    [14] You can enjoy that rich and inestimable reward of knowing that you have lived and labored for the welfare of your race. You may also know that you have successfully operated in the ranks of that profession, where some of the greatest and best of the Sons of Earth have labored. Yea more, even the Son of God, when on earth in human form, made it part of his mission, to at- tend to the physical infirmities of the children of men. He was found healing the sick, opening the eyes of the blind, and un- stopping the ears of the deaf. The profession you have chosen, has therefore, the clearest, highest sanction of Divinity. Go forward then, ever cultivating purity of heart and honesty of purpose ; let each so observe his obligations to the Divine Law, as that he may be the great vitalizing centre of moral truth in the locality where he labors. So living and acting, your re- ward is on High.
