Education is not an end,but a means to an end.In other words,we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them.Our purpose is to fit them for life.

In some modern countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that by freeeducation for all—whether rich or poor,clever or stupid—one can solve all the problems ofsociety and build a perfect nation.But we can already see that free education for all is not enough;we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees;they refuse to dowhat they think“low”work;and,in fact,work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful insuch countries.But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completelyuneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor;we can live without education,butwe die if we have no food.

If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses,we should getterrible diseases in our towns.

In fact,when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life,it means that we must beeducated in such way that,firstly,each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and abilityand,secondly,that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society,and that is very bad to beashamed of one‟s work.Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.
