Expanding - Northern Indiana
I AST WEEK, there appeared a story I in the news columns of the Journal I citing the growth, development and
3-1;:.
expansion of Syracuse and vicinity during the past year. To many people, this was ' perhaps just another news story, but to those who have the vision to grasp this development, and to understand what it means in a community, there is another picture uh olded. Only a short time ago, Syracuse was just another little village, situated in rural middle-west. For years it had lain dormant and asleep. It was unknown except in its immediate surroundings, and by a few people who came here and settled on its lakes for the summer season.
s
[UT SOMETHING happened. In | that little community there was one i man who had VISION. He talked
aoout the possibilities of development. He waged a one-man, vocal campaign whereever he journeyed, of the beautiful lakes in Northern Indiana, particularly at Syracuse. He had lived here lor years, developed his own estate which was always open to everyone. He VISIONED, year in and year out the possibilities of expansion and growth. He talked on these things in his journeys eastward and westward, whereever his business called him. Mp.ny listened. A few believed. A year ago he succeeded in convincing a few people that his idea was not a mere dream or fancy. He obtained cooperation from a few individuals. But this was still not enough. He began a task of development all his own. He is carrying that task on now, in the face of some doubt and question. But even those whq doubted and questioned are following his example. Organizations of business and professional men iJthe community are rallying to the program of FORWARD, NORTHERN INDIANA. Other communities are looking to Syracuse in wonder and amazement and envy. Many have Already expressed a desire to cooperate in the movement for A GREAT PLAYGROUND IN THE MIDDLE WEST.
qrr
HIS PAST WEEK, plans were started by local business men on a definite publicity program for the lake
country. Our Lakes will be taken to market by exhibiting pictures and scenes of their beauty at travel and outdoor shows in Indianapolis, Cincinnati and Chicago. Newspapers will carry promotion and publicity matter in greater quhnities than ever before about SYRACUSE, THE GATEWAY CITY TO NORTHERN INDIANA. The community is expanding. It is growing into maturity as a boy grows into manhood. Those who do not grasp this VISION, who cannot be constructive in their citicism and comment, will be left by the side of the road, still wondering what it’s all about. A community is just as big as we, the individuals in it, think it is, or think it can be. This community is fortunate to have in its midst, a man with foresight, VISION and the will to succeed. What are you doing to help YOUR community continue the progress that has been started? * Few of us ever turn our critical ability on ourselves. Help a ne’er-do-well and he’ll stick to you for life. _ Draw your wisdom from did men, and your enthusiasm from young men. Friends say a man is determined; enemies call him Stubborn. Experience and judgment must be gained by the slow process of doing. Beware of the man who wants to make you rich but is broke himself* As in courtship, so in domestic fighting—the real excitement occurs in the early stages. First it was press agent,[then publicity agent, then director of public* gelations, and now it’s director of the Institute. Getting along with others is the essence of getting ahead, success being linked with cooperation? Half the unhappiness in the world is due to the failure of plans which were fever reasonable and often impossible. ■—— 1 ■" i Does anybody really like the thick gravy that’s poured over the food at some restaurants? * *
A Warning
> ■ I
5 HE wisest observation noted in | recent reading is a warning against | entrusting too much money to men
who are noted for brilliant mental gilts and vision—if we want our money to be safe. “Safety,” says the writer, “is a function of prudence and not of intellectual power. The ablest men are often more ardent devotees of the goddess of chance than their less scintillating brethren.” The investor who prefers safety before gain will probably find that the ideal counsellor is a man who suffers from indigestion and has an acute memory for unpleasant events. This man is a rank cynic who holds everything in contempt, including the national anthem and spring tulips. He imagines himself beset by thieves, and is confident that the only reason he still owns the shirt oh his back is that he is too quick for thieves.
iia
URKING in the shadow of almost every successful bank, and guarding every well-managed estate, will be
found such a fellow. He will have no soul than an adding machine, no more vision than a worm, and no more intellectual brilliance than a Chinese waiter, but he will prove to be an ideal guardian for your cash. Despite war, flood, fire, pestilence, and drouth, he will manage to keep your estate intact. He won’t increase your capital perhaps, but he’ll never let a penny get away. Whg Success?
HAVE been interested, all my life, in trying to discover what makes one man more successful than an-
A
other. You see many men, young and old, who are equally well educated, equally well bred; and indistinguishable in health, energy, industry, and other qualities associated with success. One man, however, goes ahead, w , hile the other stumbles along behind and is lost in the mass. The best explanation of the difference, I think, is that the successful man has the ability to persuade other people to see things his way. This was pointed out by Col. Leonard Ayres many years ago. If the man is an architect, he bosses his client; if he is a lawyer, he bosses the judge and jury; if he is a banker, he bosses the borrower. 'He makes those with whom he works feel that his way is right, proper, and profitable. Naturally all things come to such a man. People like him and prefer to do busniess with him. They do things his way because it seems logical. Can't Stand Prosperity There is nothing like an empty stomach for promoting thought. This has been illustrated by writers and investigators doing their best work in poverty—and often going to seed after they become prosperous. It has happened, too, with many a busi-ness-fighting hard and building up in the lean years, becoming fat and sluggish in the years of plenty. When the stomach is filled with food? thq blood leaves the brain and goes to the stomach to aid digestion. Partial brain anemia ensues, and the mind functions slowly.
lITH the stomach empty, there is a ■ surplus of blood in the brain. Na* | ture is stimulating the individual to
evolve a plan for obtaining nourishment. All have noticed that if they eat too heavy a lunch they are sluggish in the afternoon. You see it in nature —all the way down to the python sleeping for days after its very occasional meal. •Prosperity, like a large dinner, generates languor. There is a let-down of the dynamic forces. Probably this explains our periods of business depression—-the reactions from prosperity causing drowsiness. With prosperity all the time, we would become like the lotus-eaters. Business dewaken us from a toxic condition resulting* from too much prosperity, -

Athletes Who Fail To Profit By Their Ability Just Plain Suckers Says Swim Star
By MAURICE MERRYFIELD International Illustrated Mews Writer CLEVELAND— Amateurism is definitely on the way out in the world ot sports and those athletes who fail to cash in on their talents as professionals are merely being played for suckers. Such is the opinion of Eleanor Holm Jarrett, greatest backstroke swimmer in history. And she is well qualified to speak on the subject. Members of the U. S. Olympic teams in 1928 and 1932, winner in the finals in 1932, she was disqualified last year on charges of breaking training and overindulging in champagne while on' the boat to Benin. “Don’t think I’m bitter about the whole subject.” said attractive Eleanor as she discussed the topic in her hotel suite. “But if I had known 10 years ago when I entered competition what 1 know now I wouldn't have been an amateur for 10 minutes! And I’m not alone in that opinion. The other night at the national indoor track meet, a dozen friends of mine, all of them topnotch stars, came over to where I was sitting and said they thought I was darn lucky to ‘have been kicked upstairs’. If you want to know, I think the United States will have a tough time organising and financing an Olympic team in 1940.” Many Stars Turning Pro “This pretense at amateurism is really silly,” she continued. “Any number of the headliners in track, swimming and tennis are paid considerable sums . for their appearances—some of them as high as $4,000 on occasion—yet are allowed to retain their amateur standing and the whole thing is charged off to ‘expenses’.” Within a decade, in her opinion, even such sports as tennis, swimming and track, which have long held out from going will be put on a commercial basis almost entirely. Such competition as is still restricted to amateurs in another ten years will be insignificant, she believes. ,-f Supporting her contention is the tendency of amateur athlete stars to cash in on their talents. Among those who have been lured; from the “simon pure” ranks recently are such notables as Sonja j Henie, world champion skater now in the Perry, worldls No. 1 amateur tennis playqf now barnstorming with a pro trOfrpe 1 of which the former king of the courts, Ellsworth Vines, is a. member; Lawson Little, who reigned

by JEAN ALLEN . International Illustrated News { Writer HOLLY WOOD—Recent publication of several early photos of current film stars has caused no little consternation Kmong many of the movie headliners for fear that they will be accorded similar treatment. Some of Jhe most important in the picture cttlopy*- those who carry sufficient authority to make their requests stick—have vetoed the release of any photographs which do not have their approval. Others less fortunate .ate unable to keep the magazines and publications from obtaining pictures taken before they had attained their present eminence. ' Os course, what makes it difficult foi' any of them to maihtgyi an effective censorship is the. fact that hundreds of stills taken any* where from five to 15 years ago, depending upon the length of their respective careers, repose in the files of various pubiicatieas.
