The Investment of Influence

CHAPTER VI
20/29

When society had readjusted things and man had obtained the larger wage, Arkwright came, inventing his new loom, Goodyear came with the use of rubber, and straightway men asked a new wage to advantage themselves of woolen garments and rubber goods for miners and sailors.

On the morrow 15,000,000 children will enter the schoolroom; before noon the teacher has given them a new outlook upon some book, some picture, some convenience, some custom.

Each child registers the purpose to go home immediately and cry to his parent for that book or picture; that tool or comfort.

When the parents return that night the labor question has been reopened in millions of homes.
Intelligence is emancipating man.

Ignorance is a constant invitation to oppression.
