There Is an adage somewhere to the
effect that the fighter who loses his
temper gladdens his enemy. The ex-
perts of the prize ring will tell you
this is true saying. In further proof
we have the SolomOnic assurance that
he who is slow to anger is better than
the mighty. All Of which means that
anger Is weakening. and that the man
who permits his temper 10 rule him
has a destructive master.
