SINCERITY.

B. tines experiences With hu- manity. we find that sincereity is pos sibly the strangsst point In strong and effective character
 Really. few people are strictly hon est with themselves in this respect. But whs.i you do see a person thor oushly sincere in every respect and relation of life. you see a personality sooner or later admired. whether he be colleague. friend or enemy.
 A person of sincereity is a person determined and decisive. yet one who will gladly and readily change from . wrong view 10 a right when shown
 In our present world. policy is hold ing sway over our people rather than sincsr,ity. Many beginin sincerity g laudabIe pursuit Attended by sue cess. they soon find themselves en velooei in circumstances fed by policy's sweets, and before suffer dis appointment or criticism for season they permit sincereity to be counter fitted by an enemy to conscience policy.
 Now. tact is necessary and policy useful. but principle must rule policy and not policy rule principle.
 The world would progress ten times faster in right lines if its lead CTS were more sincere and unselfish. We are all "sef-ssskers" to too great an..extent. We know too much Golden Rule" to apply a little. We d unto others as they would do unto US. and try to do it first. We pray to be shown and then close our eyes lest we see. We are sorry for the person we see in need but raise our hands in- stead of showing out the coin. We love our friends and help those who help us. and rightiully please us. but the poor and unfortunate are tiring to esg vision, We do not hate them bu haven't iime 10 take up with them. We are indesd busy people.
 But who Is 10 blame1 No one sione. for we must rush CT We must be left scrrowfully behind The great throng of humanity to-day is farl, rushing to win in some race, and when we are not busy in the rush we are not at ease. Why all this1 Ii is be- cause things are done through policy. and twin CT lose" make quick CT hse quick fashion.
 In such life. all can nct win; then some must be sunk below the com forts of good. enjoyable living. Dis couraged these drink the cup of misery and pass off the stage they curse, because of its fate measured out to them. while in sincereity and steady clock working honest toil. all God $ stores of pleasure would have come quietly to them. and in crossing from this bank of life 10 the bank of death. peaceful easy bed would be theirs
 Let us try to be sincere. We can fool ourselves. but we can't fool God not always our neighbors. our world We are what we are; what we appear wdM not be counted.
