The several short articles herein contained were first written and
published twenty-five years ago as an expression of the writer's
convictions.
Having come to the conclusion that conditions, in many respects, have
not improved--in fact have become more alarming; and in consequence the
future outlook in these most strenuous and extravagant times more
uncertain, the writer was prompted to incorporate these ideals in a
booklet and dedicate the same to his younger friends.
