HIS mind is in a depraved state

HIS mind is in a depraved state who delights only in finding out and reporting the faults of his neighbors, and yet how many there are who are unconsciously engaged in this kind of business from one years end to an- other. The constant practice makes the man grow small because he only schools himself in the small things of life, and he is despised by all who know him, while on the contrary the generous forgiving man. who would much prefer to speak of the good acts and qualities of his neighbors, grows broader and wiser the longer he lives, and is loved by all who know him.
