Aggies, led by Merka, sensational R. Huffstetler,
leader in the White House to the humble citizen in his
obscure cottage, have met their problems like valiant
knights. Americans can take it on the chin and fight on
to victory.
As Charlotte Becker says, "Not he alone who gladly
dies, to win his country’s fame, or with some great, un-
—reckoned deed, rests ‘neath an honored name; but he to
whom the hand of Fate a bitter portion gives, who daily
battling fear and pain, with smiling courage, lives"—may
also -claim the title of hero
The greatest battles have not been fought on blood-
stained fields of war, but in human hearst. "He that rul-
eth his spirit is better than he that taketh a city." The
example of personal courage that President Roosevelt
gave. us in this crisis brought out the noblest in the aver-
age man. Triumphing over a physical malady that would
have reduced the ordinary man to obscurity and defeat,
he conquered and, with his great heart of courage, he is
leading us to victory. Knowledge that the President was
fighting for the welfare of the average man, through the
arduous vigils on the Potomac, brought new courage to
the citizen facing unemployment, debt, and disappoint-
ment. - - : . **
These struggles have raised us to greater heights.
Only the weakling shrinks from problems. Strong men
grow with conquering. They take the reeks in- theirpath- -
way and build stepping stones to glory..
"There should be nothing mystical about the trite ob-
servation that every crisis produces its great man," says
Simkhovitch in his "Understanding of Jesus". “The fact
is that under ordinary conditions of existence, when we
are quite sane and safe, we are using but a small frac-
tion of our potential intellectual and emotional powers.
Such a crisis quickens the activities of the individual. All
dimensions being enlarged, single figures are not out
standing unless they are of heroic size."
With heroes all around us, and courage marching on
before, we can gird ourselves and fight on to the victory
that is in sight.
"Oh, how many a glorious record had the angel of
me kept had I done, instead of doubted, had I fought in-
stead of wept."—Hubert M. Harrison in East Texan.
