Being of a phil- NATIONAL ORGANIZATION IN ENGLAND 343 anthropjc turn of mind, and believing that man was entirely the product of circumstance and environment, he held that it was not possible to begin too early in im- planting right habits and forming char- acter. Poverty and crime, he believed, were results of errors in the various sys- tems of education and government. So plastic was child nature, that society would be able to mould itself "into the very image of rational wishes and desires. ..." That "the infants of any one class in the world may be readily formed into men of any other class, " was a fundamental belief of his. When he took charge of the mills at New FlG - 8 3 Lanark (i 799) he found the usual wretched social conditions of the lime. Children of five, six, and seven years were bound out to the factory as apprentices (R. 242) for a period of nine years. They worked as apprentices and helpers in the factories twelve to thirteen hours ajiay, and at early manhood were turned free to join the ignorant mass of the population.
