THE FRATECH CHARACTER In many of my messages to the graduating class, I have spoken about character and pointed out that it was in my opinion the very strongest single attribute which made for real success in the world. Now is the time that you need it perhaps more than ever before. Char- acter is the sort of thing that makes you do the job, makes you do it with a smile and see it through. Character means sincerity and courage in your work, the ability to stand an almost unlimited amount of punishment and still keep your head level and your smile working. The men without character are the first to go under. You have seen them, as I have, many, many of them getting a little more disgruntled, a little more sour and finally winding up as Bolsheviks or Worse. We have all seen the other kind of fellow, the sort of fellow that you simply cannot lick, who does not know the meaning of the word suffi- cient, and who attacks all his problems with all his might, directly, sincerely. and courageously. This is the fellow that wins nine times out of ten. Those of you who graduate under these conditions which surround us. will have good cause to remember, I think, that after all character and what it assumes of courage and sincerity is perhaps the most important thing which you possess. With it nothing is impossible. Withoiit it it is going to be very hard for you to get to any position worthwhile. IXLLAN R. CULLrMoRE, llirerfnr. Nine
