If we were to examine a list of
the men who have left their mark
on the world, says Success for July,
we should find that, as a rule, it is
not composed of those who were
brilliant in youth, or who gave
great promise at the outset Of their
careers, but rather Of the plodding
young men who, if they have not
dazzled by their brilliancy, have
had the power of days work in
them, who could stay by task un-
til it was done, and we'll done, who
have had grit, persistence, common
sense and honesty tits the steady
exercise of these ordinary, homely
virtues, united with average ability,
rather than a deceptive display Of
more snowy qualities in youth,
that enables a man to achieve
greatly and honorably. SO, if we
were to attempt to make forecast
of the successful men Of the future,
we should not look for them among
the ranks of the "smart" boys,
those who think they "know
it alp and are anxious to win by a
short route.

OF frownihg upon newcomers to
