HIGHWAYS and BUY-WAYS Everyone welcomes good roads. There is a sense of freedom in the knowledge that we can travel far and wide with comfort, speed and safety. Good roads are a they offer a challenge, too.

Modern automobiles and modern highways exert a great influence upon buying habits. They might even tend to build up one community at the expense of another, but for one important transport trade in either direction impartially. MERIT Merchants of Humboldt are meeting the challenge of good roads squarely and fearlessly. Well they know that trade goes where it is invited and stays where it is well treated. Any advantages which the larger city may claim in luring trade are more than offset by the enterprising merchants in the smaller city.

The-knowledge which he alone has of customers' needs and desires enables him to serve them with unrivaled efficiency. Ease of in time and transportation cost freedom from trafic congestion and parking weigh heavily in favor of the local market. About the only advantage his big city brother can boast is larger sales volume, and even that will be eliminated through co-operation with and from the buying public. With your aid in building volume, your merchants can reduce costs surprisingly? Savings thus effected will be promptly and cheerfully passed along to customers in the shape of constantly lowered prices. Let's all work together and make the prosperity of our community keep pace with the imprpvement in Iowa's highways.
