THE BACk-UP SYSTEM

There has been great desl written

sists Of card index eytem that is so
good nobody knows anything about It
but the girl that has charge Of It.
But the back-up system?
The back-up system starts right
back at the beginning of things. It
starts back where the idea Of the
founding Of business started. The
back-up system is the thing that
makes all other systems-including it,
step brother, the followup possible.
An institution is but the lengthen-
ed shadow of its back-up system. On
the integrity, the standard the house
works by, its thoughtfulness for its

There is the satisfaction that is yours
in the knowledge that your goods are
exactly as represented, that the buyer
is getting the very fullest measure
for his money and that it will be rec
ognized by a business friendship.

Success For The Specialist

Among boatload of immigrants a
few years ago. says the Outlook, was
a poor young man who settled in Kan
sas City and set up small peanut
stand near the entrance to the Pub
lie Library.
Selling peanuts was his vocation
his vacation, or hobby. was the study
of languages, with which be put in
his spare time, studying in his stand
books borrowed from the library.
Lots of people thought him great
joke and there was many laugh at
him. But the peanut seller went on
studying languages.
Today he is q teacher of languages,
