Three precautions should be taken to prevent the car from rolling away and caus ing an accident. First, set your handbrake firmly and be sure that it holds; second, put the car in gear—reverse if heading down, low or “drive” position if heading ,up; third, if at a curb, turn your front wheels solidly against it— if on an open road play it safe and block the downhill wheel with a stone.

W. Broad ' 4 'HEN what? What happens next? What is going to happen to me if I don’t do what you want? What does “or else—” mean? If the person who asks such questions doesn’t get answers he likes, but goes right on in his determined way, we say he is brave. If a man does what he does when everybody else is doing it, when he gets well paid for it, praised and rewarded, we do not call that brave. But when a man does what he does knowing pret- Dr. Foreman ty well that he will get hurt because he does it, we call the man braye. Two Kinds of Courago There are two kinds of bravery or courage. One we call physical courage, the other is moral cour age. The physical hero dashes into a burning building or into a swift river, to save some one else at real peril to his own life. He may refuse to disclose an important secret even though Tie is being tortured to make him reveal it. The moral hero stands up for what he knows is right even though this makes him unpopular or ridiculous in the eyes of people ^hose good will he would like to keep. We might say that physical courage is determination in spite of the prospect of bodily pain; moral courage is determination in spite of the prospect of mental or spir itual pain. Sometimes the two are combined in the same act and the same person, as with Daniel in the stories assigned for this week. Moral courage being rather more unusual than physical, let us take a look at that, especially. Ridicule Standing with the crowd never takes courage. Standing alone against the crowd always calls for courage, no matter what the crowd is carrying. Are they picking up stones? Then facing them calls for physical courage. Are they laugh ing their heads off? Then facing them calls for moral, courage. The one thing that most people are afraid of more than anything else is being laughed at. Ridicule can be as cruel as any instrument of torture. Even men with a keen sense of humor don’t like to be made fun of. Why do people who really know better, who down in their consciences know it is wrong for them to drink, drink and even get drunk all the same? The rea son is, they can’t stand being laughed at. It takes courage to stand alone against a laugh! Contempt Most men do not like to admit having made a mistake. It sounds a little like admitting one was a fool. And it has been observed that most men can more easily admit to being knaves than fools; we would almost rather be wicked than look silly. We can stand oppo sition more easily than we can stand contempt. But that is exactly what calls for moral courage in the man who stands alone. No one likes to be looked down on, no one likes to be thought of as so stupid or out-of-line that no one will re spect him. But that is what young Daniel was facing in Babylon, it is what many today have to face. To take our temperance illustra tion again: Why do many people drink alcoholic liquors against their better judgment? They can’t stand up against the crowd. Within the memory of living men there was a White House hostess who would not serve liquor at State din ners, no matter who was there. Many foreign ambassadors wrote home contemptuously about it; but she stood to her conviations. Not many have courage of that sort. Loneliness “Dare to be a Daniel, dare to stand alone!” is easy to sing, hard to do. The sheer weight of num bers overpowers people. They will climb aboard any bandwagon if it looks crowded; they will not ven ture into a heavenly chariot if they have to ride alone. It takes a little moral courage to stand up and be counted with a minority. It takes a great deal more to stand up and be counted THE minority of One. But such courage is possible. Dan iel showed it; he showed that his moral courage was matched by his physical courage. And after aU, he was not in the minority after all. God was on his side, or rather he was on God's side; and that made the difference. Many a time a good cause has been lost not by weak ness but by cowardice; but on the other hand good causes have been saved by men who believed in •their rightness so deeply that rath er than deny their faith, they would be buried alive in loneline.ss.

Why, only last Sunday you had gone fishing with his father. So now . . . you wondered why. The boy came from a good home—or did he? "Fhere was money enough, luxury enough, but it’s true that his parents sometimes left him pretty much to his own devices. There were his mother’s clubs and his father’s business, and they led an active social life. You asked yourself why . . . and in your heart you knew the answer. It lay in those gaps that had been left in his upbringing— great chinks, that should have been filled with faith, spiritual guidance, and solid en during values. Thinking about it, you made up your mind to start taking your own kids to church on Sundays without fail—no matter how good the weather was for fishing. CHUHCH rOH AU .
