SI In relating his life experien
ces, the late Thomas E. Wat
son said: “While studying law
I worked on a farm for $8.00 a
month. I thought it great fun,
and would do it again rather
than loaf, rust or commit apos
tasy of any sort. I lived for
several years after my admis
sion to the bar on small fees
and small feed.” That willing
ness to work, even for little pay,
in preference to being idle, has
contributed largely to the suc
cess of many men who accom
plish things.—Cuthbert Leader.

A Thirty Year Record
TUTORE than thirty years ago, from some good
grocer, the first pound of White House Coffee
was sold.
More than thirty years ago, in some good home,
the first pot of White House Coffee was brewed.
That first pound of fine White House Coffee has
since then multiplied by the sale of many millions
of pounds.
That first “White House Coffee” home is now
counted by cities of homes wherein White House
is the family coffee.
It isn’t the birthdays of White House Coffee but
the unvarying fine quality of White House Coffee
that has multiplied that first pound by millions.
White House Coffee is the kind of coffee that
multiplies its friends. It is the coffee berry per
fectly roasted—at its best—and always the same.
Just try a pound.

WHITE HOUSE
I succeeded by continuous
hard work, and by following the
maxim, “Pay as you go, and
never go an inch further than
you can pay.” I was tempted
often enough to venture out on
a limb after a cluster of fruit,
as every business man is, but
I stuck to the maxim.
If I was a crank about get
ting cash for my lumber I was
just as cranky about paying
my bills on the instant, and I
haven’t got over it. In my early
days, when I first began to deal
with banks, I was often asked if
I would renew my notes on their
expiration. My answer always
was that when a note of mine
j fell due it would be paid in full,
i and I lived up to that platform.
| If I were giving advice to the
young men it would be to be a
crank on payin gbills. It is not
alone that it gives you credit
with others, it is the self disci
pline that it promotes.
As for hard work, I did it to
begin with because I wanted to
get on. I do it still for the best
of reasons—because I enjoy it,
and because onpe a man begins
to let up, he slacks away too
rapidly. Self indulgence is a
|reaoherous vice. Give it an
inch, and it will take a mile.
Hard work can cure more ills,
physical, mental, and spiritual,
than all the drugs in the phar
macopoeia.—Robert R. Sizer,
head of the New York lumber
firm of Robert R. Sizer & Co., in
the New York Globe.
The foregoing was handed to
the editor by Mr. E. A. Barnett.
It’s a good rule for all of us to
strive to live by, should we not
be able always to reach the
mark. Had all the people of
Wilkes county stuck close to it
in 1919 and 1920 there would be
a hundred men on “easy street”,
in the county today where there
is now but one.—Washington
News-Reporter.
Cranks are not to be dispised.
Some / of the world’s greatest
achievements have come thru
geniuses the worlr has seen fit
to call cranks. Oh, for a sweep
of debt-paying sentiment—for
cranks on paying bills. Because
a debtor cannot pay a debt is no
reason why he should not try,
and keep on trying until i tis
paid in full.
Many people who cannot pay
their debts now are going to
keep on trying until they do pay
them. Some others are taking
advantage of the depressed con
ditions not to try to pay at all,
while some others could pay if
they would, and stil lothers are
taking short turns to defraud
their creditors of honest debts.
No one has any confidence in
the religion or the good inten
tions of any man or woman who
does not "come clean,” so to
speak, in their obligations. And
we know church menvers and
others who are not “coming
clean.”—The Madisonian.

We do not have any more res
pect for a preacher who gets up
in the pulpit and abuses his fel
low-man than we do any other
person. If they know anything
about religion it is their place
to tell it, and when they tell all
they know then stop and make
out a long sermon with criticism
and abuse. People didn’t used
to talk about people, but explain
ed what they knew about the
Bible, and by kind words, en
deavored to get them all to live
up to it. This is why there was
more religion and fewer people
: going to hell in those days. You
can’t drive persons to heaven.—

IF ADVERTISING STOPPED
Some people have always ar-
ued that advertising adds to
the cost of goods, and that the
firm that cuts out this form of
expense could sell cheaper-
It it interesting to think just
what would happen if all bus
iness firms stopped advertising.
The result would be that enter
prising and successful stores
the ones that get a good trade
because they serve the public
efficiently, would be unable to
hold their position.
A store of that kind could
not show enterprise in attract
ing the public because the pub
lic would not know what it was
doing. People would buy in a
haphazard way, largely of the
stores that happened to be the
nearest to them. If the enter
prising stores attempted to
handle some big lot at low pri
ces, the public would not know
that the goods were there, and
the sale would not be a suc
cess. This would discourage a
man from special attempts to
serve the public, and he would
run along in a routine way.
The tendency would be for a
lot of small stores to spring up
and get the trade away from
the enterprising people who
now advertise freely. The pub
lic would not know that one
store was better than another,
and a man could charge high
prices, and the people would
not have the store advertising
by which they could tell what
the prices ought to be.
Merchants would find that it
did not pay to hold special sales
as the public would not notice
them if they were held. The
constant stream of trade that
has been flowing through the
enterprising stores would then
dwindle down. When a store
sees its volume of trade fall off
the charges per article for re
tail distribution has to be in
creased. The cost of distribu
ting stuff could be expected to
double under such a system and
there would be lack of special
opportunities by which thrifty
buyers now save money.—Tal
lapoosa Journal.

THE LONG EVENINGS
The long evenings of late
fall and Winter have never been
popular. Housewives dislike
them because they interfere
with sewing, and other tasks,
for which daylight is preferable
The young crowd are sorry to
see the sun quit so early and
darken the football field. The
men folks regret to see their
automobiles run out short, and
those who manage business con
cerns feel that work is never
so efficiently done by artificial
light.
Familes do not gather under
the evening lamp at this sea
son as they used to. For many
of the modern folk, the even
ings are simply the time when
social season reaches its height
ajid there is something; doing
every night. They get what
they are looking for.
I Others find that the long ev
enings furnish new opportuni-
I ties for study and self improve
ment. Each winter brings to
them some, increase of knowl
edge or broader intelligence in
their own occupation. Time is
a form of capital and it should
be used thoughtfully.—Green
