Men are kept back from advanced study until they possess the necessary key to unlock the storehouse of much knowledge. Considerable time, as well, is spent in elementary work that might better be done in lower schools where the mental discipline would be more keenly beneficial to younger minds, and where there would be no time taken from other more advanced subjects...
