Opis: Constructive and Preventive Philanthropy (Classic Reprint) - Lee Joseph

Excerpt from Constructive and Preventive Philanthropy

Quite some years ago, when I had written "How the other half lives," I received a letter postmarked "Brookline, Mass.," and signed "Joseph Lee," asking some purely academic question about sweating. Now, sweating is a nuisance at all times, not to be borne, and with an academic discussion of it I never had any patience. A club seems to me to fit it better. And I remember thinking, "Who now is this fellow come to bother me" and feeling rather ungracious about it. I hope Mr. Lee has forgotten it. First impressions are but poor stuff. I suppose it depends on the man who receives them. The years that have passed have shown me and all of us Mr. Lee as he really is: the practical, common-sense champion of the boy and of his rights, in school and home and in the playground, - particularly in the playground, where the boy grows into the man. To him it has been given to grasp the full meaning of Froebel's warning that through his play the boy gets his first grip on moral relations.
