In the rush of activities of lif q how little we realize the unselfishness and surrender of a whole selfhood to a single idea to make possible a chosen career! All day long that lonely lighthouse, bleached and battered by years of storm, stands firmly upon a bleak coast and makes no sign, but in the dark nights every other minute it flashes its clear light afar over the wild, angry sea. Brighter than the lighthouse service is the revelation of the love of a woman, who lives her life through her man. This store has its own life and there was never a better time to show it than in these days when, like a lighthouse, we shall burn an upright light to keep people off the rocks and the shifting sands of speculation and away from the dangers of the mismarking of prices in the face of a changing market. We could very well prove, if necessary, that we shall keep our friends by seeing to it that .cy shall not pay too much for what they buy. .
