We Cannot Stand Still

By J. M. GIBSON
General Manager, Calgary Retail

IF there is no forward movement, we must slide back, as the power of gravity ever grips where motion has ceased. The business, great or small, that comes to a stand-still with a smile of self-satisfaction is heading for the shelf of dry rot. Every business must strive in its present year to beat that of the past, to beat the turnover, the service, the public good-will and the net results. The very strife after these ends develops the initiative, broadens the aspect and reproduces better men; therefore do not hesitate, never stop, but always keep climbing.
