Transcriber's Notes:  In the Woodrow Wilson selection, the word'altrusion' (which is not in the dictionary) was changed to 'altruism'based on consultation with the original text from which the passagewas taken for this book.
In the Jacob Riis selection, the phrase "It it none too fine yet"was replaced with "It is none too fine yet" after consultation withthe original text from which the passage was taken for this book.
Other minor typos were also corrected.  Hyphenation was left consistentwith how it appears in the book.
