 vital questions. Let us rouse them, instruct them. 



The books will place science within their reach and these, with the

In all this there is nothing very attractive for us labor devotedness, 



that is all. As a reward the pleasure of having helped good people, ignoring 

 their possible happiness or the cause of their unhappiness. None of us 

 has entered this Association with the hope of becoming a millionaire nor 

 to make a name for himself. We have entered it in order to help our neigh- 

 bour. For my part, I am determined to do my share giving myself to this 

 work without reserve in so far as my other duties will allow.
