II all but this proverbe of Solomon

ofmen could still be sustained on his
declaration that, GAS A MAN THINK

forgotten for thirty centuries, was re-
discovered about 80 yrs. ago, and since
has become the foundation stone upon
which leaders of moderp thought have
sought to build.
Now the whole philosophy of this
simple proverb may be restated thus:
AS water cannot rise higher than it's
level, so men cannot rise higher than
their best thought. A nation is simply
an organized body of men. Thus, Solo
