THE YOUNG MANS OPENING.

The young man who gets behind a
bank pass book just as soon as he starts
to earn money is going to get to the
place very rapidly where the pass book
will make him rich man. not so much
from its princely contents as from the
fact that when a business opportunity
comes along he is going to be able to
grasp it and get his first real grip on
success and prosperity.
The career of every man. young or
old. is dotted here and there with
chances to make money. Nothing can
prevent the success of the man who has
a little money ahead of immediate needs.
with which to grasp a business chance.
The banks which are advertising in
this paper invite the accounts OF young
men. promising every courtesy and at
tention. however small their balances
may be.
All big depositors began small. and a
bank account grows rapidly after 1t is
once started. The first thousand dollars
is harder to get ahead than the next two
thousand. Every day you wait puts you
one more day behind. Other fellows are

BORAH ENTITLED no CREDIT.

There Is no man IN congress who
Is entitled TO more credit for the la

vide Tor the election OF United
States Senators by dlrec. vote than
Senator Borah OF Idaho.
Ever since he entered the Senate
he has been an aggressive advocate
Of the proposed change which has
been under consideration at differ
mi times for nearly "a hundred
years.
Just as Senator Hepburn was
able to enforce the enactmet of the
Pure Food bin after repeated at
tempts have been made covering a
period of twenty years. Senate Boz
rah has forced the enactment of the
law amending the constitution as
above indicated.
With the term commencing March
1915, every man to be chosen to
the Senate must now be elected b
the people. Many legislatures have
adjourned until 1915. and in these
states some confusion may result,
but Senator Borah. zone of the best
constitutional lawyers In the Sem
ate'-as referred to by the Wash
ingotn Post said that all sub
sequent elections must now come
under this amendment. Special SEES
sions of the legislature will be urg-
ed In many states to prepare the
machinery for senatorial elections.
Discussing the Importance Of the
amendment, Mr.. Borah said:
1T will do away with deadlocks
and scandals in state legislatures
and will remove THE corrupting in
fluences that have done SO much to
destroy the confidence Of the people
in their legislatures. 1t is safe to
say that nine-tenths of the o
ruption engendered in state legisla-
lures has it's source in senatorial
elections.

,RREsPoMsielLlTY.

We ask the question often why
our college graduates do not take
a more active part in some form
of social service so splendldiy
organized by the modern civ
church. Some may answer TINS
question by insisting that II Is
due to a certain lack In their COL
lecee training; that the attention
Of the undergraduate has NOT
been sufficiently directed to tne
responsibilities Of life and 10 the
Duties he must assume when he
leaves his college pursuits De-
hind him. Others there may be
who would say that the difficulty
is with the church; that its
claims are not sufficiently strong
nor sufficiently urgent to COM
mand the allegiance Of our young
graduates as they enter upon
their life work. There may be
some truth in each OF these
criticisms. Both college and
church may be partly at fault.
There is. however. a natural tend
ency due to the combined fac
tors of human nature on the one
hand and its environment on the
other which should be definitely
recognized in order that 1T may
be intelligently cO~unteracted.
This Is the tendency which de-
velops q habit Of responsibility
due to an intense concentration
Of effort upon a necessarily mar
row field of interests. To get a
start in life, to be able to hold
ones own in the strenuous COM
petition Of the age, to compel
recognition as an authority on
ones subject. to control men and
events. to command a respectful
hearing amid the many clam
orous voices of the world and to
win the place Of a peer among
ones contemporaries this Is no
slight undertaking. 1t means
perseverance, courage and an in
domitable spirit. - John Grier
