''! ,'. m ; ' i ) Faith In The ' Things Money ; 1 ' CannoVBuy. , In this day when the world is itifrt-dP over: different things and men are doubting iVirtue exists and we hear so much , of Wrong done and doing; we won . der sometimes ' what ' will i solv the problem.' : Cynics and . pessi mists say the world is going to the dogs and that nothing can save the world. They down the church and say it has run its day. However we must say as our opinion that .these who so fay are all wrong-: and that we have forgotten some .' of , the things that we must have in ord er to make it possible, for the ' world to come into its own. There are certain things that are fundamental and we must have ' faith in these and see" that we ourselves have them If 'these things, God given, : are in the world and they are, then there is hope. ' However you and : I must have them. One of the things that is fundamental is Justice. There is justice in - the world. Every man sooner or later gets what id coming to him. Good work wins out because of - justice are slipshod, work is put aside because it is slipshod, Mens judgments are' just and this will prevail. -V Another one; of the f virtues is that 1n mans " heart he naturally honest. If we ex pect honesty in men we will find Jt, subject to the fact that you and I are honest, we may trust a thief 1f ha knows we are put ting faith in him. We, don't find it because we are not expecting it. Another is the quality of sin cerity. Meanness will meet with meanness and flippancy will meet f tppancy and straightforward r as will get a square deal every tijie. If the man sees that we are sincere he . will respond to that. : We are suspicious and that creates suspicion and we throw a smoke screen ever and loose sin cerity. Another that we find is usefullneas. " Hardly a person but what his or her unselfishness. Almost every one is willing to sacrifice for others if they see that that Quality is in the other. Every one knows of instances of disinterested unselfishness. If we have it in us it will be shown us always t . ' .. Another that we should have fajth in is friendship. Brutal as , a friend is a saying that we all have heard. That friend has our interest at heart and he shows that friendliness. Be a friend to " every one and every one . will be ' your friend. There ure others of these but to mention these is enough, " We find what we go -after. Money can not buy these We may be rich but we oannot rjet them by purchase. , Justice tought becomes, injustice Hon czt for money begets dishonesty. Sincerity for money is false.' Un- E.
