' But they while their companions aiepi Were toiling upward in- the night.' s-Loncfpllow. "Is there a sure rule (or success?" writes Mary. "Sometimes when e othet girls being promoted right over my head,! get very cynical and wonder if you have to stand in with someone in authority in order to make good, -or have winning vays, or uitauential friends or whatr "At the end oi 5ve years I'm just about where I was when I started out to work when I -was 19.- I'm bored by, the sameness of it all. don't see how to set ahead and I don't fivta see anything fine in the mape ot nappy love coming my wav.". 1 ' Turning from her letter, I pick up tins one irom jerry: "How's a fellow Koine to make good nowadays?

That's the one, sure-fire, all wool and a yard wide, . double-barreled, guaranteed and "certainteed" rule of ' succeff. -" ''"'" Has Jerry ever seen the other end of the road traveled by the son of the friend of the boss, provided he didn't work and make good? , Has Mary ever noticed the path traveled by the girl promoted because she had, dimples and inclined tD try to run a foreign correspondence about a million dollar contract on 'Jie same basis? . The trouble with being an object (or, subject) of favoritism is that everything looks so easy at 'he start. Dress Hats of Laee Are Very Popular' Lace brims this season rdll upward alid their transparency makes a soft frame for tlir face. .Tin" model nirturert has a draoed crownvof black satin, hich fits well down over the hairnd the wireii chantilly lace' brim is mounted over airy black tulle. Such a hat may be worn at a restaurant in the evening, or at a late afternoon affair where tormai costume is ae manded. It is not suitable for mornini hours. Lace hats are gay and frivolous affairs which go with dressup clothes, and this year the; small black hat is seen with light frocks in; the resturants. , . : . t y 0 It seems as if nothing were required save a little more of the same brand of luck or sweetness that got the opportunity for the fortunate crea ture who just falls into things. And,, far from the facts. JN'othing harder than to make good without : a background of knowledge. Nothing is more diffi cult to get than knowledge that isn t based on training. v; And training takes time and work and effort and concentration and th6 "do-it- yourself" spirit..

There's only one surp road to"$uc cess, and i it's long aud rocky and tiresome, yeaklings tall ,4 by the wayside. Cowards don't start.. Lazy folks take one look and quit, be cause they hate even to contemplate the effort required.; But the folks who mean business, who want to make good, who have the stamina to fight through, recognize the truth, and accept it wifhout a mUrmur. . There's no royal road to success but the long, time-consuming, often discouraging, steep and cold and thorny and lonely path of work. Work and ask no favors. Work and believe in yourself and your power-to reach your goal. DO IT YOURSELF-and you're bound to succeed. . ' , . By CORINNE LOWE New York. (Special Correspond ence.)
