To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Maybe their employer knew that they would do better work for the touch of beauty dropped into their lives. At least they had opportunity to be larger men — which is the chief desideratum. So far from being the negation of useful- ness, beauty, at its best and in its highest employ, is the servitor of usefulness. Those who chatter airily about beauty for beauty's sake are not farther from the truth of life than are we who have brought down from ancient philosophy a spleen against most things lov...ely to behold. Unless God thought more about grace of form and glory of tinting than do a host of his children, this were a hideous old planet. Despite our misplaced emphases and the peril of the pride of the eyes, God con- tinues to paint the heavens with a color- splendor which is the despair of artists, and to clothe the flowers of the field with frank and PENTHOUSES 107 unashamed gorgeousness. If beauty is not bread, at least it feeds the part of a man that the best baker's product leaves hungry.
