il ' S - 1 is UNO Excellence Without Labor Cuifroizn Howe C., , HE foundation and underlying fundamentals of all that pertains ' I to things excellent, is labor. You cannot realize great and noble ,, ambitions without the expenditure ot some energy in one form or another. Heights by great men reached and kept, W'ere not attained by sudden Bight But they, while their companions slept, Wvere loiling upward in the night. Our aims which are usually set high, like Pikes Peak, cannot be sur- mounted without a great deal ol- exertion. Take for instance the wonderful and magniticent cathedrals of Europe which display in all their beauty and structure the handiwork of masters of art and building-the result of gen- erations, yes, even centuries of painstaking eiiiort and toil. But there is another Cathedral, a temple which exceeds by far in come plexity and structure any edihce that man can produce, for it is the temple of the Holy Ghost. As the architect draws the plan for his stately palace, as the artist sketches the outlines of his masterpiece, as the ship builder lays down the lines for his colossal ship, so God has the most excellent plans for each human soul. Yes, for every dewdrop that glistens in the morning sun, for every beam of light that gleams across the universe, God has a purpose and a plan. Then how much more should we realize the importance of the place that is ours to lill? llut only as we are co-laborers with Christ jesus our to-1,1 can we ever hope to attain the great and beautiful. As we are free, moral agents it remains for us through the power of will to choose whether or not we shall allow our costly possessions to de- teriorate and go down in ruin or strive to reach the higher and nobler levels. Note how the ancient Greeks surpassed any other race or people through the strength and beauty of their physique. ldow was that remarkable syms metry and perfection brought to such a high standard if it were not through the laborious exercise that they were subject to in order to have the dis- tinction and honor of excelling their opponents at the great Qlympian games? Our actions, our character, the rank We hold in social life, are deter- mined and governed by thought-the product of the mind. Great minds are always possessed by great men. The mind like the body can Waste away with inactivity and only through labor and the exercise of its powers may it reach perfection. lt is said, Napoleon wrestled many a night through with the most perplexing and preponderons problems.

Fifi?-ee shi the modern world, has spent many a night perfecting, with intense con- centration of mind, his production in order that his wisdom might enlighten the world. The yery life that we enjoy, the spirit, the breath of God in us. con- stitutes our soul. For without the soul. the spirit-that spark of life in us-We are nothing more than clay. Our feeble efforts to do gonrl and be holy and acceptable before our Heavenly Father are made stronger :tnfl more firm through exercise. Xl'e are in :t race and no person feeble in spirit can ever hope to win. We have an adversary with which tu contend. an-l a terrible foe he is. Sometimes it takes all the strength and power til' will we have to pass the test and stand firmly upon the rock of hlesus. lf We do not exercise our faith, our spiritual power, as we do our mind and body we shall not reach the mark-that great mark of the hope that is in us, the glory and splendor of life eternal. According ten our work so shall our reward he, for without labor we cannot hope to olitain the excellence of the heavenly kingdom and the earth made new.
