Story by President George H. Brimhall
 

You can't tell the character of an individual by the way he does his daily work.  Watch him when his work is done.  See where he goes.  Not  companions he seeks, and the things he does when he may do as he pleases.  Then you can tell his true character. 

Let us take the eagle for example.  The bird works as hard and as efficiently as any other animal or bird in doing its daily work.  It provides for itself and its young by the sweat of its brow, so to speak; but when its daily work is over and the eagle has time of its own to do just as it pleases, note how it spends its recreational moments.  It flies in the highest realms of heaven, spreads its wings and bathes in the upper air, for it loves the pure, clean atmosphere and the lofty heights.

On the other hand, let us consider the hog.  This animal grunts and grubs and provides for its young just as well as the eagle; but when its working hours are over and it has some recreational moments, observe where it goes and what it does.  The hog will seek out the muddiest hole in the pasture and will roll and soak itself in filth, for this is the thing it loves.  People can be either eagles or hogs in their leisure time.
