nights to get money for our little per-
sonal ends-to live in a finer house and
have more servants, to wear better
clothes than our neighbors' and more
costly jewels, to ride in electric autos

better help in his work now. Instead
of cheap ignorance he INDUCES himself
in efficiency and intelligence, because
it furthers his work.
Why has he done this work?
Why has he labored so for the chance

Because he craved fame? Or for

No; because he loves growing things:
