The indigenous Filipino possesses
fundamental, rudimentary instruc-
ton (what we agree in calling pri-
mary Instruction. in, perhaps, as
much or greater perfection than any
other people in the world. He shows
himself DESTROYS of learning, and the
immense majority of the natives can
read, write and figure, He knows the
rudiments of religion and morality
and shows the happy disposition to
acquire that general tint of superficial
culture which is all that the great
mass of laboring people can aspire to
anywhere in the world. On this
point statistics furnish us eloquent
and irrefutable data.
The number who cannot write is
very small including the women and
the number is much less of those who
have not learned to read, while those
who lack at least the most fundament-
al and necessary religious and moral
instruction are very rare indeed. The
correctness of this observation may
be proved if the first native one meets
even in the most remote sections.
