RESPONSIBILITY. O ESPONSIBILITY as an asset should be firmly imbedded in the char- acter. It carries a power that is sure to bring success. To wait until asked to do a thing shows weakness. To wait for the other fellow to do the work is fatal. But to go ahead upon one’s own responsibility means success. The rule, “Do the thing, and above all, do the thing right,” if adopted as a world motto would revolutionize human actions, for failure comes to an enterprise because somebody has lacked in responsibility. Do not be the underling of life, scorned by everybody; climb to the top rung of the ladder. One can reach this height only by having a clear conception of the word, “Responsibility.” FALSE PRIDE. A VIEW of the articles which have accumulated in the “Lost and Found” box in the office, leads one to believe that some people are proud, even to a fault. Rings, bar-pins, brooches, stick-pins, school pins of various shapes and forms, to say nothing of the numerous pocket-books, are in the collection. Each ornament was once treasured. Each purse had an owner. What is it that makes a person ashamed to reclaim these articles once highly valued? Were it diamond, ruby, opal, pearl or a solid gold ornament, a thing of great value to the owner, he would soon show that he had lost something; he would do his utmost to regain it. Articles of slight value, the owner cares not to find. False pride makes him refuse to acknowledge ownership, even when attention has been called to the finding of his property. This condition is too common. Real individual strength demands that we discontinue this course. Throw “False Pride” to the wind; stand up like a person of strength and say, “That’s mine.” CLEVELAND’S NEW HIGH SCHOOL OF COMMERCE. RECENTLY Cleveland has become one of the twelve cities in the United States to have a regional reserve bank. This according to the general opinion of business people will give our city “a world-wide prominence as financial, commercial and industrial center.” In view of the fact that we are the sixth city in population, and in addition have a regional reserve bank, our attention is naturally called to the fact that the City of Cleveland lacks a new High School of Commerce. Since Commerce pupils have commenced filling responsible positions, business men are realizing more and more that graduates of our high school are well fitted for business life. Our graduates attain practical and envied positions, in spite of the many inconveniences in the present building, and with a new building the pupils would be able greatly to increase their efficiency. The erection of such a building may be a combination of twelve Herculean labors, but our Board of Education, it is hoped, may be able to accomplish the task, and thus cause Hercules to turn green with envy in view of their great powers. HOMER TWITCH ELL. 8
