WHAT BRINGS SUccESs'-NEVER

It is lesson after lesson with the

picture after picture with the painter,
mile after mile with the traveller I'M
provement after improvement with the
city, that secures what all so much de-

The completion of one task, then
taking up another, is the result OF
patient perseverance, Leaving task
when only begun, to grasp for some
task of a more glossy exterior Will
lead to but one terminf wreck.
The men, organizations or communi-
ties who are today known outside OF
their own small circles, have gained
recognition by a patient, persistent
forward march. Sometimes ii has

danger to a community must be ward

source, then by intelligent defense

men, organizations or communities, is
the source of constant adverse crlti-

any work worthy of record without

The Bryan Commercial Club has
stood for civic Improvement, CONNER
cial expansion, industrial development
The general purpose is to make bryan

The foundation is civic improve

veloping of plans to obtain this result
a fixed objective was sure to create
opposition, but by patient labor, ob-
iections were turned to favor. True
errors must be corrected. II the utlll-
ties secured are not ideal, the improve
ment is so great that confidence IN the
ultimate result is secure.
Commercial expansion is no small
