Organization 403 



system of conduct arising among men; is based upon the 

 same physical principle of conjugation by which benefits are 

 generalized in lowest life; and rising thence it shares the 

 motives of lower life, until it differs in being recognized, and 

 responsively inspired, by a self -knowing consciousness, en- 

 abling a perception of consequences. 



Thus there may be traced a continued growth of the 

 all-prevailing principle of organization ever promoting asso- 

 ciation for co-operative activity, which stands revealed as 

 the great and dominating conduct motive, not only of hu- 

 manity, but of all life; increasing in value as it ascends the 

 scale and presumably to increase indefinitely toward an ideal 

 unity. Organization is the expression of the law of the 

 first cause, working from the inert and simple unity which 

 is primal, toward the active and complex unity of harmony 

 which is to be perfect and final in infinite time.
