is the real drawing power in lo
cating new enterprises that are
to aid in building up and devel
oping our community.
It is the SPIRIT BEHIND
these actions. It is the BROAD
and JUST vie.v taken by the
CITIZENS of the community—a
view that RECOGNIZES the
VALUE of the enterprise sought
that CONCEDES its USEFUL-
NESS as a FACTOR in the com
munity.
We are all human. We like to
be appreciated at what we feel
and know to be our real worth.
Even the hardest headed busi
ness man among us is suscepti
ble to a just appreciation of his
worth to the community.
So when we show to industiy
that we WANT it; when we say
to it. bv our words and acticns,
that we APPRECIATE it and
VALUE it at its TRUE WORTH,
then it is that industry conceives
a desire to be among us and of
us.
Our town will be as big as our
guniue ambition. It will be as
progressive as we are. And the
spirit of the population we at
tract will be OF THE SAME
KIND as our own spirit.
| You never find a live person
under a slab in a grave yard.
And towns are but collections of
people and enterprises from
which those people live.
