R1913
Beware of your influence upon
others. On the surface this may
ot appear applicable to most of
us, but in truth there are few ex-
ceptions. Don’t preach one thing
:ii 1 practice another. If you al-
ien 1 Sunday school or church and
ake an active part in the services,
! spoil it next day by dispens-
I ing cuss-words at random—it dis-
gusts those who know what you
j claim to be, and lowers you in
Uheir estimation. We speak of
|no individual—the church con-
* u - many of this class, and their
aily lives cause criticism, not
I only by church members, but by
others who point to them as fitting
h| examples of consistent!?) church
| membership.
A prohibitionist who drinks, is
|in the same class. A man who
preaches prohibition, and then
tanks up, the first chance he gets,
cheapens himself in his own eyes,
as well as in the opinion of those
about him. He knows not the ex-
tent of his influence.

maintained by adverse criticism.
If our school or its teachers have
morn faults than their due quota,
kindly say so to us or to the school
board, No amount of talking,
about us will help. By counsel-
ing together, we may correct the
faults and minimize the bad re-
