From the September 1894 issue of The Christian Science Journal


There is much truth in the following views upon education expressed by Mr. Henry Latchford, a Journalist and graduate of Trinity College, Dublin. These views were recently published in the Boston Globe.

"Let me describe, without attempting to define, what I mean by a satisfactory college education. I mean such a course of training as shall develop, through discipline, the whole nature—body, mind, affections and conscience. "The Friend of Man desires," writes a modern poet, that ye think clear, feel deep, bear fruit well."

An education most valuable for the individual and society is that which best equips a man or woman for the struggle against evil influences and for strenuous cooperation with causes and forces that make for righteousness.
