Certainly no philanthropic association, however rationalistic and
suspicious of emotional appeal, can hope to help a girl once overwhelmed
by desperate temptation, unless it is able to pull her back into the

approvable; the professed rule of men"s conduct; what all men praise;
the laudable in itself, though no man praise it.
