labor for their improvement, and most
Of all to God the giver Of all gifts.
This obligation should lead them tc
cultivate an unselfishness In every
direction andto exercise a genuinglove
for everything, from the tiny sparrow
that chirps, to the all wise Father
who watches owe all.
Honesty, said he, is to character
what gold is to commerce. 1t goes
deeper, too, than mere truth telling-or
frankness, or business trust-worthi-
ness. 1t has a deeper meaning than
mere outward conduct. 1t is a princi-
pal In character and lies back of and
beyond, and is over and above, out
ward rule. Love this principle of hon.
esty as a mother loves a child. Apply
1t to yourself and to your knowledge
getting.
Industry, this, too, is a study. Peo-
pie do not fall into the habit of dill.
gence, the few who are willing to be
industrious go to the front.
No occasion, said the speaker, is
present calling for idleness. Nothing
shows more the fact that one is enter
ing the realm Of womanhood than the
industry which teaches one to concen-
trate the mind on the matter needing
attention and mastering it.
Newton, Carlyle, Hume, Harvey,
and others were cited as examples Of
the genius of work, the world.crowned
knights of labor. The address was
thoroughly prepared, was fine in tone,
sane and sensible. 1t was full of pith,
impulse and wit. Scant Justice Is
done it in this imperfect sketch.
