Harry Preble Swett To the Graduates of the Four Year History Curriculum There is a marvelous complexity in our experience. But thinking with its categories can reduce this manifoldness to a simplicity fully as marvelous. Consider how much is involved in the three concepts of man, nature, and God. Some thinkers are satisfied with a still greater simplicity. The naturalistic, or materialistic, monist requires only nature. The mystic is content with one also, God. The dualist, combining two in the concept of mind, demands mind and nature. The idealist, while not forgetting nature, finds reality best expressed by the single term, mind. This suggests the solution of the ancient problem that is disturbing the modern world—the problem of change. But change is not the ultimate principle. There can be no change unless there is something relatively permanent by which to measure it. In the kaleidoscopic world of human society the first of the three concepts mentioned, man, the human individual, gives a fixed principle that may guide in the solution of all problems. Be interested in persons and their welfare. This standard will never change.
