Record for Faithful Service Seldoin in these days, has any business the privilege of recording, sucli a Iength of faithful service as that g-iven to The States- man by the laIe Miss E. E.

Forty-seven years is in itself a full adult lifetime, and when that period of years is given over entirely te such devoted service te, one firm. it becomes a record of which both the one who ga-,e that service and those wvho received il, mig-ht well be proud. The worid does uiot produce manv Miss Haycrafts. That type of ioyalty which she represented is al 100 infrequent in these days.
