Have you that warm and generous sentiment that inspires a williness to co-operate in all public enterprises and improvements? Is there in this community an affection for the old home town that binds the people together for common interest? If there is not something is lacking, and that something is public spirit It is tin* duty of our people to'stand together in a business way and keep their money circulating at home. It is better to depend upon each other, help each other, and spend our money among our neighbors and friends. The habit of spending your money within the limits of your home town has a double purpose. Those dollars will go the rounds and come hack to us, and then go out and go the rounds again. It pays our bills and yet we do not lose sight of it. We know that If we have not got it, some other fellow iu the community has, and that it will come around again in the course of time. Jones pays Williams aud Williams pays Hamilton and Hamilton pays the blacksmith. The blacksmith then pays the grocer and the grocer pays the butcher and the farmer, and pretty soon those same dol lars come back when the farmer buys a load of lumber from Jones, and Jones pays Williams for painting his house, and Williams pays Hamilton his weekly store bill, and Hamilton takes the old buggy mare to flit' blacksmith to fie shod, paying for the job with the same dollar that has come all down the line, paying one person after another, time and time again, until some less loyal person sends it away to a mail order house for some article that he might have bought at home, and thus that dollar has gone out of the community forever, and with it many other dollars that would have done us a world of good had we kept them working within the limits of our town. Every dollar sent away reduces our community wealth. It is a drain upon the* commercial interest of this town and reduces our purchasing power. As long as every man and woman in this community have dollars in their pockets the business of the community is good, but let those dollars be sent to some other city, and ail are at once poor. We have lost our circulating medium, our good fellowship and our community interest. Co-operation made us happy and in easy circumstances, but when we went out of the circle to get what we should have got at home the wheels turn less briskly. Sending money out of town is like throwing a monkey wrench into the generator—it upsets the whole system of community business. There is another side to this matter, and one that should be studied carefully. The citizens of the community owe much to the merchants and business men of every kind in their community. They have cheerfully paid their taxes for the support of the schools, they have contributed to the churches, the Sunday schools, and every public enterprise, they have paid in taxes for the im provement of the streets, sidewalks and every other public utility, and if they prosper they will keep on doing so; but the merchant in Atlanta, or some other city, who has received our money for something we could have purchased at home, will never contrib ute one cent to our community interest nor help us in the devel opment of our public utilities. 1 herefore, let us all la 1 loyal to our own, and in a brotherly way take genuine pride in supporting our home institutions.— Covington News.
