Where QUALITY Counts
16 C-alif. St - Srn Fnncirco
Ideals
Ideals are like stars; you will not succeed in touching them with your hands, but, like the seafaring man on the desert of waters, you choose them as your guides, and, following them, you read your destiny.-Carl Schurz.
Genius And Industry
I do not despise genius-indeed, I wish I had a basketfull of it instead of a brain, but yet, after a great deal of experience and observation, I have become Convinced that industry is a better horse to ride than genius. It may never carry any one man as far as genius has carried individuals, but industry will carry thousands into comfort and even to celebrity, and this it does with absolute certainty; whereas genius often refuses to be tamed and managed, and often, goes with wretched morals. If you wish for either, wish for industry.-Julian Ralph.

Living And Thinking
ft is more difficult to live on the level than it is to think on the level. In your mind you may have a pack of splendid ideals. You may admire fine actions, and abhor the other sort. But when it comes to putting these thoughts into practice, that is something else again. But it is better to think good and do bad, than to think bad and do bad also. We're not dtogether sure. that it isn,t better than it is to think bad and do good. That marks either a co\ rard or a hypocrite. But if you really think right, a lot of your thinking is bound to crop out in your actions. Keep the old brain or1 the decent track and it's apt to pull the rest of you along with it.-Selected.
