There is a structure which every institution builds for
tself ^ is called character, and every act is a stone in
his stucture.
An institution, in order to have a good character, must
think honestly, act honestty, breathe honesty. The
people soon determine between the genuine and the
ounterfeit. They know the ring of the true metal
and the base.

see another bumper crop of
peaches this year.
