No. 2-Gratitude
JOHN NJ. ANDERSON

The majority of the people are
too slow in expressing gratitude
for favors received. They are
willing to accept benefits as if
they had a right to them, and then
they Immediately forget the Civ
er. Ingratitude is certainly not
a product of the better side of our
nature and should not be allowed
to develop in our characters. 1t
is one Of the worst of faulte-a
cloud without any silver lining.
And, if gratitude is due from man
to man for kindnesses received,
how much more from man to his
Maker. Every blessing we have
is from the hand of God. Our
hearts should be forever thankful
to our benefactors, for then we
can be assured that our lives are
