BE SOMEBODY"

Most of us go with the current be-
| cause 1t is easier to drift than to take
up the oars and pull up stream.
| Be somebody
Most of us lack individualism or as
| we usually put it, individuality.
| Most of us are prone to be content
| with things as they are We are con
! tent to be like other people. Conven-
tfonality gets in the way of individ
uality. What others do determines
what we do.
The person with individuality stands
out, looms large There are so few
Of him
To cultivate your personality and
make 1t force you must assert it.
You cannot do that by going along
the line of least resistance You must
often go along the line of MOST re-
sistance. And that helps some. be-
! cause resistance overcome makes for
forcefuI character.
The tendency today is toward max
ing men alike. turning them out as II
by molds-all Of pattern.
Capitalization of industry, combina-
ton, puts men into herds=-and con-
trolls the herds.
The mere unit Of society-the YOU
will, if it is not careful, be merged
into the crowd. But if the you-the
unit-wll protest and persist it will
get above the crowd and
Be somebody
Every man who has become some
body. who has done things, has been
dependent. not upon conditions, not
upon relatives nor upon society nor
upon luck. but upon HIMSELF.
To be somebody one must be differ
ent from everybody.
There is one grave danger in trying
to be somebody. in trying to assert
oneself, in trying to be different from
everybody.
If everybody sees that in trying to
be somebody, in holding yourself above
the crowd, you are egotistic in your
effort and conceited in your spirit
why-the crowd will pull you down
to its level, and justly.
If you want to be somebody you
must be modest about it. All great
souls are modest and helpful and
kindly.
Remember, you are not asserting
yourself arrogantly over others. You
are asserting yourself over your
LOWER SELF, over your suhlimal
self. You are making your HIGHER
SELF DOMINANT.
Be somebody-within yourself, Of
yourself, by yourself.
Be somebody-in your own soul.

ROOSEVELT RETIRED.

In POLITICAL official sense. Theodore
Roosevelt is no more. His successor is
w. II. Taft The two men represent
extremes Roosevelt's term OF office has
been marked with an extraordinary and
an exceptional demonstration of self
will, stubborn, dominant persistent. an
tagonistic personality
He has been frequently compared
to 'the bull in the china shop and yet
with tempestuous radicalism his smash
ing of precedents. his leapinn over rules,
his defiance of the leaders OF his party
have won for him the admiration of a
large percentage of the American people
who will applaud bodness, even the ex-
IRENE of audacity
1t will not be denied that towards the
close of Roosevelt's administration there
had been aroused throughout the Nation
feeling Of unrest resulting from too
much Rooscveltism Having had and
experienced the fullest measure of
"strenlousness' the people will appre-
c1ate more conservative and concilia-
tory administration which is promised
through Mr.. Taft, who, while not de-
parting from his obligations to his party,
promises to maintain policy that will
be less partisan and offensive than was
Rooseve1t's.

MOTHERS OF GREAT MEN.

When you trace the beginnings OF a
great man. behind him you will find a
noble mother.
It is notable that great men seldom
have great sons. Is it because the

vided by two? Unless he has a great
mother as well as great father the
son may inherit but half his fathers
talent
On the other hand, if the son has a
great mother his Inheritance seems to
be multiplied by two, so equable are
the laws Of heredity.
Many great men have been the sons
Of weak or dissolute fathers. The
mother factor counted
Note the Roman Gracchi.
The mother Of the Gracchi refused
the hand Of a king and the crown Of a
queen to devote herself to her sons.
How great was her reward!
The father Of Savonarola was prof.

But go back to his mother. There
you find the nobility of nature. the su-
Drene moral courage. Of the great
