Half-baked optimists are always ready to volunteer such Seneral advice as “Do right,” “Follow the Golden Rule,” &c, But when a man who earns $1,000,000 a year. and who is President of the second largest business in the United States gives advice, we can rest assured that what he says 1s sound common sense. This story gives the gist of Mr. Schwab's recent advice to Princeton undergraduates. Let us introduce—— ! =i CHARLES M. SCHWAB, WHO SAYS: NNO MAN CAN BE SUCCESSFUL THE WORK HE HAS TO DO PLEASANT. I know that it is very difficult to convince the great majority of people that men who are in active pursuit of life have any other object In view than the making of money. i great mistake. The real leaders of industry and the real men in life and the real successes in life are not always the men who have made lots 2. of money or a great fortune. My idea of the successful life is the man who has sticcessfully accom- plished the objects for which he set out, te do something that is worthy a real American man. Money »fien a matter of chance or good for- tune and is not the mark of a suc- cessful life, The thing you want to do is to make up your mind what you are go- ing to drive for, and let nothing stand n the way of its ultimate accomplish- ment. Now, in my Yong experience 4n busi- ness life and association with men there are some fundamental things that must net be overlooked. If I re asked to say the most important 1 cuings that lead to a successful life I should say that, first of all, was in- tegrity—unimpeachadle integrity, No man cam ever do anything of any great value in Life and have the con- tidence and approval of his fellow men or be successful in his undertakings with other ®usiness men if he doesn’t ive the reputation of being a man of Lonor and integrity. In the foundation of a successful you can make up your mind to do one of two things: You can have a xvod time in life or you can have a successful life, but you can't have both, You have got to make up your mind at the start which of the two you are going to have. There is no royal road to a successful life, as there is mo royal road to learning. It hus got te be hard knocks, morning, noon and might, and fixity of purpose. Never bas there been a time in the tory of the world when so much op- inity offers for the leading of a iccesstwl life as to-day. What would 1 not give to be one of your age again und have the opportunity of starting fe afresh! You think the opportuni- ties of the past will not be the op- % yortunities of the future. In that, boys, you make a mistake, Another important thing is loyalty. Now, that is what you boys in univer- sities and colleges learn, You learn joyalty to your Alma Mater. You ~ jearn loyalty to your fellow students You learn loyalty to the friendships wo» that are going to follow you through tife, ‘The one thing that you are dis- tinctively in the university is that you are loyal men. Make your employer feel truthfulty that you are sincere with him; that you are going to promote his inter- the things which he represénts; that you are proud of being a member of his etaff, and there is nothing that will reap,you @ richer reward, Loyal- ty above all! Boys, there are other things tm Mite than the mere work. I belfeve an ap- preciation of the finer things tn life, the learning to know the beanties of literature and art and music, will help any man in hie career, A man vo Carry @2 @ successful business «wu heswteginadion, He must soc $ .) we ‘This is a! ests; that you are going to stand for | “> _ You must have imagina- tion. You must be loyal. You must possess unim- | Peachable integrity. Ycu must choose be- tween two things—a suc- cessful life or a good time. Accomplish what you have set out to do. . Don’t be afraid to ad- mit it if you are in the wrong. ent Bynes AT WORK IF HE DOESN'T FIND things as in a vision, a dream of the whole thing, You can cultivate this faculty only by an appreciation of the finer things in life, No active business life, whether it 1s manufac- turing or something else, can pre- vent you from enjoying the beauties of life. ‘These finer things will cons | tribute to your success, + Be friends with everybody.

The skyscrapers they have in the collar burg now are higher than the college boy models they make, N account of the scarcity of linen in 1918, the 15-cent collar went to 20 cents. On account of the scarcity of buttonholes in 1919, the tariff was kicked up to 25 cents. On accotnt of the scarcity of collars on beer seuttles in 1920, the levy has levi« tated to 30 cents. 0 I™s the same old bunk in every line, On account of the shortage of women’s skirts, the price of female duds is discovering new air currents, On account of the scarcity of sheep, men’s clothes are higher.
