Heart Lake - Frank Hutner, of Toronto, a large manufacturer of children's coats and capes, was a guest of Mr. and Mrs. D. L. Robinove last week. Mr. Hutner used to be a peddler in this locality, making headquarters for two or three years at W. A. Brown's, at Heart Lake, and will be remembered by a great many of the people he used to visit. But the road was not to hold him long, for he went to New York and began the manufacturing of children's garments, and met with instant success. He continued in New York for some time but when competition became severe, he left the field to the other fellows, and established his plant in Toronto, where he finds conditions much more favorable and today is firmly established with a good business. The boy who works, waits, and saves, and has added to these qualities, that of honesty, has always a chance for a place high upon the ladder in life's race, while the boy who does not make the most of is opportunities, must, and rightly remain near the bottom.
