Clarence Saunders
(By XEA Service)
JEMPHIS, Teun., May lo. 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-

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. Hp tries to fear down his
own ideas before ho puts them Into
effect, "
, He never tells jokes because lie
does not. remember them long pnongh
to repeat them, and be has no fimo
for originating them. He shuts out
of bis mind everything he doesn't
need to remember.
, He likes a strain of music or waft
of penfiime to Tcarh hissi when lie i
working. Noise doesn't annoy hint.
"And they fold inn I didn't even
have my own name a year ago," hn
smiles.
