there Is not that courage upon which TO
base 1t. so in our civil life. although We
need that the average man. in private life,
that the average public servant shall have
far more than honesty yet all other quail
ties go for nothing or for worse than moth
ing unless honesty underl:es them-honesty
In public life and honesty in private life:
not only the honesty that keeps its skirts
technically clear, but the honesty that is
Such according to the spirit as we'll as the
letter of the law: the honesty that is ag-
sIessive. the honesty that not merely de-
piores corruption-it is easy enough to de-
piore corruption-but that wars against il
and tramples 1t under foot
Appeals for Honesty.
I ask for that type of honesty T ask
for militant honesty. for the honesty Of
the Kind that makes those who have it dis
contented with themselves as long as they
have failed to do everything that in them
lies to stamp out dishonesty wherever it
can be found-in high place or in low And
let US not fatter ourselves. we who live in
countries where the people rule that 1t is
possible ultimately for the people to cast
upon any but themselves the responsible
ties for the shape the government and the
social and political life Of the community
assumes.
4 ask, then, that our people feel quick
ened within them the burning indignation
against wrong in every shape which shall
take effect in condemnation, especially con-
ceInTdtion OF tnat wrong, whether found
in private or in public life at the moment
l am asking only for condemnation of
wrong in its crudeSt form, just as l made
the comparison just now, when I asked
that soldier shall have courage. / ask
what we have right to demand of every
man who wears the uniform.
1t is not so much a credit to him to
have 1t as it is shame unutterable to him
If he lacks it. So when ask for honesty l
ask for something which We have a right
to demand. not as emitting the possessor
to praise, but as warranting the easiest
condemnation possible if he lacks it. Sure
ly, in every movement for the betterment
of our Hfe-our life socially in the truest
and deepest sense: our life political--we
have a special right to ask not merely sup
port, but leadership from those of the
church. We ask that you here to whom
much has been given will remember that
from you rightly much will be expected in
return.
For all of US here the lines have been
cast In plea sant places. Each of us has
been given one talent. five, ten and each OF
US is in honor bound to use that talent or
those talents Alright, and to show that at
the end that he is entitled to the praise as
having done we'll as a faithful servant.
II greet you this afternoon. and am glad
to see you here, and l trust and believe
that after this service each and every one
of YOU will go home feeling he or she has
been warranted In coming here by the way
in which he or she, after going home. takes
up with fresh heart, with fresh courage
and with fresh and higher purpose the bur
den of life s that burden has been given to
hin. or to her to carry.
