XXXIV. BEAUTY #
#
~r HE GREEKS loved beauty, but ugliness gave them a pain
*f[ like a blow. They planted in human life a love for the
beautiful which has lifted mankind into a brighter world
and widened the horizon of human happiness, and the lives of
their great men were models of human effort and examples of
marvelous achievement which have encouraged and inspired the
world.
There is no nobler deed than to plant in the garden of civiliza
tion flowers that will blush and bloom and shed their fragrance
to future generations.
I
THE GREEKS LOVED BEAUTY.
Let those who would pluck roses of fame, plant seed thoughts
that will blossom along life’s highway and laden the atmosphere
with progress; scatter prosperity germs in the life of state that
will flourish and bring forth the fruits of industry and open up the
gates of wonder on a world of opportunities as inviting as a
night fill1 of stars. Texas Needs Great Men.
