One hundred years ago these fathers made exiles of themselves in the interests of their sons and daughters.

The East India merchant exiled himself into the tropic land where heat and malaria made his skin as yellow as the gold he gained.

Others braved the perils of the African forests, dared the dangers of Australian deserts, endured the rigor of the arctic cold.
Losing the lower and present happiness, they saved the higher ease and comfort for their sons.

The self-denial of yesterday brought the influence of to-day.

Upon this principle God has organized the industrial world.
