What do you do
when you can’t wait?
T
WHEN A CRISIS COMES
..'. and you need a prescription filled
at midnight
... or your plumbing starts leaking
... or your car won't start
... or you run out of clean shirts
... or when the cupboard or the baby
is bare
DO YOU saddle up and take a day off
to get the matter taken care of in the
City, or do you write to a catalog
house for help?
OF COURSE NOT. Likely you hardly
recognize these and similar predica-
ments as crises.
Because YOU'VE GOT NEIGHBORS,
right here at home . • • with their skill
and their money invested in establish-
ments able to take most of your trou-
bles on their own shoulders so quickly
that you scarcely notice they are dif*
ficulties at all. x
But HOW MANY skilled craftsmen,
and good business njen, and good
. ■ “a
neighbors, and good workers in civic
and church affairs, and good taxpayers
-f
• . . how many of these have cut down
their stocks, laid off employees/or left
the country . • . because all you were
:;4
buying from them was the things you
couldn't wait to get somewhere else
• • . and how many will leave in the
w M
future to go where your money is
going?
These commentaries on the economic facts of community life are sponsored
by these . . • firms • • • the only business establishments in the world who are
sincerely interested in YOUR welfare.
