Influence of Association.
THE tree-frog acquires the color of whatever it adheres to for a short time. If it be found on the oak, it is a brown color; on the sycamore or cedar, it is of a whitish-brown color; but when found on the growing corn, it is sure to be green. So a man is sure to be influenced by those with whom he associates. "Be not deceived: evil companionships corrupt good morals. Awake to soberness righteously, and sin not, for some have no knowledge of God." 1 Cor. 15: 33, 34.
