We all enjoy, yes, per haps have a deep longing for a Utile praise and appreciation. We can rarely do our best in any enterprise without a little praise. How a heartening word spurs us on. Appreciation and encouragement have often spelled the difference between success and failure, happiness and sadness. Some one asked Charles Kingsley, one day, the secret of his success. He re plied, "I had a friend who be lieved in me." Encouragement is oxygen to the soul. Jesus al ways talked man up. He ever saw the potentialities in every Individual He came In touch with. No one ever climbed spir itual heights without it Note how good you feel after you have encouraged someone else. Eiia Wheeler Wilcox wrote a little prayer some years ago as follows: "Let me today do something that will take A little sadness from the world's vast store And may I bo so favored as to make Of joy's too scanty sum a little more. "However meager be my worldly wealth, Let me give something that shall aid my kind A word of courage or a thought of health, Dropped as I pass, for troubled hearts to find." Amen.
