Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spirit of Labor This method seemed to work very well as a means of expressing the world of crime, the world of the stage, or any milieu not too com plicated and not too important. In my Au tobiography of a Thief, the simple story, in the first person, of a pickpocket's life, seemed sufficient to give the reader a fairly complete idea of the manners, customs and mental habits of the professional criminal. The material of professional crime is picturesque, in that it is exceptional and comparatively unfamiliar. It is also limited in scope. For all these rea mns, the very definite manner of the autobi ography is a vivid, central and adequate form for the artistic expression of this material.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church and Labor When the writing of this book was first considered, it was a question as to whether the discussion should deal with methods of work or with the spirit of the Church and Labor. It was decided that the latter is of greater importance, hence this selection of the treatment of the subject. It is frankly acknowledged that better things might truthfully have been said about the Church and worse things about Labor, but there is already considerable literature telling about what the Church has done and what La bor has left undone, especially when the question is discussed from the viewpoint of the Church. Thisbook is written largely from the standpoint of Labor. An attempt is madent-o present the spirit which under lies the labor movement, and to show that.

Download or read book A History of Labour Classic Reprint written by Gilbert Stone and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Labour There may be no doubt that the present age is of the great ages of the world. We who now live have experienced disasters more serious than those of preceding generations. We have also had offered to us as compensation opportunities that do not frequently recur. It is for us to move the world forward or backward. Belonging to such an age, I make no apology for endeavouring to see, by a consideration of the past, what are our tendencies and whither they are leading. As Carlyle once said, "Not on Ilion's or Latium's plains; on far other plains and places henceforth can noble deeds be now done. Not on Ilion's plains; how much less in Mayfair's drawing rooms! Not in victory over poor brother French or Phrygians; but in victory over Frost-jotuns, Marsh-giants, over demons of Discord, Idleness, Injustice, Unreason, and Chaos come again. None of the old Epics is longer possible." We have arrived at a time when the masses definitely and undoubtedly matter; when it is no longer a question of the Have-nots reaching out their hands for the possessions of the Haves. The conscience of mankind has at length realized the truth of what the Encyclopaedists declared, that mankind was composed not of some men, but of all men. With that realization the story of all men - the masses - becomes not merely invested with interest, but of importance. When Eden wrote his history toward the end of the eighteenth century, he wrote with his eye mainly on the Poor Law.

This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of the Labor Movement See that man-with ragged clothes and filthy face, his hair uncombed, just enough of his boots left to hold them together. As he walks your streets, he looks ready to go to pieces all at once, like the deacon's one-horse shay. Put some new shoes on his feet he begins to see the need of new trousers to go with them; then a new vest, a new coat, and a clean face. Then he goes home; his wife and children need new clothes, too, he thinks. Then[his house must be re paired; there must be a carpet on the floor, a table in the room, and by-and-thy, when months, perhaps years, of such reform have gone on, 'he will come home some night with the Herald or Times. Then his taste for reading will begin. He won't read Charles Sumner's speeches at first; more likely the doings of the Police Court. But he will have begun the habit of reading. So we might follow him through a long life of such gradual improvement. Well, that is education, broad and substantial; the natural, logical way to abolish ignorance and _its at tendant evils, such as intemperance and prostitution. It is precisely the education which forms the grand. Base of this whole theory of increasing wages by rais ing to a higher level the habits of the people, creat ing in them new wants, enabling them to secure new comforts. Am I not right, then, in claiming this as the educational phase of the labor movement, and in summoning to its support the men and women whose minds are broad enough to see, andwhose hearts are warm enough to feel; that this is the edu cation which the world needs Had I ten thousand tongues, each one gifted with the eloquence of o'connell, they should all say, Improve the habits of the masses, that they may be dearer laborers and better consumers; that thus, by naturally increasing wages and production, amore equitable distribution of wealth may be attained.

Download or read book Greek Prose Composition Classic Reprint written by Henry Carr Pearson and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2018-04-25 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Prose Composition Part I contains, in graded lessons, the principal points of Greek syntax, the unusual and non-essential being purposely omitted. These lessons are designed for use at the beginning of the second year's study of Greek, thereby serving as a partial review of the first year's work and as an introduction to the composition work in connection with the reading of Xenophon's Anabasis. Part II contains short, simple English sentences, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. These should be used daily in connection with the reading of the text. Part III contains connected English prose, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. This is carefully graded, so that the stu dent who performs faithfully the work outlined here will be able to pass the entrance examination of any of the American colleges. The method of writing Greek at sight used in this book needs a word of explanation. It is the outgrowth of the author's personal experience in the classroom, and his belief that the best results can be obtained only by systematic practice in connection with the regular work.

Download or read book The Path of Labor Theme written by Mary Katharine Jones Bennett and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Path of Labor; Theme: Christianity and the World's Workers Those who labored with such desire and earnestness for the selection of a theme for the textbooks for 1918-1919, that should present not only a vital but a paramount issue to the church at this time when only great realities and issues claim serious thought, chose better than they knew when they elected Christianity and the World's Workers. It is generally conceded that the most decisive single factor in the world contest today is that of Labor. That there is always danger of over emphasis by any group having the power in the body politic is axiomatic. It becomes therefore even more important now than when the theme was suggested (nearly two years ago) for our church constituency to address itself to such a study of economic relationships as shall open the way for a more complete understanding of the fundamental rights and facts involved, that a basis of thinking may be attained whereby the mutual welfare of all society may be advanced along the line of a Christian democracy. "Christian" because the body of influence set in motion by Christ is the greatest spiritual force in the life of humanity, and upon it depends the world's hope for redemption from oppression, injustice and war. At the outset of our thinking on this theme we might profitably seek a definition of the term "Christianity," for this word which calls so inspiringly to millions of people carries a sinister reminder of pogroms and persecutions to millions of others. The Rev. Dr. Charles Jefferson of New York City, says: "Christianity is a large word, and it cannot be defined in a sentence for the reason that it is used in different meanings by different persons, and also by the same person on different occasions, and for different purposes.
