The above is the answer to the question, “Who wrote the four-power Pacific past”—now stormy debate in the senate, which threatens to menace ratification of the treaty. This is based on informa- tion obtained when the United Press exclusively gave America the first news that the treaty had been framed and approved by the Big Three, and all other information collected since the conference. [ ‘Washington, March 14.—-Failure of the senate to ratify the four-powcr Pacific treaty would be “nothing short “ of a national calamity,” Secretary of State Hughes today declared in a let ter to Senator Underwood, democratic leader of the senate. ] —_— ¥ Niagara's Futrercitys o 10 %/An 1dea which has ocgurred to wady ; minds since the last “harnessing” of Niagara fills’ was®gléatlysiput by a speaker before the Engineers' society | of New York.

All that is needed for the ac- complishment of our ambitions Is a desire .s0 strong that we will sacri- fice. whatever: may -stand in the way of.our success. The law of compensa- tion never fails.

How many- ple -have you:known who complain ‘of failure through bad luck, when ‘Your. own knowledge “of* them tells you that their downfall came through-lack of really trying? They were not willing to forego pleasures or _ extravagances which interfered with their success. Intense effort comes through intense desire which allows nothing to Inter- fere. with its purpose. Life is not much without ambition of some kind and unless one is living with a pur- pose of some sort he is merely whi- ing away the fime, waiting for the call of the grim reaper. Try to make your ambltions worthy ones. and then con- centrate on fulfilling them. Find out not only what you must do to realize them, but also what you must give up.

That, In itself, is not dangerous; a tendency can be overcome if we are interested in overcoming it. But many people, not realizing what is the matter with their minds, let lazy -thinking -habits develop unchecked. The slipshod mind has always an excuse ready. It says, “I'm, too tired to work now. What I need is a thorough rest to fit me for thinking. Tomorrow I shall be able to do this work easily.” Sometimes the excuse is genuine, but we must be on our guard to see that the tired feeling really means overwork. We must be on the lookout for the idle brain that complains of being. exhausted.
