I use the term achieve advisedly. For a unified and consis- tent life is an achievement, and one of no mean order. It does not simply happen, it will not come about merely by being ex- posed to unified and consistent teaching. It comes from an earnest effort on the part of the learner himself, first, to put together what he knows and then to act accordingly. Permit me to make a slightly different approach. Consis- tent conduct is impossible without a unified knowledge. If we are to act consistently we must, in Matthew Arnold's words, endeavor to see life clearly and see it whole. As Thomson says, it takes a long-necked observer to see the entire f-irmament from one window. So we have divisions of labor among scientists, and we have divisions in the labor of students. These constitute the courses. But the divisions be- tween courses are not insurmountable stone walls. It is a whole we study and that whole is the order of Nature, an organism with parts or members, constituting one body. All of the sci- ences, as well as religion, philosophy, and, indeed, art, are but so many different ways of viewing or approaching nature. 47
