The Pat on the Back.

With some people it's a question
whether pat On the back is not worse
than a kick on the shinS. Which
amounts to saying that it doesn't pay
to praise people when they don't know
how to take it, for it may do them more
harm than good.
Fortunately not all folks are that
way, but there are plenty Of EN- who
are spoiled by we'll meant praise. A
medal on the breast makes them chesty
and the laurel on the brow gives them
the swelled head
There are two sides to praiSe-the
past and the future. When people have
done well, or are getting there, it's
natural and usually wholesome to give
them hand and send them an ap-
plause card. We are proud of them
and are grateful to them for their
past performances. That's the idea of
praise.
The expected result of the pat on
the back Is to have the hero go on
ward. He's supposed to do all the better
in the future. Praise is his pay in ad-
vance. And if he's a one hundred
per center. he'll take the hint and &C
Cept the pat as a push.
Now I'm optimistic enough to be-
lieve that praise works conStructvcly
with the average run of individuals.
and I'm talking only about the kind
of people who miss the point in the
pat on the back.
Such slackers, for that's what they
are, act like dogs, for they think the
pat on the back is a sign to lie down,
and they certainly do lie down on the
job. They are the people who would
profit better by the kick on the shinS
referred to.
A good pat on the back is supposed
to stay there, but too often it goes
to the head. Just as often it paralyzes
the individuals efforts and makes him
useless for the time being. He thinks
he'll let we'll enough alone.
Praise is often test of personality
and criterion of character When a
person has mettle, praise will act as
spur If he has eyes to see, it will
open up to his vision new heights for
further ambition. For Just praise els
tribute to the ideal Of what the person
Should be
When, therefore, a strong character
is properly praised. it is likely to urge
the individual to FIJI cut the noble out
line which the praise has marked for
him. But in many cases silent approval
Is the only thing that will work.
If your boss praises you, don't come
IN late the next dav or spend valuable
time loafing on the job Still less, don't
try to touch him for a raise, but just
wait and see whether the laurel wreatN
doesn't bear few berries for you as
well as leaves
We're all more or less sensitive and
Some of US are touchy to praise. SO
much SO that we can't stand it as well
e5 other peonle endure blame. Take all
the praise that comes your way, but
don't think that a little wreath on the
brow is meant for a high hat

of the stones from a screen recently re-
moved from behind the high altar in
the cathedral. This screen had been
taken from stones originally IN tower
which fell after standing more than 100
years. 1t will be used in the proposed
chapel of St. Thomas Church whenever
the same is built.
Suggests Inscription.
Bishop Knight, on giving the stone,
suggested the following inscription for
the brass tablet to be erected beside the
stone when placed in the chapel:
This stone formed part of the Ethel
bert Tower in the Norman Abbey
Church of the Monastery of st. Angus
tine, Canterbury. In the nineteenth
century it was used in the stone screen
behind the high altar of the cathedral.
On the removal of the screen it was
returned to st. AuguStine'S College by
the dean and chapter of the cathedral
and is now sent by the college to st.
Thomas Church in Washington as
token of unity in Christ
At a recent meeting the vestry ac-
cepted this gift with many thanks and
much appreciation as also the suggested
inscription to be placed on a brass
tablet beside it. Maj. Ennalls Wagga-
man offered to provide the brass at his
own cost and charges, which offer the
vestry accepted.
