Excerpt from Train the Brain for Peace or War
After the war, the peace that is coming will be a busy time. The world must repair the ravages of war and repay its debts, and build up new institutions in place of the ones of which it has become tired. The industries, forced by war to the highest efficiency ever reached in the history of the world, will not be allowed to lapse back to the old easy-going ways. Nations will continue to compete in the arts of peace, and the competition will call for the strongest and the best prepared. The Trained Man will be in de mand; the educated man, his mind exercised and alert; able to apply himself to the new job, to the kind of thing nobody ever did before. He is the man who will reap the rewards of the after-the-war conditions.
