The Editor S. A. Weller Dead Useful Life About Greatness The Pot and Potter CAMUEL A. WELLER many things dead. are so that may be said when a great man dies, 80 many vague recriminations and faint mistrustings of the scheme life--and death--that to enter upon an eulogy of one who has lived to do so much is fraught with grave uncertainty.

That he was a great man in the business he mastered is beyond question. What his claims to greatness might be outside that business may not be so prominent his industrial eminence. The common acceptance of a great man la sometimes at variance with a closer appraisal of the elements of greatness. BE great is not solely the lot princes and kings. It is not solely the lot of generals and warriors.

It Is not always the lot of men who live in great cities and pyramid their wealth into untold monuments. Pomp and panoply are no more the symbols of greatmess than are tears the symbol of serief. The constituent elements of greatness are debatable. But no man who has charity can be far removed from greatness. And no man who has vision can be far removed, nor no man who has tolerance, or forebearance, or integrity, or decision, or courage of the constructive type, can be far removed from greatness.

Any one of these things is in itself closely akin to greatness. a man has all of these there is no law or rote that can deny him a claim to eminence. When he has, in addition, the secret of success and the virtue unswerving loyalty, whether his mission be millions or pennies, he undeniably has passed through that threshold above which is written "Only Those Who Are Great WithIn Themselves May Enter Here." Perhaps the outstanding virtue 'of Sam Weller was his loyalty. He loyal to his friends, loyal to life's business, loyal to his famto the city called home and, Yeve all, to himself. His loyalty paid him untold dividends in the worlds goods, but it paid him vastly greater returns in the devotion of those he gathered about him.

His business expanded and reached to other cities, but Zanesville was Over his home and the siren lure of great cities, where his wealth might have given him untold comforts and pleasures, was impotent against the armor of his loyalty.
