FIFTH ANNUAL YEAR BOOK — PART VII. 693 



Have you no loved art? Have you life in any of your books? It might 

 be an awful revelation here, today, if the business men in this audience 

 were to kindly tell us what they have added to their stores of history, 

 romance, and poetry, during the years. Some old gray books are on your 

 shelf that were given to you when you were married. You have not added to 

 these old sources of inspiration. Learn to live more deeply. It is when a 

 man has made his fortune that he is in the greatest danger. It is when a 

 man has made his fortune, when he thinks he is the master of the world, it 

 is then that he most of all needs God, that he needs something that will take 

 him out of himself. Let that man be thankful who has a passion for art, 

 music, literature, especially for making this a better world as;he grows older. 

 Let each aspire at length to be a shock of corn, ' 'fully ripe."
