LUCK NO FACTOR
TOWARD SUCCESS
Never ACCompIiSheS Anything
of Permanent Value,
Says Banker.
BY STANLEY M'INTOSH
ctary-TrcaSurer Mishawaka
Trust & Savings Co.


No great thing of permanent val
ue was ever accomplished in this
world by luck. Among people who
succeed there are a certain number
who are called lucky. whose ad-
yancement is attributed, By the un-
thinking to that imaginary some
thing called luck
While il is true that il frequently
seems as though circumstances con-
spire TO favor some individual, il is
equally true that no matter how fav-
orable circumstances may be, one
cannot derive any lasting benefit
from them unless one is ready and
able 20 avail oneself of the advant-
ages they offer This is precisely the
secret of so-called luck.
Success No Accident.
Success is no accident and it will
be found or investigat ton that be
hind what appears 10 be the luck Of
moment are years of careful
thought and preparation which en-
able a person 10 seize the oppJrtu-
nifty that arises without delay and
without fear OF failure.
1t is within the power OF everyone
70 mt himself for business success so
that when his opportunity arises he
will be in a position TO avail him
self of it. There is no surer way of
layinga sound and enduring foun-
dation for success than by starting.
without delay, TO accumulate a re-
serve fund by means of systematic
saving
Many excellent business openings
have had, of necessity, to be neglect
ed by men who found themselves at
the critical moment without the re-
CURED ready money. In ninety-nine
cases out OF a hundred il will be
found that the fault lies directly
with the person himself and that
through lack Of ordinary foresight
he has neglected TO save money
steadily and accumulate a surplus
fund for just such an occasion.
To Determination and Persistence.
1t is an old proverb that not what
a man earns but what he saves
makes him rich. and this was
never truer than today. 1t may re-
quire some determination and per
sistence at first 10 adhere strictly to
the plan Of systematic saving but in
a surprisingly short time it viii be
come second nature and before Ions
a substantial fund will have been
accumulated.
In addition to the actual money
saved. the depositor has learned val
liable lessons OF thrift, system and
self-denial and, when confronted by
some problem of business or some
opportunity TO be grasped. he will
not have 10 trust TO chance but will
be in a position 10 avail himself of
the opportunity offered though
thoughtless onlOOkers may credit his
success 10 luck
The surest way 70 avoid failure is
to be always prepared for success
and the man who is in this position
in the business world is the one
who is fortified by the knowledge of
a substantial and growing bank ac-
count. The planning and carrying
out of a systematic savings campaign
is within the reach of all and COM
bines 10 the highest degree the best
results of material and moral sue
