Bat it is more than "sug ar and spice" that makes little girls nice. Dresses and sweaters, coats and shoes, trinkets and sweets, and many other things are needed. And from year to year these items change in style and design. So the "little girls" must make new purchases or have them made for them. . i.,' For the most part, these "little girls" or the parents cf the girU make the purchase in their home town stores. They know that nation ally known products of reputable make are sold by their fi'ends on Main street. They also know that the prices paid are comparable or lower than those paid in the "big city." And they kmv thn.t much time can be saved, for there isn't that need of a lot of extra traveling to the ''big city," nor is there a need for searching for parking or pay ing for a parking space. That is just part of it. They, the ones who haven't fallen for the "big city" shopping lure, know money spent out of town is a definite loss to their heme community. For cut of every purchase, a small part in taxes is paid to local government. This, added to the taxes paid on purchases made by other loyal heme town people, supports the schools, maintains roads and builds the community. They also know that the local, home town merchant is for the community, he pays taxes, hires local people to serve, takes part in and keeps his money in the community, where he makes his income community activities, supports all community programs and campaigns and supports the other merchants in the community. The "little girls are made nicer by the fact that the merchandise they purchase or have purchased for them is of the latest styling, best quality and at the lowest possible prices, for the local merchant doesn't add cn the extra money for gaudy and fancy promotional events. He is a merchant bent on c.ne thing serving the people of the community and supporting the community.
