You give 10000 francs for leg and

Isn't this young mans age" bust
ness being bit overdone? You can't
pick up newspaper that doesn't con-
tain some allusion to the achievements
of the modern youth, while Roosevelt
and Emperor William have furnished
enough inspiration for young-man ed
itorials to float a battleship. We have
forgotten history. Every age since the
dawn of civilization has been the
young mans age 1t was SO In the be-
ginning, and it will always be SO. 1t
Is the part of youth to do things. Over
century ago Charles James Fox, at
20, was Lord of the English Admiral
ty. He was dissolute and tricky, but
keen and able. His rival, William
Pitt, managed the Office of Chancellor
of the Exchequer at % and was Pre-
mier of England at "a. Prince Ed
ward, at the age of 16. fought at the
battle of Crecy, in 1916, and led the
English army to great victory at "a.
At 16 Mozart was director of the Arch
bishop of Salzburg's orchestra. Re-
member that, you who marvel at the
youth of Hoffman and kubelik. Da-
vid, the shepherd boy, was king at
1S. and James Watt made possible the
steam engine while boy. Rafael had
finished his masterpiece at SO and Cor
tez was master of Mexico at 36. Pat
rick Henry was a leader at 20, and
Schubert, he Of the beautiful melodies,
was in his grave at 81. Napoleon, a
self-made man, swept the Austrans
from Italy before he was 20. He had
his foot on Europe's neck while he
was still Il young man. Alexander con-
quered Persia at 95, and Keats, the
hostlers son, was singing sweet songs
at 20. Burns had done his work at
81 and Byron died at the age of 36.
There isn't any end to the list. 1t
should encourage the young man of to-
day. Fame and greatness have been
for those who would win them in all
times. To-day there are more opportu-
mites than at any time In the worlds
history. We haven't SO many great
warriors, but our Napoleons are great
in the fields of industry and the arts
of peace. and none the less truly great
il history shall have no page for them
and coming generations forget their
names.
