Originally written and published in 1940, this pamphlet was reprinted for the fourth time. In it, Quaker educator Howard Brinton writes about Quaker educational principles that "grow out of a special type of community which has a pattern of living somewhat different from that of the world around it. This pattern seeks to propagate in the world the divine-human and inter-human relationships developed within itself." Brinton here addresses the educational community out of which Quaker principles of education emerge.
