as the Eskimo and the Australian
bushman are to-day. Il is the
growth of wealth that has made
civilization first possible and then
enduring.
The Springs OF Wealth.
The growth of wealth is due to
two causes. One is individual,
and springs from man himself.
The other is social, and depends
on the relation of men to one an
other. All through history you
can see these two causes opcrat-
ing with ever increasing strength,
with the result that wealth has
accumulated Wi increasing
rapidty.
The beginning Of wealth is any
surplus over present needs. But
when the Eskimo gets such sur
plus, he gorges and sleeps, and
has TO begin ain at the old level
when his sur, us is exhausted.
Something L ,.r than a surplus is
wanted, and that is the VIII to
use the time during which it lasts
IN turning out new goods to sup
ply new reeds. When a primi-
tive man rad sown his seed-corn
and yet had enough food-corn by
him to last till harvest, his wife
could sit and spin while he built
a better house or made utensils.
In this way wealth accumulated.
And when money and trade de-
velop, these multiply hundred
fold ways OF using surplus to the
best advantage.
There is no other method Of in
creasing wealth than this old way
Of working for surplus. The
intricate machinery of modern
society may hide but cannot alter
the fact, for it is law of nature,
and there is no appeal against her
ruling. The war has compelled
us as nation to consume faster
than we produce, to suffer deficits
instead Of making surpluses. We
did it for high and noble purposes,
knowing that, with a nation as
