would do we'll to heed the fact.
Invariably those who fail lay the blame
on some one else, or on "the circum-

world SO far excuses those who fail "be-
cause of the circumstances" as to wish to
continue to employ them. The church
does not want failures in its employ, no
more than the business world does; and
the man who as a pastor cannot, IN due

is pastor for whom the church has no
use. and to whom it must and will soon

The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1895-09-19

A point capable of local application
was made recently by Theodore Roose-
welt in a speech at Buffalo, when he
said: every policeman continually
has to face. as n matter of business.
as a matter Of ordinary. everyday
duty. certain risks and certain dangers.
In addition to that he now and then
has to face very serious dangers, very
serious risks, and these should be borne
in mind by the critics of every police
force. While the unfaithful policeman,
the corrupt policeman. deserves to re-
ceive the merciless condemnation Of
good citizens, yet all good citizens
should be equally prompt to recognize
that the honest and fearless member
of the force Is entitled to the highest
respect and to every consideration
from all decent citizens who wish 10
see order preserved and life and prop
erty protected. Remember that"
There Is widespread tendency
among people of all walks and call
ings in life to bellttle the work Of
the average city policeman. To see
"copper" strolllng along in his fine
uniform. swinging his club. appears to
most persons the personiflcation Of
pampered Incidence and superfiuous-
ness. But this is only one side of
picture. The other side may be viewed
only in emergencies. when the officers
nerve and strength are all that stand
between the private citizen and vio-
lence or loss. In these critical mo-
ments, the policeman who keeps his
wits about him and Is alive to his duty
becomes OF incalculable value to the
community. and may, in single act
OF valor, fairly earn his whole years
salary.
