James Dabney STUDENT BODY HEARS INSPIRING SPEAKERS On Friday, April 21, at the regular assembly period, Dr. Frazer, President of Queens-Cbieora College, outlined to the students of the high school the course of action for The Man Who Would Be King. He recalled God's promise, There shall not fail thee a man on the throne of Israel, and the, universal demands of Kingship, Be thou strong, and show thyself a man. Having defined his ideal as one who obeys the law, he warned his audience that side-stepping the law invariably makes one less able to obey. Life is a game, he declared. and one must obey the rules. Dr. Frazer concluded his address with the startling declara- tion that not favoritism but prepara- tion gives one a chance. There is a prepared place for every prepared person. ' - , at is 1: 1 On April 21, Dr. McSween. President j of Presbyterian College at Clinton,' gave a most inspiring lecture. choos- ing for his topic How to be Success- ful. He was emphatic in his state- ment that everybody can be successful if he is willing to pay the price, the highway being so well-marked, that you cannot miss it. Ambition, clearly defined, is to be our chart, and we dare not fold over the map and thus obscure the objective. Dr. McSween urged upon his audience the strin- gency of the times as a challenge, de- claring that self-discipline is to be the best teacher of all. In his words, Make yourself do the things you don't want to do, and know you ought to do. Only the self-disciplined person can become a leader. He who would lead must first him- self be led, Who would be loved be capable of love beyond the utmost he re- ceivesg Who wield the rod of power must first have bowed his head. And being honored, honor what is above, This know the men who leave the world their names. The block of granite which was an obstacle in the pathway of the weak becomes a stepping stone in the path- way of the strong.-Carlyle. VVhat men want is not talent, it is purpose: not the power to achieve, but the will to labor.-Bulwer Lytton. A certain amount of opposition is a great help to a man, kites rise against and not with the wind. One can easily stop when he as- cends, but not when he descends- Napoleon I. f RILEY DRUG CO.
