Very few people are ambidextrous;
that is, able TO use the left hand as
readily and skillfully as the right.
But there is an amusing story of one
Irishman who was careful to cultivate
that art. When he was signing ar

his name with his right hand, and
then changed the pen to his left hand,
and finished 1t.

SOME THINGS -.
and OTHER THINGS

The way to give boy chance IS 20
teach him self-reliance, to stand alone,
and then the world will find him. We
take our hats off to the boy who knows
how to do things.
If you waste time you do not need,
you will need time you do not have.
Nine times out of ten you will work
in your own business the way you work
for the other fellow. You know by this
rule whether you are success or fail
ure.
If you thiRk things out in spare mo-
ments, you will at least double your
life and more than double your useful
ness.
AS soon as the last goodbye is
said, get busy.
No man will succeed unless he is will
ing to work for a start. No man will
ever be really successful unless he is
willing to work for a start in the thing
he prefers doing.
A man is better off working at any
price than to spend his time looking for
work One is working, struggling
man; the other is tramping hobo.
Most men have not found themselves
at thirty-fve years of age. The main
thing up to that age is, have you been
storing up useful information for the
day of life-discovery.
What most men need is a burning de-
sire that will arouse all of their ambi-
ton. Men need more grit, more nerve,
more 'get-up-and-git.
to things. The diff rence between put
ting snap into your work and just sim
ply doing it, is precisely the difference
between success and failure.
Things to be done are not half as
hard to do as they seem to be. Choose
what you want to do, get into the great
world-''go -a-round, and tn climb to
the stars.
I Since the world is looking for men,
( join the great chorus and honestly help
/ TO prolong the labor psalm of life. The
world wants men who dare to bear hon
( est opinion to the Hottest seat and help
/ to establish universal freedom among
all classes of men.
/ Any young man of sense knows the
/ evil effects of drink, and yet we find
some of them fout here in Kansas"
making public fools of themselves.
/ They may think it looks smart, but
their smartness is simply breaking
( their poor mothers hearts. This is the
age that is demanding a deep current
young men. The age needs courage
/ that can say NO to the damnable,
weakening traditions of a foolish an
cestry.
I am reaching the conclusion that
there should be a national law passed
/ forcing every boy to spend at least two
years of his educational life in the
/ country on some farm.
/ No man will ever be able to think
clearly, quickly and decide instantly
unless he is placed in position where
he is forced to figure his way out.
The reason you fail is because you
do not do your t'dead level best" Make

this day and age no place for such men
in our civilization. They were only the
freaks of crude age,
