CAPITAL AND LABOUR
The two hand* are r picture of the contending forces of capital and labour. The left, less skilled, more choice, served often by its fellow, and decked with rings: the right, forceful, ingenious, busy, unadorned. Onlv by bringing them together can har»r plishcd. If they contend, they work each other’s ruin; if they combine, they reach one its utmost. Met for work and clasped in prayer, these hands of capital and labour shall bring that social coni pact which it is their office to develop and defend. up to its host estate. Fighting each other they will but mar and finally destroy Jk the social fabric, and the left hand of capital will first give way under the pitiless blows of labour’s strong right hand.— Francis E. Willard.
