Common Sense
Tin* Danger* of rutting IMV Ambition.
During the past summer you have
thought occasionally that when tlie
winter evenings came you would get
down to study along some certain
line which you thought might be of
benefit to you.
Tin time is here; what have you
done?
Is it not true that you keep putting
off your study from evening to eve
ning, ana from wet k to week?
In fact, year after year you have
dawdled through the winter and let
opportunities to study slip by, excus
ing yourself by promising you will do j
it ‘next winter.”
So you find yourself no better off
and each year getting older and less
liable to get down to serious work
because of accumulating responsibili
ties.
You cannot expect to make tlie
most of your life without more study
and none can provide time for this
study buf yourself.
You could make time for it if you
were in earnest—had a definite pur
pose.
As you go on without the knowledge
you ought to bo gaining from year to |
year you will get discouraged and find
yourself unprepared to advance.
Why fritter away another year of
your life? You cannot “come back”
this way?
