South Sea Story A merchant heard that the natives of a South Sea island had more gold than they knew what to do with, so he de cided to help them out. He sailed to the island with a shipload of onions, some thing the natives had never tasted. De lighted, the islanders exchanged a ship load of gold for the shipload of onions. A business rival of the first merchant was enraged when he heard of this deal, and immediately set sail for the island with a cargo of garlic. He was sure that if his rival had been treated so well by the natives because he had brought onions to the island, he would receive even more gold for his contribution of garlic. True enough, the natives were overjoyed with the garlic. When the merchant asked for gold in return, they would think of giving him nothing so common. They turned over their prize possession to him—a shipload of onions. Stop That Cold! Cover your cough, do the same with your sneeze. Don’t pass on the cold that is making you wheeze. Cet plenty of rest, from your friends keep away. They don’t speak of colds when they say “Let us s-pray.” The Pleasant Word It is the pleasant worker who suc ceeds. No one can do his best in the midst of nagging, argument and worry. Therefore, work as cheerily as you can, and do not put even a straw in the way of others. There are always plenty of rocks and pebbles and holes along each one’s path, but the pleasant word al ways makes the going easier. A man should be careful never to tell tales of himself to his own disadvant age; people may be amused and laugh at the time, but they will be remember ed and brought up against him upon subsequent occasion.—Johnson. Buy Easter Seals Now! A colonel passing near the stables noticed several privates, each of whom was holding a lump of sugar. Making mental note of the fact that these men must have a great love of animals, he said, “I suppose you will give the sugar to the pet of the regiment.” “Not on your life,” replied one re cruit. “The sugar goes to the one that kicked the sergeant.” Continuous Service Record Congratulations to the following em ployees who by their faithfulness and devotion to duty have reached enviable milestones in their service with Mar shall Field & Co.. 25 years continuous service (March ’46) Clarence G.
