A flaw here is

moral character you will in the end amount to nothing. deplorable and fatal. If this fails, all fails. You may be as brilliant as Alexander, as profound as Bacon, as versatile as Napoleon, but if you are as dissolute as the first, as mean as the second, as destitute of manly virtues as the third, though sycophants may fawn before you, to every rightly constituted man or woman you will be an object of loathing and contempt. The Greeks gloriea intellect and reserved the laurels for the sage, the Romans in decline were satisfied with muscle and threw the chaplet to the gladiator wet with animal or human gore, but this age in its churchmanship, statesmanship, literature, art, science, commerce, society and home demands character and lauds it whether it finds it in the hero who keeps a pack of savages at bay on the outskirts of civilization, in the governor of an island through whose hands sixty million dollars pass and who has to draw on his own slender resources in order to come out even when he leaves his post, or in the Salvation Army lassie who delves for diamonds in the dregs of the slum. "Great not like Caesar stained wih blood, but only great as I am good." Adopt that motto, let it be an established principle and conviction of your soul and nobody, not even yourself, need be concerned about your future here or hereafter. God will be on your side. Even Sisera will fight on your behalf.

What shall I do to be for ever known?"

"Thy duty ever."

This did full many who yet slept unknown.

Oh, never, never!

Thinkest thou perchance that they remain unknown
Whom thou know'st not?

By angel trumps in Heaven heir praise is blown.
