Among his other property needed attention. He thought to try the mettle of this matinee idol. And so he offered Fairbanks a chance to learn the soap business. If he should make good at the business he would be general manager of the property and get the girl to t And this young American with red blood in his veins jumped at the offer, He went to the theater manager who had him bound in a con tract for five years and told his story. The manager agreed to re Jease him only at the end of this year's season And Paifbanks now gets up early in the morning, alls and tends to the tubs at the soap factory.

Some people would not Hke to be called a goat, but it is better to be called a goat than a sheep. Don't be a follower. Be a leader. A sheep is a follower, It ts the animal that is led to slaughter. It ts always the victim. Its Meece or its flesh is easy plunder. To get ahead, go abead. Don't aiways look for the beaten path. Plunge into the untrod- den fielis. Fortune and fame awaits you there. Great men became great because they left the common road. Columbus, Galfiea, Newton and Morse did not follow the mub. They mastered what the mob knew and thea went on and on. The trails they biased are beaten paths now You must make other trails, There are plenty of sheep to fill the old paths. Don’t be content with being a follower.
