One of the greatest hinders
to our helping one another is a
monster called "Gossip. " Some
cannot help each other because
of so many faults they see in. thie
others, life. They are kept con-
stantly busy picking the motes
from their brothers eye, !not.see-
ing the beams in their own.
Therefore they do not hajye time
to help someone over lifefs trials.
