Alcoholism exists in all coun.
tries and in all classes OF society.
The rich have the custom OF taxi

occupation. 1t comes likewise
from the tendency to abuse of
the pleasures OF the tables. In

"You Are the Master of Your Fate"
By Elsie Robinson

Poverty, sickness, failure-even
death-all these things were

weren't pleasant circumstances
But they were circumstances
that happened to everyone. They
broke down some people. They
didn't break others. 1t all de-
pended on how they were taken.
might not break me. That de-
pended on how / took poverty.
Danger might or might not
rout me-that depends on how
took danger.
l could, by my attitude, allow
these things to wreck my life.
Or l could actually make assets
of them, turning them to my fu-
ture advantage, as a craftsman
turns the tricks of his trade.
In short, the outcome OF All
experience lay with me, Myself
Out of me, Myself, came all
terror and beauty, all strength
and weakness, all courage and
cowardice, love and hate, desire
and despair.
BUT i. MYSELF, WAS A LIN-
ING FORCE, WHICH COULD
USE THAT SCENERY FOR
GOOD OR ILL.
That is the thing 1 have found
out about myself.
That is the thing which you
will find out about yourself. IL
you have the courage to ace
the truth.
You are the master OF your
fate"
And YOU, alone, can make your
self take the count.
