A TRIBUTE TO MARK GRAVES
The late Mark Graves was one o.'
the few men born In Allegany
county whose names have appearec"
In "Who's Who."
The
example
set by Mark
Graves, a farm boy of a largf
family, Is one that every young
man can ponder over with profit
Through study, untiring industry
and a clear cut conception of wha
a worth while life really can be
he became an outstanding figure in
the complex world of taxation.
He was never led from the
straight and narrow path of
Justice to the taxpayer, small and
large alike.
False gods and crack pot theories
never had a lure for him; he kep..
both feet on the ground.
Men with the vision of Mark
Graves are sorely needed today ir.
the world of business and finance.
No all wise, beaurocrat with a
closed mind was he! His rule was
to learn something new and useful every day, to keep in step with
a changing world.
Our country is calling for clea:
headed, virile, honest and fearless
men of the Mark Graves type
May their tribe Increase!—J.P.H.
