the history of the ADVANCE, says:
No matter where you go, you, will
always find those who Obstruct your
pathway; always find those who be-
little your eudeavor; who ridicule hon.
est efforts to success; those who prove
great stumbling blocks to your pro-
gress; who are continually predicting
your failure; those who are envi0us,
Jealous and cruel; those who magnify
your indiscretion; those who lie about
you; those who put up jobs on you,
make merry and rejoice over your fail
ures. You cannot escape these people;
they lurk in every corner, in every
town and city; in every community,
and knowing this there Is then but one
way to thrive and hustle. II you find
not that which you seek in one spot,
