Self Reliance.

The spirit Of self help is the root Of
all genuine growth in the individual.
and, exhibited in the lives of many. it
constitutes the true source Of national
vigor and strength. Help from With
out Is often enfeebling in it's effects,
but help from within Invariably invig-
crates. Whatever is done for men or
classes to certain extent takes away
the stimulus and necessity Of doing for
themselves, and where men are sub
