few interesting highhghts. An
interesting comparison was made
in which the stretch of hazardous

as the Proving Ground" of we'll

likened to this Proving Ground of
Life" for human beings. Auto
mobiles are put through rigorous
tests so that the slightest defect
can be detected and remedied. HUI
man beings, too, are constantly
being tested but fail to profit by
their mistakes or remedy their de-
fects. So far, only time and years
of experience have been able to i'm
prove the sluggish minds of man.

ure to remedy his weaknesses can
most always be traced to idleness
or jealously. How often people
