Excerpt from An Average Man He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold I have gained two other talents besides them. - matt. Xxv. 22. As we read over this parable of the talents our atten tion scarcely dwells on the middle character, - the man with two talents. He seems but a lay figure thrown in between to bring out more strongly the con trast between the extremes, the man with five talents and the man with the one; \yet I_ am inclined to suspect that this seemingly neutral and colorless person is the one most important for our consideration, because he represents the average individual, who, while not intrusted with great wealth or brilliant opportunities, is nevertheless not cut off from all Opportunity nor shut out from every field of venture. Here in America the average man is in the majority and few belong to any other category. Some day it flashes upon most of us that we belong to that vast majority. It is a critical moment when the realization is forced home to our minds. Up to that time we have been so full of ambition or conceit as to believe our powers unlimited and everything possible. We have given to our hearts all sorts of excuses for still being unknown or in a minor position. Wait, we have said; our time will come; we are not yet old enough.

Excerpt from Songs of the Average Man Let me mix with these good-enough fellows, For they stretch from the Pole to the Pole, And the blacks, and the browns, and the yellows Are all fairly white in the soul.

Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.
