the same line with reference to the situa-
tion as it is today, and find some who say
that if we had the merchants like “we had
them back thirty-five years ago,” and so
on.
All of which makes us wonder if we
are not spending too much time coaxing
the calamities that are in such folk rather
than pushing the possibilities of our own
business and town.
A town is not built by the kind who
sit back and let the others do all the ad-
vertising in the hope their own store will
be filled by the other fellow’s energy, nor
is it bettered by our sitting around cussing
such fellows, who like barnacles, are to be
found in every town.
No town should let the slowest pacer
give the rate at which that community will
move and no chisler should be permitted to
hold back things.
We know of a merchant in a certain
town who lets his fellow townsmen who
runs a store near him campaign for trade
With special advertising display and space
in newspapers. This chisler then imitates
some of the front of the other man’s store
and hopes to get people in his own. He
even snoops around to get a price or two
and makes a cut on that item to try and
scuttle under the man with a city building
conscience. Such chislers, however, do not
last long and generally are discredited by
| legitimate and high-minded citizens.
They move on then to another com-
munity, only to start all over again their
; same old style of imposing on other people.
