Description:Excerpt from Sprague Warner Company Incorporated, 1862-1912, Historical Historical When one early Roman was required to write an introduction to another's works, he said, "I will willingly obey your commands, not ignorant that there is more of honor than labor in the task." The writer approaches this work with the same feeling, knowing that the only difficulty will be to reject from an over-abundance of material much that deserves presentation and select only the comparatively small quantity that can be used in the space at his disposal. Volumes could be written relating to the house of Sprague, Warner Company since its beginning fifty years ago, but these volumes could not tell all the story nor pay the tribute justly due to the founders of this institution. One hesitates in the writing of pages such as these, halting between a desire to give the credit and honor due and the fear that when the simple truth is set down it will be misconstrued as an encomium inspired by the enthusiasm and personal esteem of the writer. However careful one may be, those who knew personally the founders of this institution will say that the writer has fallen far short of paying tribute justly due; and yet readers unacquainted with these men may feel that too much praise is given. A business that endures for half a century and grows greater with every passing year must do more than deal fairly. No concern had a monopoly of honest goods at fair prices fifty years ago; no concern has such a monopoly to-day. Honest goods at fair prices are not uncommon and usually can be found by the purchaser with money or credit. A firm that grows from a small beginning to an institution of colossal magnitude must have individuality, originality, aggressiveness, character and strength. It is not difficult for any merchant, or any firm of merchants, to make sales at the beginning of a business career. It should not be difficult to have the second years business surpass the first, and the third years business show larger than the second. Growth in volume, in yearly totals of sales, means a great deal, but this growth from year to year must be on a solid foundation.
