The stories are about the advent of
young Jock McChesney into the ad-

Jock tackled resulted in a failure
which nearly knocked Jock off hil

tells Jock why he fell down:

critics call a personal hit; but that

Experience
By George Matthews Adams.
Experience is the simple process of
picking up what othfcr people have
dropped. In addition, it is picking up
and making use of what you yourself
may have thrown away. Then it is
that you find that you too have saved
up something.
Hire out-—to your Eyes, Ears,
Hands, Feet.
Then Set them to work. Send your
Byes into the secrets of the Trees,
Stones, Plants, Waters, Animals, Stars,
Books—People; your Ears into the
great Highways of Teaching, Music,
Bird Singing; your Hands into the
honorable shaping of the Soil—the
building of Machines and Cities; your
Feet to the rescue of Need, the find-
ing of Facts, and the meeting of
Duty. -*l.v i
Hire out—to your Eyes, Ears,
Hands, Feet.
For Experience will never come to
you unless you go after it.
Hire out—to " your Eyes, Ears,
Hands, Feet.
Outwardly every human being
shapes quite the same. But each,
mastered by Experience, walks off
into devious paths to show up later
as a/Ruler or a Servant. Your Experi-
ence Tags you* The World places you
easily after a glance at your fag.
Like a bold, flashing Electric Sign it
blazes out your Worth to the Crowd.
Accumulate Experience!
Hire out—to your Eyes, Ears,
Hands, Feet.
This day—USED—will fill your
Pockets and Soul_ with Experience.
And the fuller your Pockets and Soul
get, the greater will grow your Power
and your Wealth- Abhor the useless.
With Enthusiasm, go after the -things
that those above you did not neglect
to grasp. For no two have ever quite
experienced the same thing the same.
Tou have the Chance to make YOUB
Experiences play into your hands as
have those of none before you. Let
this burn into your brnln—
