Excerpt from Wayside Flowers It is ever a pleasure to introduce our friends. We want the world to know them and to share with us the delight of acquaintance and communion. This is something more than a selfish joy; it is altruistic. What enriches us will add to the wealth of others. It is not in any sense a formal duty that devolves upon me. It is with a rare sense of inner satisfaction that I respond to the request to write an introductory paragraph or two for "Wayside Flowers." The writer is pleased to count the author among the friends who have a place in the holy of holies of his life. Our lives have run for a time, side by side, like streams that seek the same great sea. In the Church we love, in the Epworth League, to which we have been alike devoted, in social work for God and humanity, it has been my privilege to feel the pulse-beat of this young life. That you may know my friend in some measure, I would introduce to you "Wayside Flowers." These poems exhale a fragrance that will exert an influence to sanctify every-day life.
