and found in Mr.. Nanderlip the man
who seemed able to do it. This line
of the banking business has grown
enormously during the last few years,
ana as New York is rapidly becoming
the Headquarters of the worlds haute
finance the possibilities ahead of Mr..
Vanderlip are practically unlimited
J. Pierpont Morgan foresaw this when.
as very young man. he engaged in
foreign banking, in which he speedily
built UP name and fortune.
The fact is, opportunities are just as
good for young men to make fortunes
now as they ever We're. II they pre-
fer to labor in the fields of science or
scholarship the rewards are surer and
more satisfying, bu, it is in the power
of any man to achieve a moderate
competence, and those who are willing
to pay the price of self-denial may be-
come rich in the same way as the ell
der Aston and Vanderbilt heaped up
their colossal fortunes. The world is
growing as rapidly now as it ever did
and the need Of capable young men
in all ines of business and the pro
fessions is as great as ever. This is
the opinion OF Mr.. Carnegie, Mr..
Schwah, Mr.. Gage and other self-made
men. Is it not wiser to accept their
testimony than that of the whining
socialist who would have the state do

done by the determined. Emerson
expressed it in only slightly different
fashion when he said TO young men
that if they wanted anything they
should take it and pay the price
Doubtless everyone in the audience
that heard Mr.. Gage would have given
ten years of his life to be able to sat
isfy the conditions he required, but
he we'll knew that he did not possess
the necessary qualifications. More
over, there was probably not one of
them that was willing to buy success
by the hard work that is necessary
He would be willing TO take off ten
years OF the duration of life ii he
could be properly equipped, but he
would not spend ten years in the nee
essary study and work to win that
equipment for himself.
And yet all that Mr.. Gage said was
true Witness the experience of one
young man whom Mr.. Gage took for a
confidential secretary at the begin
ming Of his term in the treasury.
Frank A. Vanderlip was quite young
man, but he had the equipment neces-
sary. and he was soon elevated from
his clerkship to be an assistant secre-
tary. A few months ago he resigned
to enter the service of the greatest fin
ancial corporation Of New York as its
yice-president. This bank was desir-
Gus of developing its foreign business
