Excerpt from Prairie Farmer's Directory of Kankakee County, Illinois, 1917: Complete Directory of the Farmers of Kankakee County, With Valuable Information About Each Farm; Breeders' Directory, Giving Full Classified List of Breeders of Purebred Livestock and Poultry; Business Directory, Giving List of All Business Houses The ideals he has held up to these young men are best summed up in their creed, that reads as follows: I believe that the country which God made is more beautiful than the city which man made; that life out of doors and in touch with the earth is the natural life of man. I believe that work is work wherever we find it, but that work with nature is more inspiring than work with the most intricate machinery. I believe that the dignity of labor depends not on what you do, but on how you do it; that opportunity comes to the boy on the farm as often as to the boy in the city; that life is larger and freer and happier on the farm than in the town; that my success depends not upon my location, but upon-myself - not upon my dreams, but upon what I actually do; not upon luck but upon pluck. I believe in working when you work, in playing when you play, and in giving and demanding a square deal in every act of life.
