going the rounds, too. .............
But that has a more wistful, roman

out Kansas way. His father is an
official of a mid-western railroad
line. The lad tumbled hard for a
cute little blond in a night club. And
he started coming month in and
month out.
But the little chlorine was the
right sort of a youngster. She'd
keep telling him that he must make
good at Yale. He just mustn't let
the night life get him.
After a time, the scribblers no.
ticed that the youth would hide away
for a while each night in a little
off-corner of the joy palace. They
saw the cute blond sit down beside
him, and look over his shoulder.
And, upon investigation, the J
found he had brought his books to
the night club, and was doing his
class work in the midst of blaring
jazz bands, rough-house and flask
drinking. And the blond kid was
keeping his nose to the grindstone.
They tell me he was graduated
this summer, and with honors..
And that's that. ...... But it
goes to show that you can't tell what
you'll find on the Main Stem.
Sometimes it's good and romantic
and thrilling ................ And

WHEN SUCCESS IS POOR

John Lunsman, st. Louis junkyard keeper, died the
other day at the age Of s6, leaving fortune Of
slightly than $25o,0oo.

tests it.
Yet even in America, where money is placed on the
highest Of pinnacles it would be hard to find many
people to agree that the old chap had led an envabe
admirable life.
You can get just about what you want out Of life
you care to pay the price. You life as the
means to an end subordinatng everything in it to the
one thing you are seeking, making every act have
reference to your goal and like the old ST. Louis
junk dealer, you will be successful.
Or you look life something of an end in
itself. You can view it experience; something
that be made to yield richness and fragrance from
first TO last. If you do that you will have time for
little diversions along the waytme for the exper-
fences of love- friendship, DEVOTION self-sacrfice
fidelity and courage Those the things that often
have to be thrown overheard if has too much
singcness Of purpose But they are, in the main, the
things that make life worth living.
Old John Lunsman had Sc years and $25O,00O when
he died; yet for all that he hardly be said really
to have lived at all. He had his goal and he gained
it, but you could not find anyone to say that
worth the price he paid And while few people sacr-
flee as much to get little he did, his case is
nevertheless valuable object lesson.
There is zoo much of tendency to regard material
the sole criterion by which life be judged
1t would be fine to be Henry Ford doubt; yet be-
yond question, there are mechanics in Henry Fords
own factories, statesmen in his salesrooms, who
have had more honest enjoyment out of life than
Ford has had.
We need to be little bit less earnest about life
Too much looking to the future is apt to lead to an
ignoring Of the present There is something to be
said for the wisdom of the grasshopper opposed to
the wisdom Of the ant
