CO-OPERATION:
Individual effort to make the town a better place is good. It may accomplish much if properly directed. But if all the units of industry, business, religion, education and society are harnessed together and set to work for the good of the community, the total result will be a revelation of the power of co-operation.
RICHMOND is climbing up toward the ideal or sliding back into the rut according as it possesses or lacks community co-operation.
You as an individual have power to accomplish almost anything you set out to accomplish. What a man wills to do, that he can do. Just so, your own, as a town, can accomplish anything it sets out to accomplish.
Organized efforts in RICHMOND will bring about practically any condition we set out to develop.
To increase our business and general welfare is first necessary.
Legally, anyone can spend his money where he prefers, but nevertheless there is an obligation to spend it where you get your money's worth.
