IDEAL" The speaker said in part:

IDEAL" The speaker said in part:
I'VE spoke yesterday of the personal

grow up with an honest pride in their

scorn the base and mean, and strive
for health, cleanness, efficiency. and an
honorable life. Today we consider the
Social Ideal' which must be added 10
the personal ideal in order to build up
complete character. The social ideal
may be expressed in familiar phrases
taken, as it happens from the great
look that is too little known nova

This naturally leads to the third idea
that it is up to them to pay pack
