There was fearful Storm in tho

remarked that he saw the blackest

The rain resolved itself into hail

Before q large number of young men,
many of them members OF his Bible,
class in New York, John ID. Rockefel
Ter. Jr.. delivered short address oiN
Opportunity" In an earnest manner
he expressed the belief that meid
chance has little to do in shaping thu
fortunes of men. and that opportunity
must be sought
He based his remarks on. the promise
given in Matt. vii. Z. ASK, and Ii
shall be given you: seek. and ye shall
find; knock, aud IL shall be opened
unto YOU"
1T often happens. said Mr.. Roeke.
feller.9 9f'that young man in all ear
nestness says. i want to do something
for myself. something for my friends
something for my family and som%s'
thing for my God, and fails to do any
thing. Then he sighs and believes that
| opportunity has never offered itself to
him. s..."
II suppose that II often happens thst
men are the victims of circumstances
hut more often better explanation fotS
failure can be found. Some say that
Hobson did that great deed in the har.
Dor OF Santiago because fortune fav.
ored him. Others who were there were
brave and competent and just as will
ing as Hobson. yet the opportunity was
only for him.
The reason that one man finds an
opportunity while another fails is that
the iirst seeks while the other waits t.
be called. II is not always so, but at
least ninety mine times in hundred
fortune fayors the persistent hunter
and passes by the laggard.
Christ says. Go and knock On the
door If you want to get in. Don't sit
back and wait for the door TO open.
SO when man knocks on the door to
success and demands an opportunity
he may he mighty poor specimen. he
may be ignorant he may know nothing
or the task on the other side OF the
door but the fact that he knocks and

hailstorm struck the cabin. The sight
was awe-inspiring There was but lit

Two men drove up to the cabin ff-
teen minutes later and said the road

find yourself idle while willing to work
and you think that opportunity passes
you by, stop and consider more care

Opportunity consists OF one-tenth
circumstance and nine-tenths effort

with so much force that they carried
everything before them

found his opportunity and has made
the most of 1t is more greatly benefited
by the results than the world is bene-
