To make the ~Ost of dull hours, to
make the best of dull people, to like a
poor jest better than none, to wear a
thread-bare coat like gentleman, to
be outyoted with smile, to hitch your
wagon to the old horse, if no star is
handy-that is wholesome philosophy

The young man who says he cannot
succeed in such country as this, with
all its magnificent opportunities, is
the poorest kind of a stick. WHY.
there are men today who when they
see that a young man has the right
kind of pluck, are willing to advance
his money to build up his business and
give him start These are the young
men, however, who stick, dig and save.

"The boy is the father of the man
in more ways than one. The boy who
is willing to do faithful labor, either
at home Or away from home, for little
more than his board and clothes, is

1t is the boy who attends strictly t.
