74 Making of the Complete Citizen
England. It transmits a boundless store of conservative
tradition, in which approximately half the nation has re-
ceived its impression as it has moved within it from the days
of childhood, and as a dominant social influence it has
created an ethos distinctive of itself. It is very easy in Eng-
land to distinguish the Anglican type of citizen from the
Nonconformist. It is not that they differ in their funda-

was once called “the Nonconformist conscience.” Essential

thought and conduct. There is no universal ethical opinion
pervading all the ranks and classes of the churches. They
do not speak with one voice. During the decades that pre-

South were able to furnish arguments out of Scripture for

drastic and speedy reforms. On the relations of capital and
