Big Facts in Simple Questions
IDEAS AND IDEALS.
By Rev. s. S. Began


An idea is a mutual image or
concept, which gives incipient
form, shape and possibility to a
conceivable state of life or being
or creative genius of origination
that make realizable and possible
that which aforetime had no be-
ing.
An ideal is the visualizing OF
this new creation as a set goal TO
which we aspire and strive to
obtain.
Ideas are the component ele-
ments of intellectually in the
process of expansion and growth,
while ideals are conceivable states
of perfection standardized.
A boy or girl or man or woman
without ideas is dullard and
will never get anywhere in this
world beyond a plodder's grind
and drudge and a servile place or
position in life.
Ideas are never Independent OF
moral values and so may be good
or bad, and ideals are never in
dependent of moral attitudes, SO
may be high or low.
High ideals and low living are
incompatible and stand for the
extremes of life, the best ano
the worst; therefore are as fal
apart as the poles.
