'. Emphasis in Life.— Some peoplefind fault because, a few have so much in fluence in politics, in business, in society, and even in the church. They seem to forget that it is inevitable and applies evon in childhood and in youth. In every school and on every play ground a few dictate the policy, and lead in fun and hard work, in thought and action, because of the emphasis they place upon what they say and do. It is skill ib emphasis that usually de termines success. If it is known how anyone emphasises life it is easy to estimate the probabilities of success. Emphasis in life is much like emphasis; in reading. The first pi'inciple in each case is to emphasise ideas, not words. There is a radical difference between the two. Superintendent George How land of Chicago read f Evangeline ' to one of the grammar schools of that city on Friday afternoon a year ago, and I chanced to be present when the pupils read their compositions on the reading.- A bright little foreign boy wrote : — 'I thought so great a man would read very loud, but he didn't. I thought he would emphasise it lots, but he never emphasised a word ; but j oh, my, didn't he picture the story, though ! I shall see it as long as I i live.' This is a vivid illustration of emphasis upon ideas rather than words. This principle holds in life. Success depends upon magnifying essentials.
