points OF worldly success.
Be Truthful

Be Proud
a proud man cannot be mean.
A mean man has no right TO
Be Honest
Credit is the only premium on
honesty. Run In debt only when
necessary. and not then unless
you know you can pay.
Love You1e,f
II you don't, you cannot love
anybody else manfully.
Accumulate
The more you own the more
power you will have.
Never Look Back
You can't help the mistakes
you have made Don't make
any more. Don't think of what
you have achieved. hut Of what
you may accomplish.
% What You Can Do Dst
A man who WAS born to make

short TO do two things. Make
your clo,hespins better than
anybody else. 1t is the royal
road to success
