RIDGE ROAD is
INCONvENlEN

Refusal of the Gary and Southern
Traction company and the Gary and
Interurban railway company to come to
any agreement over certain traction
problems is causing Inconvenience. In
addition to this the poor service afford
ed by the former line is the cause of
many protests

Although the Gary and Interurban's
franchise states that 1t must accept and
give transfers to other lines SO far it
has made no move in this direction and
in the meantime those living below the
Little Calumet river must pay ten
cent fare to reach the steel mills. A
nickel fare was promised and eventual
ly this will be had. Several efforts
have been made to have the two COM
panies get together on the single fare
proposition but so far no Roadway has
been gained. 1t is suggested that the

On top of these troubles is the queer
operating schedule of the Gary and
Southern between Lottaviile and Caiu-
met bridge. Cars do not begin to
operate until half past seven o'clock IN
the morning-too late to be of any use
to the steel workers who must walk tn
Calumet bridge before they reach the
Gary & Interurban's southern terminus.
Cars cease running at five o'clock in
the evening-too late for those return
ing from work. 1t is said that II the
Gary and Southern would add an extra
train crew that all of the present
troubles as far as schedules are con-
cerned would be eliminated. AS it Is

In million ways men achieve success, big
or little
One man becomes rich and useful because
ne sees the possibility of building railroad
across the continent, or because, like Cecil
Rhodes, his mind can carve out an empire in
Africa.
And another simply sees the opportunity
of putting one dollar on top of another, getting
more dollars as rapidly as possible, keeping
them all and spending nOne-and he develops
into a Russell Sage whose millions, left to
wise and generous woman, are now doing so
much good in the world.
There is something almost human and in
teIligent, something mysteriOusly knowing in
opportunity.
1t comes toward you so very slowly that
you can't help seeing it, if you WILL see It,
1t creeps up like snail, it passes you, it seems
to make up it's mind that you are not the per-
son to seize opportunity AND 1T IS GONE
IN A SECOND.
Some of us miss opportunity because we
are too dull to try And others let opportunity
go by, because we are too much startled when
we see it to take hold of it.
We are like the man who sees his first deer
in the forest and fOrgets to use his gun.
Such picture and such an editorial as this
are useless unless they can persuade readers
to think of their own opportunities their own
neglected chances, and fill them with deter
minatOn to watch for and seize the next OPP
pOrtunity that shall come along.
Fortunately. a long procession of slowly
moving opportunities meets all of us. And
fortunately, also, in some form. opportunity
is before us all the time.
The cOmmOnest form, one most often
neglected, and the safest opportunity for the
average man to seize is HARD WORK.
There is scarcely sane, average, mOder-
ately healthy human being that could not end
life comfortable and prosperous, if he would
seize the two possibilities always with us
HARD WORK AND ECONOMY.
All of us still have opportunities ahead if
we will look out for them. For instance:
Health means power, and power means
opportunity.
Every one of us can improve his health if
he will. Sensible living, temperate eating and
drinking, regular sleep. WITHOUT ADDED

Whenever you see a good cartoon, encOur-
age the young people to think about it and
formulate their thoughts. Let them read the
editorial afterward if they choose. But one
thought OF THEIR OWN is worth many col
umns and pages written out for them.
What is OPPORTUNITY? 1t is the
chance to do something, to get something, to
achieve something, to climb out of the rut, To
BE SOMEBODY of value in the world.
Opportunity is life itself. That which we
call cOnScientiOusness or soul, or thought, can
be imagined floating in infinite space without
any material body to bring it in contact with
the world.
Then thought is put into the body. The
body is able to do its part in world OF solid
matter. and of other bodies And with the
coming of life OPPORTUNITY COMES.
There are millions of opportunities around
us every day. Some of them we see, and we
know that they are beyond u.s. or we believe
that they are beyond us, and we do not try.
Others we see, and look upon them as be-
meath us-and in considering an opportunity
too low, we often miss the opportunity that
is the best.
One man who began poor and died very
rich, in Chicago, had little stand on the
street and sold fruit. He saw an opportunity
to add dried fruit to his fresh fruit, and he
did that.
He saw the opportunity to add part of
window to his little fruit stand, and to have
tea and coffee for sale in small, neat packages.
He did that.
He died the biggest coffee man in the cOun-
trv. with more millions than he needed Stand
ing in front of his cheap, rickety fruit stand,
he saw opportunity coming and he was ready
for it.
Thomas A. Edison sat at his key. sending
TELEGRAPH messages like millions of others.
His brain enabled him to see an OppOr-
tunity. which was the sending of more than
one message over the same wire.
He didn't simply think about it, speculate
about it, and drop it. HE MADE IT A
REALITY.
When opportunity came crawling toward
Edison it found him ready.
That is why everybody in the world knows
about Thomas A. Edison
In youth we have the opportunity to alb
sOrb information, and in mature years we
have the opportunity TO USE IT.
Too often we neglect the opportunity in
youth and spend the later years regretting that
the opportunity was neglected
There are as many opportunities as there
are human beings in the world, or very nearly
