Courage stands Erect and Think,

Bob Ingersoll is fully able to take
care Of himself 10 a controversy, even
0bep il becomes personal and acrimoni-
an. but he and his friends will appreci-
ate good point, even when it is made
AGAINST himself. SO We give this, which
i part of sermon preached by Rev
Robertson, of Sioux Falls, in Cedar Ra-
pils last Sunday: "a leading talkcr-I
win not say thinker-of tue day has
said Fear falls to the earth and prays;
courage stands erect aud thinks This
is marvellous rhetoric, but let us take an
illustration: We have just been celebrat-
ing the centennial Of Washington's in
aupuratioa. Let US 20 back hundred
years. A struggle is going on; fierce
war is being wuged. 1t is winter. and
| am at Valley Forge. feel the chill

king. | see the continental soldiery
but half clothed and hungry for want Of
food; | ask for the commander of the
armies of the little nation struggling for
freedom. lie is not at his headquarters?
Is be among the officers? do not find
him there. lie must be down talking
with the privates but do not end him
there. lie is not at the picket line -
But yonder | hear voice in the forest
alone. Behold, man prays. He
prays that the great God of nature and
of The universe will give victory to the
American arms. lie prays fervenIly,
aud deep peace soon pervades his soul.
1t is George Washington, leader of the
American armies Fear falls to the
earth and prays.' Was George Wash
ington a coward? Did he ever show an
act of cowardice in his long career?
But history has swept the years into
the past, and three. quarters of "a century
later | see another conflict Another
warfare is upon the land. This leading
talker has enlisted and has been made a
colonel. A battle engages him and he
is captured and then soon exchanged -
Again he goes to the front and a battle
is anticipated again. Courage stands
erect and thinks 1t is the eve of battle
and he thinks. Home is safer than the
battlefield. Home is more peaceful
and delightful than the pursuits of war
lie stands erect and thinks, and on the
eve of battle surrenders his commission
and goes home. Which picture, my
friends, do you most admire; what BOW
DO you think of Courage sanding erect
and thinking?'
