The understand- ing of selfishness and its disastrous effects came slowly with civiU ization. and even up to the present time it is not entirely universally recognized, but in bu.sines-s today it is admitted that the one looking for elf alone is doomed. Yonr community today points with pride to its success, and when asked the reason you remark that it is due to the unselfish spirit of its merchants and residents, one Idbking after the other's interests. The more prosperous your merchants are the more enriched you become your dollars spent among them re- verts back to you continuously. It enchnnces real estate and k the one thing that creates the desire in others to locate, among vou. Community co-operation is good It is necessary. Don't play alone. Eliminate selfishness from your community by co-operating with your merchants and nil business interests. Buy in Flesherton and keep yourself big in the thought that it is your community and you are a big factor in making it what it is. Nuf sed.
