SING A SONG OF SIXPENCE Vocalize in silver strains, and with pennies six, Measured farinaceous grain deftly intermix; Take of ebon-tinted birds twenty-five or nigh, Place in crust-bound earthen vase , quickly then apply Calorific rays until the temperature is high, Intersect the outer crust and a portion raise; Hark! the feathered choristers are chanting hymns of praise! Wasn ' t that a sight to fill the monarch with amaze? Rex was in his business room at the iron chest, Accurately estimating coin that he possessed; Fair regina striving hunger ' s cravings to appease, Ate with bread a product of the industry of bees; A servant in the garden hung apparel out to dry, Watched by an ebon-tinted bird escaped from the pie; He, full of righteous wrath, a swift avenger proved, And quickly her nasal protuberance removed.

The Heritage of a Good Name ONCE in the long ago, in the days of the hardy Angles, Jutes and Saxons, there lived in East- phalia, in Germany, a group of traders known as the Easterlings. Stern, dependable fellows these Easterlings. Their word was good. Honesty in business was the keynote of their civilization. The products they had to sell were meritorious. What a reputation they established! They put hon- esty, merit, into the name Easterling! . That name lives today, abbreviated. Remember the Easterlings, when next you hear of the pound Sterling — or Sterling silver. Nearly one hundred years ago, in 1833, a group of Southbridge men — not old men, not men who were more gifted in youth than those who read this page, — began a spectacle business on Hartwell ' s Corner. Their business was honest, legitimate in every re- spect. It grew, and soon the number of original spec- tacle-makers was augmented by others. One among these, George W. Wells, was a young man of sterling character. He exemplified honesty, strength of pur- pose; he worked hard and intelligently. Recognizing his merit, George W. Wells ' associates called upon him to shoulder the leadership of American Optical Company. Shortly, his name became synony- mous with the faithful and honest dealings he advo- cated. When he died, he left the Heritage of a Good Name behind him. Its significance to his lieutenants who were to carry on alone, grows more vivid each time the word Wellsworth is pronounced! The humble beginning of Wellsworth factories U rt)h American Optical Company Southbridge, Massachusetts, U. S. A.
