Champions are developed only
thru competition. One may have
the natural ability but unless he
can compete with someone bet
ter he has little chance of ever
attaining maximum of per-
lection.
A desire to beat the other fell
low is instructive in every normal
human. Sometimes, thru greed
or for some other selfish reason,
attempts are made to stifle COM
petition. The result always is
disastrous.
We are sadly fearful for the
only child who lacks the op-
portunity of competing with a
brother or sister for his share of
parental love. He is denied the
opportunity of learning one of
life's most valuable lessons. And
in after years, he is handicapped
by the lack of practice in COM
petition in his youth.
Absence of competition ex-
plains why so many public
spirited enterprises, that have
all the cooperation in the world,
end in dismal failure. They are
like the electric current, which
must have two poles-positive
and negative-to establish a live
current. This probably explains
the mystery which has sur
rounded a number of failures in
enterprises which had no opposi-
ton or competition.
The man, launching an entirely
new industry, may have no direct
competition at the beginning
because he is attempting to
market a new idea. But if this |
idea is worth while, others will
adopt it and then he will have
competition. If it is not good
enough to make rivals for him,
it is not good enough to interest
anyone else and consequently his
venture must fail.
But when he has competition,
and is forced to make a fight to
even keep going, then he has an
opportunity to develop and grow.
The muscle, which is unused
becomes flabby and useless. And
the same condition results in any
business which does not have to
fight for it's success.
We have heard of some wise
captains of industry who create
their own competition to stimu-
late and keep alive the enter
prises in which they are in
terested. They encourage rivalry
between various departments
and branches and factories and
in this way stimulate each to
greater endeavor. They offer an
inducement for better workmen-
ship. And everybody concerned
profits from this artificial COM
petition.
Our best and most valuable
friends are our opponents who
bring out the best there is in us.
So, we say to you, Mr.. Merchant
ard Mr.. Artist:
Cooperate with your COM
petitor and keep him alive and
strong, for when he dies, you die
with him. And keep as your
motto, Long live competition

wisdom of the world
depends upon a correct in
By UICToR NEJHAUS

|TNHE wisdom of the world
depends upon a correct in
depreciation of the laws
and forces of nature. 1t was
their ability to adapt themselves
to these requirements of nature
that enabled former generations
to survive. 1t was patient obser-
walton of nature that taught our
forbears what they knew.
Most of these laws are OBJ
served automatically with utter
Inconsistencies of their i'm
portance. One of the most i'm
portant is the law of self preser-
walton. 1t is instructive and
upon it depends the existence of
all life.
The instinct of self preserva-
ton brings rivalry which, in
business, we call competition.
This competition is found
everywhere. 1t is one of natures
essentials. Without it, there
could be no progress. Even the
blossoms of the same tree COM
pete with one another for more
sunshine and sap, so each may
develop more luXuriantly, even
at the expense of the others, and
fulfill natures tendencies toward
the creation of higher standards.
1t is a fundamental principal
of socialism that all competition
should be eliminated as wasteful.
And that is why a socialistic
state, founded upon such a
principle, never can succeed.
OF course, nature is a great
waster. But it has so much to
waste. 1t creates a million bios
SONS where only few thousand
can reach fruition. And this
great waster almost entirely
ignores the factor which human
civilization would substitute for
neutrality-suspicious..
Fear of competition makes
towards. The man who fears
competition must fail as he re-
fuses to recognize that fun
damental law of nature.
Competition may be waste but
it is the only thing that makes
for true efficiency. There is an
old truism, Competition is the
life of trade" No truer state
ment was ever made concerning
business.
Many a deplorable failure can
be traced directly to lack of COM
petition. There must be an in
centive and in most cases where
competition is lacking the in
centive is insufficient. A pace
maker is just as essential in
business as it is on the track.
The horse that is sent out to
break a record does not make his
trial without competition. In
the case of harness horses, a
runner is sent along to keep a
little bit ahead of him, on the
theory that this competition will
force him to his utmost.
Without competition, sports
would be just as lifeless as
business conducted along purely
cooperative lines. The element
of competition always brings out
the maximum of accomplishment
regardless of whether it is on the
football field, the tennis courts,
