In and Out and
Gone Forever
Not here today and gone tomorrow. Not rushing into Milledgeville grabbing
all the business to be had and out again. Not by extragavant overtalk and
over-statements forcing inferior merchandise on to you. Not dodging taxes,
civic responsibilities and all duties of citizenship. Not a parasite. Not an in-
sdious Home Town Destructioniist.
Such only is Chain Store, the Peddler, the Canvasser, the Self-styled Traveling
Representative, the Field Manager, who comes into your town takes your
oiliou Home Town Destructionist.
Compare That Type With Milledge
ville s Merchants and Business Men
Milledgeville business men are here 365 days a yeAT to feerve you at your con
venience, to back up the merchandise they sell to you, to share taxes and civic
responsibilities, to help make community life happier and more prosperous, to
rejoice in your joys, to be neighborly, to sorrow with you when trouble comes,
—and to stand by you when in need.
The future of Milledgeville hinges absolutely on community loyalty from every
one of its citizens.
My town FIRST—then loyalty to its merchants and business men; its schools;
its churches; to community activities; to neighbors, and in so doing, we will
be making progress—in our jobs, our homes, our investments.
