a political-economical point of view. People came to
an insight of this in Sweden some 35 years ago, and
it was the reason that they tried to take such
measures as should reinstate the sloyd of their forefathers
in the honorable position which is its proper due.

Whether it be a question of spreading any new
knowledge, any new kind of work, or of reviving that which
is on the verge of extinction, we can, as is well known,
go to work for the most part in two different ways.
We can endeavor to influence either that part of the
population which is already come to adult age, or that
part which is still growing up; to influence either the
generation that is, or the generation that will be. Thence
comes, on the one hand, the forming of associations,
the giving of lectures, the arrangement of courses and,
on the other, the founding of schools for children,
where they shall enjoy an education so ordered that
it endeavors to prevent the deficiencies of the present
day from becoming those
of the future also. This
latter method will, probably,
prove to be the surest
one on the whole; for the
mind of the child is, as we
know, always more receptive
than that of the mature
man, and a foundation
should, therefore, be laid at
an early date for each branch
of knowledge. As surely as the future belongs to the
rising generation, so surely should each religious,
political, social and economical question be finally solved
