A tne boy, once asked his father if soldiers were never afraid. “Yes,” said his:father, “they .are afraid, ) but they fight just the shme.” This is what. courage really is—daring to do the things you are afraid to do. I know a boy who was afraid of the dark; afraid_of sound. afraid of imag- inary terrors that made him shudder with dread. His family had no sym- pathy .for him. and other boys ridi- suled: him: for being’a cowardy. «| He made up his mind that-ne could not bear being thought a coward any jonger. ~ It. was hard at first but he commienced to do. the things’he’espe- cially feared. Each time it wag. evs- fer. i= One.déy’ his: mother: praised: him‘ for’ tellingsthe, truth when; he could more i ve-lied. His father and sister boys gréw.to like-and respect him. ‘A! ter a time; he became a leader: among them, al houeh he had once been-a in says that when he.looks back over: those..days,-he -thinks ‘of what a-hard-earned victory it was. He says that he really was: “scared to death” all of:the time. He had been afraid: but had fought just the same. The highest kind of courage is the hardest kind to practice. It takes real courage to be happy at work while others pray; to be glad to bepoor be- cause of the opportunity to live sim- ply andy freely; to face the hard things of life’with a smile; to stand up for ‘he weak, and dare be ridiculed ior the right. We all have opportunities every day to prove this kind of cour- NOTICE TO PUBLIC The City Commission will sit as an equalization board Monday evening, June 28th, 1920.
