Foresight and Courage

 Automobile values as at present established are largely due to the foresight and courage of MT. John N. Willys, the president of this institution.
 He foresaw the universal use of the automobile and had the courage to produce quality cars in larger quantities than they had ever before been produced. Steadily increasing production made possible savings and economics which steadily reduced costs and repeatedly established new values. Eight years ago, with net worth of little more than $50, ,0O0 this com- pany produced 465 cars. This year, with a net worth of over $6S, 100000 we must produce over 200, 1000 cars to fill our dealers. contracts.

Patriotism Gone Mad

II is one of the trusms of metaphysics
that no man and no nation has ever
achieved n great success without some
measure of self coucet. This is only
another way of saying that no one can ac-
complish any big thing unless he is firmly
convinced that he is fitted for the task.
But when this self Conceit is carried to its
logical end IL becomes kind of insanity,
lust as the extreme of all logic is folly Ger
many Just now seems to he suffering from
this form of insanity. There are extremists

through the patriotic literature of Germany
will find it full of the assumption that the
German people are superior to any other on
the globe, and that the German nation mas n
work to perform that must be done regard
less of the wishes of the other races for
the reason that German civilization is the
only civilization worth while. There are
Germans who have gone so far as TO ap-
propriate God to themselves ana t3 lnti-
mate that He hears no prayers not uttered
