Excerpt from The Need of the Twentieth Century
To support my structural thought, I find it expedient to draw, at least superficially, upon certain departments of action and suggestion, which maybe said to vitalize the human entity in proportion to his utilization of these mental and physical resources. I may state unqualifiedly,that these powerful influences in moulding character, and shaping success, are the common heritage of mankind, to which every grade has access, and which, as a matter of fact, are most freely availed of and utilized by what is described as the lower strata of'society. In our ln tellectual life the conservatory is re-enforced from the woodland and the forest, just as in the strenuous com mercial life the executive energy draws its activity and inspiration from the new-born vigor of the workshop and the bench. The clerks to-day become the bosses of to-morrow. I have neither the ability nor the inclina tion to undertake a flight into the lofty realm of the higher criticism. I shall endeavor to keep out of the clouds, realizmg that my feet are ever glued to the ground, and that I address myself to this subject as a practical man, talking to equally practical plain people.
