This secures for youth from three to seven years'' daily occupation with the workings of the Latin mind. The boy or the girl gradually becomes permeated with the motives of that serious-minded people. The special significance of those words that express the ideals of Roman charac ter (and the ideals of all character), words which we have preserved in our translation into English - grav ity, soberness, probity, honesty, self-restraint, austerity, considerateness, modesty, patriotism - impresses his mind deeply as a result of long-continued study of Roman literature and history.
