NO SET PROGRAM FOR SUCCESS ' This is the time year when the young man graduate mounts the rostrum and in careful phrasing, correctly coached expounds learnedly before an admiring group of relatives and friends solving with ease ques- tions which have for years and years stumped the profoundest minds in the United States and those of other countries. It is also the time when Clarence Wiseman appears in all radiance and is pointed out as the most briliant student in the class with marks crowding the century, and fathers and mothers point him out as being just what the doctor ordered. Somewhere in the class is Bill Jones. How in the world Bill man- aged to get through is a mystery to everybody. Just as much so to Bill. But he managed to crawl through. Bill wasn’t much as a student and neither was he so much in deportment at times perhaps. Not that Bill was vicious but just naturally had difficulty in restraining his young ani- mal nature. Bill didn’t cut any ice at all graduation day. The last oration is finished, the spotless diplomas are presented, the audience stands and joins in singing America as the high school orchestra plays and files out. Clarence has high ideals. His parents are well to do and in the fu- ture picture a roseate scene for their brilliant young son, the youth who made such g mark in school. College will get him and fit him for the scintillating career as a state and nation’s foremost leader. Bill had a hard time getting enough to eat at home. Father and mother both worked hard and scrimped and saved to allow Bill* some sort of a chance anyway. If they could get him through high school that would be all they could possibly do and then it was up to Bill to kick for himself. Fall comes and Clarence is fitted out to the last notch, the whistle toots and he is off to college. Bill has hustled around and got himself a job in a mill and is working like a pup to hold it. Time pesses, as it always does. Clarence wears a “frat” pin and all the trimmings and has finished his high education. He returns home imagining the world 48 & big oyster and that he is just the one to open it. Meanwhile Bill has kept plugging away without any frills. But the old home has taken on a different appearance. Pretty comfortable now, and Bill is looking changed in appearance and manner to a marked degree. Clarence started in to show 'em a few things at home but there was something wrong some- where. The expected didn’t happen and gradually people forgot all about the day he shone at graduation. Bill, however, commenced to be known as 2 man of affairs. He was general manager of the plant he started into work when just out of school and it had grown. He was looked up to as one of the leaders in the community in business and civic matters. He hadn’t done anything wonderful only work like the Dickens when he started, minded his own affairs and kept it up. And so it goes. There is no set program to success. It’s the fellow who goes to it that gets there. MAINE AND THE MARINE The all-Republican delegation in Congress from Maine are busy en- listing the industries of th=ir state in the service of the government.
