determined by the type OF its leading bust
ness men. Ii they are men Of enlarged
views, of wise f~orethought, sagacicUs TO per-
celFe the possibilities, - well as prObabiii-
tics, OF the future, aud ready to meet each
emergency as II ariss g; If they comprehend
the truth that there Is = time to SOW a well
az a time TO reap, and are prompt to respond
70 the increasing demands OF each coming
year, they can MAKE their city famous for its
enterprise, growth and general prosperity.
Especially Is this true IN the early history, or
primitive period Of a city. For "thore is a
tide IN the affairs OF cities, as well a. of mon,
which, taken st the flow leads III to fortune"
