\ JL J HEN Andrew Carnegie passed over the 

 * ^ great divide the world lost the earthly ten- 

 ement or one or its greatest souls. But his spirit 

 lives, and the things he inspired and did will live 

 forever to improve and uplift the millions of two 

 great nations. Truly, his works do follow him, and 

 throughout the next five hundred years he will be 

 gratefully remembered by uncountable millions of 

 people. 



Forty years ago it became known to the world 

 that Andrew Carnegie s great purpose in life was to 

 coin clean and honest gold into human happmes, and 

 lasting benefit to the human race. From that purpose 

 he never swerved. It is hardly to be expected that 

 his biograpber will be able to set forth adequately 

 the marvellously diversified character of his plans 

 and his acbievements for the benefit of humanity. 

 With keen insight into human character, he demand- 

 ed that in helping peoples and institutions they should 

 develop power to help themselves. His kind hands 

 swept the whole scale of humanity from the suffer- 

 ing invalids on his pension list to great institutions, 

 and cities, and even nations. 



Mr. Carnegie was the first subscriber to enter 

 the list of Founders of this Fund ; but he did so by 

 saying: I will give the last $5,000! He was annoy- 

 ed, pained and at times horrified by the destruction of 

 wild life, and it seemed to give him real satisfaction to 

 participate in a foundation that "would work perpetu- 

 ally for the better protection of wild creatures. 



Andrew Carnegie belongs to the ages.
