Excerpt from The College Course and the Preparation for Life: Eight Talks on Familiar Undergraduate Problems

Sive, one to whom the disciplines and disappoint ments of added years have not brought the dimming of the imagination, nor the loss of the power to think one's self back again into the free and joyous morning of human life. That comrade I would most ardently desire to be. And hence these ensuing chapters, which were first spoken informally before the undergraduates of Wil liams College, are not, I hope, essays of the didao tic and moralizing sort, such as teachers and preachers might impose upon their passive and receptive hearers. They are just friendly talks of one man with some younger men. They are intended not so much to edify and instruct as to interpret and reveal. A. P. F.
