Let us look for a moment at the voluntary association, and consider it as man in a larger form.

You see how all thought conspires to a single end and how judgment speaks in a single voice.

The very first act of organization is to choose a head for direction, and hands to execute the will of this larger man.

And now mark well this fact: Efficient action by this aggregated man depends wholly upon the unselfish exercise by each part of its function for the good of the whole.
Defect and disorder arise the moment the head seeks power or aggrandizement for itself, the hands work for their good alone, or the feet strive to bear the body alone the paths they only wish to tread.

Disease follows, if the evil is not remedied; disease, the sure precursor of dissolution.
