Edison's recent examination ques tluia art of general Interest to the nation. The boy wlw won will never be an Edison, but any man would be proud of him. In addition to tha technical and scientific questions, a number of ethical question were given. It may be profitable for us to look In a few of them. 1.

"What do you consider four of the most Important qualifications necessary to success in any pursuit?" Rather difficult to limit ourselves to four. Concentration, adaptability, reliability, good health these would seem indispensable But we could readily name four more. J. "Outside of the field of religion, what three men not sow living, do ydu think particularly deserve your respect and admiration?" It was characteristic of Edison to eliminate the field of religion 'Jrobably most of us would get to- gether on Washington and Pasteur, but how select one from one hun dred others?

Probably It Is best that you and I do not own a million, for It might own us. and make us play the abundant fool. 8. "If you had been given a certain experiment to perform and had been informed that It could be done successfully, but you had failed ten times, what would you do?" I feet certain that every one of the 49 boys said.

"Try again." Nobody goes very far In this life unless they keep on keeping on regardless of discouragement and obstacle. Bead the article In the August Harpers entitled "The Fight for Glory." 6. "What plate In our dally lives A Sermonette By aUf. R. O.
