Power Is force under control. The waterfall Is wasted energy harnessed to a w;hoel It produces, mill power. Concentration Is the secret of power. Hitch your energy to sonr .1*ed purpose. To be noble is to be powerful. Negative good nWN le nopni> ? > ? ,i 11?ut juk gopuncvp; |>osttlve goodness is. Positive goodness has Dumose Energy put io purpose Is power. This world always makes way for the man of power and ho make* room for many. So does real power direct for good. The men of greatest power are they who give to the world a spirit mi 1 rather rlian a Material force. Napoleon was great because he directed his power to make himself i crowned master of men. Lincoln was great because he used his power to make men masters . >f themselves; Christ was the greatest because ITo used His power to spread the jlory of the Golden Rule over the world, teaching men that they serve themselves best whep they serve others^ 4 Ills example brings to every man, woman and child the simple essoh that in all the'world there is no sweater thliig than a soft ?ud jentle power which unceasingly works for the good of many. So it Is that they who have the most i>ower in the world are the who arc most generous in heart. Power cannot hare too gentle an expression, for Its opponent ii ilways weakness. 0 Manhood is measured by the nse made of its power. * *%j Copyright, 1923?By Richard Lloyd Jones. ** * ?
