THE SOUL OF THE MACHINE.
“We must remember that machinery ns avc know it to-day evidences at svcry point the mind or minds which lie behind it; alul when Kipling tells us, for example, of the modern engine that it is a supreme example of law, order, beauty and restraint, obedience, discipline, what is lie saying but that it is a supreme example of the action of mind . If, then, man is- organic to the universe, aiid if, as is obviously the case, be tod 1 has been the subject of a long and intricate development process, it is only reasonable to assume that this process does not stop with his body. Indeed, so far as lis physical organism is concerned, there is reason to suppose that man’s, deve-' lopment has already reached a term and that further process will only be along the .lines of his higher nature — that i«. of his'moral and spiritual per sonality.”—Principle Selbie, of Mansfield College, Drew Lecture.
