CHRYSANTHEAIUMS
AND WEEDS

1t took two human generations T.
develop the chrysanthemum from I
weed into one of our most beautiful
and gorgeous flowers, according t.
recent article.
Left to itself it will go back to a
weed in five years.
A street railway expert, Peter
Witt, says that the same thing is
true of the human race. 1t improves
itself under good leadership. With
out a constant appeal to our ideal
ism we would relax and would soon
be living like brutes.
We are equally sure that the same
thing is true of business organiza-
tons. Leaders are essential to the
growth of the concern. Ideals must
be established and maintained. The
moment there is relaxation, progress
is halted.
Retail stores start up, thrive for a
time, change hands, start down hill,
and go out of business.
Industrial concerns grow to i'm
mense size, falter, and then go into
a rapid decline.
The chrysanthemum responds mar
velously under the proper care and
attention.
So does business.
Left to itself, the chrysonthemum
soon becomes a weed
