serving and by practice and precept to
pass it on: It comes from the great
Abraham Lincoln, whose life and con-
duct are so web worthy of emulation:
—"l ani bound to win, but 1 am bound
to be true. 1 am bound to live up to
the light I have. I must stand with
anybody that stands right—stand with
him while he is right, and part with
him when he goes wrong,"
