HOME INDEPENDENT TELEPHONE CO. 4 I Learned hints on achieving success j were presented to the graduating 1 class of the La Gr.inde high school I yesterday morning at the high school j auditoiium when Row W. A. Winters, D. D., presiding elder of the Li Grande district of the Methodist 'chuich, spoke to tho giuduutes, their parents and friends, faculty nnd stu dent body. The setting was a beauti ful one, and the service one lone; to be remembered. A large attendance j was present to witness the ceremony and hear the baccaluareate address, i Speaking from the text I Cor. 9:27, j"I keep under my body and bring it into subjection," Rev. Winters touched upon essentials of right living :nd 'pointed to the route that leads to suc cess. He said in part: I Many things are assets to the suc cess or failure of mankind Heredity, ! health, wealth, training environment, j opportunity etc. These things are cir cumstances that help form the back ground of a man's life and ho fails or 'succeeds as he is controlled by or controls circumstances. Will he he slave or master? is the question. , Two wills have to do with a man's ' success God's and man's but only ! one will has to do with his failure i his own. Oh yes we may have ro j verses, misfortunes and lose much in . many ways, but a man has not failed J until he ceases trying and gives up jin dispair. j God as creator gives to man his possibilities sets him up in buslne: . with raw material, sometimes . very raw, and expects him to manufacture I life's products all wool and ISO inches .to the yard. The world needs your honest ability rightly applied. Your friends are anxious for your success and God e" 'pects you to make good; to increase, develop and utilize the possibilities jwith which you are entrusted: to broaden your vision, increase your usefulness, generate power, economize in strength, grow in wisdom and so master, the details 'of your own life ,that there may be no waste of re I sources but that the capital and pro ' ducts of life may increase many fold. To accomplish this three things are t necessary. First you must have a fixed purpose. Beecher expressed the 'same conviction when he said "There is nothing like a fixed, steady aim with an honorable purpose." It's a man squaring himself tor the work of I life. j We admire men with fixed pur poses; men that will stand by their convictions, though, like Luther Sa La Grande Fruit Company ing and cooking devices in the homes j and for electric fans, vacuum clean ers, etc. RODNEY J.

If a man would succeed lie must consider the circumstances sur rounding him and the things with j which .he must contend. Only thus can he wisely prepare for the con- iflict of life. Third. He must control circum . stances or overcome them. We will I group these circumstances under two heads, (a) General including heredity, wealth, training, enviropment, oppoi tunity etc. These and others we must control. .We must also control circum stances, in particular, those which .!? ncrannal cn.-li n c ha.iltl. flin.l.fi. n...n. . ory, lack of perservancc, morbidness. disposition to neglect, calling it bad I liver inead of laziness, and bad habits. Oh the wrecks along the shores of time caused by lack of control over self. Here is where Alexander failed. He conquered the world but did not conquer his own personal habits and died a slave to his own passions. E:nest Fox Nichols, president of Dartmouth College said: "The body and intellect needs the oversight and firm control by such directors a.-' character, integrity and consciencj and that men meet failure or ship wreck by ti blunt moral sense, a weak and treacherous will, an undis ciplined mind or an uncontrolled body. Paul was in a way of success wlwn he said Tkeep under my body and bring it into subjection.1' How wJI he succeeded let this royal hero of the ages tell. Just before his martyrdom, Ilia liftt'e irrvt-L. ..... - l.: ..... ...w a ..v. n viiuvi, rvu ileal nun .-ay: "I am now ready to be offered and the time of my departure is nt hand. I have fought a good fiirht. I i have finished my course, I have kept ie taith; henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness which the Lord the righteous judge shall give me at that day; and not to me only but unto all them also that love his appearing." How has he suc ceeded? With a fixed purpose con trolling circumstances alone? no! Hear the divine voice when he is en deavoring to overcome his weakness. "My grace is sufficient for time." Again hear this mighty man of Clnd .is he tells his real secret of suc;"e!i!,: "I live, yet not I but Christ liveth in me." No wonder he could keeD his body under and bring it into subjec tion. And we can succeed in tho same way. Music Interspersed. A vocal duet by Glen Conkev and Mies Smith, a preiude by Miss Bessie Allinson and congregational mn-ii? with Mrs. Winters at the piano, made ut the musical features of the services. Rheumatic Pain Stopped. The drawing of muscles, the sore ness, stiffness and agonizing pain of rheumatism quickly yield to Sloan's Liniment. It stimulates circulation to the painful part. Just apply as di rected to the sore spots. In a short time the pain gives way to a tingling sensation of comfort and warmth. Here's proof "I have had. wonderful relief since I used your Liniment on my knee. To think one application gave me relief. Sorry I haven't space io tell you the history. Thanking you lor what your remedy has done for me." James Ferguson, Philada, Pa. Sloan's Liniment kills pain. 25c at druggists. "aw" Notice of Sewer Const ruction and Assessment.
