1T is not what we would like to do in this life,"
says Clarence E. Flynn, in THE RIVERSIDE, but
what we really get done that counts"
Heaven in it's mercy may take the will for the
deed, but human destiny in it's justice, does.
What the world of men needs is not kindly
thoughts which come to expression the good
will which never reaches the form of action. What
it needs is the helpful word and the real deed of
kindness. 1t is for the concrete service that the
hearts of men rise up in thankfulness
And, in the working out of own careers,
progress is not made by the dream which never be-
come more than dream, the purpose which
never carried to ful6ment We rise by the things
that are under our feet and push forward by the
virtue of the things really accomplished Fate, like
men, does not ask how have felt. but what we
have done.
Upon the record OF our own characters ana
personalities may get credits for feelings and
our purposes, even though they were all smothered
silence and nacton. but these things do not enter
into the record formed by the impression make
upon age. 1t is record of deed. and it stands
when the eyes of this world have ceased to any
other
"A thought feeling of aspiration, however
great or strong, is not meant to be an end within
itself. 1t is to the end of it's actual realiza
ton in action and accomplishment. heavenly
vision is given only to shed light on way per-
form heavenly deed. A great thought is given
only make possible great work. A noble feeling
is Gods way of pointing to a noble mission.
Columbus did not have a conviction that new
world lay beyond the sea for naught.
The conviction led the way to the fact and it's
important result 1t has been so in countless similar
instances.
1T is what men do that lives after them. There
is earthly side to4immortality. The deeds done
lin the flesh make epitaph WHICH cannot deceive"
