IA7 MOM all adore I cannot love—
* Too often lie Is weak,
Pliant, adjusting to wish of those
Whose voices speak.
Give me the strong, who swiftly take
Their chosen way, alone;
Nor cringe nor fawn, but boldly make
The world their own.
Whom all adore I cannot love—-
Tlie^e Is no real force there,
For he whose will is like a rod
Stoops not to share.
Give me the strong 1 The lonely tree
Upon the storm-swept mountain
great,
Has twice the strength of those we
plant
Inside our gate.
Give me the strong! The plastic clay
Is molded by the hands
Of every one who pauses, passing by—
The marble stands.

Something to
Think v4bout
By F. A. WALKER
RIGHT BEGINNING
\X7HAT you have done a dozen or
* * so times without getting the re
sult you sought signifies that your ef
forts were faulty.
You repeat and repeat, still cling to
the wrong way, continue your blunder
ing and finally end In dismal failure.
You may be a very adroit persoij,
capable of steering your course
through ordinary difficulties with a
commendable degree of confidence and
even succeed in astonishing your em
ployer, but when the real lest of your
ability comes, the one upon which your
promotion depends, your unfavorable
star glares malevolently, and uway you
go hither and thither like a leaf in a
gale, knowing not where you may be
swept.
After the wind has subsided and the
keen edge of your disappointment has
been blunted, you seek consolation In
the thought that of the millions who
occupy the face of this planet, great
numbers of them have passed through
similar experiences and survived.
That this Is true, and In all likeli
hood will remain true until the end of
time, does not In the least benefit you
materially or contribute in the small
est degree to your Intelligence, unless
you may have learned In your defeat
that one cannot do things properly un
til one has iflrst found the way to the
right beginnings.
It Is good to smile and bear the
burden of the cross complacently, but
the better thing to do is to ascertain
your faults and so improve yourself
that another failure of the same na
ture shall he Impossible.
The root of the aiatter Is that every
man who Is at the top of the ladder be
gun Sis ascent in youth from the
ground. He mastered the rudiments
step by step, sensibly surveyed every
thing around him as he climbed above
the heads of others and eventually be
came their master.
He made the right beginning. He
built his ladder ns he climbed, and be
fore building It he made sure that It
rested on u solid foundation which
neither fire nor flood could sweep
away.
Railroad presidents, industrial
heads, writers, painters, musicians, In
ventors and those quiet searchers
among celestial bodies of whom the
world hears but little until a new star
has been discovered and measured, all
began their careers in the right way,
by starting at the very base and work
ing undismayed through heat und cold
to the crowning summit.
