There is much in ths hit of wisdom. Try something,
get busy, use your mind. Of course there will he failures,
nature hits the purple only, once in a thousand times, hence
nmi'n mnn i Imiind to make mistakes. In the past few
vonrs. with the business world all awry, mistakes have:
been more numerous because the spending period washed j
away all of the old guide posts. Men pushed out on ap-(
pparently untried seas and the danger signals of the fore-;
fathers were obliterated. It looked as though new meth
ods would work; It looked as though the old analysis of.
things had been obliterated. As a result project after;
oroject, welf intended, and with excellent showing to go,
ii it the rocks. '
Discouragement should not take hold of the people.!
Try again. That's the slogan try again. Reorganize
yourselves, pull together the thought apapratus, and try.

A Strange Ending
It was a strange philosophy of life, of love, of happi
'iiess that prompted a recently wedded French couple to
end it all in death. They did not lack money, were in per
fect health, loved each other madly, were happy so ran
the note they left therefore they determined to cross the
divide. Was it distrust of the future or some strange no
tion that by snapping life at its happiest Ihey could pick
up the broken threads of happiness in the beyond that led
them to plan the tragic ending of their drama?
Evidently the actors in this French tragedy looked
through a different end of the telescope from that gener
ally used by humans. Usually when men and women are
happiest they hold life dearest. Even when days nre
dreary ami life is burdensome, humans' hope for' happi
ness in the future urges those who love to struggle on.
It is averred that there is nothing to show that man
is more than 500,000 years old. As a matter of courtesy
how old is woman is not discussed in public.
A pedestrian may have a few rights, but he does have
the privilege ot taking a chance.
.Too many overlook the fact that the bill of rights is
