POINTS OF CONTACT

A man is big in direct ratio to the
number Of points Of contact he has
with his fellow men.
Electricity Is perhaps the most po
tent and powerful force known to man
yet It's potency and power would never
be felt unless points of contact were
established This force has rcyolu.
tlonized the world Of invention and has
bettered all life by It's service to man.
And It's great efficiency is due to the
fact that It serves. It gives, it works
1t serves, and therefore it's power be-
comes practical and useful.
Men who give, men who work, men
who serve, by their giving, working,
and serving. are establishing points
of contact with the world and their
fellow men. One cannot give and
someone or something not receive;
one cannot work and someone not re-
ceiye the fruits of his labor; one can
not serve and some can not receive
new inspiration. Applied power
moves the world and makes men
grow into richer, fuller and more
active life.
Giving that which not only lends
sweetness and happiness to a mans
life but which diffuses these qualities
through all life to an infinitely great
or degree; Work-that which makes
humanity grow In usefulness and
power: Service that God.like attrib.

It becomes of service to the world.
