We MUST HAVE vislOs

Among the many maxims set
down twenty centuries ago 5y
tive Sage with seven hundred
wives there is one which is
particularly applicable to the
people Of the Sllenandoah Valley
al this tine. Psrantheticallv
sn;i facetiously. it might be re-
msrh ed Chat the wisdom of Solo
mon has stood the test of these
Centuries. sud his marital nerve
has been without a parallel even
mong the deIudedfoliowers of
Joseph Smith ami his Mormon
successors.
Where there is no vision the
people perish" said tile wise man
Of the ages, and il is not SER
monizing too far sfield to use
this text as a basis for few re-
marks on the necessity for the
people of the Valley TO catch a
vision of its glorious future. aud
get in line with the organization
which are striving to materialize
this vision.
1t requires but a little elasticity
of the Imagination to see the
Shenandoah Valley utilizing the
l.tent energy of its scores of
streams in producing wares for
the markets of the world.
1t does not require the eyes OF
a prophet to see its fields de-
veloped to the highest state Of
cultivation. and the products OF
its farms feeding the multi
tudes in less favored sections. 1t
is not an exaggerated vision 10
picture this land of fame and
waiting fortune as the mecca Of
thousands of houe seekers who
will seek here on earth a scenic
heaven wherein Providence has
been prodigal with its gifts.
But we must have the vision to
bring these things TO pass. We
must have faith upon which TO
predicate our works. and we must
give evidence of having conf
ience in the future of our
country before we dare hope to
crystalline the confidence OF the
outside world in our section.
lie cannot expect to preach
pessimism and have optimistic
converts. We must believe, and
be so grounded in our belief that
others will catch our vision and
come here to share with US the
acres of diamonds which are
scattered abroad.
However just to possess vision
means nothing in our material
advancement. II must be cap
itslized 10 tangible wav, aud
just now golden opportunity is
pff.red to make substantial
that which you have visualized.
II Is offered through the Sheu.
andoad Valley Incorporated,
planned to promote the interests
of the Valley I; it is offered By
your Cha mber of Commerce,
your County commercial organ
ization and other like bodies, aud
il il up TO you to do your bit in
advancing the welfare of your
community.
Certainly we do not want to
perish" and just 80 sure we
must have VISION" And equally
true we must cooperate TO the
extent of our ability to pass the
big things which, the future
holds for as.
