DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Memories Men the Saved the Union Pure hero worship is healthy. It stimulates the young to deeds Of heroism, stirs the Old to unselfish efforts, and gives the masses models Of manhood that tend to lift humanity above the common-place meanness of ordinary life. The better instincts of the human race have, through all the ages, recog nized and elevated its heroes into something like objects of religious worship. TO such, songs of praise have been sung, eulogies made eloquent, histories written, and great monuments erected. When gods were created by men, their deities began as heroes, and it was what they did on earth that gave them existence and sovereignty in heaven.
