THE MAN WHO TALKS

Tor her criminal ruthless policy; and |
there are some people disposed to |
yield to a foe who herself las shown |
no regret for her sacriligious and I'M
namable offcnses. Since German ruth |
lessness has had no equal SINCE the
world has pretended to be civilized
this exhibit of heartlessness and god
| lessness should not be allowed to pass
! unpublished, especially when such a
sin OF omission VII be interpreted
by the foe to be a sign OF fear instead
of an evidence OF mercy and good will.
| Softenlng toward the Christian nation
| which invoked the aid Of the mosIem
| world to make an end of Christian
rulers will be a surrender to the foe.
| One thing we should bear in mind
is that no one, no matter how near and
/ dear they may be to Us. will live as
We want there to. because they were
designed to live as they wait to Our
relation to them is one Of influence not
| one of absolute authority We m ght
have a care lest our anxiety turns good
advice into Raging, and our solicitude
| into something resembling NEEDLE
someness or tyranny. There is no.
where that 96ore patience, skill and
sweetness are required than in help
ing others to help themselves. Your
| mind, your heart. your perception or
your judgment is not theirs They are
/ not fools because they VIII not do as
you wish they woult:- they might
prove to be fools if they Cid Your
| idea and mina of right living arc only
one of a million right wrys to live
! perhaps. We haven't got it alive
never shall have. Our push and our
advice is less needed than our good
example.
Nstieb T.
| thing in life any of US have to do?
1t is to honor the convictions of our
hearts and TO make our neighbors
aware that we live up to our profess
sions. You know hypocrisy Ike char
lty has to begin at home, A solemn
vow made to ourselves is as binding
upon upon Us as the most solemn
pledges we make to any nne else; and
we do not strive to honor half of these
promises. No one can cheat US as we
can cheat ourselves. The greatest
crook beats himself mora than he can
possibly beat any one else. Our very
sins and misdeeds react upon us. We
slop around III life and pr-valely think
we are a good example: hut if we
mention the fact to any one it makes
| them laugh. What seems so serious
to Us seems humorous - them! Why
>, Because they see us as we be. not as
We think We Re. If we paid strict at
tention to this we shoGid not have
so much time to think Of Ire conduct
: of others. We must be true!
You may have happened TO have no
ticed how natural it is for ROYALTY to
refer to the working class as swine
You can see that the people who
: refer to their brethren as swine
: must themselves be beasts. There is

g fellowmen which is marked by pa
tience and service. Thu most roya
soul we know of began life as a car
penter and Ended it Condemned OF

we have met in life have worn home
spun and had hard hut OPEN hand:
and soft hearts. Talk about royalty
