The strength of mans character is determined
to large degree by the in which he behaves ur
der stress and the motivang powers which influence
his behavior 1t does not require much skill to follow the
conventional patterns so long engaged in the
SOcaled normal pursuits of life.
When the unexpected arises however, it requires
more than customary dscpneS to enable to respond
courageousy and consuctivey Under fire it not easy
to remain poised And preparation for such responses
has to be made long before the crucial situations arise

So many of our responses and decisions today have

And there must be more than outward poise-the
effort to hide ones feeling when his inner world has

Second, one must have bigger than himself
