WRIGHT MAKES SUCCESS TALK TO PRISONERS 'Let the Dead Past Bury Own Dead,’ Is Plea of Dry Bill Author. Bu Time) Ft>r, ini PENDLETON, Dec. 30.—“ We get Just about what is coming to us in this life,” Frank (Bone Dry) Wright, state representative from Marlon county and author of the Indiana prohibition law, told the prisoners at the Indiana state reformatory in chapel Sunday. Superintendent A. F. Miles of the Institution invited Wright for the Sunday sermon. He formerly was a fund-raising orator for the Indiana Anti-Salcon League. (In part, the speech is reproduced verbatim.) "Os course, there are exceptions.” Wright declared, "but usually we reap as we have sown. Possibly you didn’t get a break, but let the past bury the dead. Yours is a glorious heritage and the future is yours to make or mar. Willing to Pay Price "You can make yourself anything you want to, if you want to bad enough and are willing to pay the price. Your thoughts are things that make you what you are. Your dreams of today are the thoughts of tomorrow, your thoughts of tomorrow are the acts of next week and the acts of next week get to be the habits which form your character. "If we don’t like our conditions as we find them we can change them. “Years ago when just a lad. I heard Elijah P. Brown, editor of the Rams Horn whose trite sayings were read around the world, deliver a lecture. I do not even remember the subject, I scarcely remember how he looked, but the story he told of how he determined to be somebody still rings in my ears.” Wright then told of Brown’s success and urged the prisoners to emulate his. To those who think they haven’t a chance, he pointed out that the world is now filled with opportunities of which Abraham Lincoln never dreamed. No Easy Wav "There is no open door to the temple of success,” he continued. "He or she who enters there must fashion his own key. "Within each one of your breasts I am sure there is a longing to be something—to do something worth while—to be a success. But what is success? "A man once went out to seek success. Day after day he toiled along the crowded highway meeting many upon the same quest. At last, wearied by his efforts, he determined to leave the beaten path, and seeing at his feet a beautiful meadow on the other side of which was a thicket, he crosed the meadow and entering the thicket lay down in its shelter and was soon sleeping soundly. In his dreams ‘success’ stood by his side and speaking, said: Not Crowded Ways “ ’Seek me not upon the crowded highways, for I seldom travel there, but rather seek me in fair, fresh fields, out upon the hillside, upon the mountain top or upon the arid desert plain, for I love to wander there. I tread in trackless places in pathless forests. Oft I dally by the little brooklet, as it winds its way across the plain and merges foreven in then boundless main. How often when alone with nature do we realize the true deeper meanings of success.’ "If you would go far on life’s pathway you must be alive. Are you being hauled along by some one else having the very power you should have, but. lack? ‘Awake! Kindle the fire of knowledge. Develop the steam that will enable you to do things. Don’t wait. Study seriously. Nothing but your own weakness is strong enough to hold you back.” At the close of the sermon Wright sought to have the prisoners hold up their right hands in resolve to do better on the new year. Two sons and a stepson of the speaker provided instrumental music. Don Wright played the cornet, Harold the violin and Brunson Motley the piano.

EVEN GLASS IS GUILTY Chicago Restaurant Operators Hear of New Prohibition Move. Bn United Press CHICAGO. Dec. 30.—Chicago restaurant and cabaret proprietors who have considered the going pretty hard in the past when their places were closed by federal injunction on "observation” evidence only, are going to find it even worse in the future, according to Laveme Norris, assistant United States district attorney. According to Norris, the United States court of appeals at Denver has held that a glass, owned by a restaurant and from which an intoxicant has been drunk, is sufficient evidence to send the proprietor to jail for a year. The establishment need not have sold the liquor. PROBE CHILD DEATHS Starvation, Neglect by Parents Is Hinted by Prosecutor. Bu United Press WHEELING, W. Va„ Dec.. 30.
