We natunilly like a gfmd loser and
wo despise the winner who sets up
his little "alibi". When an athletic
or debating team comes home with a
cry of fruud or prejudice in decisions,
one thinks of throwing dust to cloud
the real Issue. When a man cane; back

not make a good officer.
In 1912 Taft Jokingly referred to
himself as the worst beaten muu in
history In running for the presidency.
Later in Seattle a mail in a crowd
yelled. "Mr. Taft, 1 intend to vide for
you for president again” Quickly Taft
called back wltb that Inimitable chuck*
to of his, "My friend, 1 hope you will
have belter luck than that.”
Do your best or a little belter than
ou think your tn-st In the light of life
nd having done that if you are licked.
take your beating standing upright and ;
never dodge or take refuge u rider some ■
excuse. Both sides cannot always win, i
I frequently console myself with the.
philosophy of Mr. Dooley when he was :
worsted in a combat, "We are not al*
ways doomed to sueclss." But I am j
greatly concerned lest 1 shrink from!
future contests or try tu trim to avoid 1
an Issue. That is an evidence of cow
ardice which In Itself is damning and
well-nigh fatal to success.
Did it ever occur to you that the 1

When you are entertaining a strong

praises the order ami quiet prevailing

A crowd of youngsters on the front cam

You sometimes hear the remark that quality standards in commodities do not compare with those
of other days* Some men even have the idea that clothes do not stack up in quality and workmanship
as they used to. They say the old quality standards are gone.
But are they} The man who wears Fashion Park and Kuppenheimer good clothes will say “no."
There s a pleasant surprise in store, here, for the man who sighs for the quality of old.
Fashion Park and
Kuppenheimer Good Clothes
reflect the integrity, the thoroughness, the skill and the quality of the past
that is new.
It took years to learn how to produce clothes in the Fashion Park and Kuppenheimer way. That
is why these clothes are pre-eminent in all characteristics that the man seeks who wants to be well
dressed and yet wants the most that is to be had for his expenditure. Clothes goodness and clothes
