lie Is not remarkably endowed intellect.
uaily nor is he pushed by ambition, He
mas a faculty for doing thIngs and is more
interested ID the good resulting to the

tlty OF the surroundings, it slnks to the
level of cold for mality and does not the

are active every day in every ones life are
what the clergy man must deal with, so
that when one enters a church he brings
his animation with him and perceives the
relation OF work in church with the daily
experiences which have become part of
his life. There is warmth in teaching
which recognizes the individual as be is
and whose purpose it is to build from che
material he furnishes. There can be no
church successful, RS there can be no
school-whlch issues the mandate "strive
TO be good" without taking an inventory
OF what there is In the individual which |
can be used to attain this end, and then
working upon that material 10 the very
form in which it exists. Every mans |
conception of good has the limitations |
imposed by his own character, II we |
wish to inspire him to higher purpose it
must be through the medium OF broaden |
ing his character. Clergymen cannot be !
successful unless they study the people |
and work upon them as they find them.
