mind can hope to discover truths in
this field that will make a permanent
contribution to human welfare.

factors in community organization, to
note the tendencies of the forces on.
Grating for the strength or weakness
OF community life. 1t is an accented
educational principle that true growth
IN knowledge proceeds from the
known to the unknown. This being
true we have a very important reason
Tor the study of rural sociology.
The students in many Of our col.
ieges and universities come from RI.

analyzing his own experiences he pre-
Sents an opportunity for the teacher
