THE RACE OF LIFE.
A Talk With the Boys.
Progressive Farmer.)


tProbably no American writer has
done SO much to inspire young men
with ambition as Dr.. Orison SWEET
Marden. For many years he was ed
itor OF a magazine called Success"
He is also the author Of several in
spring books, Pushing to the
Front" Rising in the World" "He
Can Who Thinks He Can" "Eyerv
Man King" "Be Good to Your
self, etc. Our boys will do well to
take to heart his message herewith J
1.-The World Makes Way for the DE.
termincd Man."
TO the Boys on Southern Farms:
Your effort to succeed depends ell
tirely on the amount of energy and
will power back Of it. II there is
not enough vigor, enough enthusi-
asm, enough sheer grit and d .ter-
mination to carry you past all ohsta-
cles to your mark, you have no one
but yourself to blame. No one but
yourself can generate the power that
will carry you to your goal.
Ill health or personal deformity
may sometimes hold one back
though there are numerous instances
of success in spite Of them--bu. in
the vast majority Of cases the reason
young people fail in getting a good
start in life or in ultimately reach
ing their goal is because there is NO
ENERGY IN THEIR RESOLUTION.
NO GRIT IN THEIR DETERMlNA-
TION. They peter out after few
rebuffs. Two or three setbacks take
the edge off their determination.
There Is no projectile force back Of
their feeble efforts. They do no: re-.
alize that success in anything wtrth
while is the result OF tremendous
resolution, vigorous self-faith, and
work, work, work-steady, conscien-
tious. wholc-hearted, unremitting
work. Light resolve. half-hearted
efforts. Indifferent. Intermittent work

thing and never will

your might. There is no such thing

CIVIL WAR PARALLEL DRAWN.
Frank Simmonds Figuring on Even
Qualities In Europe.

For two years the South kept the
initiative. She struck at Antietam,
at Gettysburg, at Shiloh. Three
times. twice in the east and once in
the West. she sought decision. She
failed, and with Gettys burg, and the
concomitant fall of Vicksburg she
lost the initiative forever, says
Frank H. Simmonds, in American
Reviews Of Reviews. Henceforth It
became question not Of conuuer-
ing the North, but of holding it off
until the people OF the North wea
lied Of the sterile sacrifices and tie
terrible cost
1t took nearly two years after
Gettysburg to bring Appomattox,
Grants great offensive, of which the
North expected so much, led only to
the drawn battles Of The Wilderness
and Spottsylvania and the shambles
of Cold fiarbor in 1864. Yet in this
terrible campaign, counted as fail
ure at the moment. Grant won the
war. The South had neither the
men nor the resources to replace
the losses. While the lines before
Richmond still held the Confederacv
crumbled to dust.
Now this is in sum what the allies
expect to happen in the case of Ger
many. They expect that the Ger
mans and the Austrians will no Ion
ger be able to replace casualties as
the British, the Russians, and the
Italians patiently can. Russia's man
supply is ineXhaustible; she has al
ready proved this. Britain is only
beginning to draw heavily on hers.
Italy has made no draft to sneak of.
But France. like Germany and Aus
tria, is approaching, if she has not
reached, that point whe she can no
longer send fresh men to the front to
replace losses, and each casualty,
therefore, diminishes the total of the
men in the line.
The allies believe that the Ger
mans and Austrians are holding lines
far too extended for their numbers.
Lee did this at Richmond and lost
his army. Napoleon did this in
Eastern Germany in his last German
campaign and suffered defeat, which
turned out to be fatal The allies
believe that by steady and concerted
attacks upon all fronts they will
presently wear the Germans and
Austrians down to the point where
they must shorten their lines or
court disaster. But to shorten the
lines is to confess defeat To evac-
uatc France or Poland is to lose the
war absolutely, because these are the
prizes Germany holds against her
lost colonies and ocean commerce.

June Is. 1916:
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filed
Peaceful be thy silent slumber,
Peaceful in thy grave so low,
Thou no more will join our number.
Thou no more our sorrows know.
Yet again we hope to meet thee
When the day Of life Is fled,
And in heaven with joys to greet
thee,
Where no farewell tears are shed.

The Oklahoma College for Women

where earnest young women come to

ident Austin sometimes finds 1t nee
essary to dispel mistaken ideas OF Just
what school exclusively for girls in
the state Of Oklahoma stands for and
what is expected and demanded Of
those who enroll The following let
ter was recently received from young
woman:
Dear Mr. Austin viii you please
send me your catalogue? And tell me
also how many privileges do you al
low the girls? What time are they to
be in at night? What are the lowest
grades you teach? Have you any pri-
vate rooms for girls who want them?'
The young woman has already re-
ceived the following communication
from President Austin:
My dear Miss : am sending
you a catalogue under separate cover.
With reference to the privileges al
lowed the girls. that is rather hard
question to answer fully in letter.
The young ladies' here receive every
consideration, and we have but few
who object to the regulations. This
is not a society school, but school
where young women come to work
You ask about what time the girls
are to be in at night I will just say
that they are not to be anywhere else

Question Whether ChhOpracIOrs viii Be

Considerable interest is being
aroused in osteopathic and chiroprac-
tic circles over the designation of the
latter as being in way officially
identified with usteopathy Both
branches disclaim in any way with
the other, AND these disclaimers have
found their way into the press Of the
state
According to a recent ruling Of the
attorney general, chiropractics, BY vir.
tue Of their manipulation Of the body
IN relieving bodily ailments, should be
compelled to appear before the medi-
cal examining board and pass the reg
ular examination before being permit
ted to practice in Oklahoma So far
as could be ascertained in Cbickasha
this morning this ruling. If enforced,
will affect but one practitioner in the
county, j. p Kelly. of this city.
When seen this morning Dr. Kelly
expressed no uneasiness over the out
come. THE question has come up so
often in this and other states and has
been disposed of favorably to the Chi
fopractic, that it is not likely that
any action will be taken in Oklahoma.
Osteopaths have so frequently declar-
ed that the two have nothing in com
mon. or rather are not Identical. that
this has now become a matter of rec

matter further referring the Express
to the reply to the attorney general
which was made by Willard Carver,
