Co., 1893.) [338] Adapted from John Dewey, "Progress," in the _International Journal of Ethics_, XXVI (1916), 312-18. [339] From _The Mind of Arthur James Balfour_, by Wilfrid M. Short, pp. 293-97. (Copyright 1918, George H. Doran Company, publishers.) [340] From Francis Galton, "Eugenics: Its Definition, Scope, and Aims," in the _American Journal of Sociology_, X (1904-5), 1-6. [341] Adapted from G. Santayana, _Winds of Doctrine_, pp. 6-8. (Charles Scribner's Sons, 1913.) [342] Adapted from W. G. Sumner, "The Mores of the Present and the Future," in the _Yale Review_, XVIII (1909-10), 235-36. (Quoted by special permission of the _Yale Review_.) [343] Adapted from James Bryce, "War and Human Progress," in _International Conciliation_, CVIII (November, 1916), 13-27. [344] From Henri Bergson, _Creative Evolution_, translated by Arthur Mitchell, pp. 253-71. (Henry Holt & Co., 1913.) [345] From Arthur Schopenhauer, _The World as Will and Idea_, III, 107-18. (Paul, Trench, Truebner & Co., 1909.) [346] Scientific optimism was no doubt rampant before Darwin. For example, Herschel says: "Man's progress towards a higher state need never fear a check, but must continue till the very last existence of history." But Herbert Spencer asserts the perfectibility of man with an assurance which makes us gasp. "Progress is not an accident, but a necessity. What we call evil and immorality must disappear. It is certain that man must become perfect." "The ultimate development of the ideal man is certain--as certain as any conclusion in which we place the most implicit faith; for instance, that all men will die." "Always towards perfection is the mighty movement--towards a complete development and a more unmixed good."--W. R. Inge, _The Idea of Progress_, p. 9. (Oxford, 1920.)

Dwight Sanderson, "Scale for Grading Social Conditions in Rural Communities," _New York State Agricultural College Bulletin_ [in press], Ithaca, N.Y., 1921.
