Herbert Spencer tells us in one short,

A true chord is touched by Sydney
Smith when he urges the importance of
happiness as an ald to education, He
says, “If you make children happy
now, you make them happy twenty
years hence by the memory of it.”
Equally wise are the words of Sir
John Lubbock: “Knowledge is a pleas

us all to try with Milton to behold the
bright countenance of truth in the still
