HUMAN VALUES.
" The value of the suooessful man should' be estimated by what he gives, and not by what he has been able to get, or is getiing. The most important incentive to accomplish in life is joy in your work, joy in its restilts, and the eonsciousnesa of what those results mean for yotir eommunity. To arouse and strengthen these inner foroes in young people is to me the most Important task of education. Suoh an inner basis alone can lead to joyous striving for the highest rewards to man. The jihing that should always stand in the foreground is the development of the oapacity to think, judge and work independently. If you know the fundamental methods of your profession, and have learped to think and work on your own, you will flnd your rlghfc way, and moreover, you will b« better able to deal with advaneing and changing conditions; be more oapable of adapting yourself to them, than the man whose education has been based on the accumulation of detailed knowledge.": — ^Professor Einstein.
