The Rosary

CHAPTER XII
15/23

Try spirituality and humanity; love and life.

Seek out Mrs.Ballington Booth, the great 'Little Mother' of all American prisoners.

I know her well, I am proud to say, and can give you a letter of introduction.

Ask her to take you with her to Sing-Sing, or to Columbus State Prison, and to let you hear her address an audience of two thousand convicts, holding out to them the gospel of hope and love,--her own inspired and inspiring belief in fresh possibilities even for the most despairing." "Go to New York City and see how, when a man wants a big building and has only a small plot of ground, he makes the most of that ground by running his building up into the sky.

Learn to do likewise .-- And then, when the great-souled, large-hearted, rapid-minded people of America have waked you to enthusiasm with their bigness, go off to Japan and see a little people nobly doing their best to become great .-- Then to Palestine, and spend months in tracing the footsteps of the greatest human life ever lived.
