What Makes a Good Student?
IMAGINATION
(Second of a series of articles by
Carl Chaudoin on
“What Makes a Oood Student”)
The discussion last week was on
courage which Is very closely re
lated to the discussion for this
week. What Is Imagination without
courage or courage without Imagin-
ation? One might be a lunatic If
he had enough imagination without
courage; or a wild bull with cour-
age, but without imagination.
Columbus must have had a vivid
imagination else he never could
have seen any possibility In reach-
ing India by sailing due west.
Washington must have had it else
he never could have visualized de-
feating England with the greatest
army in the world.
Lindburgh must have had It to
have foreseen himself flying across
the seas—a feat never before ac-
complished by mortal man.
What is Imagination?
That which makes a flea thrive
on a toy dog; that which makes
two blades of grass grow where
only one grew before; that which
makes a man undertake tasks which
wlsecrackers say are impossible and
get them done. You and I enjoy
the benefits of such imaginations
daily without giving the matter
one single thought. For instance,
the automobile, the labor and
imaginings of Henry Ford; the
aeroplane, the visualization of the
Wright brothers; paved roads, the
result of the work of the Romans;
radio, wireless, the telephone, elec-
tric lights, television, and millions
of necessities, because some one or
more individuals saw a vision and
pursued them to successful dis-
covery. Thomas Edison, because he
had Imagination In an unusual de-
gree brought to civilization more
benefits than perhaps any other
man who eve. lived.
Imagination is the reverse to
doubt, fear or blind acceptance; It
Is the spirit of "Everything is pos-
sible; I do not see a way but I
"or ACHES and PAINS
SNowlikimeNT
Penetrates/ Soothes!
CORNER DRUGSTORE
will find out; If It Is a task that
must be done, I will find a way to
do It.”
If you lack imagination you lack
courage for no man has the cour-
age to undertake a task unless he
can In his own mind see the re-
sults to be accomplished, and see-
ing, believe in his ability to do the
jobv
Imagination like all other human
qualities can be cultivated and
thru exercise be increased. We
were all created with much more
ability in all directions than we
ever develop or use. If you doubt
that a thing can be done, If It has
ever been done before, if it is pos-
sible to other men, can't you do it?
If others see it can’t you by strain-
ing a bit or by continuously look-
ing, see it, too? Sure, you can.
That has been proven a million
times. Every accomplishment on
which today’s civilization has been
built was once an unheard of thing.
Someone stepped out ahead of his
fellow man, got himself called a
fool, but did the Job, then long af-
terwards he was perhaps hailed as
a hero, the savior of the race, but
greatest of all he had the satis-
faction of proving to himself his
wisdom, his courage, his ability,
and what greater satisfaction could
any man earn?
IT COULDN’T BE DONE
Somebody said It couldn’t be done,
But he with a chuckle replied:
That maybe It couldn't, but he
would be one
Who wouldn't say so till he tried.
So he buckled right In with a trace
of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid It.
He started to sing as he tackled
the thing
That couldn’t be done and he did It.
Somebody scoffed: “Oh, you’ll nev-
er do that;
At least no one ever has done It.”
But he took off his coat and he
took off his hat,
And the first thing we knew he’d
begun It.
With a lift of his chin and a bit
of a grin,
Without any doubting or quidbit.
He started to sing as he tackled
the thing
That couldn't be done and he did it.
There are thousands to tell you it
cannot be done,
There are thousands to prophesy
failure;
There are thousands to point out
to you one by one
The dangers that wait to assail
you.
But Just buckle in with a bit of a
grin,
Just take off your coat and go to
It—
Just start to sing as you iackle the
thing,
That cannot be done and you’ll
do It.
FORD V-8 WINS FOR
DUTCH AUTO RACERS
Six Ford V-8 cars piloted by
Dutch drivers triumphed conclusive-
ly over five European and two other
American entrants In the fifth an-
nual running of the gruelling 5-day
International Alpine Trial over 1,-
165 miles of Swiss, Italian and
French mountain roads, according
to official reports of the race Just
received here.
Three of the winning Fords
driven by a Dutch team captained
by Dr. J. J. Sprenger van Eyck
captured the coveted Coupe des
Alpes, while the three other Fords
won the first three places In the
individual competition for the
Coupe des Glaciers. The first two
tied for first place with the best
score of any of the dozens of con-
testants in the five classes com-
peting.
The annual Alpine contest is
probably the most severe test of
motor oar endurance and perform-
ance conducted in Europe. It Is
open to stock cars as sold to the
public. Its route from Merano, via
St. Moritz, Turin and Grenoble to
Nice, Includes the ascent and de-
scent of 12 major passes, with steep
winding roads, scores of dangerous
"halr-pln" turns and a never-end-
ing variety of road surfaces which
test alike the stamina of the cars
and the skill of the drivers.
