An Oriental Rug Event Unprecedented in MagnitudJm He Who Will Learn of None But Himself Hath a Fool for a Master is a proverb which may be as timely now as it was years ago when it first appeared. The schoolmasters who helped us most were not those who simply "heard our Jessons,' but those who kindly asked us to think and understand the things that at the first we repeated almost as if we were parrots. Business or pleasure is not to be found in killing flies. We must go to school as long as we live and make time and save it up for study. Napoleon made maps of battlefields when a schoolboy and used common pins stuck on the papers for soldiers and their positions in the field; and when he came to power never retained a lazy, negligent or ignorant General. In .this big warship time we must do war work nnd Liberty Bond work; and if this big merchandise institution of yours and ours is not better some where today than it was yesterday, it is somebody's fault. And as for the stocks of merchandise each day must bring in a train of carloads that only a locomotive can pull. Yours for the Liberty Loan, Signed' October ?, 1'jA.
