Nothing is so sacred, nothing so holy that it may claim exemption from the ordeal. Every available nook and cranny of life is searched, and investigationthe results of the appear in the daily press. Publicity reigns. Nevertheless, when all is said, there must be some guiding idea behind analysis and criticism, else their best efforts lead nowhere beyond the desert of skepticism and disillusionment. Hence the necessity for seeking out and enunciating some precepts by the aid of which the course of society may be guided. Where is the North Star of Social Progress?
