This kind of success topples with the increased strength of the neck. DONT try to force the world to your own way of thinking and acting. You may do a great injury thereby. DONT be too eager to lead before before you have first learned to follow. “He who would govern others must first be master of himself; which is our most difficult task.” DONT calculate on spending all you make before you die. You may live longer than you calculate. Then there is your posterity to whom you owe a debt. DONT invest in an automobile when your most needed investment is in a home in which to sleep after the automobile outing. The top of the ladder cannot be reached until you have first touched the rounds be low. DONT aspire to gain influence by fooling your fellowmen. Hypocri sy is a very thin over-garment which is easily torn. When this happens, it will make more' con spicuous the filth of the under-gar ment which will be to your great shame. DONT get the “swell-head” thinking you know too much to learn more. When you have learned all about this planet, there are seven more about which you know nothing— and then some. DON’T content yourself with what your forefathers have accomplished. Your duty is not done until you yourself have achieved something. KNOW THE CONSTITUTION The Ten Original Amendment* to the r. S.
