O wad some power the giftie gi'e os
To see oursers as ifhers see ns."



Those whose lives are spent in nsefolness to them-
selves, to their fiunilies and to their f ellowmen, will
hardly object to seeing themselves as others see
them; but those whose lives are spent in a manner
condemned by their own conscience and by the pub-
lic, will not likely vrish to see themselves as others
see them. Every sane person should wish his con-
duct to be such that lAen seen and judged by all
others competent to judge between right and wrong
conduct, it will be reflected back to him in an approv-
ing manner. It is the spirit of wishing to see our-
selves as others see us, that has in all ages and
among all peoples, developed the hero who willingly
and courageously endured extraordinary dangers
and hardships for the purpose of accomplishing some
great benefaction for his f ellowmen. In all ages and
nations those who have unselfishly performed great
feats for the benefit of the public, have received
hearty applause of all who felt a sincere interest in
the happiness and well being of their fellowmen.
