Luck and Lack
Don’t t rust to luck. Luck is untrust wort hy.
Systematic, scientific striving for any
goal is far mBre likely to bring you suc-
cess than any mere faith in your success.
Just as changing a single letter changes “Luck" to
"Lack,” b<» will the reverses of a single day change
plenty to want. But you can insure yourself against
tins by building your success on the habit of saving.
Save and Win
Be well dressed Make friends. Increase your in.
fiuence in your community. Knjoy the respect of
all your associates.
These things do not come to those who trust to
luck for them. Systematic saving will win them for
you. Systematic saving
will accumulate for you
a small fortune that can
safely and readily be
expanded to a large one.
