What we call Life is merely an orderly impulse im- posed upon loose matter. We ascend the steps of life by order; Education or culture is getting one’s forces and ideas into some coherent plan. The uneducated man is the confused man, The trained mind is one where there is no litter; all is packed and pigeonholed; thing are in their place. ‘ Civilization is the progress of men toward order. The millennium is organization smooth working, with every human cog in its right position, functioning with every other. The process of conscience is toward evermore perfect, a wider order; until last the race shall “find itself.” Our notia of duty proceeds from self-defense to famil pride, thence to tribal adherence, thence to patriotism or nation-feeling, and at last to humanity or the world-consciousness. All wars mean the struggle of mankind toward that eventual order of the whole. Competition merges at last into co-opera- tion. Liberty is found to be impossible ex< cept under the reign of law. Humanity is growing from a condition of contesting individuals, competing groups, warring nations, into a vast co-ordinated ma< chine wherein every part shall nourish and minister to every other; even as the oak tree, by its divine,and mysterious potency of life, takes the disorganized particles of the earth and raises them into one majestic trunk, with branches and leaves. If order be heaven’s first law, it is the last goal of earth. “ FOR “SAFETY FIRST” .
