SEE VICTORY
All Defeats are not final ones. Sheridan it was who
turned defeat into victory merely by riding upon the field,
facing his demoralized army, and with matchless matrnetisn
cryiitjf out: "Turn, boys, turn—we're troint; back!"
In a competitive match, neither man knows the limits
of the other.
Is Ls your business to see victory—and then to work votii
way to it. I have recently been reading the short bit
jrntphies of successful men and this is what I have noticed
as a thread running through the accounts of them all. Each
man ket seeing his success—something bigger all the timt
And what you see. others will believe that you see and
they will be glad to follow your leadership.
The winning salesman knows that he must mane his pros
pective customer see exactly what he has seen—antl felt—
in the goods he has to sell. When this is accomplished, th.
sale is made.
See victory in the very day as you open your eyes upon
it when arising.
Then as you enter into the serious tasks of your lift
you are sure to get the most out of all your plans.
Ihit never give up. Keep believing that you will wir
Keep KNOWING that you cannot fail.
See victory!
If things look dark, dont look dark. Never let the
other fellow get the idea that you MIGHT give up. Stick
to vonr guns. I^arn to ktad and re-lead. ACT success.
Handicapped' Who could have been more handicapped
than Helen Keller, who was born blind, dumb and deaf? An-.'
this determined girl graduated with high honors from a prreai
college ami has become one of the most useful women of her
time.
First SEE victory—then go get it.
O
LLOYD GEORGE
Reports from London indicate that if Lloyd George sur
vivos the present political crisis his resignation is only ;
matter of time. His desire to remain in power until after the
Genoa conference and to have time to complete several othei.
measures, will probably be granted.
Americans have to tome to regard Lloyd George as oni
tif the figures of the world like the Spinx, Gibraltar, and th<
leaning tower of Pisa. He has been in power so Long, he ha
so absolutely dominated the affairs of the fmpire that
seems he is the government.
No other English statesman ever was called upon t
bear such responsibilities as Lloyd George has borne. The
problems that confronted Gladstone. Disraeli and others wen
simple compared with those incident to the co'Vhtet of the
World war and the reconstruction.
England has many great and able men. but none appeal
to have the courage of Lloyd George. His administration ha-
been marked as much by the daring of his course as l>y
the vision and vigor of execution displayed by the coalition
ministry.
Lloyd George is the only one remaining of the Great war
leaders. Clemenceau, Wilson. Orlando antl the others did
not survive long after the peace conference. Lloyd Georg<
Ls tired and worn out physically and, doubtless, will welcomi
an opportunity to rest.
No world statesman is held in higher regard in America
than Lloyd George. He is one of the type that appeals ti
the American imagination, an aggressive fighting man. With
the premier and Viscount Bryce removed from official activi-
ties, Americans will feel that this country, in a measure, has
lost direct contact with the administrative forces of the em-
pire.

Chas. E. Mitchell's indictment of the republican party
for its placing a tariff wall between the United States and the

convince any court that the republican party is guilty of i.
