The Time to make an investment Is
while an enterprise is shaping ITSELF
not after il has reached It's perfect
form 1t is hard TO make men under
stand this-it is hard to make men un-
derstand that this-the formative period
of an enterprise-is the ground nocr
period. when all big money is made
The mistake men make In making
investments is in waiting for DEAD
Sure THING. He who does this will
have to pay dollar for dollar for every
thing he gets. You can buy gold dol
lars for a hundred cents. but there IS
no profit In the investment.
The men who make the big money in
every great enterprise are those who
come in at the beginning The history
of every great enterprise proves this
More money is made every day by good
judgment in investing money than all
the labor and wages in the country.
No one gets rich by lending their saw
ings to the banker for 4 per cent The
banker makes a fortune for himself by
having the nerve to invest YOUR money
in propositions you hesitate TO invest
in yourself. Just as long as men and
women remain savings bank depositors
they stay in the rut. 1t is creeping
way of getting ahead.

get out of the ordinary way OF doing
things he should invest a part Of his
savings each year Fifty or hundred
dollars invested may be the means of
making a man independent for life.
