nesSee senator, land there have al

who looked to the future. If the re-
dictionaries had had their way in the
beginning of our government we prob
ably would not have been a republic If
they had had their way the republic
would never have been enlarged.

Hghtened self-intereSt, every dictate
of commercial and industrial advan-

peace, requires the establishment of

Editorial
A store that is dishonest
is more to be pitied than
censured, because only
ignorance will cause dis
honesty, and in the end
failure is bound to over
take it.
Take dishonesty from a
purely selfish standpoint.
If people come to discount
your statements or your
methods it requires three
or four times the effort to
accomplish anything that
it does if your friends and
patrons have faith in you.
Again, can you imagine
the feeling of a store own
er who honestly plans for
a BIG event only to have
it "fall fiat" because peo-
pie have lost faith in his
honesty and good inten-
tons.
After all, it seems to
