Local Business
Small City Residents Gain Nothing
In Metropolitan Christmas Shopping
Seventy per cent of the
shoppers who perennially
leave small cities to buy
Christmas needs in dis-
tant metropolitan centers
gain nothing in variety or
savings.
This estimate, made
from a study of markets
in cities under 25,000 is
considered conservative
by some retailers. The
merchant may justly won-
der why local citizens—
perhaps his own family—
travel 50 to 100 miles to
buy Christmas gifts.
Who is responsible for
the recurrent sapping of
community wealth? Why
is loyalty to the loal
community so flagrantly
void?
The merchant who
raises such questions
should look first to him-
self. He may be respon-
sible.
The retailer who fails
to inform consumers that
his bicycles or doll car-
riages are attractive in
price and quality may be
responsible for shopping
in metropolitan media.
It is an essestial ser-
vice in retialing to in-
form the community that
variety, brand names, and
bargains are conveniently
available.
The consumer habitu-
ally depends upon news-
paper advertising to com-
plete a lengthy Christmas
list. He can not shop at
home if he does not
know who has what in local
stores.
The shopper, then,of-
ten fails his local retail-
er only because the re-
tailer first fails to prj-
vide as essential ser-
vice through advertising.

EL PASO---Mrs. J. B.
Howe of Panhandle repre-
sented the Panhandle Girl
Scout Council at the Re-
gion IX conference here
November 11-13.
The conference was one
in a series of nation meet-

broaden our vision and
widen our horizons, to
gain knowledge, inspira-
tion and renewed enthu-
siasm for our Girl Scout
jobs, to become aquainted
with developments and
new trends in the Girl
Scout program, to meet
together with volunteers
and staff, local units,
members of the regional
committees, representa-
tives of the national board
of directors and national
staff.
Special focus of the
conference was on pro-
gram comm unity rela-
tions and international
friendship.
The three-day event in-
cluded a tour of Juarez,
Mexico; a pro gram
“Bridges to Understand-
ing,” a breakfast for
council presidents at
which individual pro-
blems were discussed,
programs entitled “Brid-
ges of Support-Girl
Scout Program in Ac-
tion,” “Bridges to Bet-
ter Program,” “Inter-
national Bridges,”
“Bridges to the Commu-
nity,” and “Bridges to the
Future.”
Concluding the pro-
gram was a talk, “The
Years Before Us,” by
Mrs. Holton R. Price, Jr.,
national Girl Scout presi-
dent.

COOPERATION and
GO HAND-IN-HAND
As a matter of fact COOPERATION made the first
THANKSGIVING possible.
That was more than 300 years ago.
Ever since that time—in 1621—people, COOPERATING
together, have been able to accomplish more for themselves
individually than they could working alone!
Today people working together through their COOPE-
RATIVES make their communities stronger and better
places in which to live and work and raise our children.
Today the community of Panhandle is a better place
in which to live and work and raise our children because
of the goods and services which people, COOPERATING >
TOGETHER, have brought to this area.
SUPPORT YOUR CO-OPS: PATRONIZE THEM.
