This is the dreamer's day. For
decade or two the dreamers Of dreams
had a lovely time of it; matertaiisTn
was master and riches reigned. But
this could not last Throughout the
new world there is today a. revival OF
idealism which expresses itself by
cleaner politics. saners more honest
finance, and a general pursuit OF the
nobler human goals concerning which
the best of men have ever dreamed,
and for which. they have hoped. me
background today, while those VINO
see visions of humanity'S betterment
are to the fore.
The oldest of the stories OF those
who dared to dream and then to
transform their dreams into actually
is the familiar one of the romance OF
Jacobs son.. The experiences OF
Joseph are one of all childhood's IN
effaceable memories; and they are
characters making material for child
hood older grown. Joseph, the one
prominent Old Testament character to
whose detriment nothing is related, is
a type of success that fits in with
the mood of the hour.
A Story of '%Suceess.''
If success consists in the qualities
of a mans own nature. then the man
who dreams must be accorded a palm.
For it is no small prize to be able to
see, amid sordid and uncongenial sur
roundings, the better lot that is real
only to the eye Of imagination The
confessed curse of the lives of many
immensely rich men is that they have
lost their power to dream. The fac
ulty of spiritual vision has been afro
phied by a grubbing. among base
metals and base men. The dreamer,
however barren his environment, can
always enjoy himself, which is more
than can be said of many persons
upon whom other enjoyments have
begun to pail. This art of carrying
ones own world about in ones spirit
is assuredIy to be rated as a success in
itself; "for what shall it profit man
if he gain the whole world and lose
his own soul %
Young Joseph dreamed; the lad of
seventeen was the father of the man

as David. the shepherd boy, put into

came to him in the lonely hours Of
vigil by the sheep, and as the Boy of

Many Routes to the Right Goal.

high aims, always turn out to his
betterment. Although Joseph did not
know it, that hole in the dark cistern
was the shortest route to the fulfill
meut of his dreams Had events moved
prosrerously with him, had he remain
ed ct home as the petted, spoiled son
of his father, he might have become
another schening Jacob. or, that pa
theric figure, an idle, nerveless dream
er, without force to transmute his
dreams into realities. A hard lot makes
a hardy life; it needs the rod of that
stern schoolmaster. Adversely, to bring
most men up to anlc unit to anything.
