FIVE ELEMENTS FOR
 THE SUCCESSFUL LIFE

X eoodIy number of sailors and civilians gathered a the Y. NJ c. A Sunday afternoon for the usual get together Swalln's orchestra fufnisf1-t cd the instrumental music while the men Joined heartily in a short song service.
 Roy E. Keller. county Y. NJ C. A. secretary for New Lendon county gave a short talk on the Five P's of Success. Preparedness. Perseverance, Power. Purpose and Perspective. - Certainly one who has given up their striving for improvement is as good as dead from the shoulders up Institutions of learning arc only one means of increasing preparedness They supply an ideal opportunity for learning but we should not think that attendance tt some seat of learning is necessa ry. Every experience of our daily life adds to or detracts from the effectiveness of our preparedness
 But all the knowledge in the world is of little use unless we have Per severance. Stick-to- -itiveness is g quality we must have if we would be successful. eveu as the bull dog in a fight is going 10 stick to the finish So the determination to stay with it to tho finish
 There must be power. however, and there must he purpose as clements in the cfracter of a man who is so- ing to succeed The big men of the world have been men with definite aims. Our friends on whom we de- pend are those whom we know do not if off at a tangent every so often. The life of 2 successful man must be 2. life nf purpose, 2 life guided by big co'r-p peIIirg human interests.
 WithaH thero must be perspective. \ man may have the other four P's of success well developed in his char acter but still not attain to the high est unless hc has the power to judge Of things in their true light. He must sec things as they arc and give eT-- < man rnusr appreciate the vaSue of the contributions in his carly life of his homo life, his church and school experiences.
 : The, quest lon now naturally arrives does Ciod enter in your plan for tho successful life My answer is that God is in and through all of it. As you look back over yoIr life and memories fn your mind With thoughts of many fine enoblits iSfuences that have helped make you what you are you may behold the love Of God God love throws upon the picture of your life a light which may be libened to that which is created in fine studios 1 to bring out the full beauty of fine 1 paintings. May we never sea se striv- ing to more completely realize these five Ps of success by living in har- l mony- with God $ will.
