MUST BE A LIVE WIRE
SUCCESSFUL MAN GETS FATE'S
MESSAGE INSTANTLY.
He is Quick to See Each Opportunity,
Small or Big. for Advancement
and Is Prompt to Act
at Right Time.

In the present trend Of the times
when every movement is regarded by
a pendulum of value there are thou.
sands Of opportunities going to waste
for want OF people to take them when
they come. AS matter Of fact the
history of reverses in business might
be summed up in two words, Lost
Opportunity"
Daily we hear the cry. IF had only
taken hold at the time" But when
fate knocked at his door no one
opened
In such cases the man who was
asleep wakes up to the realization OF
the chance that has passed. There is
no one who has not had the chance to
climb higher some time or other. But
when the psychological moment ar
rived he was not alive to the issue
Contrary TO the general belief. a
man is not confronted once, but many
times with possibilities for better
things. To succeed he must be quick
to see and prompt to act
The live wire in business is ready
to receive the message the moment II
arrives In truth, he constitutes the
third rail by which the wheels OF in
dustry are kept on the move He
feels every vibration that means ad.
vancement for himself; he also recog.
nizes the other fellow who is travelling
in the same line. He accords him the
square deal that he would be accorded
because he realizes to the full what
the step-by-step striving for success
means Thus the growing pains Of
each are minimized. If the business
world were full OF wide-awake indi.
viduals we would evolve economic
principles of industry heretofore un.
dreamed,
One OF the great problems that con.
fronts the people is the conservation
Of waste Waste is the result OF mis-
directed energy That is to say. the
attention has been focused in the op.
posite direction.
In a word. the man who might have
saved the situation was mapping" at
the time when he was needed most
Thus 1t resolves itself to pivotal
point showing that the man who is
caught mapping not only Injuries him
self, but causes a sequence OF loss
Another momentous matter on the
subject is the fact that many men are
on the lookout for big opportunity
and overlook the smaller or seeming
lesser thing (which OF itself Is a fal.
lacy. 1t is the small opportunities
seized and realized that have made
the big men
They have grasped the little meas
ures and have made them measures to
the full. They have appreciated the
small profit, and thus the larger has

ter of the location of the county seat

Governor Wilson embodies the spirit
Of real and rational progress. that he is
neither reaetionary upon the-one hand
nor revolutionary upon the other, that
he personities that spirit OF progress
which has characterized the race and
which must characterize the race until
ultimate decay begins. The people Of
Oklahoma favor the nomination of a
democrat who is both worthy to win
and able to win. They believe that
Wilson will win, that Wilson bears the
double charm Of ability and available
ity. These were the words, we con-
jured with This and This only is
the witcheraft | have used" | may
add that the people of Oklahoma were
not unaffected by the fact that a west
ern man is running against Wilson in
the west. a southern man running
against him in the south and a north
ern man running against him in the
north. They were unwilling to sup
pose or suspect a triple alliance but
they know that if anything should
happen hereafter which sayored of
such an alliance ii would tend rather
to hinder than to insure a united de-
mocraey and to dim rather than to
brighten the prospects of a splendid
democratic triumph in November
next"
