A.; Cleo Blackburn, superintendent of the Planner House guest speaker. In his unique and effective mannSr instilled into the minds of the young group, that to be a successful man or woman, there are three important factors to keep in mind: 1. Simplicity; do not live above your means, if you are making $150 a month do not try to live as one making $300 per month. 2. Industriousness; If you are able to reach a certain goal, do not stop, set a higher goal and continue to set higher goals. 3. Remain teachable; Regardless of what you may know or how much you may know, there is always someone who can tell you more. Another very impressive remark was, the successful business man or woman MUST cater to the masses and not to the "400,” for it is the masses wihch support the so-called intelligentsia of the race.
