
an industry employing $50 men or

ne retail streets of Tabor City. In
larger towns, you could reside within
the city limits and have further to 90

instance If you lived in Tabor CITY

We have said it again and again and will now say
it once more - something needs to be done about
the parking problem in Tabor City. How many times
have you gone uptown lately and found that all the
parking spaces taken for several blocks Pretty
discouraging wasn't it? If you noticed the cars you
might have been surprised to find that belonged
to merchants Or, maybe you weren't surprised!
think that all merchants realize that using
valuable parking spaces for their own only
discourage shoppers from trading in their stores
Is it because of simple forgetfuness? If it is, then
more people are getting forgetful than thought.
Many people will not come to Tabor to go shopping
simply because they hate to fight the parking
problem.
If the merchants and their employees would CO.
operate, then they would find that total receipts
had risen and customers were easier to please. One
of the toughest customers to please is who has
lust had to drive around the block several tmess
before finding space. This type customer is hot
under the collar and just itching to be crossed The
customer who has fairly easy time finding a space
is more amicable and willing to be patient.
Some persons have suggested installing parking
meters. This lin our opinion. would only add to the
problem 1t would cause patrons to go to other towns
that have free parking. The best thing do is to
have merchants and employees park off the street.
(The exercise might do all some good) The
BUSINESS world today says to all businessmen Nee,
he demand and then you will sell the supply"-C. B.
