UNCLE DUDI,EY'S COLUMN
KEEP GOING!

Everybody. expects 1927 to be pros
porous year, but that is, no reason why
anyone should slacken his efforts. That
is the. one thing that should be avoid
ed.
The situation calls for energetic and
persevering production on the part Of
all people, regardless of how great or
how humble their station in life may he.
We can not expect great prosperity
to come to us If we leave the burden Of
production to few, nor can we expect
confidence to be maintained if idleness
and shiftlessness prevail where thrift
and energy are possible.
We have reached the crest Of our
wave Of depression which follows every
great war. and are descending safely
on the other side.
What we want to do now is to keep
going until we float into the harbor of
commercial sanity and permanent pros
perity.
Production, conservation and the
square deal in business will get us there.
