Effort, gentlemen, honest, manful, humble effort, succeeds by its reflected action, especially in youth, better than success, which indeed, too easily and too early gained not seldom serves, like winning the first throw of the dice, to blind and stupefy. Get knowledgeall you can; and the more you get the more you breathe upon its nearer heights their invigorating air and enjoy the widening views, the more you will know and feel how small is the elevation you have reached in comparison with the immeasurable altitudes that yet remain unscaled." ***

"I was born an American; I live an American; I shall die an American; and I intend to perform the duties incumbent upon me in that character to the end of my career. I mean to do this with absolute disregard of personal consequences. What are the personal consesequences? What is the individual man, with all the good or evil that will betide him, in comparison with the good or evil which may befall a great country, and in the midst of great transactions which concern that country's fate ? Let the consequences be what they will, I am careless. No man can suffer too much, and no man can fall too soon, if he suffer, or if he fall in defense of the liberties and constitution of his country."-Daniel Webster.

from a Daniel Webster speech not so well known as the one above, but tremendously impressive.)

"We have a great, popular, constitutional government, guarded by l'aw and by judicature, and, defended by the whole affections of the people. No monarchial throne presses these states together. No iron chain of military power encircles them. They live and stand upon a goverr.rment popular in its form, representative in its character, founded upon principles of equality, and so constructedwe hope-as to live forever. In all its history it has been beneficent. It has trodden down no man's liberty. It has crushed no state. Its daily respiration is liberty and patriotism. Its youthful veins are full of enterprise, courage, and honorable love of glory and renown."

"The most precious 0"1"."rr"" that a nation can have is the individual initiative of those who make up its life. Aspiration, initiative-achievement. These are the steps by whch man rises from obscurity, and often poverty, to renown and usefulnss5."-Qselge Matthew Adams.

"Every experience * -l"r"lorl because it relates us to the Infinite. The wells of adversity, filled with tears, become great living springs, powerful and recuperative, if as we go through the valley we know how to use those glimpses of the Infinite. We are not lifting ourselves by our own bootstraps. We have the power of the Infinite as our own."

In these days when the word "billion" with regard to government spending has become as common as pig-tracks around an East Texas schoolhouse, the facts I am about to relate seem almost unbelievable, even taking into consideration the size and consequence of the country then and now' * ,< ,<

There lives and writes in this country today a once famous educator named Dr. Frank lfarmon Carver. who is one of our most distinguished American history sharps. Dr. Carver evidently makes it his business to dig into American history and find facts and figures little known to most folks; things that are different and unique in themselves, and which he makes the more so by the quality of his presentation. Dr. Carver writes like he talks, and he is a most interesting and entertaining talker.

I always make it my business to read anything I see printed that has his name attached, and have added frequently to my store of historical lore by so doing. So, the other day when I saw Dr. Carver's name signed to a small article in the Los Angeles Times, I stopped right there and went to reading. And right then I got my money's worth in time and interest. For here is what the good history sharp had to say r * ,k *

He was writing about two Americans of the early days, men all of us place high on our list of great Americans, Thomas Je.fferson and Alexander Hamilton. And the figures and facts he was presenting he got-so he promptly admitted-from an Englishman named Francis M. Hirst, which Britisher wrote a biography of Jefferson. The short of the article is, he told how much money it took to run the United States government back in Hamilton's and Jefferson's days. What awful spendthrifts those early great American leaders were ! All of us have read, no doubt,
