lay fog bound in lower bay Of New
York harbor waiting for the clearing
weather TO permit it to sail up the
bay to its dock What everyone
does not know is that Sousa at the
same time wrote a single verse for
his famous march. Those words
were published in an arrangement
for mixed voices and for male voices
Here, merely as a matter of record
are the original words as set down
by Mr.. Sousa:
Hurrah for the Flag of the Free!
May it wave as our standard
forever,
The gem Of the land and the sea,
The Banner of the Right!
Let despots remember the day
When our fathers, with mighty
endeavor,
Proclaimed as they marched to the
fray,
That by their might, and by their
right, it waves forever!

The Big Things.

Theodore Roosevelt once said of a
consular agent, whose ability he
recognized and whose friendship he
priced:
"If man disappoints me the first
time it is his fault. If he dis
appoints me the second time it is
mine. / never blame a man who
fails from accident - He is
kindly, courteous and successful in
all the small things but he fell down
in the one big thing that came his
way"
How true that is today as it was in
the days when Mr. Roosevelt occu-
pied the White House But how
many men measure up to the former
presidents standards?
So many of us fail to realize that
when we disappoint out superiors,
we lose their confidence, and when
we find what our failure to meet the
expectations of others has brought
about, we are very apt to lose our
self respect, our grip on ourselves.
The two thoughts expressed by
Mr. Roosevelt link up together. Dis
appointing those who have confid-
enee in us that we can do the right
thing at the right time and falling
down on the one big thing that comes
our way.
Inability to recognize the big thing
when it does come is the fault that
is inherent with most of US and that
causes us to fall down. Most any
man can be successful in small
things, little daily detail, routine
work, but the man who gets ahead
and rises above the ordinary type is
he who sees the big things when it
presents itself.
You can pick out the men in this
community who have been success
full. Study their characteristics and
most of them you will find to be very
similar to other mems. But they
have that one trait hat has caused
them to forge ahead-the ability to
see their opportunities when they
come and to make the most of them.

iably holds true in life.
The best ditch digger is the one
who has been digging bitches all of
his life-has made it a business and
knows the quickest and best way to
do the job.
The best doctor is generally the
doctor who has studied the most,
has had the most experience and has
made the greatest effort to keep
pace with the advancement of
medical science.
The same is true Of any profess
sion, any busiess, any trade.
70 be proficient, we must "know
our business" We must make a
study of it and devote all of our
energies to making the most of what
we have.
Look around you and observe the
men and women in this community
who are regarded as the best in their
line.
They are the people who have Civ
en- the best they have to their chos-
en- work.
1t makes no difference whether
they are men who labor with their
hands or men who are skilled in
some profession; whether they are
women whose chief aim in life is to
have a good home or women who
have chosen the business world for
their activities.
To be recognized as a leader in
whatever you are doing is honor
enough for any person, whether it be
digging a good ditch or skill in one
Of the professions.
Proficiency in whatever you chose
for a livelihood carries with it a Ger.
tain sense of satisfaction and il
ought to be recognized more than il
is.

Sousa Wrote One Verse For His
Famous March.

1t goes without saying that every
man, woman and child in the United
States can, with the help Of the tune,
repeat the words of the first verse of
the national anth8m, "The Star
Spangled Banner" and it also goes
without saying that virtually every
man, woman and child in the United
States can hum or whistle the tune
of "Stars and Stripes Forever" by
reclamation the national march. But
it is n queer quality Of our Ameri-
canism that scarcely a man, woman
or child in America can repeat the
third verse of "The Star Spangled
Banner"-or the second, for that
matter, and few people know that
words ever were written for "Stars
and Stripes Forever" in spite of the
fact that more than two million cop
les Of the sheet music and five million
copies Of the record of the famous
selection have been sold in America
alone.
As everyone knows, Lieut. Com.
John Philip Sousa wrote 1.-THE Stars
and Stripes Forever" when he was at
sea, returning to America from a
long visit abroad. AS a matter
fact the greater part of the original
theme came to Sousa on a sleety
foggy night in December when the
liner upon which he was returning

Better Business.

Better business methods will come
about largely through organization
The business man who belongs to
his trade association and attends its
meetings regularly not alone profits
himself, but his customers profit
also.
He keeps in stride with the new
ideas that are developing in his par
ticular line. He learns new devices
to cut down the overhead and thus
make it possible to reduce his retail
prices.
Business men who follow this pol.
icy have higher standards because
association with their fellow dealers
teaches them that a new standard is
coming into business.
1t is no longer the rule that the
buyer should beware. Instead, the
seller is beginning to realize his re-
sponsibility to the buyer-that a fair
profit is all he is entitled to. If he
takes more, the buyer will find him
out because his competitor is doing
business on a new ethical basis.
Every profession is organized to
maintain the high ethical standard
that it aims to follow. Business
men are seeing the light and follow
ing the same path.
The auctioneers of one state are
the latest recruits to this new move
ment that is general throughout the
country
The associations object is to pro-
mote harmony, cooperation and
good fellowship among those who
follow that business. They hope TO
advance their calling by placing its
services to the public on a higher
plane
That is the keynote in all business
organization-to raise the standard
and thus remove all doubt of ques-
tionable practices
The buyer is being considered as
never before 1t is a movement that
should be encouraged.
The ahbi squad is in training so as
