The new age. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1902-190?, 1902-10-18

asking this question-of yourself and
receiving no definite response You
nnall! rely to your own question
Wen. time will tell" Bv replvine
TO yourself in this well-worn phrase
you give your consent that the prob.
lem is too difficult for one of vonr .
callDIe TO decipher. In so doing you
are unWittingly closing your self out
OF the deal and admitting the fact
or your noninterest: also 10 that of
a happy go lucky" sort of existence /
which these hurrying times will not
admit OF. You will be pushed aside
and be compelled to drop out. You
must exert every portion of yoE
energy, both brain and body 10 keep
up with The New Age" We have
learned that We are no longer
worms of the dust" but Gods heirs
to Kingdom and We must each and
every one of us our part in working
out the grand and glorious problem
ASSIGNED to us by God (good)-that
of living.
| am writing this letter TO the Afro
American: When ever see one of
you doing some thing to belittle
your cause and to bring censure upon
the heads of your grand race. When
ever | see you demeaned and insult
ed by thase who know no better. my
heart goes out to you in love, be-
seeching you to realize your true
worth and to prove yourself true
sons of The Living God"
Though | may never clasp hands
with all of you, | have a sincere
interest in each one and | ask one
and all to join me in working out
this new problem, which The New
Age is ushering in. The problem
of living your best! We do not
consent that our part shall result
in unfulfilled requirements We ex-
pect to accomplish very much in ad-
vance of that accomplished by any
age in the past, so that the one in
| question will be so superior that
the contrast will be most pleasingly
striking. DO We not? None of us
| picture it to become an age of blood
shed and horror? No. certainly not!
But what ever it is to be, each one
| will do his or her part in the making
/ sponsbility and to come to a con
| clusion Immediately as to the part
he intends to perform.
You each have the making of your
own destiny. whether you know II
or not.
Yur own actions count up in time
and these actions are impelled by
| right or wrong thinking. There
fore | impeach you to think rightly
| Think earnestly. Think carefully anC
let each thought come forth in beau
tifll outward expression.
Look all about you; can you SEE
any thing that is not brought abOu
by Gods mediator-man? You say
Yes. the earth All living creatures
and man himself is not of his owl
handiwork." To this | reply: Doe
not man by taking thought chang
the texture of the plant? Is il no
through his understanding that fine
animals are bred red. That all thes'
patents and improvements are mad'
manifest? Then why may he no
improve his own destiny right her
and now?
We know the slothful man has no
got that which he might have at
, tanned through diligence. The sloth
: full man has only himself to sen
sure for his material conditions.
Life means energy. He who live
: greatly uses greater energy in lif
production than does the indolen
; man.
The person who thinks much an,
carefully produces more than he VIII
! thinks little and indifeTently.
Let us each decide what We woul'
like to possess and go about gettinl
: it diligently. Let us have an idea
desire and live up to IT, Let us ain
high and not be satisfied with an In
: ferior attainment. Let us acquire
{ the best. Let MS attract to us tn
! best by thinking the best and doin
I our utmost to get il.
D Let us have right ever in on
r minds as the only true road to sue
{ cess. Let us lay aside all prejudices
e all deceptions. all i'll and unjust opir
= ions of Others. Let us do our shar
c of loving without asking or eXpec
r | ing a return. Let us see TO II tina
: | we are true TO our highest conceI
Y ton of truth and by so doing We wi
s | constantly develOpe a higher and IN
p Ter appreciation Of all good.
