Por the first time in nmny years the United States has a FREE president. He ts foot-loose. He can do things if he will, He has g@hown that he has little regard for precedent or tradition, and the country is with him In that deci ston. His motto seems to be, “MAKE WAY FOR PROGRESS,” he bas a cheerful, red-blooded sort of manner of removing obstacles of and fe that is refreshing Just now he is arranging to lock horns with Mr. Joseph Can 4 MOR, speaker of the house, over the tariff. i Mr. Cannon, who is @ politician before all else, may win, but he will be mussed up some in the contest.

He it, and knew what to do with it, as the almost fabulous Astor fortune, still steadily growing because of its wise investments, amply testifies. Tm 1905, Waldorf Astor, a grandson, coming back from England. ‘the age of 26, has been “poking about finding out things,” as he “Gkpresses it, in the same city. And evidently he finds out that op- _ Portunity did not di¢ with the days of his grandfather. For these are gome of the things he observes: “Every time I come here I get a shock of amazement to see the “‘Aladdin-like changes that take place in the city’s sky Iine and the face of the upper part of the town. “A man said to me: “This will be a fine town when it's fin- = I ventured to reply that its finish was just as far away as ‘the limit to the ambition of every New Yorker.” It ts easy for us all to look back over the progress of a cen- fy and perceive how we might have taken advantage of opportunt- as readily as old Astor did had we only lived in a time when were plentiful. ‘We forget that New York today offers a thousand opportunities every one it offered a dred years ago. same is true of almost every city in this whole thriving 4 i have been made in building up our cities and tn devel- oping new territory and are being made still, but most people are too apt to think that the end of progress is about reached. " ‘They fail to read history aright and are unable to see that prog- eas keeps up a continuous performance. ‘They lack faith fn the future and refuse to believe that oppor- tunity which today looks as smal! as a mustard seed may some day - into tremendous achievement. Perhaps most of us assume that if old Astor were living in this day he would be @ amall potato in finance. Don't be too sure of that. | __ At least half the opportunity ts the man himself. And the man who fits into our time and place as Astor did into his has a thousand _ Opportunities where he had one. Q One opportunity is enough for the man able to recognize, grasp and contro! it. A thousand are not enough for the man blind to | them. There is hardly a city in the United States but promises better | progress in the next hundred years than has been made in the past. The young Astor finds in New York only what is common to the mverage city of the land. Cheer Up! There is a time for all thing »—a time to turn to the Psalms ‘and read that “Man is of few da ys and full of trouble"—a time to ask why do we come into the world and why do we go out. Bat— ‘There is no time to talk about “the emptiness of life” mourn over its “puzzle.” Cheer up. Life bas ita purpose and its meaning and {ts fullness, We come {nto the world for something and we go out for something. _ Why question the purpose of a man’s life more than the purpose of & tree's life?
