‘ ‘fFeW of us are able to do things just right
every day. We are tempted to re-adjust our
standard of excellence to meet competition or
changing business conditions. We admire the
man who sets his standard high and successful-
ly resists the temptation to lower it. Others
may adulterate their products and shake a few
customersloose with the bait of a lower price, _
but the man of high moral courage holds fast'
to his ideals.”
The first function of business is to perform a
service at a profit. We are not making head-,
way unless business can be successful and con-
tribute to social, progress at the same time.
