Infos

The history of America's commercial growth is highlighted with the names of a few great men whose contributions to their nation have far transcended ability in business, manufacturing and industry. Elbert Hubbard, John Wanamaker-these men were merchant princes in one sense, leaders of thought and belief in another. Through their autobiographical writings and essays, they have given us a rich, poignant, inspiring picture of their fruitful lives and careers. Their words point the way to meaningful, creative, productive and brotherly living.Such a man is J. C. Penney, at once the most successful of our times in business enterprise, and the most inspiring in his personal example of courage, wisdom, and service to fellow men and to God.Faith and fellowship are no mere Sunday things in J. C. Penney's philosophy. You find a twenty-four-hour-a-day, seven-day-a-week code of Christian living in such pieces as his Six Principles for Daily Living, The Four Square Man, and The Christian and the Social Order. They are "e;the measure of the man."e;You will find LINES OF A LAYMAN more than a book to read, although its almost 200 thoughtful vignettes are fascinating, swift-paced and stimulating. You will find that it is a book to use, even a book to live by. Its pages are charged with meaning; one cannot read them without finding new ways to happiness and creativity.
