FOUR PRODUCTIVE FACTORS
THOUGHTS; It is well for u,s to realize that we are facing crucial conditions
that require deliberate and wise thinking. Thoughts are dynamic
forces that often shape our destiny. It is with this idea in mind
that we think for the interest of our friends and relieve them
of cares and worries.
LOVE: LOVE is the fundamental principle of life, and in order for us
to reap the fruit of love, we must demonstrate a kind and help¬
ful attitude towards others. This is our daily practice in all
business relations.
ACTIONS: OUR every act is based upon a high motive to render the most
skillful service at the most reasonable price*. We guarantee
always an extra measure of service and more considerate terms.
“Actions speak louder than words.’
TRUST: WE are mindful of the trust and confidence placed in us by our
friends and these factors stimulate us to higher endeavors and
enable us to render a more beautiful and satisfactory seivice to
all.
“Four things a man must learn to do
If he would make his record true;
To THINK without confusion clearly;
To LOVE his fellow men sincerely;
To TRUST in God and Heaven securely.”

have beeri planned for Middle-
ton as well as a new lunch-
room. Four portable classrooms

Perry Harvey- official of the
Citizens committee charged
that overcrowded conditions
have resulted in split sessions
which are a serious threat to
the Negro community in that
they contribute to juvenile de-
linquency.
W. H. Gordon, local under-
taker on the committee said
working ‘parents cannot super-
vise their children until 12 In
