SAPULPA, OKLA.

Dear editor and the Herald's many
readers: Thinking how we all were
raised back there to know each 9th
er at sight better than by reputation
is quite different to establishing your,
self among strangers, and my move
to this grand and glorious Oklahoma
country has brought to my memory a
little speech l made when | first
thought / was a man: Subject
Character and Reputation" real
ize more fully now the contrast of
the two. Character is within our
own hands OF selves; reputation in
the minds and hands of others. Char
acter, what one is; reputation, what
one Is taken to be. We can have a
pure character with false reputa,
tion, but we cannot be a false char
actr with a clean reputation. Our
character is just what we make our
selves; reputation just what we are
in the eyes of others. Character car
ries fraternity, love and truth, and
planted in the heart in the days Of
youth. Character is power and wheel
for success; reputation is strength
and assistance.
Now, here to the boys: Have yo.'
planted your best seeds for chara :
ter? If not, get busy, make up your
mind, select close, with all preca1-
tion, for the crop will result with the
fruits in the sight of others, for the
reputation of your life.
1t has been my high aim to live a
lift not to be ashamed of and l hone
to carry the same spirit the rest Of
my days. 1t was very embarrassing
to me here among strangers to set
UP anew, but time brought around
many new acquaintances to the same
character with broader reputation,
and l appreciate my friends wherev-
er am at.
l hold a good job with a strong
company here and / hope all of nv
friends there will think of me in a
Santa Claus way and send me some
thing Christmas. nways appreciate
hearing from old acquaintances. A
small bag of chestnuts would be nice
for this Oklahoma Christmas, SO my
boys tell me. We are all we'll again.
