Power in Life

Not every one can maintain spirit OF equan-
unity and balance in an hour of vexation and
trial. The person who does is to be envied and
praised. His poise proves control over self
and ability to cope with vexation without sue
cumbing to its attacks.
The cultivation of this trait is to be desired,
for one never knows how soon providence may
buffet and beat him numerically. What is the
secret of the calm demeanor of the men and
women who refuse to give up and complain in
adversely?
Their inflexible will power. They believe adj
versity and misfortune are merely trials and
tests of character, and so when the storm breaks
they draw upon their reserve power and smil-
ingly go through the ordeal.
We hear much of the evil effects of environ
ment and heredity. No one can doubt their in
fluence upon ones life, but one cannot ignore
entirely in this connection the capability of a
persons will to overcome the evil effects of in
heritance or of surroundings. Some of the
worlds greatest men were born in sordid sur
roundings and of poor Stock but because they
believed in themselves, allied themselves with
righteousness and justice, they accomplished so
much good that mankind still blesses their men,
Dry.
Man is what he thinks and makes of himself.
He can resist every effort to improve himself,
and he can take advantage Of every call to grow
upward and heavenward He who is wise and
Ipurposeful grasps with eager hand the chance to
grow and expand to become stronger and better.
In his heart is determination and power
that enables him to meet the shock of life's at
tacks without concern and with the assurance
of winning. He accepts battle as a test of his
strength. He fights against degrading environ
ment and builds palace where once stood a
howell. He analyses his character frequently
and numerically corrects his evil traits, and
strives to become more resourceful and energetic

Economics in the Grade Schools

Elementary economics and social service will
be taught in the grammar grades of the Chicago
schools, says IAN announcement from that city
1t is considered forward step in popular educa-
tion and is meeting the approval of publicists and
students of public affairs.
Economics and social service are practical
matters about which the average school boy and
girl know very little, but which are of vital i'm
portance so far they affect their future status
as citizens of the republic. Neither branch is so
difficult that it's rudiments cannot be taught to
the pupils of the grades. In fact, they might
well take the place of some branches which are
not SO fundamental.
If the school children have knowledge of
the fundamental economic principles and of the
social relations that exist they will be able to
understand more easily the important problems
upon which they must give decisions as citizens.
Many an adult today would be glad if he had
had an opportunity to study these branches when
he was in school. Observations and arguments
that today are obtruse and hard for him to grasp
would be clear in the light of the fundamentals
which he learned in youth. Such courses would
prepare him for the exercise of good judgment
in many of the practical affairs of life
The example of the Chicago schools, whose
course, it is said, has the endorsement of the
educational experts of the University of Chicago
should be followed elsewhere. The practical prob
lens of life are the ones with which we have to
deal in religion, politics, business and industry
and any change in the school system which will
facilitate an understanding of them is to be wei
coined.
