Help her grow;

Let the fellows count on you;
You’ ll feel better when its thru—
Don’t you know.
I f you want to make a hit,
Get a name;
If the other fellow’s it,
Who’ s to blame?
Spend your money in the town,
Where you pull the sheckles down;
Give the mail concerns a frown,
That’ s the game.
If you’re used to giving knocks,
Change your style.
Throw bouquets instead of rocks,
For a while;
Let the other fellow roast;
Shun him as you would a ghost;
Meet his hammer with a boost
And smile.
When a stranger from afar
Comes along
Tell him who and what you are.
Make it strong;
Needn’ t llatter, never bluff.
Tell the truth for that’s enough.
Join the boosters, they’re the stuff.

received a baptism o f from a few
inches to 24 ft. o f water, coveting
an area of from 12 to 15 square
miles of factories, beautiful stores
and residences, piling lighter formed
buildings against the more sub
stantial ones, until certain districts
could scarcely be recognized. Streets
were impassible, and what had been
the pride of a study hard-working
people, representing a generation
ol effort, was in a few houts a
tangled mass o f debris.
N o pen will ever be able to des
cribe the horror of tbe nights ol
Tuesday .March 25 ,and Wednesday,
March 26 . Throughout the residence
as well as the business section, the
people were caught in their houses,
stores and shops, and were driven
from the second floor o f the resi
dences to the attices, and from the
attics to the roofs.
Tuesday and W ednesday nights
rain fell itt torreuts, and the city
was in darkness, except for the
light ol fires that lightened up tbe
heavens; and the roar o f the flood,
the cry o f the distrsessed for help,
the pow npour of rain, the rageing
of fires, made tip a scene that will
neve be forgotten.
Thursday the flood began to
subside, aud the rain turned to snow
and freezing cold, and the rescuing
o f the people went vigorously for
ward. W ithin two weeks 75 percent
o f the factories have resumed opera
tion, and while our factory was
entirely cut of the flood, and we
Were able to resume making and
shipping out product within a few
days, our offices were under twelve

re-established.
Every man. woman and child
w ho could work in Dayton has
worked, and are facing the future
with a fortitude that must win
back what they have lost, and
while the property loss has been
estimated at 100 millon, the loss of
life was remarkably small, and will
not exceed 250 lives.
K indly say for D ayton— she will
make good every obligation she has
made, her people are w orking as a
unit as never before, and will come
out o f this a better city than ever.
Ninety per cent o f her factories are
now able to fill their orders, and
what we most need is not charity,
bnt your orders, to keep out tactory
people em ployed.
