My three keys, and other talks to boys and girls

Foreword

These talks have been given to boys and girls in high -r schools, preparatory schools, and Sunday schools, and to

groups of Boy Scouts and YMCA boys. Some of them were given to soldiers in camp, and some in schools in the Near East. They are gathered together here in the hope that they may be helpful to other boys and girls who shall read them or hear them read, and that they may be suggestive to men and women who seek to influence young people through the spoken word.

My son has been so helpful in the preparation of these talks that I want to acknowledge my indebtedness to him by associating him with me in the authorship of this book.
