THE WORSHIP OF WEALTH

In these days wealth getting is so frequently spoken of in connection with success that the two terms have about come to be accepted as synonymous, and conviction is forced that this is essentially mammon.worshiping gen eration.
 There probably never was time in the history of this nation when the de- sire and determination to get wealth were so universal, and when the popu- lar estimate of a mans wealth was so largely made up on the score of his bank account.
 The poor man has very pronounced feeling in these times of mot being in it.''
 Outside of the president himself, there is not statesman in America tor day who is half SO important in the pop ular mind as John D. Rockefeller of J. Pierpont Morgan.
 And except it be the presidency it. self, nine-tenths of the eager young men pushing forward to the firing line of the zestful battle of life would pre- fer to be. such men rather than have any political office the nation could give them.
 In other countries the men of wealth feel and acknowledge inferiority to the great statesmen, but in this country our rich captains of industry look rather contemptuously down upon mere may ors and governors, judges and congress men.
 We have need of broader meaning of the word success. We may keep on producing the greatest aggregation of money makers the world ever knew, but if we do not learn better to appre- ciate the achievements of scholarship, of science, of great work in every de- partment of intellectual activity, we shall not produce the worlds greatest writers, its greatest scientists and its greatest scholars.
 We need to learn too, the old, old story that wealth has it's limitations, and that there are countless desirable things it cannot buy.

Never withhold from him for mo ment the sustaining, helpful hand of a brother. Remember that your love is the only leaven that can tighten his heavy spirit. You can mako a new man of him only by opening to him new world.
