CHIPS on THEIR SHOULDERS.

''The COLLINS II git We IL We don't
watch out
Thus the jlngoes OF England and
Germany to the Peoples OF those ooCa-
tries. whose governments are running
a race i'm naval equipment
England has long held the supremacy
OF the seas-ever since Nelson's vic
tory at Trafalgar. But now Germany
has built navy that rivals England's
war fleets. and John Bull In his right
little. tight little isle is dreaming O.
nights of the invasion of his coast by
the kaiser.
Whewl
There was a great fuss m parlia-
ment. Balfour stood up for the oppo-
sition 10 charge that the government
was letting Germany get ahead, and
AsquIth for the government sadly ad-
mitted it.
Whereupon little less than a panic
seized the newspapers and the people.
We must build more ironclad Dread
noughts. and quickly-four anyway,
and. IL possible. eight"
Pathetic?
1t certainly Is. England, with a big
national debt. has a multitude Of un-
employed and half starving people on
her hands. The tax burdened English
must go deeper into their pockets.
And Germany
The people OF that empire struggle
Of an immense military establishment
is added TO that of a costly navy.
And now both Germans and English
are under spell OF apprehension lest
one spend more money than the other.
IL would be humorous were ii not
pathetic. They are like two boys with
chips on their shoulders-"one Is
afraid. and the other dassent."
The probability OF war between those
two peoples. having so many interests
In common. and In these days Of The
Hague tribunals Is exceedingly remote.
These are christian powers" that
lay burdens that are hard to be borne
on the backs OF their common people.
who toll on short dinners for "a bare
subsistence and who see their children
doomed to Il similar fate, all because
OF the war game played by a few
statesmen.
The spectacle causes one to say TO
the aerial experimenters OF our time
more power 10 your elbows
May the time quickly come when q
few torpedoes dropped from an airshlp
can send To the bottom a whole feet of
Dreadnoughts. Then will the ~nginery
OF destruction be the best ally OF peace
and bring I'm the day
When the war drum throbs no longer
And the battlefiags are furled.

ADJUSTMENT.

One, OF the secrets OF successful Ilv.
Ing is the art OF adjusting oneself to
changed conditions.
Make up your mind once for all that
the world will not adapt itself to you;
you must adapt yourself to the world.
Cultivate adaptability.
In nature everything fits-adjusts It.
self to surroundings. Animal. plant.
star. universe-each must fit itself 10
environment.
Man alone tries to fight natural law
and fails.
The North American Indians defied
this law. They would not conform to
their surroundings. AS n consequence
the Indians are a disappearing race.
Mound builders. cliff dwellers. forest
ers. plains people-all disappeared or
are disappearing.
Also
New England tried 60 raise Indian
corn on its rocky soil and failed. Semi
arid western Kansas made a like exper.
iment and failed. When western Kan
sas finally adjusted itself and began to
raise wheat she began to feed the
world.
IL was so in dry farming"
When the pioneers OF eastern Colo
RADIO. Wyoming, eastern Oregon and
Idaho failed In their early experiments
1t was because they did not know how
to conserve the scanty rainfall by
proper culture. By adapting and ad-
1usting methods they have made the
desert to blossom as the rose.
1t is all matter OF adjustment-hnd-
Ing what you can do and doing It.
This is particularly true OF men.
Grant failed in business, but won
deathless fame in war. Goldsmith
wrote like an angel and talked like
poor Poll.''
The round man gets into the square
hole. and Vice versa, because of in
ability TO adapt himself.
Unadjusted life is failure because
II Is mistit.
Adaptability to circumstances marks
successful men. They do not try tc
alter the unalterable. They realize
how small they are and how big is the
universe. They see they must join the
logical procession OF affairs II they are
TO get anywhere.
You can only develop yourself as you
subscribe to things as they are.
He Is the fortunate man who can be
at the right place and say the right
word and do the right thing at the
right time.
Adjustment OF his life to surround
ings Is the secret OF that ability.
No man can get on In this world If
he Is a misfit.
