LINCOLN

1t seems so egotistical to try to write anything
about Abraham Lincoln, whose birthday is observed
today.
Such is Lincolns greatness that it dwarfs any
attempt at describing it. One might we'll try to de-
scribe the sun.
And yet with all his greatness, which increases as
the years go on, Lincoln must remain intensely
human. So many of the eminent in history have
sprung from the so-caled upper strata of life. They
have been born of noble lineage given every advan-
tage of their station in life and helped by the influ
ence of others.
Not with Lincoln. None could possibly have
been of humber birth None had less of the advan-
tages of life not only in childhood but throughout his
earlier years And when success did turn his way,
none stood more firmly by the principles which had
brought success than Lincoln. Not the bitterness
of thousands of his countrymen, who heaped
scorn, calumny and hatred upo nhin could force him
to stoop from the heights of justice, tolerance and
understanding upon which he moved.
