Obstacles to Overcome.

Joseph had many difficulties to
face ana some obstacles which Il
seemed were impossible to over
come. yet he was undaunted and nev
er gave up. The heights of success
are not reached at one bound, fame
is not attained in a day. and great
ness is not thing OF chance. All
the worlds great reformers have
succeeded only after mighty strug-
giles and conflicts. Nothing is worth
while that does not cost some ef-
fort and sacrifice. There Is no royal
road TO success and glory. Bunyon
had it not been for the Bedford
Jail. He speaks to millions today
where he could only have spoken
to hundreds had il not been for
the Affections which he had to en-
dure. There would have been no
Paradise Lost had 1t not been for
the fact that Milton was shut out
from the glories of this world.
This notion OF ours has reached
its splendid greatness and world
wide renown by the way of the val
ley of suffering and the hills OF ad-
yersity The difficulties which have
arisen before her, the stupendous
obstacles which she has had to
surmount have been stepping stones
Oh which she has mounted to nObler
things. Our victories have cost u
sweat and blood.
You Must Pay the Price OF Greatness
You must win your battles by your

that you may press on in the educa-
tional world TO something higher.
