The speaker affirmed thnt no one ran suc- rccd in life without somewhere along the line making a sacrifice to advance thnt for the time-being seems the in te rest of another party or cause. How ever sooner or Inter will come his turn to score and then the applause of the galleries will be his. One of his, rest Illustrations consisted of a story taken out. of the life of he lecturer. He told bow when a boy there was horn on the home farm a small undersized calf. After considerable "effort young Pan succeeded In getting father to let. him keep the calf as his own.

Paul told how his only e njoyment came when his newly-made brother-in-law had to milk the cow which proved to be an exceptionally hard milker. He came with sledge hammer blows on the citizen who constantly klcks-on the community for not finding in the community what he or she wants, hut makes no effort on their part to on tribute anything to the community's success. He delivered invectives against the business man who makes his money and success, In the com munity without contributing a fair return, to the community's organiza tions like the church, school nnd Y.

Secretary Martin Ver hurg who Is acting as manager of the local course introduced the speaker and thanked thr audience for their patronage and cooperation and an nounced the nevt two numbers coming on Peeemlier 1" nnd 20. respectively . Mr. Dietrich spoke at tlie- Central and High schools during the day and met with the Rotnry club at noon and sp.ifie to the men of that organization on 'The Home Team." Possibly no speaker has appeared In the city for' a long time who could so readily fit info the needs of the com munity and offer such practical and more workable suggestions. That the number last night was an asset goes without: saying. Concord always have a warm spot for Mr. Dietrich and will jyelcome him back on ,n futnre oo Tf slon. The speaker stayed at theliomc of Secretary and Mrs Verhurg and left on No. .10 tbls morning for Spray where he speaks tonight.
