90 He who waits to do a great deal Of good at
once, will never do anything" Life is made up of
little things. 1t is but en- age that occasion
is offered for doing a great deed True greatness
consists in being great in little things. How are
railroads built? BY shovel Of dirt after another
not one shovel at time. Thus, drops make the
ocean. Hence, we should be willing TO do a little
good at time, and never wait to do great deal
OF good at once" If we would do much good in
the world, must be willing TO do good in little
thlngs-little acts one after the other, speaking
word here, giving tract there, and setting good
example all the time; must do the first thing we
can, and the next, and then the next, and so keep
On doing good This is the way to accomplish any
thing. Thus only shall we do all the g0ed in our
power
