"Say Fellows—" by Wade C. Smith

"Say Fellows—" by Wade C. Smith is a collection of practical lessons aimed at boys, written in the early 20th century. The book revolves around engaging discussions about important life issues, encouraging readers to build their character and make wise decisions. Through relatable anecdotes and relatable characters, Smith emphasizes the importance of values such as loyalty, hard work, and faith. The opening of this work presents the idea that every boy is constantly in the process of building their own "temple," a metaphor for character and personal values. It compares King Solomon's intricate and grand temple to the imaginative and industrious ways boys often engage in their activities, such as building a dam, highlighting their efforts and aspirations. Smith’s conversational tone invites readers to reflect on their actions and decisions, while setting the stage for lessons that will challenge them to examine their lives and choices more closely.
