DR.. c. r. Dixon of Haskell institute
occupied the chapel time on Tuesday
morning, using st. Luke IA: 1920 as his
text He spoke on the subject of excuses
Excuse is the acknowledgement OF
fault committed. One of the hardest
things we have to conquer is to be true
TO ourselves and true to God. We are as
one people making an excuse. Not only
TO our relation to God, but also to each
other. do we need good manners which
come from right thoughts. But the way
for me to right a wrong is TO go 10 the
one offended and say forgive me- From
the first breath you begin to live just as
much as you are living now. You are IN
life lust as much alive today as you will
be in three or four or five years. The
habits Of today will be the habits OF to-
morrow The things that you do, the
things that you achieve along the line OF
actual skill will be the things of actual
use TO you
