ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
It would be a pleasure to call over by name and thank individually the business men and the business
organizations that so graciously furnished the material upon which this little book is based. But the author
feels that some of them will not agree with all the statements made and the inferences drawn, and for this
reason is unable to do better than give this meager return for a service which was by no means meager.
[Transcriber's Note: Please note that the book does not credit an author. The Library of Congress lists
Nella Henney as the author.]
