LIFE
at Its Best
BY RAY BEALS
How TO Fail Successfully


Branch Hickey, who was then
vice-president and business man.
ager of the st. Louis Cardinals,
was once speaking to a group
Of ministers. At the close of his
remarks, one of the men in that
group asked him, What would
you do, Mr.. Hickey, if you mere
the manager of the Cincinnati
RedS?"
1t so happened that the Gin
cinnati Reds that season were
hopeless contenders for the pen
nant, and spent almost the en-
tire summer lin the cellar. They
obviously didn't have fighting
chance to get anywhere in the
pennant race.
But with very little hesitation,
Mr.. Rickey answered, 81 should,
first of all, refuse to be defeated
by the immediate"
Then he went on to explain
that he keep on trying to win as
many of the seasons games as
possible, but would in the mean
time be on the lookout in the
minor leagues and in sandlot
/ teams for boys who showed
promise, and would gradually
build up winning team for fu-
ture years. In other words, he
wouldn't throw in the sponge be-
cause of bad season, but would
take the long look.
It's good advice for all of us
IN these days when it is SO easy
to be discouraged. No defeat or
failure ever needs to be perman-
ent. The people who have risen
to the heights in every walk of
life were not folks who never
had to deal with failure or frus-
tration. Rather, they are people
who refused to surrender to tenn
porary defeats and tried to learn
from these set-backs whatever
there was to be learned.
read again the other day a
list of several famous people who
failed in the sense of being
"foored" by a serious physical
handicap, or other defeat, but
who kept on trying and came
out on top. Whistler, the paint
er, fiunked out at West Point Che

but became one of the most in
ffuential preachers of his day.
julius Caesar was an epileptic
, Napoleon Bonaparte was cancer
Gus; Milton was blind; Beethoven
was deaf; Charles Steinmetz, the
wizard who made us all his debt
ors through discoveries in tho
General Electric laboratories,
was a hunch-backed dwarf
and the list goes on.
We can turn our failures into
successes if we learn from them
but refuse to be overcome bv
them. A temporary defeat does
not mean the end. 1t simply isn't
true that opportunity knocks
but once. Life keeps Offering
us a second chance, and third,
and fourth.
Branch Hickey was right. Let's
refuse to be defeated by the i'm
mediate!"

Bill Would Cut Tax
Funds To Towns

Local governments can look for
less money from sales tax receipts
in coming biennium. Gov. Frank
J. Lausche will back bill to cut
direct subsidy from S7S million to
$l2 million year.
Effect of the decision is to keep
local governments from getting
lnequltable share of state taxes.
Cities, townships and counties act.

Kathryn Hammes in her booklet

based on $50 million people. AS

soil becomes more run down. DR..
Firman E. Bear, a noted United
States agronomist, says we should
build our soil to feed 200 million
people. If he is correct in his
thinking then our 3 acres has
shrunk to two acres. Unless we
coax our soil to produce more and
better food, then you and | face d
