* THE
CHAPLAIN'S
The story is told of an Indian brave
who was wandering around the wide-open
spaces of the prairie whan a man on
horseback overtook him and asked, "Are
you lost, friend?"
Quick as a flash came the Indian's re
ply i "Indian no lost." Wigwam lost."
Many people will tell you that there
is nothing wrong with them* It's the
world that's all wrong] Everything would
be all right if only the world wouldcomo
around to seeing things their way*
When people get lost in the maze of
their-own subjective reactions, their
own emotional quandaries, it is usually
very difficult for them to see that
their trouble lies in themselves, not in
the world they blame for all their mis
eries.
Such persons should bo treated gently
and sympathetically. Being brusque with
them, even when they try one's patience,
can prove quite harmful.
Though they may not admit it, they are
groping in the darkness for the Way, the.
Truth, and the Life. It can be your -
privilege to load many to God.
