THE KIND OF COURAGE
BUSINESS MEN NEED

WHEN Col. Lindbergh told a
w few of his intimate associates
that he had decided to fly over to
Paris, they told him in substance
that he was crazy, that he had bet
ter wait for more favorable wea-
Their conditions, etc., but after
Lindbergh had assured himself
that the Esprit of st. Louis" was
as near perfect as mortal man
could make it, he had the courage
to say 81 am going!"- he did.
When this same young man, a
few weeks ago, went down to the
field one morning, again assuring
himself that his ship was in per-
feet condition, he said, 81 am GO
ing to Mexico City!"- he did,
There are two kinds of courage.
One kind is typifed by the man
who ignorantly takes unwarrant-
ed chances, trusting to luck; the
other kind is that which this grand
young man, Lindbergh, has in a

WINNING OUT OF TOWN
TRADE

THERE is sharp competition now
= between town centers like Ken
newick to get their share of pat
ronage from people living in near
by localities, and to keep it from
going elsewhere. 1t is a race to see
which shall give the best prices
and service. Communities like ours
stand a good chance to win out,
because the expense of distribution
is not so heavy as in large cities.
1t costs less to operate store in
a community like ours.
This competition calls not mere
ly for enterprise and advertising,
but all employees of these stores
need to feel that their success de-
ponds on their own efforts. If they
are working hard to extend the
trade of their employers, they will
benefit by the increase of business.
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1928-01-12

bundance-a courage backed by
intelligent, thoughtful preparation.
We have entered new year.
While it is continuation, it is,
nevertheless, a beginning, a start
ing over a road where we will un-
doubtedly encounter obstacles as
did Lindbergh; but while he gazed
across the seas, while he dreamed
and hoped for success, his courage
was based on the confidence he had
in "We"-in his ship and in him
self.
AS you enter upon this year,
men, our hope is that you may be
imbued with the kind Of courage
that enabled Lindbergh to become
master of conditions, instead of
permitting conditions to master
him. In other words, fear not!
Place your trust in eve" and the
percentage will be larger in your
favor.

&c. l.. Babcock, Pres. Washington
Good Roads Association.
THE construction of good roads
i and continued Improvement OF
state roads will help towards
bringing the people of our state to
the realization of the magnitude
and possibilities of our common
wealth.
When the roads are fully devel-
oped and the means of transporta-
ton made easy and expeditions for
it's citizens they will get a broader
view.
Nothing does more to bring a.
bout the feeling of good fellowship
than to get acquainted with your
neighbor and good roads make ev-

When the state has completed
the highway system and extended
roads to connect with all commun-
tiles of the state, then will we have
perfect unity of feeling and good
fellowship thruout the extent OF
our broad land.
Washington, the father of our
country, was an engineer, trail
builder and a pathfinder and it is
particularly fitting that the state
named after him should be the first
in constructing broad highways
that we may commemorate his
name in such work.

The American people take the
keenest interest in the men who
serve in any position of peril, and
they do not like to ask them to
enter any service unless everything
possible is done to remove dan

the wonderful mechanical genius
that made any such marvel as the
submarine possible, will be able tc
devise some plan by which people
could be rescued from them if they
sink to the bottom of the sea.
