men of affairs today, made their lives
a success by quickly grasping what
ever opportunity offered itself when
they were young, and holding to it
firmly a*nd steadily. Abraham Lincoln
is typical of the men, who have con
verted opportunity into character. He
it was who could look through the
mists of fate with keen eye and pa
tient heart, and read the words, “Gol
den Opportunity,” where others could
see only a perspective of gloomy
hardships. Doubtless, the inequalities
in human lives proceed mainly from
this cause. If so, should we not seize
with all the energy and enthusiasm
in our power, the opportunities held
out to us? Should we not possess our
selves of the jewels that brighten and
enrich character? Should we not be
up and doing, making hay while the
:,an shines, delaying not until the bur
den and heat of the day, makes our
energies falter? Let us remember that
delay is often fatal; procrastination
and opportunity are deadly enemies.
Some shiftless people excuse their
indolence by saying, “Better late than
never,” but better never late is a
more manly motto. A little too late
is much too late. It is no need to
run with a bucket when the vinegar
has all leaked out. If we would suc
ceed, we must strike while the iron
is hot. There is but one time for do
ing a thing, and if we let that time
slip by, we have no promise for the
future. Therefore, friends, let us act
on the old copybook advice, “Never
put off until tomorrow, what you can
do today.”
Yours, PERSISTENCE.

DON’T GIGGLE, GIRLS.
If half the girls knew how silly
they looked and sounded when they
constantly giggled, they would stop it.
Learn to smile, not giggle.
Nothing is more infectious and
charming than a good laugh, but very
few people know how to laugh. It is
as rare in life as it on the stage.
A giggle usually come from ner
vousness. A girl will giggle when she
can not think of anything to say or
when she is trying to be at ease in
company.
She will giggle when a boy meets
her and says, “Good morning.” She
will giggle tvhen he says “Good-by.”
She is only nervous, but she appears
silly.
It is no wonder that young men
speak with utter scorn of the giggling
girl. They seem to think her the least
attractive maiden on earth. It is try
ing to attempt to hold any kind of
conversation with a girl who will
punctuate her every remark with gig
gles.
It is not always possible to know at
first thought whether or not you are
one of the girls who giggle. Stop and
think about it. Watch yourself the
next time you are with anyone. See
whether this senseless trick is a part
of your social equipment. If it is,
take any heroic means to strangle
that giggle until it is dead.
Far better be silent. You may then
get the credit for wisdom that you
have not got. Better than all, if you
don’t know how to give a cheery,
musical, spontaneous laugh, then try
your best to learn how to smile.
