Excerpt from Heroism Soph. Thou dost not, Martins, And therefore not what 'tis to live. To die Is to begin to live; it is to end An old, stale, weary work, and to commence A newer and a better; 'tis to leave. Deceitful knaves for the society Of gods and goodness. Thou thyself must part At last from all thy garlands, pleasures, triumphs, And prove thy fortitude what then 'twill do. Val. But art not grieved nor vexed to leave thy life thus Soph. Why should I grieve or vex for being sent To them I ever loved best? Now I'll kneel, But with my back toward thee; 'tis the last duty This trunk can do the gods. Mar. Strike, strike, Valerius, Or Martius' heart will leap out at his mouth This is a man, a woman! Kiss thy lord.

Excerpt from Modern Achievement: Heroes and Heroism But true heroism does not wait even for such opportunities as these for the display of its high qualities. Common, ordi nary, every-day life abounds in notable exhibitions of the heroic mold of mind and soul. In a Memphis graveyard there is a stone erected to commemorate the heroism of a pilot - mistak enly celebrated as an engineer by our present secretary of state, Mr. John Hay - who, when fire was rapidly enveloping him at his post, refused to obey his captain's order to escape while there was yet a chance, but remained by his wheel, landed his boat so that all others might go safely ashore, and then, when escape was no longer possible for him, calmly stood there, ring ing his Signal bells, till the deck burned away under him and he sank into the fiery furnace below. How often is a like heroism witnessed on the part of the firemen in our great cities! Theirs is the duty of putting out fires and preventing its extension to other buildings than those at first involved. But, like the heroes they are, they rush eagerly to that far more perilous work of rescuing men and women and little children under circumstances where the odds against their own escape are often as a hundred to one. Nor are these men buoyed up, as are the soldiers, by thoughts of a mention in general orders, or a promotion to high rank - nay, of the voice of History herself ringing down the long ages to come. They are simply heroes born, men capable, whatever their position in life may happen to be, of that great renunci ation which is the essence and the substance of heroism.

Excerpt from A Primary History: Stories of Heroism In the first few years of school life the pupil is busy with the Fairy Story, the Myth, and the Legend. These stories serve the purpose of a reading lesson, a language lesson, or it may be a lesson in literature. They also serve another purpose. The characters in these stories act, and their acts or deeds serve as signs of what they think and of how they feel. They thus prepare the way for a better understanding of the study of history. Again there are characters doing good deeds, and characters doing bad deeds. These are in con ict. This con ict becomes a great source of interest and is an important means of moral growth to the pupil. These stories are clearly both literary and historical. In the fourth or fifth grade the real historical person appears. By their own observations of man in his local surroundings and by the study just described the pupils are prepared for this man of esh and blood. The aim of this book has been to bring before the mind of the pupils a series of great historical characters. These men do interesting things from the beginning to the end of life. Because their deeds are con crete and physical they are easily pictured in imagination. To this end the author has endeavored to make the language used simple, vivid, and picturesque. Nothing should stand in the way of the imagination. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Heroism: A Reading List for Boys and Girls It has been the aim of the compilers to include those characters, ancient and mod ern, whose names are commonly associated with heroic effort and achievement and concerning whose lives there exists litera ture in biographical, historical, legend ary, or story form of genuine interest to boys and girls of High School age and younger. The list is by no means complete. The omission of certain characters may be accounted for by the absence of literature attractive to boys and girls. The annotations are interpretative rather than critical or informational and include some of the selections used in the exhibit held in 1913. The quotations then used were of sufficient interest to visitors to lead to requests for the inclusion of them in a printed list of the books.

Excerpt from On Heroes, Hero-Worship and the Heroic in History Of this Mystery of Life, and for chief recognised element therein Physical Force? Was it Christianism; faith in an Invisible, not as real only, but as the only reality; Time, through every mean est moment of it, resting on Eternity; Pagan empire of Force displaced by a nobler supremacy, that of Holiness? Was it Scepticism, uncertainty and inquiry whether there was an Unseen World, any Mystery of Life except a mad one - doubt as to all this, or perhaps unbelief and flat denial? Answering of this question is giving us the soul of the history of the man or nation. The thoughts they had were the parents of the actions they did; their feelings were parents of their thoughts: it was the unseen and Spiritual in them that determined the outward and actual their religion, as I say, was the great fact about them. In these Discourses, limited as we are, it will be good to direct our survey chiefly to that religious phasis of the matter. That once known well, all is known. We have chosen as the first Hero in our series, Odin the central figure of Scandinavian Paganism; an emblem to us of a most extensive province of things. Let us look, for a little, at the Hero as Divinity, the oldest primary form of Heroism. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Valley Forge: A Chronicle of American Heroism It melted its leaden house-badges, as pictured above, into bullets, and temporarily discontinued their use in order that the poorly equipped American soldiers might be better supplied with ammunition. Reared in the conservatism of Philadelphia, the progress of this historic company has been consistently forward. For one hundred and sixty-eight years it has promptly paid its fire losses; during the past quarter-century it has paid over one million dollars in dividends to its policy-holders; last year it wrote the largest amount of new insurance in its history; and today it stands the strongest active fire insurance company in the world.
