And Lincoln’s Words Shall Guide Us Onward! Guided by a code imparted to him by his mother, Abraham Lincoln throughout his public and private career carried the name of “Honest Abe.” Unusual and many were the problems which befell the great emancipator in the course of his existence, but ylways guided by the cardinal principles of fair play towards all men, the backwoods lawyer emerged on the upper level. Though conditions change and methods of business practice often may invite a detour of the interest of greed, we celebrate the birthday of the great lover of mankind by pledging ourselves to continue in the righteous path which we have elected to follow.
