CXXVIII

You may develop the intellectual side of people as far as you like, and

you may confer upon them all the skill that training and instruction

can give; but, if there is not, underneath all that outside form and

superficial polish, the firm fibre of healthy manhood and earnest desire

to do well, your labour is absolutely in vain.
