Berry: "It will be strictly non-political; it will not attempt to exploit any theme or theory on partisan lines; it will religiously refrain from 'underwriting' the am bitions or activities of any individual, public or private; it will be severely inde pendent, making its appeal to the interests of the readers rather than to the vanity of those in charge; it will encourage that training which no successful business man can ignore if he desires his employees to be better disciplined and trained to give 100 per cent. of duty to all work entrusted to them—it will be a. vehicle for the propagation of one policy and only one: Better Guardsmanship and Better Citizenship!"
