Abraham Lin.oln's birthday is an
occasion that ought to inspire
young people. No matter how hum
bic a youngster is, he can be shown
that he has as good Il chance in life
as Abe Lincoln seemed to have at
the same age. The ordinary gram.
mar school OF today gives the young
American very much more educa,
tion than Lincoln ever had from
any teacher.
Lincoln had what the majority OF
young people of today lack. con-
suming desire for knowledge. He
had . few great books from which
to draw wisdom, and he pondered
them increasingly. The boys and
girls of today commonly lack this
keen thirst for information. They
feel desire to make money and
become successful in. life, so as to
get automobiles and fine clothes
and all the luxuries.
That is where they differ from
Lincoln. He cared little for lnxuri-
cs even after he became famous.
His first desire was to develop his
own powers. and to take his share
in the government of the commlIni'
ty and country.
IF young people are to learn some,
thing from the life of Lincoln, they
must aspire not merely to business
success, but to noble part in the
life of the community. The more
you can fill their minds with stores
of self sacrificing achievement, the
more they can have some share In
the grand qualities that enabled a
man like Lincoln to ascend among
the worlds great ones.
The lesson OF Lincoln to this gen.
Grafton, is that no boy or girl is too
poor or lowly to rise in life. Many
thousands of those from humble
homes have climbed to greatness
nd power in this land Of free OPP
~ortunity. The fact Of humble
origin often works in mans favor
people feel interest in the ro.
ance OF his ascent.
