Brain Leaks.

Brave men are always afraid to do
wrong
Determination never shakes hands
with doubt.
Some men who think they are frank
are only rude.
You cannot get close to God by draw
ing apart from your neighbor
History is often only tradition accept
ed because of universal credulity.
Wouldn't you rather associate with
man who is narrow-minded but sincere
than to associate with man so Liberal
minded that he has no convictions at
all?''
Our idea of a mean man is the one
who would delight in telling a child the
facts about Santa Claus.
We are very apt to dub man crank
if he refuses to give up his opinions and
accept our own.
You cannot catch the same rat twice
in the same trap, but you can a man.
This is no compliment to the man.
The strong man avoids temptation;
the weak man fiirts with it it to prove
that he can withstand it-and fails,
Men often achieve fame because they
care very little about it and do not al
low thoughts of it to take up their time.
The heroes who die for their country
are not entitled to, any more credit than
the heroes who live for their country.
Somehow or other we always feel
chilled when salaried choir stands up
to slug the invitation hymn after good
sermon.
When we hear church member COM
planning of something the preacher
said we are moved to believe that the
preacher is doing some good.
There is no more reason why boy
should sow wild cast than that a girl
should put in crop of the same grain.
