SUCCESS IN LIFE.

President John Finley of the Col
lego of the City Of New York re-
Gently estimated that the college
graduate has one chance in forty OF
"succrcdmg in Iifr,' whereas the
man who hasn't been TO college has
only one chance in 10000.
It is unf0rtunat" lIat President
Finley has not made clear what he
means by the phrase succeeding in
life" Until that foundation is detin-
itely fixed, any such figures as he
presents can be nothing more than
mere speculation.
Success in life is relative. To no
two minds does it mean the same.
To no two conditions can it be alike
applicable.
There can be no material standard
of success, for the reason that the
outlook. the aspiration and attain
ment Of any man are his alone. No
two can occupy the same view
point. No two can regard success
from the same mind and heart.
The poor, undcrPaid preacher,
whose congregation is small because
he breaches religion undetiled, may
in the common estimate be failure
But who can forctrll the harvest to
come from the pregnant seed thus
sown in good ground? Another
generation may see mighty church
arise. that some rich man puts Il gOr-
geous window in and call his monu-
ment
Which is the more successful life
the one that builds Il great window
or the one that stimulates the spirit
which makes IA church?
Success in life consists in fitting
oneself to ones environment, and
one thing more-eleyuting the envi-
ronment.
Whether college education helps
or binders depends upon the man and
the environment. Higher education
would not help digger OF uitches
or a mere grubber after money. But
it is Indispensable to men whose in
terests and pursuits extend beyond
themselves.
If education were what it ought to
be-character development-it would
make every man more successful
in life. But unfortunately it is not

DID ROBBERY THWART IN

AS he spoke he led the way to the foot of

MOODY SPOKE IN CIRCUS.
Incident Which Took Place During
Chicago Worlds Fair Related
by a Snowman.

Speaking of circus church services"
said a circus man to a Chicago Inter
Ocean reporter, the story printed the
ether day reminds me of a curious
combination of the circus and the
church conducted by a great evangelist
and a big three ring show in Chicago
during the worlds fair. Dwight l..
Moody was here, but was unsuccessful
in finding any suitable place large
enough to hold the crowds he expect
ed to attend his meetings. Finally he
- upon the idea of a big tent.
we wers giving Sunday shows
there, but as we were way down be-
low Randolph street and the fair and
other big attractions were uptown, our
business had been poor. The circus
management thought Mr.. Moody could
draw the crowd and advertise the
show, SO they permitted him to hold
his church services in the tent, begin
ming at IL O'Clock.
The novelty OF the affair soon
struck even the ~Chicagoans. Moody
got the crowds and the show got the
business, fer just as soon as the church
services were over we opened the kid
show on the outside, and put every
available man at work selling tickets
inside and out. The result was that
during our season there we played to
big houses at Sunday matinees. We
started the big show soon after the
benediction."
