The best Commonwealth will always be the one that most cherishes the men who represent the residual interests, the one that leaves the largest scope to their peculiarities. First published in McClure's Magazine for May, 1905. "The Education of the Wage-Earners." Boston, Ginn & Company, 1904. "God moves in a mysterious way his wonders to perform."
The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, the Ginn, now the World, Peace Foundation, and the American Peace Society, and later the Society for the Judicial Settlement of International Disputes, the League to Enforce Peace, and many other organizations in America and in Europe were actively engaged in considering ways and means to prevent war, to strengthen the bonds of international good-will, and to insure the more general application of the principles of justice to disputes between nations.
There also were the "maids of modest glances," previously indifferent to the wooing "of man or ginn." "Bright and large-eyed maids kept in their tents, reclining on green cushions and beautiful carpets. About the golden couches went eternal youths with goblets and ewers, and a cup of flowing wine.
Hi!" as the captain stepped to the stairs, "don't say nothin' about me." Daniel, suppressing a grin, shouted up the stairs. "Zuba!" he called. "Zuba, come down here a minute." Azuba answered, but in no complacent tone. "Don't bother me, Cap'n Dott," she protested. "I'm late as 'tis." "Just a minute, Zuba, that's all. One minute, please." Mr. Ginn snorted at the "please."
I'd a ginn a hundred dollars to have had that chap as a show at a fair tar and feathers war'nt half as nateral. You've seen a gall both larf and cry at the same time, hante you? well, I hope I may be shot if I could'nt have done the same.
Is this part of it?" "Part of it's part of it; the rest ain't. You come, 'fore you do any more spilin'. Come, now." Mr. Ginn went. At the head of the back stairs he paused. "You'll sing out if you need me?" he asked. "You will, won't you? You'll only have to sing once." He tramped heavily down. Gertrude walked over to the victim of the "mistake" and its consequences.
I'd a ginn a thousand dollars if he had only used Campbell's name instead of mine; for he was a most an almighty villain, and cheated a proper raft of folks, and then shipped himself off to Botany Bay, for fear folks would transport him there; you couldnt rub out Slick, and put in Campbell, could you? that's a good feller; if you would I'd make it worth your while, you may depend. No.
Betsy's name was Ginn afore she married, and the Ginns was related on their ma's side to a Richards Emily Richards, I think 'twas and Emily married a Thayer. Would that make this Mary a third cousin? Now let's see; Sarah Jane Ginn, she had an aunt who kept a boardin' house in Harniss. I remember that, 'count of her sellin' my Uncle Bije a pig.
I am very much pleased to know she is so ambitious." "Ambitious! Azuba Ginn! What does she know about progress or advancement? Who put such ridiculous ideas in her head?" "Perhaps I did. She and I have had some long talks on the subject. She asked questions and it was duty and my privilege to answer them. I am very hopeful of Azuba. She is my first convert. I shall help her all I can." "Help her!
The word ginn originally meant "the secret," "the mysterious," "the hidden"; and the belief in ginns is part of the actual creed of Mohammedans, Arabs, and Berbers alike. But Moors have a hundred superstitions.
