embark upon the eternal quest for
fortune.
One serious-m:nded chap, came
to the conclusion that success
awaited the man who settled down
and plodded along. always with an
eye for the future.
The other, a more adventurous
type. felt the call of the sea. They
shook hands and separated; the one
to settle down and the other to visit
strange lands.
Fortune smiled on NJ r. Moiler,
now one of the directors Of Susque-
hanna University and one Of the
most successful pipe organ builders
in the United States, the youth who
decided to settle down and plod
along. But the tickle Dame frowned
upon Peter Moller, who went down
to the sea and finally left him in
Los Angeles--penniless.
Both are now approaching the
age of 20. The organ magnate
heard of his brothers plight, wired
him money and is now preparing for
a happy reunion. Friends of the
brothers from all parts Of the United
