ular A person can make himself unpop
ular very easy. Is there anything small
or grand in being unp"pulary A certain
minerster called the members Of the NJ E
church hypocrites because they claimed
to have IA union S. School and used NJ. E.
literature and suddenly became unpopu-
lar
\ Sunday School Superintendent of
Wendall township became very un-
popular because he displaced an
Assistant Superintendent who play
eI base ball on Sunday instead Of attend
ing s. School. A gentleman in George
town made himself very unpopular be-
Cause he proposed to stand by The deci-
In of his church in the matter Of locating
a church.
a few evenings ago We were in Rex
ford and a lady and gentleman made them
selves unpopular bcrause they voted to
stand by the constitution that the society
had adopted.
Do not try to be too popular if you have
any worthy qualities people will find
item out and in the long run merit will
win. For he who buys friends will not
keep them long. A certain Co. .fficial said
he had to give money to all churches 10
be ponular so they would vote for him
for second term. But all popular pr
sons are not hypocritical yet he that fol-
loweth the even tenor of life doing what
he believes right popular or unpopular
will be better off than his popular brother
who is 80 graciously popular for time
then in some ungarded moment steps on
some pet poodles tail and becomes sud
denly unpopular.
But l had better stop or some popular
Bell sheep will put popular bump on my
unpopular head. CIV. ID.
