Two Friends When we think of Commerce, two faces rise before our eyes: one, a square, quiet face with a comrade’s eyes; the other, a gravely benign face with the deep- set eyes of a dreamer and doer. Two men — and Commerce! Mr. Ellis dreamed it true, and Mr. Burtt is carrying on from the point where the older man was forced to lay down a well- loved task. Each man a friend; each man a guide. Two men — beloved of Commerce. Somehow, it is hard to make words express our feelings for Mr. Burtt. If we could only take our thoughts and lay them before him, he could realize, perhaps, that which is so difficult for us to say. Honest, sincere liking and a deep, abiding sense of friendliness, our thoughts would bring; admiration of a man square-cut and clean; respect for his honesty; delight in his sense of humor, quiet but strong; admiration of a man fine in mind and body; realization that here is one whom it would be well to follow. “Friend” we call the two, Mr. Burtt and Mr. Ellis. “Friend’’ — a small word, often-used, and yet what a vast meaning lies behind its simpleness. The word is true of the men to whom it is given. Page six
