When they get far behind they can
not keep step. For the atmospheric

Any soldier far behind who rekies on fi&n@und will be

Life is a procession, Time is the drummer;;and the hour
glass is his drum. As you stop fdr'”‘.T;figment‘,to read this,
time and the procession go on, and yoi»__\gg\-!d‘fth it. Every
day men should be reminded of the fact fiut the only real
property is slipping past us, not upod,;' A
MONEY lost can be made Mfi!’?&!’flm lost
may come again; even FRIENDS lnstg ny L replaced. But
TIME lost is gone forever. 1 e
e o {IeNUH 1] i
Thomas Jefferson, who never lost & moment, whether he
was writing the Declaration of Independence for the United
3tates or shipping the skeleton of a moose to France, wrote
to his daughter Martha:
“No person will have occasion to complain of the loss
of time who never loses any.”’ g i
If you keep UP with Time, and stay close behind the old
drummer, you will have no trouble. You will find the pace
comfortable, conditions easy, mo difficulty in keeping step
with the other leaders.
But those that throw time away and then complain that
they haven’t got it, that fall behind farther and farther, pity
their lot.
They are mentally out of step, worried and hurried. The
day’s end finds them more tired than it does the individual
who has kept at the front and KEPT GOING.
s & @ ,
They say ‘‘Time is money,’’ and so it is. For money is
the thing that men accumulate by their efforts. And Time is
the ourrency that represents all real effort and all real results.
Time and money are alike in this—one who squanders
either will suffer for it.
Fall behind the times, become sluggish, lét the procession
pass you, and it is a weary race trying to catch up again.
Fall behind with vayments, let debt overtake you, be
cause vou have not kept up with the financial procession, and
a weary stern chase is ahead of you.
With loss of credit it is the same as with loss of time.
s TORAY
Father Time Beats the Drum,
and We All March.
We May Lag Behind and Get
Out of Step if We Choose, But
MARCH We Must, None the
Neither is necessary; both entail endless, unnecessary struggle.

To a young man who said he could not save money be
cause he made only twelve dollars a week a wise adviser re
plied: ‘‘lf you do not save SOMETHING on twelve dollars a
week, you will never save anything as long as you live.”’
The man with a small salary thinks it isn’t sufficiently
important to be worth saving. It isn’t what you save, it is
what you DO.
So it is with time. Nine men out of ten waste more than
half of it. Working for another man, they imagine that they
are wasting the other man's time, whereas they are wasting
their own blood of life, throwing away the few years falling
behind, probably never to catch up.
& & &
Time of itself is an even, unchanging current. The watch
ticks in your pocket, the earth rolls around once in twenty-four
hours, it journeys around the sun in its corkscrew path once
in a year. The comets go on their journeys and return, the
seasons follow each other. It is all smooth, even, steady.
Time is unchanging, but men, events and opportunities
change, and every moment has its value for the watchful,
painstaking man, for use of any one hour may mean success.
One moment may be more valuable than another in the way
of opportunity. But it is only the man who uses ALL the
time, studies and looks out all the time, who seizes the RIGHT
time.
And in the history of the world there has never been a
more important TIME than the present, or a time more com
pletely filled with opportunities and possibilities.
* & *
The world and its power are being rearranged.
The money of the earth has been poured out in tens of
billions.
In this country alone thousands of millions have been
spent, thousands of millions created, and the presses that print
money have been running night and day.
If MONEY is the thing you want, time is valuable now
as it never was before.
The next three or four years, unless all signs fail, are to
be years of most phenomenal prosperity and opportunity.
Drive about in a great city to-day; look at the fine houses,
hear names of those that have big fortunes and you are told:
‘‘He made that after the war,’’ the reference being to the
Civil War,
A Daily Column of Comment and Opinion on High Spots of News Written by Arthur Brisbane in His Incomparable Style Appears in The Atlanta Georgian.
TELL YOUR NEWSDEALER TO DELIVER THE GEORGIAN AT YOUR HOME EVERY WEEK DAY AS WELL AS THE AMERICAN EVERY SUNDAY.
ATLANTA, GA., SUNDAY, MAY 25, 1919
Less, Beginning With the First
Breath and Ending With the Last.
" It Pays to Keep Near the Drum,
Keep in Step, and Be “Up”’ With
Fatfier Time.
This is another time of ‘‘after the war.'’ Fortunes are
going to be made greater than were ever dreamed of, for op
portunity is here, and the sums dealt with are gigantio,
& & &
Remember that the man who passes you in the street or
sits at the desk next to yours, bothered, perhaps as you are,
now, about payments on a house or a lot, will be in ten years
from now one to whom you will point, saying: ‘‘l knew him
when he had nothing.'’
If that man could be pointed out to you to-day you
would say: “‘I have as good a chance as HE has; I can do
anything that HE can do.” .
So you have, and so you can, for all that he is really doing
¢+ is keeping close up to the drum of time.
He is not racing, turning somersaults, going without sleep
or starving himself. But he is USING HIS TIME. While he
has work to do he is AT it. And when he has no work to do
with his hands, no routine work for his mind, he is THINK
ING, planning how he can get OUT of the routine.
& ¢ -
A man died a little while ago, and the papers tell you
now that he had so many millions to leave behind him. Only
a little while before he was a clerk in a department store.
He was not very young. Other men near him younger than
he would have laughed had they been told that they wonld
soon read of the great fortune built by this man. He was
capable, steady, able, not especially brilliant. But he kept up
with time, thought and planned, saved some money which
represented time gone by. When opportunity came he was
up in front and ready to take it.
Take the case of another man, one of the most useful, con
structive citizens in the country, and one of the most distinctly
suocessful. You would recognize at once a half dozen of his
a.coomplishments;..xst,a,nding out pre-eminent.
Not long ago, if you had gone into a certain shoe store,
you would have found this man ready to take off your shoe,
try on another, fit you if he could, treat you politely, and his
employer fairly in any case. !
Perhaps if you had seen that man then and somebody had
told you that in a little while his money would run into mil
lions, and his accomplishments into something more important
than money, you would have said: ‘‘lf he can do it I can, and
] willl™”
Not far from you, with no better chance than yours, with
no advantage except perhaps that he knows time's value,
works regularly, evenly, is the man who is to be the big suc
cess, to be admired and envied in ten or twenty years.
The pitiful thing about wasting time is the lack of reason
ing. All must march in Time's procession, anyhow, The,
journey cannot be avoided. .
It is worth while to make the extra little effort, to pay
attention to the minutes that go by and USE them, and thus]
keep a front place in the procession. '
Success is not difficult, especially in this country of op-)
portunities. It really takes persistent, almost scientific misuse:
and neglect of time to make a real failure. !
Competition is not keen; it is almost nil '
. How many men do you know of whom you can say truly!
thatmhpaysumohattenflontothepufinghouruho:
would to a dollar bill lying in the guiter? Any man would:
take the trouble to walk back and stoop down for the value'
that a dollar represents. In modern success, the man whose
hour is only worth one dollar does not amount to much. If
he worked for fifty years and made a dollar every hour, he,
would earn less than balf a million dollars, and that isn't a
fortune in modern phraseology, although it is a great deal
of menay. )
8 * 4 ‘
' 'Any man of average ability can make the hours of his
life worth a dollar each, and that is putting it mildly. And
the interesting part of it, for those that like business and
money, is that each hour used makes the future hours more
profitable; the value of time grows with time, if you keep up
near the front.
But, the man worth while does not think of time as meas
ured merely by the money that can be extracted from it.
Money means only what you can eat, wear, a"bed to sleep in,
FREEDOM FROM WORRY and the right to use your time
as you please. : ‘
Real use of time, real delight in it, its real value, come in
the case of a 8 REAL man when all material necessity for work
is ended. i
Any hour well spent by an intelligent man cam produce
a dollar. The same hour well spent by the same man-can
produce ten, twenty or a hundred useful thoughta.
In an hour you can read many pages containing the in
tellectual essence of great men that have lived before you.
One hour devoted intelligently to a good book of hhfory,f
astronomy, philosophy or scienoce will actually add years to
your life, for in an hour you can absorb the work to which
other men have devoted years.
; & & &
Every newspaper once a month ought to write about time,
the value and the waste of it.
Used properly, time will make you rioh, and that is the
least important except as wealth means freedom from care,
time to think.
Used always, time will make you comtented. The busy
mind is the only satisfied mind. On the day that you were
born you entered the procession, sentenced to it for life.
The tail end is dreary and uncomfortable. The front end
is worth while.
Keep up with the old drummer; xeep in step, keep ahead,
USE YOUR TIME.
