COURAGE When we lose, to lose cheerfully; when we are heart- broken to laugh; when we see all our hopes come tum- bling down about us, to start again; when we come to the fork in the road, to take the right path, not the easier — that is Courage. To live and speak what we think is right; to stand alone against them all, if need be; to laugh at their jeers — to act thus is to know Courage. The shell-ridden battle field, the guns roar- ing, the bombs shrieking over head, the familiar class- room, the athletic field — Courage knows no distinction in its sense of action. Can we find a virtue more noble, more mighty, more pure, and more sacred? History would not exist without Courage; great men, great move- ments, great nations were, and ever shall be, built on that one great word. Never has an epochal change been wrought, a new truth tested from Nature, without Courage. But mark you; no deed is there too humble for it to grace; and when we compel ourselves to do those little duties and drudgeries which might more eas- ily be left undone or circumvented, then indeed can we lay cl aim to the king of many virtues — COURAGE.
