JOHN BLAKB
WASTINtiENEltttV
OINCK the beginning of time men
hav wasted millions of yenra of
energy In tryln to naive the unknow
able. Tim mysteries of life and death, the
puir.le. of space, theso things are be
yond the grasp of the human mind.
Let them alone. There Is abundant
knowledge that can be learned, useful
knowledge that will help you with
your career. . '
Study that kind of knowledge. Take
mental food thut your mind can digest.
Tuke It In abundance. Work hard to
get It.
Hut do not torture your mind with
problems that are beyond your reach.
A scientist, searching for truth, de
termine us soon as he can In whut
directions he can inuke progress. And
his researches follow In these direc
tions. Where he sees it stone wall set up
tigalnst him, he turns aside.
There U no use trying to travel any
further In that way. There Is plenty
of wyrk to do that can he done. And
that li the work thut occupies the
Investigator's mind.
The average man will need all his
brains and ull his energy studying
things tht can bo found out. We do
not mean things that are already
known. If you stopped with these, tho
world would forever remain In Its
present Ignorance, which Is vast com
pared with what It will know In the
future.
Rut where life conies from, why It
flickers for a brief space nnd dies,
and what Is beyof d the stars Is some
thing that until we receive hitherto
unheard of light, wo shall never know.
Waste no time on these problems.
They are as vain iin tho efforts of the
alchemist to turn base inetnls to gold,
which occupied brains that might have
been bettor used on loarniui; more use
ful things.
Learn first the limitations of the
subject that you study. That will
dispose of much puzzle and worry, and
enable you to go ahead and give It
the time and thought that may ndd
to the world's store of wisdom, nnd
will certainly mid to your own.
