Cottle 1958 The Moral Law of Universe is Progress Pencil manufacturers expect mistakes tliats why they put erasers on pencils. To err is human but we should never wear out the eraser before we do the pencil. This column believes, every human wants progression and peace more than perhaps anything else. How often do we sit down and evaluate what Is important in life? If one could only grasp all the progress going on daily around us, we would have an edge on knowledge and we would use the pencile much more than the eraser in 1959. Let us look at the year with all its possibilities There is no defined law of progress. Our future is in our own hands, to make or to mar. Take to the good ideas of the day a fresh mind keeps the body fresh The moral law of the universe is PROGRE.SS. Every generation that passes idly over the earth fithout adding to that progress remains uninscribed upon the register of humanity. Every age has its problem, by solving which, humanity is helped forward. True conservatism is substantial progress. It holds fast what is true and good in order to advance in both. To reject anything that is valuable, lessons the power of gaining more. This points up the spiritual importance of this life, against the MATERIAL things that soon fade away. That a thing is new does not of course commend; that it is old does not discredit. The test question is, Ls it true or good. The wisest man may be wiser today than he 'was yesterday, and tomorrow than he is today. EACH YEAR, men of great genius and large heart sow the seeds of a new degree of progress in the world, but they usually bear fruit only after many years. "The grandest of all laws Is the law of progressive development under it in the wide sweep of things, men grow wiser as Bovee. they grow older, and societies better" individual is making daily each not a only By peculier preogative, advances in the sciences, and may make advances in morality, but all mankind together are making a continual progress in proportion as the universe grows older; so that the whole human race, during the course of so many ages, may be considered as one man, who never Pascal. ceases to live and learn. I wish for you all, a PROGRESSIVE and a HAPPY NEW YEAR! Lets think together next week. |
