Description
Excerpt from Personal Help for Men
The spirit of the author in presenting to men the vital truths contained in this volume is fairly expressed in the words of Henry Van Dyke: There is a loftier ambition than mere ly to stand high in the world. It is to stoop down and lift mankind a little higher. There is a nobler character than that which is merely incorruptible. It is the character which acts as an antidote and preventive of corruption. Fearlessly to speak the words which bear wit ness to righteousness and truth and purity; patiently to do the deeds which strengthen virtue and kindle hope in your fellow men; generally to lend a hand to those who are try ing to climb upward, faithfully to give your support and your personal help to the efforts which are making to elevate and purify the social life of the world.
