10 Letter 3d
instruction , is a school the less a school because
the body boys are not always int he school room ?
Separation however , even though carried to
the length of solitude , is not of itself sufficient
for reformation . To reformation , occupation is
necessary : occupation , profitable or at least innocent ,
to fill up the mind with useful ideas or at
least innocent ones , and by that repletion to
exclude mischievous ones . —
Inclosed space , for whatever purpose , is not
to be had without expence . To pay for that
expence if work be proposed to be done , it is
necessary not only that work shall be done , but
done in such quantity and such quality , as to
equal the expence. It is in this way that the
interests of reformation and those of economy
are intimately blended and connected . Work of
some sort or other , profitable or not profitable in
point of economy , is necessary for reformation . But
the less the expence of reformation , the less it will
be grudged .
