Harry Nelson Bassler, referred to the defalcation of George Shoe maker, the Harrisburg Pipe and Pipe Bending Company employe. He said that while sympathy would be felt for the wrongdoer, his cr 4 e should cause inquiry into our own lives and the lesson of carefulness and honesty in all our dealing should be learned by all familiar with the story. "Let us, in thinking over this young man's crime," sai'd the preach er, "be more thoughtful as to our conduct. Let the wrongdoing of this fmploye bring us a little closer to God and impel us to keep In the straight and narrow way. Here was a trusted employe who yielded to temptation, reaching out and taking that which did not belong to him. ISympathy should be secondary.
