Telephone rates have gone up far less
than most other things you buy. Actu-
ally, the telephone takes a much smaller
percentage of the family budget than
before the war.
Day and night, seven days a week,
the telephone is at your service. Quickly,
easily and at small cost it keeps you in
touch with everything and everybody,
everywhere.

Frederick, Okla. — When the
tornado siren began wailing dur-
ing the night, Dan Largin sleep-
ily discarded his pajamas and
groped for his clothing before
making a dash for the storm cel-
lar. He didn’t find them, but took
comfort in the fact that only the
family, was in the cellar and there
were no lights. As he settled down
however in rushed some neighbors
—with a light.
If you were going to talk to
young men and women who are
going out into the world after
completing school, what would
you say? Here is what your col-
umnist told graduating classes this
season: ®
The quetion uppermost in your
minds probably is, Is there oppor-
tunity? Yes, greater than ever be-
fore. Look at the trenmendous
employment in the United States,
with salaries and wages high, and
a standard of living that is the
highest ever enjoyed by the rank
and file of any country.
Next, perhaps, you are wonder-
ing, Where is opportunity? Is it
away off in New York and Chica-
go? Yes—but there the competi-
tion is of the cut-throat variety
Opportunity is right here in your
home town. Opportunity is every-
where that there are people who
want services and products.
Charles Kessler was a pilot
structor during the war. As
flew a plane of aluminum,
thought, “This is a wondertul
material, so light and yet so
strong. Other things could be
made of it.” As he flew around,
he noticed many sagging gates on
farms and ranches, so he thought,
‘‘Why not a gate made of alumin-
um?”
So after the war, he and several
other veterans started a factory.
And where do you suppose they
located it? In Mineral Wells,
which we think of primarily as a
health and pleasure resort. And,
today their aluminum gates are in
service on the King Rank, Hous-
ton Fat . Stock Show, Chicago
stockyards, farms and ranches all
over the nation and are being
shipped to South America and the
islands of the Pacific.
Kessler found his opportunity in
a small city and his experience is
typical of that of other men
imagination and energy.
