If 8o, here are a few vital points to consider. The live town is always on the lookout to add another industry to its list. Industries make work, and work attracts workers, and of workers the town is built. A manufacturing plant added to your town means a positive addition to the earning capacity of every citizen of the town. So that, in encour- aging new industries you are not only patriotically aiding your community, but you are directly promoting your own fortunes. ‘We have seen a few so-called business men who were satisfied with the population of their community—didn’t want any more people, didn’t want any more trade, didn’t want any more money. Those men were dead and didn’t know it—but the community DID know fit. will GET them. Its facilities may be limited; its wealth may not be great; its situation may even not be advantageous. But a LIVE PUBLIC SPIRIT —-an appreciation of every added asset—is the feature that most attracts the intelligent business man who is seeking a location. No manufacturer wants to conduct a business in a dead town. ters not that the town may not use a dollar’s worth of his goods. very atmosphere of the dead town is like a wet blanket on his business. The town with pep, with ginger, with hustle, injects the same qualities into every business within its environs. Shrewd business men know this, and hunt for just such towns. If we would grow as a town we must show that we WANT growth. And we must offer INDUCEMENTS. For instance— It mat- The We want to land a manufacturing plant. We go after it. The man- agers stipulate for a convenient site donated. We donate it. We secure the plant. Now, did the donation of the site secure the plant. IT DID NOT. That was the smallest consideration. The SPIRIT that PROMPTED the donation was the magnet that did the pulling. The managers of the en- terprise wanted to locate in a community where that spirit ruled. ‘They could afford to pay for a site, but there was no way of determining whether the community really WANTED their enterprise located in its midst. And thus it goes on and on. It is not the bonus, or the site, or even the exemption from taxes that is the real drawing power in locating new enterprises that are to aid in building up and developing our community. It is the SPIRIT BEHIND these actions. It is the BROAD and JUST view taken by the CITIZENS of the community-—a view that RECOGNIZES the VALUE of the enterprise sought, that CONCEDES its USEFULNESS as a FACTOR in the community. We are all human. We like to be appreciated at what we feel and know to be our real worth. Even the hardest headed business man among us is susceptible to a just appreciation of his worth to the community. So when we show to industry that we WANT it; when we say to it, by our words and our actions, that we APPRECIATE it and VALUE it at its TRUE WORTH, then it is that industry conceives a desire to be among us and of us. Our town will be as big as our genuine ambition. It will be as pro- gressive as we are. And the spirit of the population we attract will be COF THE SAME KIND as our own spirit. . You never find a live person under a slab in a graveyard. And towns are but collections of people and enterprises from which those people live. WHAT ARE WE? Universal service wouldn't be so bad after all. Instead of ogling voung girls on the streets, our nineteen-year-old mashers would be devoting their valuable time to the delightful occupation of diggin trenches ,par- ing suds, washing dishes and drilling in the boiling sun. Make it universal! Some sensitive people are beginning to wonder if a man will feel any better in the next world after being blown up by a mine, than he would have felt had he been sunk by a submarine. Well, anway, Tom Lawson has been swallowed up in a bigger scare. Verily, there is some consolation, even in our greatest misfortunes. An exchange says a man should have a good excuse ready before com- mitting a mean act. The average man has. He's the excuse. Bankers don’t like the new coins because they say they are hard to stack. But we are not running a bank. | trot it along. This uncertainty interferes v‘lthl If we must have war, Sundey dinners. EMIDJI DAILY PIONEER You can cure that cold in a day.
