The culture of a community is transmitted :
Culture is the cultivation of a plant _or garden, not the eradication of is roots, it is an understanding ofthe roots and seeds, their patient care and instructed nourishment. Culture is not knowledge, nor is it art; still less it acquaintance with literature and art. By culture I mean first of all what the anthropologists mean; the way ofthe life of a particular people living together in one place. That culture is made visible in their arts, in their social system, in their habits and custom, in their religion. It is an aggregate ofcustoms, institutions, manners, standards, tastes, morals and beliefs. Now these are transmitted rather by the family than by the school; hence when family life fails to play its part, we must expect our culture to deteriorate. It is a delusion to think that the maladies ofthe modem world can be put right by a system ofinstruction. On the contrary, universal education; by lowering standards, morals and tastes to a common denominator, and by sharpening the wits rather than discipline character, tends to break down existing checks and balances. Education should be the drawing forth of potential values; it should not be the destruction ofthe safeguards that tradition places around young egos naturally inclined to wilful and precarious flights.
