In presenting a study which makes use of the questionaire, I am well aware that this method is at present viewed in some quarters with decided disfavor. That there is genuine warrant for such an attitude I do not hesitate to admit. But the criticisms urged affect at bottom not so much the method itself as its uncritical employment on the part of certain persons whose zeal outruns their discretion. That, in itself, it is sound and capable of bringing forth good fruit is demonstrated if in no other way by the results obtained by Sir Francis Galton in his studies of imagery and other allied phenomena. I ts value in any particular case, therefore, is not to be hastily prejudged, but is rather to be determined by an examination of what it is set to do, the care with which returns are sifted, the precautions used against possible sources of error, and the relation established between data and conclusions. Nothing would be more fatal to the future of ethics than a general condemnation before a hearing of all studies of the moral life that employ the ques tionaire. For, if we are to solve the problems of our science, we simply must begin in some way or other to study the moral life about us in its concreteness. Contemporary economics must point us our way. Economics began its career with the pro duction of analytic treatises of which The Wealth of Nations is the typical example. Data were obtained partly from in trospection, partly from observation, more or less careful, of that part of the industrial world with which circumstances had happened to make the author acquainted.
