Wrong Standards.
ST. LOUIS

Success is the watcword of
the day. College commence
ment orators have for years
been telling young men and
women that results count, and
to achieve success is the one
aim in life.
The point hinges on what is
considered success.
The standard may be wrong.
A man may achieve success as
a burglar. Another may achieve
success as a money clincher in
questionable ways.
Success is a fine motto if the
standard is right.
The majority consider a man
a success who has made and &C
,cumulated a vast amount of
money,
So he is in that one particu-
lar at least,
Many a man is success as a
man and a citizsu who may
have fought poverty and money
stringency all his life,
No man is a success who has
achieved his ambitions at the
sacrifice of his own ideals of
right. and justice and manhood.
The man who has the correct
standards of honor, and truth
and honesty and citizenship and
of his duty to his neighbor and
state, or government, and lives
up to them is a very great sue
cess.
If he has accumulated money
honestly as he moved along in
this course and feels in his own
mind and conscience that he has
been true to himself and his
standards it is we'll and good.
His money and property, in
case of this kind, is not to his
discredit.
If, however, with all his mon,
ey he feels that he has been un
true to the standard of honest
manhood, if he has been tricky,
and dishonest and uuderminin
and dishouorable although tue
world, in a general way, knows
nothing of it he is the most mis-
cradle OF failures.
Success may be the most
wretched of failures if the
wrong standard of success has
been adopted.
1t is all in the man and the
standard he has, -Ex.
