Perseverance will be required. inordcr tomake a start and to keep the fund
going. But be sure of one thing. You are never at a standstill financially.
If you are not advancing and increasing in wealth each day. you are most
surely going behind. Science has proved that there can be no such thing as
a state of absolute rest. Things must go forward. or they must go back-
ward. One way or another they must move. Therefore. do not deceive
yourself longer: but start an account today. and add to it regularly.
