The Man Who Has Done His Level

First Make Sure That What You Aspire To Accomplish Is Worth Accomplishing, And Then Throw Your Whole Vitality Into It. What's Worth Doing Is Worth Doing Well. And To Do Anything Well, Wheter It Be Typing A Letter Or Drawing Up An Agreement Involving Millions, We Must Give Not Only Our Hands To The Doing Of It, But Our Brains, Our Enthusiasm, The Best - All That Is In Us. The Task To Which You Dedicate Yourself Can Never Become A Drudgery.

Which Is More Worthwhile Earning: A Large Fortune Or The Esteem And Gratitude Of The Nation? This Question Is Prompted Anew By The Death Of Ex-secretary Of The Interior [franklin K.] Lane. He Remained In Public Service, Doing Most Noble Work, Until His Means Became Absolutely Exhausted, And He Died Before Having Had The Opportunity To Reaccumulate Any Bank Account....

But If The Administration Persists In Opposing A Special Session Then It Will Inevitably Be 1926 Before Action Is Taken.... Coolidge And Congress Should Ease Our Minds And Grease Our Activities By Reforming And Reducing Taxation As Soon As Feasible After March 4.
