Washburn college-"I suppose the
question refers to the well being, prog
ress and ongoing of the world--that
at least, is the first suggestion present
ing itself to my mind, and perhaps |
cannot do better than to speak to that
first impression.
tDoubtIess there are thousand diff

given with a great show of reason
ssThe churchman might say it is re-
ligion. and the educator education
the physician, good health, the seeker
after pleasure might say pleasure, the
business man wealth, and all these be
correct.
Upon first thought I should say
there is one answer that goes deeper
than all of these, and yet is not unre-
lated to them.
which is most essential and fundamen-
tai to the ongoing of the world is
honest and efficient work.
'Is it not evident, for example. that
people the world over are more happy,
more prosperous, more contented and
most God-fearing when they work?
at is not evident, too, that 1t Is
from the brain of the idler or the per-
son who does not have enough to do,
rather than from the brain of the
honest toiler, that all. or nearly all,
of the mad theories come?
1.-The one great trouble with the
world today is that millions of people
have fallen into the habit of working
less honestly and efficiently than they
ought to work, and nothing will ever
bring the world back to its senses and
bring about wholesome and normal
conditions until we all turn our at
tention once again to honest and eff
Gent work"
