It is not a disgrace to fall; but it is a disrare not to do one's level best to succeed. ".Not failure, but low aim is crime." Multitudes of poor people today who are not known outside 'of their own little conr.iiuniti.'s are really great successes when measured by ail that makes true greatness -tutir heroic endeavors, their brave battle for years with obstacles, playing losing game with lieiols'tn. Their great: pai iencp nnd wonderful self-con tioi under the etiticism of those who do hot understand them are evidence that'they bao strceeded. The pos session of a rob'.e character is the greatest evidence in the world that one has succeeded. On the rfpnr hand, if a man haw gotten a fortune, but has left his man lood on the way to it; if he has bar lered his god name in the process of getting It, he Is still a failure, no mat ter how much "Money he may have accumulated.
