Loyalty.
Loyalty Is that quality which
prompt a. person to bo true to tho
things hn undertakes. It mean def
inite direction, fixity of purpose,
steadfast!!?. Loyalty supplies pow
er, poise, purpose, ballast and works
for henlth and uncross. Nature helps
the loyal man. If you nro cureless,
slipshod, Indifferent, naturo assumes
that you wish to bo a nobody, nnd
grunts your desire. Success hinge on
'oynlty. I'.e true to your art, your
business, your employer, your
"house." Loyally I for the ono who
Is loyal. It 1 a finality woven
through the very fabric of one'
being, and never n thing apart. Loy.
ally makes the thing to which you
arc loyal yours. IHsloyalty removes
't from yoti. Whether fmyorm know
f our disloyalty Is really of little
'noim-nt either one wny or the other.
The real point Is, how does It nlTect
nirselves? Work Is for the worker.
Art Is for the artist. The menial Is
n man who Is disloyal to his work.
All useful service Is mixed to the
plane of art when love for task loy
ally Is fused with (he efTort. Krn.

Tho heavy growth of ling, famllbr

thousands of acres of the Montezuma

to develop n well-organized Industry.
In recent years the flag lias come
Into general use In cooperage shops.'
Where a good barrel Is required (ho
cracks nre made tight with a strip of
flag. Tho flag lu this vicinity Is of tho
right sort; It grows under water for
at least four month and Is largo and
soft.
The flag harvest Is nn nttrncllvo oc
cupation for men who know how to go
about tho task and live near the fields.
From n price of five to seven cents n
bundle, the prevailing prices for next
season's contract huvo advanced to
13 and 15 cents.
