It is the end of true education to develop that image, and so truly, too, that the child's individuality and constitutional type of mind shall not be impaired, but rather revealed in its own full ness and personal perfection. Be ye perfect even as the Father in heaven is perfect, is an injunction of sublimest import. Every faculty and every function of the individual is amenable to that heavenly principle. Every thing has a glory of its own. The highest aim of education is to reveal the life and the form of that individual perfection which Di vine Wisdom has implanted in the human Spirit.
