JOHN G. MAYO OF FOXCROFT. IXTY years of retrospection-to the days of '49 Are accorded John G. Mayo as the rounder of a line; For 'twas then, that he, with others, bullt the Foxcroft woolen .mill And the Mayos up in Foxcroft-they are making woolens still. Sixty years of steady progress; every year has seen it grow, Four generations of the Mayos since that sixty years ago; And, from such a small begimling, in that little country town, Has a business plant developed, with a national renown.

S

The best bequest-and here's the moral-from a father to a son, The quickest surest asset that a business ever won, Is the old-fashioned sense of honl)r and of strict inte,..OTity That shall color every action whatsoever it may be. He may have his lands and houses and his stocks and bonds galore, He may moor his gasoline-boats aU along the Sebec shore, He may have his banks and factories and hold office in the same, But the thing he most ($teems is-,the unsullied Mayo name.
