A Philadelphia merchant ad-
vertised for a young man to
learn the business. Among the
young, men who answered his
advertisement was one who in
address, personal appearance,
and otherwise seemed to meet
the requirements. All through
the conversation, however, the
merchant felt that he had seen
the young man somewhere, un-
der conditions not wholly favor-
able. He prolonged the inter-
view hoping that he might recol-
lect exactly the circumstances,
and, finally itWawned upon him
that he had seen the young man
frequently in the company of a
loud-dressed, loud-mouthed
sport, and* cautiously inquired
whether or.^ot they were friends.
The youijg|man colored deeply
w6en he explained that his com-
panion on the occasion in ques-
tion. was a former schoolmate
and a neighbor with whom he
kep on good terms for policy's
sake, concluding his explanation
with this remark: "He is by
no means an associate, and I
hope I am not to be judged by
the company I rarely keep."
Considerably relieved the mer-
chant assured him that he was
not, but added: "Always be
careful of your associates."
Young men, and young women,
too, can heed no better advice.
They are generally judged by
their associates. Birds of a
feather flock together. They
always have an4 . they always
and thaiJajK'hy the public
iorms its conclusions regarding
this young man or that, this
young woman or that.
As in the case of the young
man whom the merchant almost
misjudged it is sometimes neces-
sary to associate with those
whom one may not like, even
with those whom one may dis-
like, for some reason or other;
indeed, it may be necessary to
associate with thsoe whose com-
panionship may call in question
the character of the one so do-
ing, with the possible injury of
his reputation, but such assoc-
iation should be made as in-
frequent as possible, and when
necessary should t^e so con-
ducted as to leave no doubt what-
ever regarding one's character.
This^can be done by maintaining
proper conduct, for the contrast
will emphasize the difference,
It was such different conduct
that caused the Philadelphia
merchant to accept the protesta-
tions of the young man he was
considering, and take him into
his establishment where he is to-
day "confidential man" in the
\
business. And he is himself
one of the most earnest apostles
of the advice of his employer:
" Be careful of your associates "

A VALUABLE SUGGESTION TO OURi
YOUNG PEOPLE—CONCENTRATE
Doh't spatter a pint of brains
over the vast field of art, science
and literature. Don't think that a
smattering of Greek and Latin,
Analytics and college yells make
0De a learned man or fits him for
business, and don't hitch a business
brain to a Greek lexicon. Many a
man becomes nothing by trying to
become all. The shot gun uses
much more ammunition than the
rifle, but it isn't half as effective
except on little game. *
The professions are all over-
crowded; it requires half a life
time for one to succeed in them,
and half a fortune to begin success.
With business it is not so.
Get busy; do things; life's too
short for business men to spend
effort on dead languages and other
things two thousand years old;
when living issues and golden op-
portunities are calling them on.
The things that business men
want you to know are not taught
in a university. They must be
learned in a practical business
training school like the Tyler Com-
mercial College of Tyler, Texas-
A school that has for years studied
the demands of the business world,
and with its own special prepared
text books and " learn to do by
doing" methods of teaching, are
meeting them.
They are this year adding a
course of business administration
and finaace for those who desire
the most thorough business train-
ing possible. Young friends, there
ip no walk of life that you can pur-
sue as successfully without a busi-
ness training a&Avith it.
Next week thijsfcaper will publish
statements fromlBiuy of America's
greatest statesmen and business
men as to the value of a business
training.

The Texas Commercial Secre-
taries and Business Men's
Association have taken a census
of county and district fair or-
ganizations and reports that
ninety-two fairs will be held in
Texas this Fall, 5182 premiums
will be offered and $75,000 dis-
tributed as prizes. The fair
as an industrial educator
and advertising medium
is without a peer. It is the
farmer's show window, the
manufacturer's sample room,
the miner's laboratory and the
demonstration counter of in-
dustry. The time was when red
lemonade, hobby horses and the
call of the fakir were leading
features of the fair but the dumb
eloquence of fruits and vege-
tables has drowned the voice of
the peanut orator; the, low of
blooded kine is more thrilling
than the music of the merry-go-
round and modern farm mach-
inery is more interesting than a
baloon ascension. The county
faUr is a great civilizer and is
doing more to promote our pro-
gress than any other single in-
fluence in Texas.
