    : OBSERVER -
We suggest that every business
man in McDonough get up a boos
ter advertisement and insert it in
’the last issue of The Weekly
before the holidays and let’s have
a booster edition of The Weekly
on that date. 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.
