"Wake Up ! We're Rich!"

 

Wolves were picking off the livestock of ranchers at an alarming rate, so the state offered a bounty of $5,000 for every wolf killed.  Two good ol' down home country boys, Jethro and his friend Zach, decided to go into the wolf hunting business.

  

They had been out hunting wolves all day and into the night, and made camp way up in the mountains near a beautiful little stream.  About four o'clock the next morning, Jethro woke up to see their camp surrounded by thirty or forty wolves.  In the light of the dying campfire, he could see the blood-lust in their eyes, and the white of their exposed, razor-sharp teeth.  He could also see that they were about ready to spring.  "Hey, Zach," he whispered.  "Wake up! We're Rich!"  Men with a vision see problems as possibilities.

   

A blind man's world is bounded by the limits of his touch; an ignorant man's world by the limits of his knowledge; a great man's world by the limits of his vision (E. Paul Hovey/1908-).
