THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., WEDNESDAY. MAY 25 19 | ANSBURGH & BROTHER STORE NEWS—Wednesday, May 25, 1921 420-30 Seventh St. Northwest Washington—New York—Paris - . Helping You Get Ready for the Holiday Self-Conceit Rarely Paints a Picture It is a little mind that sup- poses everybody is looking at him because he is trying to do something that he believes to be great. Often he is disappointed if not immediately noticed and praised. He were better off to see things as they are, and work them out upon a broader scale that will earn the desired recognition. Washington’s Monument is dominant in its sphere, and can be seen for miles because it is truly great. Only great things can be seen long distances. Self-conceit rarely paints a great picture or builds a great piece of machinery. If anybody could make us bigots, it would not be free thinkers or pedantic cox- combs. Just our simple everyday work must tell the life story. L% Room for These in Your Boston Bag —for the week-end and hol- iday trip. (By the way, we have) Boston Bags, of split cow- hide, $1.95.
