Book Details
First Sentence
"The Popular Recreator INTRODUCTION Toil rules the nation with iron hand whose finger points continuously in one direction, and says, "Work, that you may be wealthy." Education stands, with a Minerva-like smile, calm and wise, and whispers, "Learn, that you may be wise." To complete the trio, let us bring forward Recreation, bright of eye, glowing of cheek, with ruddy lip pouted to display her glistening teeth."
