Ralph Pallette THE BATTLE between Man and Monster Shark Fathoms Deep Under the Sea o o {x Q « fa t* fa £ o M © 0) w £ o © © w w 2! o © © © CZ) to o n D n o It is glorious to get old and be glad of it. The unhappy man is always trying to get things. The happy man is al ways trying to give things. Study the higher branches, but re member that the higher branches that father breaks off the apple tree back of the home have more to do with shaping destiny. 1 am not surprised at what anybody does—if an angel falls, or a devil rises I’ll pity the one and love him. 1'11 cheer the other and love him. Both at ‘ de out of the same kind of mud. I know when I am growing—I am so dissatisfied with myself. I know when I am not growing—I am so satisfied with myself. You have to pay for what you get, or you don’t get it. People may give things to you, but you don’t get them, You can't get something for nothing. You must give an equivalent. You can’t give help to a beggar until he tries to help himself. That’s why I charge for my lectures; the audience that pays gets more out of them. The "dead-head” who pays nothing gen erally appreciates least, because he has given least, and he is therefore the greatest kicker. Free things arc a failure. Even salvation isn’t free. It is the most cosflv thing in life because you have to give all you have for it. (Copyright, 1915. The Lyceum Maga zine.) Ralph Parlcttc will lecture h< re on October. 29th.
