Builders. Speaks on Methods of Attaining Success.
Guest of Rev. J. C. Rowan While Here.
"Gee. Ain't It Urea) to He n Boss."
was Ihe subject of a line address de
livered in Central Graded School hero
Mom lay night .y John It. Todd, of
Tod Holier! son Todd, builders, of Now
York City. Mr. Todd spoke here un
der the auspices of the Kotary and Ki
wanis Clubs, and while here was the
guest of Rev. Jesse C. Rowan, pastor
of the First Presbyterian Church. He
was accompanied to Concord hv Mrs.
Todd, nml they enni here from Cam
den. S. ('.. where they spent several
weeks. 1
Mr. Todd is recognized as one oi
the greatest civic builders in the Cull
ed Slap's and he devoted his line ad
dress to an outline of the .nullities ami
char.'K tcrisiics which a young man
needs if he would become a success
iu the business world. The address
was prepared especially for tiniler
gritduates. to 'he deliverer in one of the
great universities, lajjv,as all men are
lull Tims grown ui. TTr, Todd express
ed the hope that his address would he
of interest to all. It is the duly of ev
eryone, he pointed out. to lie interest
ed in tlie youth of today, for tomor
row. they are the men who control
things.
Mr. Todd devoted the greater part
of his address to a discussion of the
characteristics thai make success, but
be also touched on college life and
some of the apparent evils of present
college courses. He showed tin insight
into college conditions thai was as
keen as hi touch upon things pertain
ing to the business world, in which he
has been n marked success.
The speaker declared ti young man
should early choose his vocation. A
voting man al 2.1 should be on the road
to success, lor at HI, niter ! slum
years, he will have reached Ihe point
where he will be either a success or
failure. The die is cast by the time a
mail reaches forty, and he declared he
knew of no instance in which a man
who was a failure ut 40. made good
lifter that. If a young man is on th;'
right road al -Id. he has many years of
success ahead of him, but if at that
age he is still chasing the rainbow, he
is almost certain to be a failure.
Making mosey is not the biggest
thing in life, Mr. Todd said, but he
discussed success in a material way
onlv because his subject dwelt with it.
he added.
The speaker told of a young man
who started without funds or friends.
He worked from morning until night,
saved a part of his earnings, and kepi
eternally at the Job. Later success
came, he was able to spend several
months of each year in Europe, or
Florida, or some other place. He
could give to his church, to missionar
