Forseverance Perseverance is ability to continue in a given course in the face of dis- courasement. This ability is a common trait of all great mene When all seems to go wrong they kept on by force of will, sometimes obstinately, against op- position and remonstrance. Not giving way to opposition, nor to seemingly immovable difficulties which block the path to success, they strove on only seeing their goale Such was the life of many a successful man; Napoleon, Hannibal, and Wash- ington as conmanders; Washington, Lincoln, Cacsar, and Jefferson as politicians and statesmen; Pasteur as o scientist; and, Franklin as a business mane To all these in the past and to many others belongs one of the most necessary human attributes, Nor were only people of the past blessed with this great traite No, not at all; for many men of high station at the present time only gained thoir position through struggle and the hard climb to reach the tope Sut not all are famous by any means, although, by perseveráng,, fame is helped. If one perseveres he can do many othor things which others, more impatient, givc up as useless, in disgust and other helplessness e is a close friend of patience, and forcofullness, j Perseverance bears great reward, if not in material gains, in the satis- fying kmowledge that as much as possible has been done to complete the desig- nated work, So, when éver possible, let perseverance help you in succeedinge Adhere to the possibilities perseverance offers, -- and succecd 1 --Anthony Eaton. Perseverance Work The majority of people find that work is very todious and monotonous e Some of us seem to think that life becomes humdrum with working day after daye Perhaps we never stop to think what we might do if we had no work to performs there are some who like to shun work and shift it onto the next fellow's shoulders. What would hoppen if everyone maintained that attitude? Many people who have had no work and nothing to occupy their minds have strayed along the wrong paths and cortainly have not proyed themselves worthy of lifee To illustrate the evils of idleness we may take the childwof a wealthy man. If he is not properly taught ond trained the right habits and taught to do for himsolf he seldom docs onything truly great. We wore nll put hore to accomplish some- thing in life but if we don t know how to go about to accomplish anything we are lost, - Usually person, when ho gets along in years, likes to think back and think of the worthwhile things ho has done and if ho has done many, he has 4 feeling of contentment ond satisfaction, On tho other hand, if ho has led a hectic worthless lifo he has a rather dismal and unpleasant retrospective. Ho realizos then that he could have derived as much pleasure from work as play e So, if we attain and keep the spirit that work is something more than toil wo will never have that to rcgrot in later years. --Wilma Qualey
