are led hv leaders and people who are ruled hv rulers.
Le.ideis, not rulers, are the need of the world, today its
in IJiieoln's time.
AA'c think of Lincoln as the man of lite people; the com
moner; t he democrat ; whose views were those uf the rcat,
intelligent masses, whose feelings, those of the men who
toil.
Ihir we should not think of 111 1 1 1 as the ordinary man.
Vnderstand this difference.

fj'oni that peetiliitr ieople, the "poor white trash" 'of the
southern states, spent his days in honest toil and pored far
into lite ni";lit, hy flickering; candle, over the Jew hooks he
could borrow from more fortunate neighbors.
With a determination rare in the human race, ho set
about to become a master of knowledge, and bv his own
untii'iui; xeal he raised himself from an unlettered moun
tain vokel to the most exalted position that man can
bestow.
That is why Lincoln, the
nary nun. .
Lincohis must spring .from
tin? common people can have
upon the problems and trials
(lod hasten the time when

"With a Lincoln in evcrv
warring millions, laying waste
orphaning humanitv.
J lad Tolstov been it Lincoln had that great Russian
been it peasant-horn, with a full understanding of the peas
ant's needs 1he course of history might have been
changed.
Had Liebknecht been a greater man, leaders instead of
rulers might have prevailed
history might be very dillerent.
. The common people must and will prevail, in every
land.
l!ut this happy day will not arrive until the common
people realize that the world is full of Lineolns if they
will onlv seek them out and prepare to be led bv them.
