COMING BACK
Business is surely coming back now
good and strong. It seems more like
it used to be before the war. Fear
and trembling is giving place to confidence
and boldness in trade.
This coming back to normal conditions
is one of the things that pleases
those who have been discouraged by
the evident lack of vim and energy In
the channels of trade and commerce.
The cause of most of the distress
?irwl fonv /1-f flm im<f I wolvp months
was a false notion of hard times.
Somehow peoplci got it into their heads
that the times were hard and it appeared
as if this notion could never
he dislodged. In the war time some
men bought heavily of things they did
not need. Many did this ,as a result
of their disposition to adventure in
search of quick fortune. When things
all at once began to tumble and they
were left with large supplies of
things on hand they could not dispose
of at exactly what they cost, it faced
these people with something they did
not get over very soon. Those who
managed to weather the storm came
out with a deadly fear of repeating
their experience, and as a consequence
their business dealings were ever after
that timid and comparatively nothing.
Hard times of the past year have
been a myth, and this fact is now
known by many who for :\ time cried
out the words more loudly than others.
A merchant some time ago argued
that times were hardest tlien than he
had ever known. One present differed
from him and asked him to look
up his cash book of exactly one year
before that. He did. He was surprised
to find that lie had more cash
that day than lie did on that same
day a year ago. Others have tested
it out this way and find that they are
doing a much better business now
tli.'in they did at any tiniee in 1921.
As a man thinks in such matters
he is apt to be. There is a growing
volume of business at this time.
Those who have gone ahead and kept
prepared all through this deflation
period are now in exactly the right
shape to do something for themselves
and others. Those who thought times
were hard and would never get any
better and thus sat down on the stool
of do-nothing, let their opportunities
slip away from them and they are
now outstripped by the other man
who thought he knew better. He will
now le.irn that the other man was
on the light track.
It is now high time that the old excuse
of hard times be set aside as entirely
obsolete. It certainly has no business
in our affairs now. It will not have
in the future unless we lose our serine.-;
as we almost did not long since.
Business is coming back and coining
back fast, but it was really here
all the time.
o
Men are carrying the gland proposition
entirely too far and are forgetting
that mind may have more to
do with the glands than the glands
have to do with the body. There
must be a source of energy somewhere
for these ductless glands, as
they are c/dled, and so far there has
been nothing brought out to show
that the mind cannot exert a powerful
influence on them Ut increase their secretions
into the blood or stop their
"work entirely. There is too much
mystery connected yet with this question
for anybody to try to form any
decided opinion about it.
o
Men are indeed born equal and
have an equal right to the joys, pleasures
and happiness that may be .attained.
There is a difference, howeven*,
in the ability and capabilities of
men, and in this nature did not make
all men equal, as daily experience
proves. This is what makes the difference
in the condition of men and
always will make difference.
o
It not only costs money to construct
good roads to begin with but it takes
money to keep the roads in repair
after iliev are constructed. It is aiS
well enough to have good roads built,
hut it is better to build them and then
keep them up in good repair. The
first cost is not all we must figure
on in this road matter.
o
William Smith, the news agent, has
one thing to say to all comers who
want to knock Conway and that is
that Conway never tics anybody down,
They do not have to stay, he says.
o
The men who spend their lives
envying others and trying to chang(
natural conditions in which they fim
themselves placed, will die, still with
out hope.
o
Reputation has a whole lot to d<
with the success or failure of a mat
and yet reputation is not always i
true index to what a man is.
