Success Or Failure Depends On
Une Man Makes of Training
Says Anna Carroll
BY MRS. ANNA A. CARROLL,
Philadelphia, Pa.
There are many who claim that
man can only qualify along the lines
of his ratural development or tal
ents. If thla be true. It Ir. a great
losa of time and energy for him to
study methods that he is mentally
unable to execute. If this claim bo
ackuow lodged a fallacy, and man
can develop power to apply these
splendid rules to his business,
should he not be given some scien
tific rules to train his power or
mental faculties to apply them?
The rise and fall, the iuccess and
defeat of the individual depend not
on the forces around him, but on
the degree of preparedness of the
man As the ‘horoughly equipped
ocean liner can ride the waves of
the sea. and successfully make her
port, while the frnil bark gees down
in the surges, so men have success
ful or unsuccessful careers accord
ing to their equipment. It is not
their store of information or know
ledge, theories nr foregone conclu
sions that can act as ballast for
them, any more than the number of
passengers on board the great ship
can propitiate the elements that war
against her.
The contention today with many
people Is that men use all the men
tal power that has been given them,
and that all we can do is to work
the new faculties that our defective
education has developed in us. r rhis
Is not true.
Almost every child Is born Into
the world with the capacity for
splendid moral and mental develop
ment We cannot with nuthtmatl
cal percislon measure the pospiblli
tie* of the marvelous faculties thut
have been given to man. For this
reason there are men for whom edu
cation and 1 now lodge have rot made
a succors, because their education
never contained any significant ele
ment of sense training.
The annual convention of the
Christian Endeavor societies of
l’ennsylvana wll belgln at Harris
burg today and continue until Fri
day.
A big "stampede" carnival under
the auspices of the Saskatchewan
Stock Growers’ association Is to be
opened today at Moose Jaw.

In every section some sort of con-
Htructlve work Is going on. Apart

up to take care of the Increasing
population which Is expected to
reach one million before 1920. Pres
ent Indications at least speak en
couragingly of such a growth.
The eyes of every commercial cen
ter In the United States are turned
on I>etroit today. It Is the wonder
city of the country. It is making
everything that is In demand even
to munitions. Its industries are ex
panding and Its new enterprises are
pushing out Into the suburbs.
On the basis of its population it
Is stated that Detroit is moving at

Machinery Sales and Electric
Cos. Expands Rapidly; Gar
ries Complete Electrical Line
The business of the Machinery
Salts & Electric Cos., established In
IDU by Ray C. Silver, has increased
to such an extent that larger loca
tions have been moved into on two
occasions, and now the concern Is
housed In ample and well-appointed
qunrtors at No. 5 and 7 Kort-st. east,
opposite the couuty building, and
enable? tbe company to gradually
enlarge its equipment. The organ
ization is now going like clockwork
and activities are in full swing ..
The company carries a full line
of alternating current motors from
one to :,0o boisepower, made by the
Ideal Electrical A Manufacturing
Cos., of Mansfield, 0.. anti the imper
ial line of direct current motors.
Practically everything n the line
of electrical equipment is supplied.
Magnetic wire brush carbon sup
plies are In stock and expert elec
tric repairing is done. A Reneml
machine shop Is operated In con
nection. Them is also on band a
stock of motors tor rental purposes.
The company is also agent for
five counties of the Northwestern
Concrete Mixer, operated by gas and
electric motors and favorably known
to the trade.
Officers of the company are:

CARRIES MANY
FOUNDRYWANTS
Frederic B. Stevens Has Big
Line of Brick and Mortar of
the Best Material. Also
The business man la widening hla
range through departments, or a
greater business composed of sev
eral departments under one control.
The wider scope hai Its advantages
In business, such as the automobile
factory that manufacturers its metal
pnrts In a foundry of its own and
does its own electro-plating
It Is now possible for a buyer to
save time and details by concen
trating his purchases for such sup
plies with one manufacturer. For
Instance, Frederic EL Stevens oper
ates a large factory on Isabella st.,
for the production of foundry fac
ing and supplies, and at No. f>B
Ijirned-st. another factory makes
buffing compositions such as Tripoli,
rouge and Vienna lime compounds.
The last named department In
cludes a large stoek of commercial
chemicals, carbonate of copper,
cyanide of potassium and nickel
salts, together with buffing wheels
and other wheels of wire, steel and
brass. It has electric generators
and equipment for a complete fottn
dry and electro plating plant. A
visit to the factories Is convincing
of the fact that they carry every
thing for foundry and electroplat
ing.
Mr. Stevens says that when s
man wants service, comfort, aid and
co-operation, for the expansion of
buildings or the construction of a
home, he can supply him with the
latest designs and colors In pressed
brick and mortar colors. In his new
display mom, No. 1656 Penobscot
bldg, may be seen wall panels of
all designs and colors of Stevens
vitrified brick.

DETROIT TIMES
In the world. In the factory dis
tricts additions are being made with
Much rapidity that they are hardly
noticed.
The to-rent sign has been down
for months and with homes at a
premium as they have been for
nearly two years, It Is likely to re
main down for an unusual period.
There are, of course, a few stores
for rent, but the percentage Is re
markably low.
Reports ut the Doard of Com
merce indicate that newcomers are
thronging the city in the same
numbers us they have been for more
thuu a year.
Hank statements show- that an
average of $50,000 its being placed
In the savings deposits by Detroit
labor every day, an unprecedented
increase.
0. T. AND I. TO
IMPROVE ROAD
Expects to Repair Track With
100,000 Tons of New Steel
Just Ordered
An order for more than 400,000
tons of new steel has been placed
by the Detroit, Toledo A Ironton
railroad, to be laid this year. The
price for the rails was a stiff ad
vance over that of the last new
pteel, due to so much steel being
used for munitions of war.
The new rails are 75 pounds and
will be placed at various points
along the road where most needed
to strengthen the track for the
mammoth new engines recently
placed In service, and for the heavy
trains that are daily passing over
the road.
Industrial conditions were never
better along the Detroit, Toledo A
Ironton.
BRASS OUTPUT
IS INCREASING
Detroit Concerns, Although
Doing Better Than Outside
C ompetitors, Short Supplies
Detroit Is one of the biggest brass
manufacturing centers In the Unit
ed States today. Many tons of cop
per arrive here by boat and train
ev»-ry day to bo turned Into the
alloy which has become such a
great necessity In trades and mauy
other fields.
Supply companies handling brass
specialties made elsewhere are not
In a position to make any promises
because shipments are so uncertain.
But the Detroit companies have
met the situation better than out
side competitors, although under
difficulty. The immense amount
of brass being used in the manu
facture of munitions Is responsible.

SEVERAL LARGE
ITEMSJN LIST
Office and Temple Building For
Bricklayers' Union Among
New Projects
An office and temple building for
the Bricklayers’ union, to be erect
ed at Cass and Hlgh-sts., and an
eight-story apartment structure
were among the larger Items In thr
list of new- work which came from
the offices of the architects during
the past week, according to the re
port of the Builders A Tinders' ex
change.
Plans are being prepared for a
four-story, 100-apartment structure,
with provision for four additional
stories later, while figures will soon
be taken on a group of brick stores
and flats, and a two-story, brick and
steel factory building.
In order to be able to take care
of the housing demands being made
unon It, Detroit is keeping up its
record In the construction of resi
dences and Bmall apartments and
flats. The aggregate was fairly
large for a holiday week.
The contracts awarded showed a
corresponding falling off, although
the total reached a fair proportion.
