war had Influenced his life for better or for worse
Many OF them spoke OF tho sort Of dice.

round pegs In square holes. Either they were, be
fore tho war eontcntcd with tho fiis and holes
they were tn afraid get cut lest they
set into something
Then tho and shook them out To-
turning from the army. they faced with the
alternative OF starting life anew or going back 10
the old ruts. Those who chose the former course
found therein opportunity 20 remake revise tlcir
lives IN whole ia part. they said they had been
ahic 20 set better iots and, what IL better they
hat discovered contcntmcnt they never knew III
tho old places IN which they had been misplaced
and which they had been afraid To leave.
They needed TO - pushed out. once pushed they
made their way to success. They point the
way out all who hogTed In ruts. Such
men should not wait unn they're fired because they
may then be too old 10 start anew. They should
fire themselves promptly and strike out on new
road.
