"Qui veut la fin veut les moyens." In the life of organised play which the children lead, attractive ends are ever being set before them.

If they are to achieve these ends, they must take the appropriate means.

What children in other schools might regard as drudgery, the Utopian takes in his stride.

Reading, writing, and arithmetic are means to ends beyond themselves, ends which are constantly presenting themselves to the Utopian.

If he is to gratify his communicative instinct, he must learn to read and write.
