A habit can be wired for sound rj THE days of high bicycles and pre-streamline mustaches, a creature of habit was supposed to be some horrible example like the village drunkard. Now the experts insist the entire human race, from childhood up, is guided by habit good or bad. The rule applies also, we believe, to corporations like us. For example: Our Standard Symphony Hour and Standard School Broadcast have won wide recognition. People like our way of saying "Thank you" with fine music to the public which keeps us in business. Their letters tell us so. Recently Phi Beta, women's music fraternity, said so with the award of a bronze plaque. A western composer said so in a message telling us the door to his future had been opened by a scholarship won after "recognition" on the Standard Symphony Hour. Now, our radio programs are non-commercial strictly with out blurb or buy-appeal. So are these chats on our accomplish menu and problems. Yet wt feel entitled to suggest that wt would never have achieved a reputation for the best in music but for a lifelong babit a habit of rejecting anything but the best in our commercial field. Ideals, too, are habit-forming. Standard Oil Company of California Herbert and Eliza Russell, who came to this valley in 1881.
