STICKING TO 7.'tJJNI JOD- f If yo'u cannot "stick" to your pos- ition you don't count for much, If you cannot be relied upon no One can or will depend upon you no matter how smart you may be. Reliability and stability are the qualities most needed by men in the world's work. The world is full of excellent ideas, good plans and fine opportunities; but there are relatively few men who can be relied upon to carry the "ban- ner to victory." A watch that won't keep correct time is of little value to its owner, So is a bookkeeper or an accountant who constantly makes mistakes in his entries. So is a farm hand who leaves the barn door and the road gate open. So is a field worker who works one or two days and rests up for three or four. All too often the slow -going,, man beats The smart, intelligent, brilliant man because be never quits. Like the tor- toise in the fable, the slow reliable man holds on at a regular pace..and keeps it up until he finishes. The world is full of good starters but on- ly a handful of good finishers. There are golden opportunities in stare for the young man who practises stick- toitiveness. DOME THEATRE FAIR NIGHT Special Attraction BAD MAN -2 reels—Wei. S. Hart.
