To Give Joy crnd Growth To One Man

(Thomas Dreier in "The Vagabond.")

When Dr. W. H. P. Faunce was president of Brown Univirsity he applied the teachings of Immanuel Kant to our present-day problems. He called our attention to this principle as one to use daily:

Treat every human being as an end, never as a means only. Can anything more revolutionary be imagined? Most of us are treating human beings every day as only a means by which we profit. These creatures around us, "the butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker," laborers for our comfort, tools to be used in our own achievement. In the factory we fittingly call them "hands" because we use them to achieve our desires, not theirs. We often hire them and fire them, card-catalogue them and blaclilist them, utilize them in a hundred ways for our advantage, not for theirs. They are the hands by which we clasp the cloth we need, the sugar we want, the fortune we aFe ever seeking. And so long as one section of the community is "hands" and another section is "brains," the industrial problem will remain, ominous and over-shadowing. ' Immanuel Kant would change all this. He bids us remember that each man is not only a means-as, of course, he is-but he is also an end in himself, and that the whole Iactory, mill, college, city, the entire universe, and God Himself, exist to give growth and joy to that one man.

Creeds

Our solemn creeds at best are but Our own thoughts mirrored back, The black man paints the devil white, The white man paints him black.

. The Essenticrl Is the JoY

By Pierre Ceresole

All these somberly moral people whose characteristic is renunciation, completely forget what is essential. It is not morality, however indispensable and respectable that is. The essential is the joy, the splendor, the magnificence of each man, of all men. Virtue is only a means. The essential is life-splendid life. There is no greater mistake than to imagine the Eternal looking with a pleased smile at these pale little virtues. What the Eternal loves is life-beautiful, powerful, intense.

"Man wants but littlc hcre belowNor wants that little long,"'Tis not with me exactly soBut 'tis so in tte song. My wants are many, and if told, Would muster many a scorF And were each wish a mint of gold I still should long for more.

I want a warrn and faithful friend To cheer the adverse hour 'Who ne'er to flatter will descend Nor bend the knee to Power,A friend to chide me when I'm wrong, My inrnost soul to sce; And that my friendship prove as strong For him as his for me.

These are thc wants of tortal taqI cannot want them long, For life itself is but a sPan' And eartbly bliss- a song; My last great want, absorbing alL Is, when beneath thc so4 And surnrnoned to my final call' The Mercy of my H.
