Formation Of Character.

We do not sufficiently appreciate the
value of pressure in the formation OF
character. "A child left TO himself
bringeth his mother to shame" says the
inspired proverb. And all of us are, in
n sense. children all onr lives through.
The best qualities which any of us pos
sess have been given to us. or have been
made effective in us, through some such
outside or inside pressure as a child
must have brought to bear ON him 70
keep him from growing to worthless
ness. or going to ruin. There is moth
ing that any Of US can do exceptionally
well that we were not somehow forced
into. or trained into. by severe pressure.
All our powers OF endurance also came
to us in that way. We learned to en-.
dure by having to endure. whether we
wanted to or not II we had been left
TO ourselves in our Misunderstanding
and training. we also should have
brought our mothers, or our mother s
children, to shame. There is nothing
we have more reason to be grateful for
than the pressure which in one way OF
another has been brought to bear upon
us for tho compacting and right hard
ening OF our characters. Why, nova
days they are actually making railroad
car wheels out of paper; pressing pulp
into. q str, myth of resistance and endur-
ance that even itself can not equal. But
for that pressure the pulp would'have
remained pulp useless, unattractivc
pulp. Because of that state the CON-
pactcd and soliditied pulp has become q
power. and obtained a mission. in the
world. MANY strong character was
only pup 10 bpgin, with. and but for q
proyidenlial pressure upon II, 1t would
have remained pulp 70 this day. And
there is still u great deal OF character
pulp which will never amount To any,
thing unless it comes under stronger
pressure than has ever been brought to
bear upon it thus far. Pressure upon
US is the last thing in the world We
ought TO think Of regretting unless,
indeed, we want to remain pulp, =

is delightful to look at this grand
