Newspapers have goods to sell the same as any other merchant. Their goods consist of newspapers and advertising space. They can no more afford to give them away than a merchant can afford to give his stock away. And still many people try to get something for nothing.

If a man does not believe in the city in which he lives, he should move to some other city and make room for someone who does believe in it.

Every business man should be a member of the Chamber of Commerce in his home city. He owes it to himself, to his business and to his community to be an active part in the building of and the general welfare of the city and surrounding country.

Business success these days is confined to those concerns who realize that in order to get business they must invite it by newspaper advertising.

The more capital invested in industries in a city the larger its resources will be and the better the city will be in which to live and make a living. Boost the industries of your home city!
