THINK PROSPERITY
There is much talk of Canada be
ing prosperous to-day. It is doubt
less true. The country's prosper
ity need not be questioned. ' Most
of us are more concerned with our
individual prosperity than with the
country's. This is quite a natural
feeling, though possibly somewhat
seljish. Possibly the best way to
make and keep a country prosper
ous is to have each individual in the
country prosperous. It is not true
national prosperity when there are
some unprosperous.
There is an- individualism in re
gard to prosperity that is often over
looked. Prosperity is largely a mat
ter of personality. If onr decides
to be prosperous and refuses to be
poor, he can be prosperous. It is
harbouring the thought of poverty
that keeps us poor. Will Shake
speare said, ‘‘There is nothing evil
but thinking makes it so,” which
may be applied to man’s financial
conditions
might put

poor. This
solation to the fellow who is hard
up, to the wife and mother niuldn”.
a desperate struggle1 to make both
ends meet on the busband’s low
wages, or to the man or woman out
of work. Yet is is true that the
very sense of poverty, the feeling of
it, makes poverty worse. It induces
a feeling of hopelessness, dims the
eyes and slows the step. If this be
true, the converse must be irue,
that a consciousness of prosperity
will irvig’ora'.o and make one buoy
ant. - •
T.t. may sound trite to say so, but.
it i< very true that to think pover
ty is io experience poverty; to think
prosperity is to assure prosperity.
Let us get the thought of abundance
into our minds, and remember that
under the Law of Abundance there
is plenty of everythig in the worjd
for everybody; more fruits of the
earth than mankind can eat; more
of everything than the human fam
ily requires. A consciousness of pros
perity will attract to us oui snare of
the abundance of life. We shall
see that if there is no lack anywhere
there need he no lack in our case.
Try thinking prosperity instead of
thinking poverty and notice what a
difference it will make in your
dition and circumstances.

Think for a moment what would
happen,, if, even for one week, every
body in town were to shop elsewhere
either in a neighboring town or by'
mail! Would it not cause conster
nation and would not all business
houses be very much cocerned? They'
.certainly would, and with good rea
son. And what is the result. Every
dollar s,ent to distant business
houses is gone for good so far as
this particular (district is concern-.
ed, and 'merely serves to build up
and maintain some distant town,
local business men are robbed of
that circulation of money which dur
ing its ramblings might help dozens .aiding the way. All business houses I
need more or less printed matter,
all of which is within the possibili
ties of the local printer. Yet how
prone many are to pass up the home
printer and let orders go to the
city offices which have.no interest
whatever in rural communities ex-1
cdpt 'to get ’printing orders and the.,
cash paid for then!. Business men,

“To realize that I am a business
man and ambitious to succeed, biR
that I am first an ethical man aiid
wish no success that, is not founded
on the highest justice and morality.”
Such is the statement taken frqm
the code of ethics' of. one of di:r"
leading service culbs. It is one 9f
the applications of 'the great node,
the Golden Rule.
The statement implies ambition,
and rightly so; for one who is not
ambitious isn’t much good to, him
self and likely less good to o’thers.
It is in the next statement where
the boot is apt to pinch, “to attain,
success founded on the highest jus-,,
tice and morality.” - When men in
dividually, as ivell as collectively,
will adopt such a 'code of ethics, we
may hope to look for wouderfud
things happening in our relations of
man to man. It is very easy for a
group or class to adopt a certain
standard of ethics; is is very much
harder when you come to make the
application individually. A code of
ethics loses much of its value if the
individual of the group is not pre
pared to live up to the standard set
by the group. Originally that was
the intention; but, alas, when we
come’ to make the personal applica-
of it, the ethical man is found want
ing, and the man of self takes first
place. How much am I prepared to
give up? And in my business trans
actions should I consider the other
fellow?
Everyday Duties Count.
In the everyday duties of
which come to us is to be found
battle ground upon which you and 1
must express ourselves. That is the
testing place to see if I can live up
to the code of ethics I have subscrib
ed to as a member of a society. If I
fail, I have lowered the standard and
efficiency to the extent of my fail
ure.
It would be a very good plan if
every man, whether he is a member
of a society or not, would ask him
self, What is my code of ethics? He
might be surprised to find he had
none, or, if he had, it was open to
criticism, and
find it to a

There are two things that hus

is the one to whom she makes°a con
