WHAT you do to-day is going to have a part in determining what you will do in the next great crisis of your life. It may be that to-day, commonplace tho it seems, is the time of real crisis, while the so-called crisis, later on, will only evidence the way in which you met the present, unsuspected, critical test. As Dean Bosworth, of Oberlin, has said: “No man gets ready for an emergency in a moment. What he is in an emergency is determined by what he has regularly been doing for a long time.” Whether or not the high-jumper clears the bar at six feet four, when the contest has narrowed down to himself and one other man, and the intercollegiate championship now depends upon his ability to keep his feet and knees an eighth of an inch clear of the bar as he goes over it for his third and last trial, depends no more upon what he does in that tense last moment of his effort than upon what he has been doing in the entire college year preceding this climax. The man who has a habit of measuring up to the needs of a crucial test has, long before, deliberately begun and built up the habit of every-day victory in that same kind of test. One day's training is shirked at fearful risk.—S. S. Times.
