Temptation Forms Character.

No man knows how good or how
bad he is until he is sorely tried. !,
is the fire that develops the beauty
The gun. the bridge, the ship-these
are all put to the test. not otherwise
is It with man. Temptation lends
strength to the soul that resists. and
takes power from the soul that yields
Every time We gain victory we add
to the sum total OF our manhood
Character comes by temptation. 1t is
the secret OF virtue. Temptation
takes innocence and turns It into vir
tue. Virtue is innocence under fire.
