McADOO, TUNNEL BUILDER,
%H AT THE BERRY SCHOOL. 83
Below is part of a speech deliverad
to the students of the Berry School
recently by the great tunnel builder of
New York, Wm. G. McAdoo:
““I love Georgia for many things;
it is my native state and momories of
my boyhood days linger with me, but I
love it chiefly because it has produced
men and women of the stamp from
which Miss Berry sprang. When I
think of the men and women who are
making citizens out of the raw mate
rial of the boys and girls, all material
achievements that we have been able
to acomplish sprink into insignificance.
I would rather have been the founder
of the Berry school than to have built
the Hudson tunne!s.
““Perhaps I am more in position to
know how really great this work i';i
than most people, for I myself was a
Georgia boy who had his own way to
make in the world. The Berry school
is practical, it teaches boys to stand .')n;
their own resources and to become in- f
dependent. I am glad Sherman was
careless with fire, for it forced me '.ul?
Jearn to stand hardships and overcome |
difficulties. It is conditions such .:151:
these that teach boys to feel the z:vw,n-;-i’
sity of devising ways in accomplishing |
things.
““When Sherman left middle Georgia
desolate he also left me the honor of
being forced to become the first news
boy in the town of Milledgevilie., I
worked at this for a time, then con
ceived at that time the idea of seilingl
Augusta and Macon papers in Milledge
ville. Itis my rvecollection that this
work netted me about 6 cents a day,
but that was infinitesimal compared
with the idea and knowledge that I gotl
through the medinm of being andepent
worker. It gave me good training forl
the work which I have since done.
“I learned to endeavor to do things
at which other men had failed. This
was not from an over-confidence or too
great conception of my own ability,
but simply from the desirve to aim high
in order that I might accomplish some
thing even though it was but little. 1
studied law then went to Chattanooga,
and there my first year's law practice
netted me the sum of $340.
“After awhile things came easier,
then I went to .New York. Following
my custom I found something which
men had tried for twenty years to do,
but had failed. I decided to try it,
even though failure was a result for
sometimes honest failure is better than
success. My Georgia blood was enthus
ed and at last I accomplished it—ll built
the Hudson tuanels.
‘““‘Boys don't get the idea that 1 have
any extraordinary ability. 1 haven’t,
Do the task well, that is the point.
Much more credit than I deserve has
been given me for the buiding of the
tunnels. Icouid never have succeeded
without the asssistance and loyalty of
many other men. A teader must have
the loyal support of many men and
weld them into one organization. Op
timism and an ability to make friends
has served me better than any other
qualities. Try to cultivate these and
straight thinking at all times and you
will find it's worth while. [t just keeps
on building up.
‘‘Be honest, be truthful, be straight,
and never be swerved from the things
that are tobe done. Here in the south
we have great natural resources; much
is being written and said about conser
vation, but the greatest natural resour
ces are not land, water powers, timber
and mineral deposits, but the boys and
girls of the country. Real! conserva
tion is the conservation of these re
sources. Government is not to deal alone
with material things, but the great
gociologist and humanitarian problems.
When we reach the point that we are
ready to put the individual above prop
erty then we shall begia to abolish
poverty, that chief indictment of our
civilization. Our people must be edu
cated to realize that human beings are
more valuable than property. Develop
the human being first and the develop
ment of all other resources will follow.
“Young men, don't depend on luck.
Some man will give you your first op
portunity, but itdepends upon you after
that how you are going to use that op
portunity. Let me give you this rule
of success: ‘Do vour work better than
any one else.” Then some one higher
up will say: ‘I need a man up here who
can be relied upon.’ Success and satis
faction are in the line of doing the
thing better than anyhody else ever did
it before you. Not all can he great,
but all can do welb
“To succeed you must be honest and
truthful. Don’t compromis» with the
Ten Commandments; they are the best
Chart Of lif(,‘. One lh]flg move is nqu(L
ed—that is loyalty. { mean the loyalty
which your great chiel here, Miss
Berry, 1s inculcating in you every day,
and loyalty to the right at all times,
‘‘Loyalty is ere the same,
Though it win or lose the ganie,
True is the dial to the sun,
Theugh it be not shined upon.”’

LIFE VERSUS DEATH BREAD
Physician Claims Wuch for Prepara
tion That He Assérts Hag Re
newed [His Life.
The phywician had oace been a dys
peptic, sour and morsse; but HKis
color was now ruddy amnd clear, his
spirits light, and his health excellent.
“Death bread,” he said, “laid me:
low. Death bread kept me a dyspep
tic for ten fomg, sad yearss And life
bread has made me my owm buoyant,
heaithy, happy self again.
“What do T mean by death bread?
I mean ordinary bread. Why do I call
it death bread? Because it is alivel
with putrefactive germs—becanse, by
more than one authority, the yeast
cells in it are sald to be identical
with the diseased cells of pus~and,
therefore, are a potzon.
“Yeast, In fact, is as unhealthy as |
its sickly smell and musty, slimy con
sistency would lead vou to believe.
It is a mass of living germs—and
along with these are mingled puire- |
factlve germs. Yeast Is a very harm- !
ful thing. It makes bread a very
harmful thing. Ali bread made with
yveast 1s death bread. : {
“Life bread—that is- what I eat. 1|
make it myself. I take wheat of tlie;
finest quality, unground, and I roast
it over a hot fire in a thick iron sauce
pan. The grains, an inch deep in;
the pan, are stirred continually. They
pop, like popcorn, and, when all have !
popped—it i 3 a matter of about ten;
minutes—my life bread i 3 done. :
“Each grain of this life bread is a:|
loaf, a miniature, delicious loaf, |
brown and crisp, that falis to powder|
on being bitten. Life br=ad must be
kept in air-tight tins. It is the health
iest, the most nourishing, and the
best-flavored bßread in existence. But
it must be confessed that the loavesl
are rather small.”
my best to make you a good represen
tative and I believe that T will be bet
ter prepared to look after your inter
est in the future than infthe past. I
find thata member must first get a
thorough knowledge of the work and
get acquainted’ with the members
before he can do much.
E.I desire to thank the pecple of Cobb
for electing me in the last race and to
assure you thatif you honor me by
re-election I will highly appreciste it
and at all times be found at my post
of duty and trying to work for the
best interests of'all our people.
