One year ago, Clarence Saunders, dc- j posed head of Piggly "Wiggly, moved j from his palatial home to a small! apartment in a hotel. He was bank rupt after a legal batt!e lasting sit months. Clarence Saunders then made his now famous prophecy: "In three years I will have made three million dollars. I can make a million dollars easily." He was laughed at. i But today Saunders has completed contracts for stores in TO cities. They will be scattered from Los Angeles' to Miami, Jallas to St. Louis, lie is operating stores in ten towns and cities outside of Memphis, where his eight parent stores are flourishing. Independent of Others And he is not operating on bor rowed money; the corporation bear ing his name has not one hank in debtedness; he has not depended on any person for advice or counsel. "In two more years I will have made that three million dollars," Saunders waid. "By the time I am 00 I will ave made $.VK),00u0(0." Ho said it with all the calmness with which he had formerly .negoti ated $".,000,000 deals for Tiggly Wig gly. lie seemed to believe he would do it. "It's easy," he said. "I am suc ceeding ot a faster rate than I would were I still head of i'iggly Wiggly. Ity 1050 I will be ten times as great success as I would if I had not ex perienced reverses in my fortune." A contest is Sauuders greatest delight. As a boy, he pays, he was "against everything." although rx trneiy sensitive. He is still com bative, lie loves font bait, wrestling, tennis, boxing and the other hardier sports. His keenest delight is in meeting the other fellow on even grounds and outmaneuvering him. Saunders says thnt he has never asked advice of anyone. He has not learned to be dependent. He refuses ti accept Christmas gifts or birthday presents. He never gives them. He has never written a Christmas enrd. He prefers to get for himself thfe things thnt he wants. And yet he Is not a money-seeker, He wivH he wants money, but he wants it. for what it will do rather than for personnl pleasures. 3'or pleasure he works. Night auto mobile' rides of from 20 to 40 miles have been his main recreation since he started his "comeback," Hut he say his greatest pleasure is work. Saunders ia free from the complac- II WET OF GROVE DIES AT 78 ents, Mr. Yancey. and Mrs. William Htl-y eat attitude of self-;itified men. He often takes a broom from an em ploye and sweeps an entire floor, or rearranges fruit In a display case, or tells a customer the merits of a 10- cent can of vegetables. Recommendations Ignored "Big ideas must be aggregations of smaller ideas, he says. A man may say, I will ronrtter the world, but if he basn t planned for every emer gency through attention to detail, bis big idea will not gi through. Saunders philosophy ts largely a "roll your own" attitude toward things in general. He never accepts or rejrets n man on another's recom mendation. Hp doesn't rend reconi' mendaiions anyway, be says. He silently "cunses out" himself more frequently than he chid an employe.
