he says:

"I remember well the feeling roused in my mind at the mention or sight

About two thousand years later, Sir Philip Sydney, in his "Defence of
Poesy," says: "The final end of learning is to draw and lead us to so

lodgings, can be capable of."

And yet it is neither the Greek philosopher nor the Elizabethan poet
that makes the everyday application of these principles; but we have
a hint of this application from the Pueblo tribe of Indians, of whom
Lummis tells us the following:

"There is no duty to which a Pueblo child is trained in which he has
