Small Salaries Paid to Bank Officers in Com- parison with Those Received in Other Busi- ness Enterprises. The directors of the National Park Bank, ‘at their meeting » greased the salary of the Richard Deiafeld, from $25.00 @ year. This !s the largest beelved by any bunk prest United States.

I didn’t know it. But it makes little difference what salary %/ a man-recelves except as it gives him pleasure to do for others. 1! | am not a rich maa. 1 began life with $5 a week. But you know as our incomes in- crease our responsibilities keep pace with them. The more money we have the greater the demands made upon us. The National Park Bank ralsed my salary because of the great- ly increased business of the bank and consequent increase in the responsibility of ite President. That covers It. How did I achleve success? Hanl work. But business success {s not all in this life. There are other duties. In this country the success of a man who was a poor boy Is not uncommon. Take President McKinley, for instance—a striking instance of a poor boy's advance in life. Success brings with it added cares, new and heavier respon- sibities, and lHttle more. Do I expect to become rich? Well, I don’t know that I am any richer to-day than I was, nor do I expect to become wealthy. Life is not summed up in the accumulation of riches. I do not know that I shall be any richer with my present salary than I was. There are persons who envy the rich, but I cannot say that I am one of them. One may be happy though poor. I know that, for I was happy when I had but very little. There is, however, much satisfaction to be derived in this world from work well done, and its natural reward, and also In being able to ald others—those who need a helping hand. A recipe for success in life? I cannot give one. There are too many roads leading to It. Success, however I do not belleve ts to be summed up in that one word—weakh. rie telai-te SAA SEROD ODDEN MI-G PROM ME-RDG - BIG SALARIES PAID $ @ z DHdGD TO SOME BIG MEN. ? & The following are the largest annual salaries paid 4 in this country: Chauncey M.
