The meanest and most despicable
character in any community is the man
who is envious of another's prosperity
and is always heard speaking in a con-

fellow citizens.
We may assume different attitudes
towards the evils that exist in every
community, We may encourage them,
which none but the lowsminded will do.
We may be Indifferent to them, which
means selfishness, and we may be
afraid to withstand them, which means
cowardiee. But the only true way is to
do our utmost wisely and with single
ness Of purpose to destroy them.
