Other Wise Man by Van Dyke

Henry Van Dyke (November 10, 1852-April 10 1933) was an American poet, short story writer, educator, clergyman and diplomat. He is famous for his poetry and stories with a religious flavor.
Henry van Dyke was an American religious writer, lecturer, and clergyman. Educated at the Theological Seminary at Princeton University, van Dyke returned to the school after his graduation as a Professor of English Literature and became an elected member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters. In 1913 he was appointed by President Woodrow Wilson, his former classmate, as the ambassador to the Netherlands and Luxembourg, a job that he maintained throughout the First World War. His most famous short stories include The Story of the Other Wise Man and The First Christmas Tree, which, like many of his other works, centered around moral and religious themes. After a lifetime of public service and religious leadership, Henry van Dyke died in 1933 at the age of 80.
