The result is not being able, from childhood to youth, to combine the practical with the theoretical. The heart with its attendant activities has not been developed correspondingly with the head. In other words, the youth have had but little or no training in the hundreds of things they have heard talked of, or have sung about, read about or in things memorized and recited. They must be taught their duties on the practical side.
