Idienes' and Incompetency Keep the
business Novice Down.
Walter p. Phillips, the founder of
the national newsgathering corpora
ton known as the United Press, and
the inventor of Phillips telegraphic
code, typical, energetic American,
who has put many young men in the
newsgathering business, believes that
the cause of failure everywhere among
young business beginners lies in in
competence. Ninetenths of the young
men who are struggling for name
and place in the world are untitled
for the callings they have picked out
for themselves. Besides an unlimited
supply Of energy and whole-hearted-
ness in the work before him, the sue
ceSSful man of the future must know
his business from A to z. The next
greatest drawback to success is idle
ness. Nothing worth while is accom-
pliShed without work, and plenty of
it. Things do not happen without
cause, and behind every great life
there are years of concentrated energy
and tireless industry. Idleness will
make any man a failure; intelligent
work will land any man among the
successful. 1t is all so simple and so
trite that one hesitates to put the fact
down in cold blood, and yet how few
men recognize or. recognizing, live up
to the axiom, that labor conquers all
things ldleness and the conscious
ness of incompetency should make any
man ashamed Of himself and drive
him to do something that is worth the
doing. 1t is within the grasp of every
one to learn some one thing that will
yield both pleasure and profit. Sue
cess comes only to those who seek it,
The young man who is really in
earnest Will not have to be advised
how to succeed. He may learn much
by studying the failures of others.
however, and he will always find after
a survey of the great legion of the un-
successful, that two causes have
brought them to their present misery
