THE INDEPENDENT March 1,102 S. THRIFT AND OPPORTUNITY I Many persons Pave missed their greatest opportunities in lite simply Decause they have not been able to command a small amount of ready money, while others owe their au- ■ * uncement to the fact that when a ! golden opportunity was presented jto them, they were able, financially, ito take advantage of it. : In the saving of money we often i are doing ourselves., a greater ser- , a more substantial I provision for our future progress ; than we realize. If we read the J hives of those who have become j leaders in the business world, we I find that almost without exception the. turning point ini their careeis hame when the}’ were able to take' advantage of some great opportun- ‘ [ ity because they had the money ar ' i hand. In most eases, lire sum of i ! money thus involved was small, but [ coupled with vision,>amb tion. clean- ' living and self-mastery, th >se men | •were able to turn their nest eggs into colossal fortunes. “Opportunities are more power- 1 ful than conquerors and prophets," wrote an old philosopher, and he might have added that most oppor- I tunities come as the result of thrift.

Disraei said, “The greatest secret of success in life is to be ready when your opportunity conies.” To those who are drifting along from day to day without getting ahead and apparently are making no effort to do so, this advice should should come with special force. Opportunities for self-advance-ment often come to those who, because of their thrifty habits, have gained the confidence of some person who is in a position greatly to advance their interests. Thriit and opportunity are always on friendly terms. IT'S YOUR BUSINESS 1 It has been said that this counJtry is run by strongly organized .minorities of cranks who have their r way because of the indifference of the average citizen toward the business government. While this may be somewhat ex- j aggerated it evidently contains an .element of truth. Most of us ex । hibit little interest in government either local, state, or national, until we have to pay taxes. Then we i grumble, pay anil proceed for an- , other year, too much absorlved In our own personal affairs. The crooked politician take> adl vantage of public indifference. You can get away with anything when ;no one is watching. The honest politician fails to learn what hi- con stituents need or want. He is b- - sieged with the claims and r*’ I quests of organized minorities daily. Is it any wonder that he ’.really feels, at times, that they represent the wishes and feelings of the majority of those whom he is elected to serve? So let us take an active part in [government at all times. Let us [acquire an understanding of what our public officials an» striving to । accomplish, seek to guide and in- » fluence their actions throughout - the year, and then when tax pav ing time arrives pa v without • grumbling. If taxes are too high this year.
