to have me do and say to him.
Then I would pick out in myself things that Ivy Lee does not like to have
me do to him and say to him, and which possibly when I study on them I

Up to Ivy to do the same to me.

This is a science. It is not merely a vision or a religion. Removing the
cause of fighting may be a less exact science of mutual study and
self-study, but it is approximately exact. It is also a fascinating and
contagious science. We master the embryology of war between persons--the
embryology of war between classes, and then between nations. The
principles which we demonstrate and set up working samples of in one of
these problems will prove to be the principles of the others.

If people do not believe in germs enough and are more afraid of fire, I
would change the figure.

We are proposing to follow up at once, the Red Cross, which was run as a

success but being a lively and interested man he could not help wondering
why people were not getting out of paintings in Holland--his own and
other people's, what they ought to and what they used to, and became a
