SOME THINGS
and OTHER THINGS

The only path to prosperity is the
rugged path of the pioneer.
Education is efficiency.
There is no magic formula for sue
cess.
There is plenty of room for sky
scraping careers.
If you do not grow, keep still. Noise
does not count these days.
I pity any man who was born with q
fixed future-a future according to
what pa and ma provided.
1 do not think much of plays that try
to reproduce the past. That is the rea-
son pageants have not largely appealed
to the people. The past you know was
bad enough without having to witness
its reproduction.
We are getting more, paying less, we
have more privileges, more independ-
ence, more absolute rights than any
generation since Adam developed an
appetite for apples.
AS you climb the Hills Of Chance you
will discover new peaks. The hands. OF
achievement are always in advance and
beckon you on.
There were never any ''good ole
times" If you will twist that frowr
into a smile and that grumble into g
cheer, you will find your best ''times'
are today.
When you stop to think about it, you
conclude that the Stone Age, Bronzs
Age, Age of Heroes, OF Art and Explor
alton, were puny periods compared IL
the Now.
Most of the seeming fools Of today
are the philosophers of tomorrow. We
usually stone the man before we rear Z
stone, you know.
We always rebuke our benefacters
We jeer innovation but loudly chez
orations.
IF you will pass around the Reef Of
Ridicule, you viii find great ideals tina
/ have been wrecked and lost to civiliza
ton.
No one has ever travelled to the EN-
Of the Great Road-as you well know
you cannot reach perfection, you enl,,
approach it.
There seems to be a new race 0
giants on earth-huge adventures VIII
dare to dream and then translate thei
dreams into realities.
If you have failed se add new teols I

hard to do efficient work next year.

desire to return~our thanks to Judge
Dallas Grover of Salina, for MS able

shining instruments.
Nor would we overlook Captain
Harris with his fine turn out of uni

One Thing Seems Certain and

ness a Live Spectacle.
FIRMS BUILD OWN FLOATS

There Is an air Of mystery about the
industrial parade to be held in Omaha
October ) in the afternoon.
The mystery comes about through
the fact that the various manufacture
ing and industrial concerns who are
entering the parade are building their
floats at their respective plants, and
no one except the artificer building
them has as yet seen them.
1t Is known only that some thirty
~eorncerns have definitely entered,
and are preparing floats or groups
to put on the street in this parade.
Assurance is given that the big in
dustries Of Omaha will be represented
In the highly decorated floats that will
parade the streets.
Make Candy on Streets.
1t Is assumed there will be wagon
representing the candy factory, max
ing candy on the streets and perhaps
tossing out few choice bits to the
children on the sidewalks. 1t is as
sumed there will be float manned by
-aproned bakers kneading bread
and rolling out Scent and l0-cent
loaves.
1t is assumed there will be float in
which the baking Of fancy biscuits and
crackers will be illustrated. There
may be float upon which the manu-
facture Of brick and cement blocks
will be in progress. Another may be
showing the manufacture Of shirts and
overalls. Another may demonstrate
