CHAPTER XIX

He will be ashamed to play "cry baby" every time he feels hurt, but will make up his mind to grin and bear it.

Working in competition with other people, and seeing that exactly the same treatment is given to those above him as to himself, takes the nonsense out of him.

He begins to see that the world is too busy to bother itself especially about him, and that, even when people look at him, they are not usually thinking of him.
