There is no use denying it, a man
who tries to do his best in the stem
bottles of life has his hands full,
even when the conditions are favor
able. But it does not require so very'
much manhood to keep steadily press

sunshine and flowers and singing

for a man to sing as he carries the

when the birds cease thier

on with the burden that each mo

great many dark, dreary days! What
a history is being written in human
lives each day! That man you met
today seemed hardly willing to speak
to you kindly, "Good Morning!” He
had a f loud upon his face and his lips
were drawn down closely together.
Do not judge him harshly. You know
nothing of his heavy burden. There
may be a sick wife or child at home;
there may be business losses of which
you never dreamed; some good true
friend may have passed aw'ay. The
shadows are falling across his path-
way, although you do not see them.

strength of a high resolve, perhaps,
and but for just this high-souled
courage would long since have sat
down by the wayside to perish. Let
us remember that it does not take
much of a man to be brave when no
danger is nigh. After all, the bravest
man is that one who bends his back
to the load and patiently, silently,

totally deaf, yet he has “borne hi*
sufferings patiently, having his wartta
faithfully ministered to by his daugh
ters, with a devotion seldom excelled.
He is survived by Prof. E. Bohua
