Puritans and Greeks.

The reader, of the Scarlet Letter
gets vivid idea of the Puritan con-
science; 1t had its strength, but that
book principally shows it's narrow
ness and its cruelty. What a differ
ent thing was the attitude toward life
of the most gifted people in history.
The Greeks in their great period had
nothing of what we call sense OF
sin. Whey they did anything wrong,
they called 1t "a bad shot"-some-
thing that was bound to happen from
time to time and was best forgotten.
AS Livingston puts it, it was useless
to spend thought and remorse on bad
shots; it was better to go forward and
improve the aim for next time. Many
person of Puritan descent. tortured
needlessly by remorse. could gain
much by acquiring the habit of look
ing at any transgression as defec.
tive aim, and making up his mind to
get nearer the bulls eye next time
