Excerpt from The Crisis in Industry: Crowned With the Worth PrizeThe Worth Prize is maintained by Mr. C. W. Worth, '82, in memory of his father, Mr. D. G. Worth, Wilmington, N. C. The prize was established in 1882 by Mr. D. G. Worth in appreciation of the excellent work done in Philosophy by Mr. C. W. Worth. The list of Worth Prize men, headed by Mr. C. W. Worth, is a unique group. Some of them have now national reputation. One has published more books than any other alumnus of the University. One of these books, The Philosophy of Education, has been translated into four languages, including that of Japan.The prize is awarded to the best thesis submitted in the courses in Philosophy and consists in having this thesis printed. To achieve this honor gives a man distinction in University life.When one thinks of the subjects studied in these theses, he marvels at the courage of the men. They enjoy full free dom in this matter and reach their own conclusions. The instructor seeks to give vital stimulus and then submerge.Mr. Thomas Wolfe, the winner of the prize for 1919, makes an innovation, as to subject. He tells us about Industry.The students who look below the surface will agree that Industry is now the source of human anxiety. Many believe we are face to face with one of those profound storms that come in man's life every few-centuries.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
