The most Borrowing spectacle i'm the
world is that of the man who has
abandoned hope. because life is prac-
tically over with him. He sees no
star shining before him. His eyes
behold only the mists of uncertainty
and helplessness. He Sropes where he
should run and he hesitatcs where lac
should act with the utmost certainty.
There is something inspiring and
invigoratnS about the man who is
hopeful. He catches you up i'm the
strength of his fancy and carries YOU
forward i'm spite of himself He makes
you believe in the future because he
believes in it. He makes you believe

must have these qualities. Every sue

we start out with hope ever before

KEEPING HOPE ALIVE

Hope is the star of destiny 1t is

The CHANGE in the Cabinet.

me Sndnqe w NHo SdpiUcks
President Taft was able to fill more
than half his term of office without
making a change in his cabinet This
is "A notable record.
II is well known. however, that Sec
rotary BaIlinger would have retired
long ago il he could have done so
with respect To- himself. The con-
slant fire upon him from his enemies
kept him i'm a place which became
Ciista steful to him i'm the very first
weeks of his experience at the head
of the department of the interior. In
recent years. at any rate, no man in
high office has been so constantly
harasscd as was Mr.. Taft's first sec
rotary of the interior II was Mr..
RallinGcr's misfortune to he appointed
To- an office which the many friends
of Secretary Garfield had already ap-
propriatcd for Mr. Garfield. Had Mr.
BaIlinger- been saint from heaven,
found his position much more com
Portable without waiting to give
Mr.. Rallingcr an opportunity To define
his policy on any Of the questions
before his department, the numerous
friends of former Secretary Garfield
raised cry that Secretary BallinGer
proposed TO undo" all the reclama-
ton and conservation work which
Secretary Garfield had left unfinished.
Secretary Ballinger was painted as
the arch enemy of the people" and
sensational press. eager to join in
the batting of a cabinet minister. kept
UP the hue and cry 1t was i'm vain
that Secretary Ballingcr asked that
his record be permitted to speak for
him as he should make it. 1t is in
vain, even now. for fair-minded peo-
pie to point out that the record of
Mr.. Ballinger at the head OF the most
complex department in the govern
ment shows that he has been CON
sistentIy conscientious in the dis
charge of duty. The verdict against
him was made up before he had actu-
ally taken charge Of the department.
and possibly for some time to come
this verdict will stand as the judS
ment of the country. But in the
course of time. history will do justice
to the record made by the retiring
secretary.
The most persistent assailsnt of the
Taft administration will. however. find
difficulty in framing an unfriendly
criticism of his new choice for secre-
tary of the interior Mr. Walter
Lowrie Fisher has been noted for
many years as an ardent advocate of
the conservation policies which have
given fame to Mr.. Clifford Pinchot
Pinchot. In addition to this. he is.
and always has been, one of the most
progressive of ''progressives" in his
advocacy of sane reform in business
and i'm politics One of the first Of
ficers of the municipal voters league
of Chicago, he has been largely in
strumentaI i'm the achievement of sub
stantial reforms i'm that city. The
most that Mr. Taft's enemies can
charge against Mr.. Fisher is that he
is one of Mr. Tafts intimate friends
But in the judgment of the great and
sensible majority in this country. one
of the best things that can be said of
a man is that William Howard Taft.
