Kipling says, "Down to Gahenna and up to the throne, he travels fastest who travels alone." That may do for a race, but it will not do for the kind of material we have to build or the kind of work that we have to do. Ours is a different work, and we might rather say, "Scaling the mountain or breasting the stream, he travels farthest who pulls with his team."
