of one talent and mediocre mind who
are most tempted to the sin of over
' prudence. So many of us are so busy
avoiding mistakes that we have no
time to accomplish anything.
Take the matter of getting the pro-
! posed new road. Some are hanging
bac' beciuiso thev nre not sure wheth
er the venture will be a success. The
I current saying, "He sure you are right
and then no ahead," is not always safe
to follow, and as a rule will not de
velop geniuses. It is oftener the men i
who make the venture, even when they
arc not sure'they are right, who got to
the top rung of success.
The Fault of Over-Prudence.
Can a man he over-careful or over
prudent? It would seem so from the
wise man's words, as found in Pro
verbs 11:1: "He that observeth the
wind shall not sow; and he that re
gardeth the clouds shall not reap."
Aside from the lack of prudence,
overprttdence is the killjoy of life. It
is possible for a man to become a kill
joy by his over-prudence. We strain
at a gnat and swallow a camel. A
man may fail through too much zeal,
or a man may fail through too much
prudence. Many a- preacher has
missed a chance of lifetime because
of a misdirected prudence. And this
is true not only of the ministerial
class, but of other cla.es.
Take the simple matter of bodily
health. If a man is always thinking
of his health, the chances are he will
always have or feel the need of a doc
tor. Reasonable care and over-prudence
are two dilTerent things. Rea
sonable care should be exercised, but
over-prudence, never.
I accompanied a man last fall chick
en hunting ,and he was ulways care
ful to look out for rattlers. At the
end of the day the writer had nineteen
chickens and the over-prudent man
had one.
In the matter of our daily work, we
may have our mind so constantly on
the difficulties that we get nowhere.
We often refuse to tackle a thing be
caus of the uncertainty of whether it
will be a success.
Genius is prodigal and scatters its

Take the beginners of great move
ments. The g.eat reformers are all
men who mak; the venture, not worry
ing about whether the goal is cprtain
or not. They are willing to take the
risk, and they usually go down in his
tory a successful men and women.
The men and women who cau. e the
brake to drag on the automobi'e if
stf and church today are the per
sons who are always questioning the
wisdom of thij and that proposed
movement or action. They are eyeing
the clouds and spend their days
shrinking from the winds. The really
great men today are, as a rule, dis
regarding the obvious difficulties and
forging ahead in spite of all that the
pessimists say regarding the rough
places ahead.
I think more of Peter stepping on
the waters, and at least malrng the
etiort and crying out, "Lord, save me
or I perish," than Peter standing on
the shore doubting wjiether ,t i really
the Lord.
When told that the devil would caWk
him if he went to the diet, he paid,
"I would go if there wer as many
devils in Worms as there are tiled
on the housetops." The winds were
bitter, the clouds were back as mid
night, and Luther sowed and reaped
lecause he disregarded them.
There is a class so prudent, in our
churches and state, who are so ufraid
of making mistakes that tlvjy mekf:
nothing else. The greatest :nUtak to
my mind, is the mistake 01' not it
tempting to do anything. VVc lave
plenty of these in this commMivt''.
When told that Duke George was
lying in wait for him, Luther said, "I
would go, if it rained Duke Gco:ges."
While Peter kept his eyes upon
Christ, and disregarded the wind atvl
waves, he walked upon the waters, hut
whn he got over-prudent he fell mis
erably, and too often we follow in hi?
footsteps today. liacon said, "There
is no greater impediment of action
than an over-curious observance of
decency and the guide of decency,
which is time and seasons." The man
who will not work becomes an astrol
oger, says an Arab provetb.
