The Need of Convictions

Side with truth before 1t is popular
to side with 1t. Side with God and
humanity and human hope just as
fast rs you can see what is best for
humanity, what promises the most
for human hope. BE fully pers,,ad-
ed in your own mind. Do not drift.
1t liz not worthy of man to drift. It
is not worthy OF u man to be govern
ed merely by social considerations,
to go to church because he thinks IL
will help him in business way,
because 1t opens some doors TO homes
of wealth and affuence that he might
not otherwise find 1t easy to enter. A
man ought to have conviction.
And what is IL conviction? A con-
victiOn is something of which you
have been become convicted. It
means little Thought, u little study,
going over the ground and making up
your mind. Most people have only
opinions, notions, Impressions, i'm
pulses. The number of people who
have convictions is comparatively
