Excerpt from Personal Work A number Of my fellow-workers have been urging me to present in some permanent form, especially for the Christian students in our institutions of learning, results of my experience in the study and practice of personal work. Whether my compliance with the request of these friends will supply a need, or even present new thoughts, in connection with this important part of Christian activity, can only be determined when the following pages have gone upon their mission. I am under special Obligations to the International Committee of Young Men's Christian Associations for the liberty to quote from or use its valuable pamphlets on this subject, and I take the liberty to arrange desirable texts of Scripture after the method used by Mr. Dyson Hague in Ways to Win. My Imp: is that this book may prove a help to young people who desire to bring men to Jesus. My ambition is to write it in such a way that the perusal Of its pages may incite the reader to more earnest religious effort. My prayer is that the Master, in whose name it is written, will approve it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Personal Work: Or Bringing Men to Christ IN presenting this volume to the reading public, I do so with an earnest desire that it may inspire, with a stronger hope, activity and courage, many among that vast multi tude of personal workers who, on the wide sea of human life, are so industriously manip ulating the go spel net in their efforts to catch men for Christ. If any by reading it are stimulated to wiser and more successful ao tion in advancing the Master's Kingdom, then I am abundantly compensated for the time I have employed in writing the book.

Excerpt from Studies for Personal Workers These studies attempt a general survey of the subject Of personal work on the part Of the Christian believer. They discuss the principal features Of the subject, and seek to answer many questions which arise in the various experiences which are most common in the attempt to win men to Christ. The leader may wish to supplement the suggestions Offered, but he will find here a sufficient basis for the Study. The studies are arranged with a View to a weekly meeting of a Class of Personal Workers. For six days of the week there is a page a day to be considered. Sug gestions for the Class given the seventh day are not only for the purpose Of giving direction to the discussions in the class, where the review of the six days' reading will take place, but also to assist the individual reader in seizing upon the salient points in each day's lesson. Thus each day, by turning to these suggestions at the end Of the study, he will find assistance in this particular. In the Class the attempt should be made to discuss the experiences Of the workers, who will apply the principles involved to their own efforts to win men. Names need not be mentioned, but should be remembered in the Prayer Circle. If the friendship of the Circle should justify the confidence, the names may be given, so each one can be remembered by name each day in prayer. Moreover, others in the Class may be able to assist in winning these to Christ. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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.
