Our town will soon have a day current turned on and several new business enterprises are now a certainty, and every body should put their shoulder to the wheel and pull together for a greater McDonough. What say you Mr. Business Man ? What say you Mr. Editor ? Be a booster. Pull for your town. No room for kickers. Be a Henry County booster. Pull for home industries. Speak a good word or don't say.
