Indeed we have been watching it grow. And McDonough has been growing. Within a decade Mc- Donough has almost become an other city. New and better and handsomer business houses have replaced old and autiquated structures. New and beautiful homes have sprung up in every part of the city. And we have been busy watch ing. That is our trouble. We must change our slogan to “Help McDonough Grow.” Never before hare our citizen individually been more enterpris ing and more prosperous. Yet we see large slices of teritory ours being appropriated by other towns, where co-operative enter prise goes hand-in-hand with in vidual enterprise. It may be true that our people are satisfied with the volume of busi ness we are now receiving. If that be the case, then our town pride should spur us to enlarge our territory and make more room for other business concerns and industries, and so help McDonough to grow. Almost daily our railroad station entertains for hours people who are coming from the south-east enroute to Indian Spring. Some of these people could be interest ed in the investment opportuni ties offered by our town and county. But nobody offers them and they must have a human voice before human ears will hear oi their wonderful possibilities. We could mention many other opportunities at our doors, knock ing in the night while we as a community sleep or else are ab sent at our individual concerns. The remedy for this lack of ac tion is a community concern and it should be a community’s work to provide it. We have a town pride, but it is not active. We need to organ ize our town pride and then this pride will go to work for McDon ough. We need a Board of Trade. An effort is now on foot to or ganize one. Join the movement and make it a success.
