90 THE TALKING MACHINE WORLD October 15, 1918 Days of Certainty and Uncertainty (HESE are days of certainty and, too, days of uncertainty. Certainty that we are going to win this war, cost what sacrifice it may. We are going to win it, because we have set that task for ourselves and it is not the spirit of America to leave such a job unfinished. Uncertainty, that we do not know from day to day just how the tide of events is going to affect this, our business. Uncertainty, because we cannot follow certain business policies, which during times of peace would be a simple course. We cannot, because of the bigger business. But certainty, that we are going to do our best to keep our "home wheels" turning, for we believe that to be a big part of the day's programme. And certainty again, that we feel deeply our responsibility, our part, of the bigger business and are backing it and stand ready to back it to the very limit of our strength, our ability and our resources.
