Encouragement goes a long way to
ward helping people to make a success
of this life instead of a failure. The
people who most roundly and heartless
ly score you when you have failed in
your efforts to accomplish what you
have set out to do are the ones to first
pat you on the back and say with more
emphasis than truth: "I told you so.
I knew you would come out all right,’’
when success crowns your efforts.
They know it is a lib, ho do you, but
the bit of pleasantry must be taken witli
a good grace and a smile. The success
ful party can afford to smile and accept
the congratulations for what they are
