PROVE YOUR COURAGE

Fear is a goblin. Goblins are un-
pleasant neighbors, dangerous friends
and distastrous companions.
The particularly healthy specimen
of the species has fastened his fangs
in many a heart when a bit of cour-
age would have meant success.
Closely akin to Fear and scarcely
less venomous are the dragons Dread
and Cowardice. They are are offspring
of Fear. Throttle the parent sin and
the spawn will share it's death
struggle.
Fear is condition of mind no more
complicated to understanding than de-
spondency, joy, anger and triumph.
To conquer it, cultivate its opposite.
Believe in your moral and physical
courage. Who is there of US that has
not romanced with themselves as hero
or heroine of thrilling rescues, hair
breadth escapes, grim encounters in
which single handed, victory was
achieved against tremendous odds?
What you can think-that you can
do.
