They plod along without taking time to read a newspaper or a book. The business man, however, rides a swift steed and, you must notice, often signs his letters, "yours in haste." All the time he lives in the center of operative energy, is generally in an eager mood and in a highly oxygenized air, which stirs his blood and brain fast to energetic, quickening action of benefit to the city and its people. Oftentimes the movements of a conscientious merchant in the pressure of circumstances are an inspiration to others. Signed May S, 1021.
