''That reminds me of n story" Is a
iiMxim that hns become fumllbir to
every aehool child In our eountry. ami
it is the sequel to Lincoln's successful
career as a lawyer.
As uo tiro soon to celebrate the
birthday of America's greatest son, It
lb befitting that we should ponder for
a moment nnd ankt What element
moro than any other was It that made
this fanner's sou so groat a factor
. 1 t .
amoL'K Ills leiiow men Hint a wuoie
nation celebrates tho day of his birth?
Born on u farm ami reared In pov
erty, with but a meagro'chance to ao
U 11 ire even u rudimentary oducutlon In
his youth, Lincoln's environments
were not suoh as would tend to pio
duco men above the ordlnury sphere
lu llfo. He did not inherit wealth
with which ho might acquiro an edu
cation, yet ho becamo so fluent in the
ICugllsh language that eminent sohol
urs hove declared his speech atOeltys
burg to be ouo of tho greatest pro
ductions In American literature.
As a debator ho had no peer In the
country, and as a lawyer no ono was
blB equal. It is doubtful whether any
other man could havo executed such
great projects Jn matters of State,
Lincoln was a giant both physically
and meutally. Aud during the great
slavery agitation he possessed the
propor mettle to strike tho Html blow
that should once for all eliminate tho
oounlry's greatest moral ovll Blavory.
Had ho accomplished nothing else,
this aot alouo would havo ranked him
among the world's gret test heroes and
bouefaotore, The avowed enemy of
shivery, he had a heart which was so
warm toward the oppressed, regard
less of iao or color, that eighty mil
lion people today hold him in the
highest reverenqo, JUo wtft perhaps
sympathetic to a fault, for he could
not refuse a request for leniency to
ward negligent soldiers. .Once wUlju
Informed that twenty, soldiers were to
be shot for desertion, he pleaded with
hla general In behalf of the men, sny
ing that there wore already too many
widows and orphans in the country.
Illuminated by a warm heart, his
homely facp is to ub tho most I eiutl
ful in American history. We lovo him
for his warm heurt, wo adore hlin for
his honesfy, asid wo hall him for his
bravery, Our highest, admlratlou docs
pot culminate In Lincoln the Presi
dent, but in Lincoln (he man. Here.n
lies the secret of his useful career.
Character not money makes men
useful and great. When men possess
grout forttjney wo suspect them, but
when they poasess great character we
admire thnin. May tlio day novel
uawii when sho tliull esteem money
more than character. And may we
never lose sight of Abraham Lincoln
the man. The lesson pf this character
sketch may l;o gummed up in the
following words of Longfellow:
"Lives of great men all remind w,
We ran make our lives Kubllmq;
And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the unndx of Time."
