NEWARK POST. NEWARK. DELAWARE. SEPTEMBER 17. 1924. II The. 'Key to ·Better Business' • / Home ~ Trade • I - Years ago The Post ad.pted the slogan "If you can:t get it in Newark, buy it in Wilmington." The idea back of this is, "Buy at Home." The citizen who is most interested in his town does this. If a Newark Mer. chant by chance does not have. the exact article wanted, the real citizen place's his order through him. The .merchant makes the profit, the citizen gets the article at the same price, ~he money stays at home, the town prospers. It is good citizenship, good sense, and good business to buy in Newark. BUY AT· HOME The Advertisers in the Post are good business men and good citizens. They are working for a profit, of course but that is not all. They are real citizens who contribute in taxes, in gifts, time and energy in making Newark the worth while town it is. Without their support of every good mov,ement, without their taxes, the town would not have the rank and record that we now enjoy. ., They boost Newark not by lip loyalty but by service. ,They are friends of ours, friends of yours, friends of Newark in a very practical way.
