THE LESSON HARDING LEARNED

What have you read that has influenced your life the mos,1
= Maybe is a passage from the Bible. a poem, a sermon. a pro-
verb OF a book. But the chances are il YOU stop to think, YOU can
recall some written word that has been q dominating factor IN
your career.
Iincoln's iayorte poem was 20. why should the spirit Of
mortal be proudf' It was typical Of the sublime democracy Of
the man.
llardings fayoritc bit Of writing is the lesson from McGuf-
fcs Filth Reader. No Excellence Without Labor written by
William Writ BEAD il and YOU may have a better understanding
of the man in The White House:
The education. moral and intellectual. OF every individual
must be chiefly his own work. Rely upon it that the ancicnts
were right; both in morals and intellect We give the final shape.
TO our characters. and thus become. alphabetically. the architects
OF orr own fortune. How else could It happen that young men
who have precisely The same opportunities. should be continually
presenting us with such different results, and rushing to such
opposite dcstnies?
Difference OF talent will not solve it, because that difference
is very often in favor Of the disappointed candidate. You will see
issuing from the walls OF the same college, nay. sometimes from
the bosom OF the same family. two young men, OF whom one will
be admitted to be a genius OF high order, the other scarcely above
perishing in poverty. obscurty. and wrcchedness; while, on the
other hand. You will observe the mediocre %plodding his slow but
sure way up the hill OF life, gaining steadfast footing at every step,
and mounting, at length. to eininence and distinction, an orna
ment to his family, a blessing to his country.
Now. whose work is this? Maniiestly their own. They are
the architects Of their respective fortunes. The best seminary Of
learning that can open It's portals to you can do no more than TO
afford YOU the opportunity OF instruction; but it must depend, al
last. on yourselves. whether you will be instructed or not, or to
what point you will push your instruction.
And OF this be assured. l speak from observation a certain
truth: There is no excellence without great labor. 1t is the fiat
Of fate, from which no power Of genius can absolvc YOU.
Genius. unexerted, is like the poor moth that auttcrs around
all. it is only Of that great and magnanimous kind, which, ike the
condor OF South America, pitches from the summit OF C%himborazo,
above the clouds. and sustains itself at pleasure in that empy-
real region with an energy rather invigorated than weakened by
the effort.
1t is this capacity for,higr and ong-contnucd cxertion, this
vigorous power OF profound and searching investigation, this
careerfng and widespreading comprehension OF mind, and these
long reaches Of thought that

Or dive into the bottom Of the deep,
And pluck up drowned honor by the locks

THE LAST MICHIGAN

One OF his boyhood days that a fellow remembers best was
that memorable one on which he leaped from cliff to cliff with
Uncas the last of the Mohcans until Uncas persisted at the hands
Of the miserable redskin Magua.
Boys today do not know Uncas as intimately as their fathers
did. Thousands are not acquainted with him at all, because they
90 to the movies for their thrills rather than to books. So, not
knowing Uncas, they do not know the unaloyed joy of their
fathers felt in the fraternal company OF this red man whom
lanes Fcnimore Cooper ennob1ed, says the Ada News.
For genuine comradship with the last of the Mohicans it was
necessary to retire to some iar-of nook in the house where one
could not be interrupted by ma who invariably wanted one to go to
the grocery part OF the story.
One could keep on reading without stopping to cat, or sleep, or
even to play ball or marbles.
And in those days when there was nothing else to worry a
fellow, lie's darkest moment came in the last chapter when IN
cas-. pursuing Magua who had captured Cora, falls from a cliff
and lands at the feet Of his arch enemy who buries a tomahawk
in his back.
But happily the vile %murderers JOY is short-lved. Just as he
is about to leap to safety, the rifle Of Hawk-Eye, the scout, rings
out and Magua falls into the canyon.
Those were the days, od-timer, and let us lay a wreath Of
friendly remembrance on the tomb of James Feninore Cooper,
the author, the 10th anniversary of whose death is observed this
year.
