If the teachers of children could only catch the spirit of morality, above its facts and 103 MORAL TRAINING principles, the school might easily become, as it deserves to be, the greatest agency for the moral regeneration of society. The question arises how, without continually having the mind of the child alert about the whys and wherefores of conduct, is he to be able to judge his actions ? How is he to learn to guide his course without a reasoned system of ethics ? He should, in later years, ...acquire such a system ; but I must insist that even then his ethical judgments must remain undefined, though not indefinite. It is the ever- recurring temptation, bred of inertia, to split up and dissect and define and classify the things that belong primarily to our appreciation or spiritual apprehension, that gets us into trouble. We know some things with our hearts better than we can ever know them with our minds, and the values we place upon conduct belong among them. I do not know why I love my friend, nor exactly what I get out of the Fifth Symphony or the Sistine Madonna, but I go on drawing life from them in spite of the failure of my intellect to analyze them.
