“YOUR Im
SHOULDER Jf^LsS
Putting your shoulder to the wheel doesn’t]domuch good
unless you put some effort into the action —you cannot
bluff the wagon into moving.
If you desire to progress yourself and to aid your com
munity in progressing put your money into a bank. Your
bank account may be small, but the multiplicity of ac
counts make? the bank strong. It is just like several
men putting their shoulders to the wheels of a mired
wagon and lifting it out,
The stronger your bank is the better it can serve you
and the community.

People living near mountains are peculiarly fortunate in
having the influence of those calm and unmoved hills to still
tne tempestuousness of’human emotions.
In the morning when you look at the mountain it is almost
entiiely obscured by mists and clouds and it does not seem
possible that a mountain is really there, but as the clouds
clear away and the mountain stands forth in all its magnili
cant grandeur.
This is a good deal the way we find things in our li'e.
Some times the troubles crowd so thick about us that they
almost hide the possibility of the Supreme Being who is
guiding us ever onward to the complete consciousness of his
truth and love. But gradually these mists clear away and
we come into the glorious realization of God’s omnipotent
power.

It is rather a pity that people always connect the moon
with such cheap sentimentality for it is really worthy of much
better things.
The root of most our troubles and sorrows lies in our con
ceit. Our own trouble seems to each of us the most dire
trouble in the world and we succeed in feeling very, very
sorry for ourselves.
About this time we could profit by thinking of all the trou
ble the moon has seen and how, unmoved, it glides through
it all. It viewed the flood, the destruction of Rome, the In
dian massacres and the'World War, events that make our
own troubles seem petty and insignificant and it continues to
do its work calmly without any hint of disturbance.
Difficulties always melt away as you approach them. But
the faster you run away from them the greater they become.
We only grow by attempting things which seem a little be
yond our power and each success is like a rung in a ladder
and boosts us on towards the next.
Let the timid man take heart for we are all made of the
same stuff. And it is not so much that one man has better
luck than another that lie succeeds so well. It is far more
likely to be because he ta ces better advantage of each op
portunity as it presents itself and does not let a good one slip
by because he is afraid he may get a load he cannot carry.
We all make mistakes and the best of us have learned by
the mistakes the)' made on jobs which the worst of us were
afraid to tackle.
Childish fears and childish sorrows are more real and more
difficult to bear than the fears and sorrows of later life.
Measured by adult reasoning, the latter may seem greater at
that time. Most of us have learned in the hard school of ex
perience not to expect that life will bring]us only good things.
With a child it is different. They have had no experience
to help them over the hard places. They came upon them
unprepared. Let us remember this in dealing with child
ren. Through their fears may seem to us mere fancies they
are terrifying to a child; though their sorrows may seem
trivial a little is easily broken.
We have never yet discovered a mother who could see
hei: children start for school in the fall without a pang. We
piesume it ia one of the queer twists of mother nature that
she would rather wear herself out keeping track of them
than send them away and let someone else do it.
We all make the mistake of thinking that whatever we
give away to others is lost to us when it has been proved
times without number tha" the more we give the more we
have and ‘ceasing to give we cease to have.’
There is an old saying whose value most people believe,
has worn itself out. That is : “Every cloud has a silver lin
ing. ’ The truth of the matter is when we are looking at the
cloudy side we haven’t faith to believe in the silver Minings
that other clouds have had.
