The sermon considered, first, what 't | costs to be good- to ourselves and to soclety; second, what it costs to be bad to ourselves and to society. Things that are of value we pay for and their vglue is aiways gauged by what we pay) The man who throws but lit- tle personality into his life work gets little out of it. If we have any of the bigger things in life, we must beain at_the bottom—we must dedicate our- selves to the larger service.
