There never was q time when young
men were offered better opportunities
FOR success IN life than in these days,
SAYS the Baltimore Anterie0n. There
never was a time when young men were
bett,r prepared or better trained for
business, for the professions or for
whatever calling they may have chosen.
There never was time when so much
attention was paid TO this preparatory
training, when such earnest efforts
were made 10 give ,oung men good
start aud 10 impress them with the
fact that to succeed they must remain
sleadfast to sound principles Of self
government. There never was a time
when the world was more ready 10 well
come young men 10 the ranks Of It's
workers, aud 10 give them honor, fame
and wealth when they prove that they
are fairly entitled to them.
These are days OF close competition
and restless activity. These are days
when much talk il heard Of this on that
HfNAtbhlbii heillk NNtiNANMAANt ~ AtttH "a
that business being oyordone. This Is
intended to discourage young men, but
Il seems TO be having just the opposite
effect.
One authority, seeking for sound ad-
vice 10 help young men along, tells them
that 90 succeed they must ilnd some
thing the world wants. 10 Is NOT that
they must become either inventors on
discoveries, but they must not h. COM
tent TO simply follow In the beaten paths
that have been marked out by others.
They must branch cut for themselves,
with new thoughts, new ideas and new
methods. They must not he content
TO do as Others have done before them.
Anyone can do that. The world has
taken on new life and new yigor, d has
gone through wonderful transforma-
ton, and young men 10 succeed must
not simply be content to Keep pace with
1t. They must lead the way.
