Our character should be builded as a
temple. with precious stones. with truth
FOR its foundation. II must be woven all
around with the pure gold Of kindness.
these are the Jewels that are more pre-
ciCus than crowns and costly stones. and
each one Of us may build up a good and
true character. which Is the most precious
thing We can have. 7 do not think there
ever was so good a queen as our Queen
Victoria She had a beautiful gold crown
and beautiful castles and palaces 70 live
in. but these are not the things she val
ued most. Best Of all, she had all those
! lovely Jewels In her character that have
| been speaking about. with truth for the
! foundation. Why did We love her 50
much? Not because she was a queen. but
| because she was good and true and kind.
and these Jewels make up the something
/ that we call character. There was a story
once telling Of man who spent al his
4 time raking Up rubbish or the floor 20
/ find gold and other things and never once
/ looking up. but all the time there was an
angel standing behind him with a beauti-
I IN, crown IN her hand which she wanted
/ the man 10 have. but he never saw IL.
/ That is Ike the people who think OF moth
| ing but self instead OF looking I'D and
/ thinking OF the beautiful stones that built
/ up the temple. which is such a good thins
/ 10 have. just as the crown was. which the
man did not see Let Us look Up and see
/ all that is beautiful and good so we may
( become ike God. who made al these
