To those who are weary, heavy of heart and
fatigued of body, it is a story of unending
travail.
But in a strange way the character is a COM
posite of us all, in great or lesser degree
No man is failure who sees his own mis-
takes and strives to overcome them for the fu-
ture success and happiness of his being. No
man is now a failure who understands what he
has not understood before or who emissions the
opportunities which were ever within his grasp
but which he did not see.

\ IFE must ever remain a weary uneAciting

trek across the sands of time fails to lift his
vision to the progress and opportunity which
is his Horizon of The Present.
1t is an amazing, thought provoking study of
life which the western artist, William Wke,
has interpreted this page. The single char
acter in the illustration appears first as no more
than a nstless unimportant individual who is
Flooding along emerging from nowhere and
moving slowly toward destination that he does
not see. Yet, when one studies the picture more
closely the character might be any one of the
millions who people the earth.
To those who lonely, who are without
home, family and friends, it is study in lone
illness.
To those who regard themselves as failures,
it is the Characterization of a man who has
failed.

The world is only desert of desoation and
despair when man builds wall around his life,
when he blinds himself to the progress and
beauty about him and when-through lack of
energy, vision and determination = he fails
himself
Life, true enough, is often cruel. 1t gives, but
it robs. 1t holds out a reckoning, inviting hand.
and then closes the door, 1t unfods love and
homeland sometimes snatches them away.
Fate, chance and circumstance shower for
tune, misery and restitution with seemingly
ruthless hand. So often the most undeserving
have much and the worthy have little, but if
man is fair If he is tolerant if he is philosoph-
ical, he discerns that over and above the selfish
ness and shortcomings to which civilization is
native he must lift his eyes to the broad hori-
of understanding and himself become all
that he would have life represent.
