THINK BIG THINGS.
Give Your Imagination Play and Try to
Live Up to Your Dreams.

Live Up to Your Dreams.
Isn't it true that the only thing which
makes it possible for us to perform the
daily drudgeries of life is the hope
for better things which blooms in our
hearts?
Hope is romance. Ambition is ro-
nance. All the fine. true Inspirations
OF life are romantic. Romance leads
to achievement, unless it blossoms In
the mind of a lazy, shiftless creature
who is incapable of action.
The man who leads forlorn hope Is
romantic. The hero who gives his life
lighting a dread disease to which he
succumbs, but against which he has
insured humanity, is romantic. RO-
nance is the thing which makes 1t
worth while for men to sacrifice ma
terial comforts and die on strange
fields of honor
In a materialistic world, where we
have to deal with the facts Of earning
our living and fighting for place and
position, the thing which lifts us above
blind instinct is romance. Cherish
your dreams, for they give you
glimpse of beauty and make you will
ing to struggle over cruel mountains
and harsh plains to the pot of gold at
the rainbow's end. Dreams give res
pite from dreary reality and urge Oh
to all that is big and fine.-EXchange.
