GIVES SECRET OF SUCCESS
George w. Perkins Method Is to Live
Every Day as If 1t Were to Be
the Only One.

my own method has been to live
every day as though it was the only
day had to live, and to crowd every
thing possible into that day. Pay no
attention to the clock or what you
are paid, but work and live for all
that is in it-just as you play foot
ball-and everything else will take
care of ITSELF" said George w. Per
kins.
"The head of the table is the place
where there is most room 1t is the
tree that grows and grows until it
overtops the others that gets the most
air and sunshine. The thing for the
young man to do is to strive with all
the energy he possesses to excel in
actual ability.
Pull is not necessary. Nor should
young man bother too much about
his wages. l never asked an increase
in my life. You can command sooner
or later what you are entitled to-if
you pre-eminently deserve it.
"But you have got to be ultra-profi-
cient in some particular thing. You
must stand out and do it better than
the fellows around you whether you
are an office boy, a stenographer or an
executive. You must use your head
as well as your hands. Don't be afraid
to do extra work lest it interfere sith
your theater going. I don't go to the
theater half dozen times during the
winter, not that 1 don't like it, but
there are other things more worth do
ing."-Leslies Weekly.

EMPRESS THEATER
Sunday Empress.

Everyone loves a race horse, and
who does not delight in the excitements
OF a race course.
Alta Boys last race is shown at the
Empress Sunday in striking film
production. The play is staged around
one Of the popular southern race tracks
in which a beautiful thoroughbred
plays the prominent part. A winsome
heroine and the racer make an inter-
esting pair where love me, love my
horse is just as true and the penal
ties for non compliance with mat
mandate are Just as severe as with
love me, love my dog"
The rare intelligence exhibited by
this equine is filmed in truly re-
markable way. The tense, quivering
and maddening desire Of the thorough
bred to win his races furnishes plenty
of excitement.
Alta Boy is shown in two fast races.

grand stand, the assembling of the
horses at the starting post, the betting
