The II FELLOW.

One does not live very long before
he begins to realize the power of an
atmosphere, an attitude toward the
other fellow. 1t speaks without speak
ing. What we think of the other fell
low, our unselfish kindness to him or
our selfish calculation about him, all
express itself sooner or later, to his
nature, and conditions his response.
1t goes without saying that humor
is an humble influence, softening with
mirth the ragged inequalities of exist
ence and prompting tolerant views of
life. A humorist has recently OBJ
served that if we o~urselvesare set in
served that if we ourselves are set in
the other fellow it is st~ubbornness.
When the other fellow spends a lot
he is a "spendthrift." When we do it
it is because we are generous"
When the other fellow says what he
thinks, he is "spiteful." When We do
it we are frank" When the other
fellow takes time to do things he is
dead SLOW" When we do the same
we are deliberate" When the other
fellow carries a concealed weapon, he
is on the Offensive" When we do
likewise, we are on the defensive

Harry Rote, the diminutive forward
