Me surely "had a pick" en Eliner.
KethiFig- the girl did pleased her.
Parents wanted te change schools.
Wefwas a senior wouldn't go.
Site, must graduate with her class.
JSer specialty was literature, tee.
Ha really has genius, is original.
Her imagination is vivid
Me sees eterics in cverrthln.
t tThe cites began story-writing.
C IHIndr worked nights en hers.
The teacher despised them.
8he!d pick the heroine te pieces.
Then she'd ask the class opinion.
They secretly liked the stories.
Couldn't say se after the drubbing.
They echoed Teacher little snobs!
"Vete seems against you, Eliner.
Better, put It in the waste basket."
Eliner wretchedly dropped it in.
Jfer face flamed se did her heart.
Se did mine when I heard it.
I 'wanted te rend that teacher.

Exactly as it was I typed it.
Net even a comma was disturbed.
Then I mailed t te an editor.

Nothing succeeds like success.
Teacher smiled sourly ever it.
She even slipped into slang:
"Se you have put one.evcr en me !

Seme day Eliner will be heard from.
Isn't it odd?

"... A Postcard te "the Bess" Ten Years te Reach
TTTATE frequently plays peculiar pranks, but Sew that take se whimsical a turn
4?. as 'the one she just played en Frank O'Kecfe.
v Over ten yenrs age Frank O'Kecfe had a job surveying the Harlem river
waterfront, New Yerk city.
One evening he mailed a postcard te his superior, the superintendent of
decks, reporting en the day's work.
- The ether day, after a deende spent in traveling, the postcard arrived at the
fflce of the superintendent of deckR, nnd was duly delivered tc-rFrank O'Kcefe!
Ve this isn't a misprint it is a happy fact.
Fer while the postcard had taken ten years te travel twelve mle.s, Frank
O'Keefe had made much mere rapid progress lie had occupied practically every
pest in .the Harber Engineering Department, and had become "chief" super'
intendent of decks !
If you today mailed a postcard te "the bewi," nnd it took ten years te reach
s-would that postcard finally get te you?
A' letter sent te n grent many men nt the present time, addressed in their
fflclal care, would read something like, "Te Jehn Smith, clerk."
" rrC ..... rAm .... mr,n nf ttinm w rnrl. "rn Jnhn Smith, ceneral man-
CU JLUia iiuiii uun, eju.v - .. .i... ., , wj
fer'
'te Jehn Smith, president" ; or "te Jehn Smith, superintendent.
Vt veu be one of them?
There arc many men who today are addressed as "president," "manager,
superintendent',' and sucrf, who, ten years from new will have traveled the ether
,ray.
Yeu don't want te, be ene of them.
Ten years is n long time time te survey your route, map your chart, and
te the work that will secure you the respect, position and possessions that alone
jake'llfe worth the struggle and time te dance, dawdle, waste and titivate
and book yourself for the ranks of second and third raters.
TVhcrc de you mean te be ten years from new?
f Hew have you planned te get there?
? And what arc you doing te make your plans into realities?
I Yeu will be wiser ten years from new you don't want te be sadder.
'T Yeu ought te be abler you ought te be established by that time, sure of
jfeurself and your destination.
If you. today, mailed a postcard te "The Bess" and it took ten years or e
te reach would that postcard finally get te you?
Think it ever. "
