J I m ~ haled Men Had Inferiority Complexes **i# * * * Timid People Who Feel Themselves Weaker Than Cfthers Forge Their Way to the Goal of Greatness. D f .oON i

New York, Feb. ' '. —“Hitch your) I | wagon to a star." How often havt we been offered tlwt gratuitous ad-, I vice as tile short cut to success ?| ! Hut why waste tint 3 reaching for; i a star when you've got something ias good at home? The chances j are that you, in common with 90 1 per cent of mankind, ate the po--i sessor of an I. C. and she'll get you I there just as surely as a star. An inferiority complex is nothing more or less than the know!i edge that we have a shortcoming jof some kind. It may be a physiI cal thing like an impediment in i speech nr squint eyes, or it may be I psychological such as lowly birth ! !or environment. Whatever it in, j | if we know we hare it we have the j I great incentive to success; for with i our I. C. we have the powerful! urge to overcome the handicap. The trouble is that most people arc unaware of their shortcomings and ar? content to stick in the samo old rut. i j Edison was backward at school, lHe couldn't assimilate nor retain j j what he was taught. He knew this] and the knowledge dro«o him I i I tine great effort of self-develnn | meat that made him the greatest j inventor of all time, j ll' Abraham Lincoln lmi.u t fell, 'that he wasn't as good as the hoys II with schooling be would never have strained his eyes by the fit i | ful light of a log fire, cramming] | "book lamin'" into Ills head, and] a great statesman would have been lost. I History is replete with exam f pies of really broat people who

fought the good light w ith I C. \ and won to find themselves .1 the 1 top of life's ladder. / t Alexander the Gr *t, who lived 1 iin an age when only fu'l-bloode 1 ! Greeks made the Serial Register,|] ] started life with two strides on 1 him. He had a Macedonian dad ] I and his mother was a wild princess it rrom Olympus, so the poor kid, i wasn't even half Greek The other i. kids of the times made things j i , pretty miserable for little Alex an- i ! til the old inferiority complex as- j i I sorted itself. Alex got busy over- i ; coming the handicap of birth and ! ended up one of the greatest i Emperors the world ever had. | Among his many achievements was i | the conquest of Egypt — which j brings the “IT" girl of the Nile into the picture. Cleopatra discovered early in lif’ that her nose was half an inch shorter than the standards set by the Ziegfelds of the period demanded. Did Cleo waste her time sobbing about, it? She didn't. In-] (stead, she deliberately went out of, ] h r way to put the, come-hither oil | every male wttil'n reach just toi prove to her girl friends that they couldn’t get to first, base while she | was around abbreviated nose or - . not. But Cleo did have something. ■ Good Queen Hess had nothing. ; Queen Elizabeth was hard to look | at —even for a doting mother. Sim j became conscious of her ugliness in her extreme youth and as a rej suit kept herself in seclusion, read ing most of the time and acquiring ja vast store of knowledge that » «

was very useful to England in as-1 tor years when she became Queen I of England with more “yes men" I than a Hollywood mevie magnate*' I ridy Astor. of the noble but impoverished Langhron family of Virginia, had the inferiority complex which is common property among many of the leading families of the south. Since the days of the Civil War, they have shown us that although we may have had , more of the germ of ambition inoculated in us, they have better blood and breeding than we can ever hope to have. Well, the little lady has to the world what she's made of. She has become one of the leading "statesmen" of the British Empire. Even our own Theodore Roosevelt had to fight a battle with I. C. before he became the "Teddy" of Iradition. When he was a child he, was practically dying of coHsutnptipn and stuttered to beat the band. Hut by sheer determination to be j like and healthy living ;in tlie open, lie overeafno those ] weaknesses and became the greatest man in the Government of his ! country. I The list of great nven and women who had a handicap to heat is welt night endless and.it would be well to eninlale the great example which they have set us, instead of bemoaning our shortcomings.

EACH BRICK COST ALL-DAY SUCKER ... • !< ■ Grand Island, Neb,, Feb. J..— <U.R) I — Fantasy surrounds \ the story j“The House That Jack Built." ■Realism surrounds this one—" The | Store That All-Day Suckers Built.' I Years ago. George Watson, in the | northeast part of this city, started ! a grocery store. It was a ( small | beginning, and Watson's one . room j store also housed a black smith shop. He calls his store today, “The Cow barn Grocery," for it was a barn where he first started. Tourists inquired at Watson’s smithy for directions to the nearest grocery. Right then and there he decided to lay in a stock of ! canned goods and "sideline' 'a hit. | along with shoeing horses and j pounding red-hot wagon tires. Business flouiished. Watson's knotty fingers soon limbered up so that he could tie a package and show customers what tine navy beans he had for sale. He began neglecting blscksmithing for his more lucrative trade. But he'd
