Accuse American Businessmen Of Being Responsible For Radicalism And They Would Indignantly Deny The Accusation. Yet, In One Fundamental Sense, They Are Responsible. They Are Responsible In The Sense That They Have Utterly Neglected To Take Part In The Work And The Organization Which Precede The Choosing Of Candidates For Political Office. Local Political Organizations All Over The Land Are Conducted And Controlled, As A Rule, By Politicians.... Businessmen Have Shirked Such Responsibilities, Leaving An Untrammeled Field To Others Less Capable Of Carrying On The Administration Of Government.

Cheerfulness Is Among The Most Laudable Virtues. It Gains You The Good Will And Friendship Of Others. It Blesses Those Who Practice It And Those Upon Whom It Is Bestowed.

A Big Business Man Was Telling Henry Ford About A Coach Driver Of Super-expertness With His Whip. The Driver Was Telling How He Could Flick A Fly Off His Horse's Ear With His Whip-and, A Fly Alighting Just Then, He Promptly Did So. Next He Spied A Grasshopper Beside The Road, And He Flicked It Off With Equal Dexterity. A Little Further Along The Road The Passenger Noticed An Insect On A Bush, And Nudged The Driver To Get Him. Not On Your Life, Replied The Master Of The Whip. That There Insect Is A Hornet Sitting On His Nest With An Organization Behind Him. I Leave Him Alone.

Anything That Inspires Unselfishness Makes For Our Ennoblement. Christmas Does That. I Am All For Christmas.
