Présentation de l'éditeur

The thing that can be done is to introduce into every public school a simple text-book of Ethics, and drill it into every child from the youngest to the oldest. The little book should present the principles of the moral conduct in the clearest and simplest manner; that is, the fundamental ideas of right and wrong, the proper relations in the family, of parent and child, of the young to the old, of inferior to superior, of the employer to the employed, the citizen and the state the duties in all their relations, as well as the rights. We may then get back a little reverence in place of the growing bumptiousness and smartness. The scholar will then be furnished with the means of seeing the difference of right and wrong in business, in politics, in social life; and added to this, the teacher will be more anxious to develop the mind as a reasoning machine than to stuff it with facts for an examination.
