Crowds have a fashion of acting wildly in moments of crises, and this crowd was probably no exception to the rule"); Editorial by Hugh O. Pentecost entitled "The Industrial Christian Alliance"; article "The Folly of Sacrifice" by Rev. Frank E. Mason [Rev. Mason was an Assistant Pastor to Mary Baker Eddy and Editor of the Christian Science Journal]; Chapter XVII of novel "The Journal of a Scientist During a Voyage to the Planet Mars" by Samuel H.

It is impossible to enumerate the nine hundred and ninety-two charities in it. Let us take some which are types. You will find your own pet charity is not different. The 'Fresh Air Fund' is a charming charity, well managed, and on a grand scale. A newspaper has taken eighty-two thousand children out for two weeks each in the last five years, at a cost of three hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars. Suppose the other funds have done as much. Suppose they have done ten times as much. Still the little ones die like rats in the sewers.

Mills, the curator of the Ohio State Archaeological and Historical Society, and Albert T. Clay, the assistant curator of Babylonian antiquities at the University of Pennsylvania.
