Some Have Eyes
and See Not
Consider the Blind Man. See him grope his way
along the street. The tap. tap. tap, of his cane is
the only guide he lias as to the direction in which
he is going.
He has no sense of color. His home could be paint
ed a brilliant red or black and it would cause him
no worry, or if not painted at all. it would make no
difference to him.
At best the life of the blind man is hard. But he is
far better off than the man who HAS EYES and
SEES NOT.
That building of yours is rapidly "going d • u
hill.” The paint is peeling off, can he rubbed if
with the hand, and the elements are getting in tin i:
deadly work.
Brush the SCALES from your eyes and get busy.
