All careers, even great ones, come to an end. The retail industry has provided more than its share of past CEOs who led exemplary lives to go along with great careers. During Kenneth Macke's tenure ...as CEO of Target Corp, he led a groundbreaking fight against corporate raiders, bought the Marshall Field's chain and solidified the Target chain's firm No. 2 position behind Wal-Mart in the massive discount space. He has never stopped being justifiably proud of what he accomplished or what he stood for. Another man who deserves to be proud of his legacy is Glen Shank, the CEO of Duckwall-ALCO. He led the company through a subsequent bankruptcy and made the company a survivor where many others had died. While criticisms can be made of their performances as CEOs, no one can ever accuse them of not living the example in terms of doing the right thing for the team.

The great common adventure of the two men's lives came in the summer of 1911, when Marc and Wassily Kand-inksy, in association with Macke and Gabriele Miinter, founded Der Blaue Reiter (Blue Rider) group; that December, in opposition to the New Artists' Society of Munich, they organized the "First Exhibition of the Editorial Board of the Blue Rider." Marc's Deer in the Forest II is a likewise engaging, primeval forest scene, while The Wolves (Balkan War) fairly screams violence.
