KEEP YOUR PROMISE

KEEP YOUR PROMISE
IN BUSINESS the man whose rating
= among his associates 10 the highest
II the man who keeps his promises.
Promises to pay. Of course. must
be kept. II they are not there II ne
more credit for the gentleman who
makes them.
But business IL not all promises to
pay. There are promises to enter into
contracts promises to have shipments
ready at certain time; promises to
make business engagements
And the man who Is more prodigal
Of promises than he is Of remember
Ing to keep them soon is regarded
with distrust and suspicion
A man who has been Immensely sue
cessful In the manufacturing business
is regarded by his associates as 'hardi
boiled" in the matter or promises
1t Is almost impossible to get one
out of him. But once his promise ID
given, performance Is assured, even,
though the performance may mean a
heavy financial loss to him.
He has discovered that II lis just
as profitable to him to keep his prom-i
ises at par as II Is to keep the stock
Of his concern at par.
You may not be In business, or con-
nected with business, save in the ca
pacity Of minor employee
But you will find that the value of
your promises is just as important to
you as the value Of your employers
promises are to him.
You will learn If you are observant,
that you are judged not by making
promises but by keeping them. And
If after many trials your promises are
found to be good you will be trusted.
an excellent start
1t Is always well to consider the
matter of promise before you make
1t. This applies as much to a prom,
Use to take lunch at certain time Of
a certain day as to fulfil an impor-
tam business engagement.
If you make no promises that you
are not reasonably sure to keep, you
will come to regard your word as
worth something. If your friends,
know that they win nor need to call
you up and remind you Of promise,
your value will increase In their
eyes.
The Esomise-brccber is. a word
breaker, and word breakers have no
standing. Think well of your word,
and you will keep your promises. And
as soon as this is established the
world will think well of you.

WINTER MORNING
BY WILL M. MAUPIN

WHEN the frost is on the fodder,
~ And Jingle in the air;
When the pumpkins have been gath
cred
And the corn is shucked with care:
When the grease is on the griddle
And the batters in the crock,
Life's worth living winter mornings
When you rise at Q O'clock
When the cakes are on the griddle,
And the sirup's in the jug:
When the coffee has been settled,
And the fire is warm and snug;
When you smell the breakfast ready,
And you hear the "get up" knock.
There's lot Of JOY in living.
Though you rise at O'Clock.
When the buckwheats reach the table,
Mountain high and piping hot:
When with strip and with butter
They glide to the proper spot;
When you've eaten all you're able,
Full of bucks" your wife has sent,
You can hike OF to the office
Full Of grub and sweet content.
Talk to me of pate de fol gras!
Talk of sauces, buildings, piesl
Talk Of table d'hote and cuisine
Not from me they'll get prize.
Give to me the smoking buckwheats,
Stacked up high and piping hot;
Maple strip, golden butter
All, that hits the proper Spotl
