Be Of Good Cheer, I

Life Isn't All Beer And Skittles.

Old Timidity Has Disappeared, And Is Replaced By Silent, Quaint Fun, With Which His Face Twinkles All Over, As He Listens.

He Never Wants Anything But What's Right And Fair; Only When You Come To Settle What's Right And Fair, It's Everything That He Wants And Nothing That You Want. And That's His Idea Of A Compromise.

We All Have To Learn, In One Way Or Another, That Neither Men Nor Boys Get Second Chances In This World. We All Get New Chances To The End Of Our Lives, But Not Second Chances In The Same Set Of Circumstances; And The Great Difference Between One Person And Another Is How He Takes Hold And Uses His First Chance, And How He Takes His Fall If It Is Scored Against Him.

Christ's Whole Life On Earth Was The Assertion And Example Of True Manliness — The Setting Forth In Living Act And Word What Man Is Meant To Be, And How He Should Carry Himself In This World Of God — One Long Campaign In Which The Temptation Stands Out As The First Great Battle And Victory.
