Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Social Spirit in America The author appreciates the honor and opportunity of writing for the Chautauqua host. Their good deeds have furnished much of the materials for these pages, and may, as thus interpreted and related, serve to provoke others to holy services. May the writer of this book, if his words awaken friendship and sympathy, ask his readers to send him printed or written accounts of local movements kindred to those here described? Such accounts may be made to serve the public in some form and kindle zeal as well as suggest practicable method. Let the story tell of experiments which have been tried for at least one year. The world is already full of paper cities, not paved with gold, but with good intentions. Those who are putting on the armor should reserve their self-laudations till they have accomplished something, and then they will not need to blow their own trumpet. May we not all follow Dr. Hale´s hints in "Ten Times One Is Ten" and become recruiting sergeants for Harry Wadsworth´s club? "Over all the world, many a man and woman who had been talking prose all their lives, and doing very commonplace things, began to learn the great lessons, that it is in the long run much better to talk prose than to talk poetry, and that he who does commonplace things well may be mastering the world." - E.
