PATRIOTISM IN THE SCHOOL

Written for the HERALD.
There Is at present quite an ami.
mated discussion Of the question OF
raising the Stars and Stripes over
our school houses. This discussion
probably has its origin in some.
thing more than the desire for nov
city. 1t voices the growing convic.
ton that the sentiment of patriotism
Is not sufficiently cultivated in
our public schools Whatever may
he our opinion regarding the adyis.
ability or pr.ctlcability of raising
the flag, the discussion will not b.
useless if it directs public attention
TO the fact that as rule there is no
adequate or systematic effort made
in the schools to stimulate and
direct the patriotic impulses. The
fabric of Republican government
rests directly upon the three great
pillars of Intelligence, Morality and
Patriotism. A well regulated edn-
cational system should recognize ard
cultivate Patriotism, although the
law does not specially recognize it.
This is especially important at this
time. The generation of men who
are now nearing middle life had an
object lesson in Patriotism, of won
derful vividness and power, in the
rapid marshalling and onward march
OF con'emporancous events during
the soul stirring scenes of the civil
war. The father and elder brothers
were at the front, writing history in
letters Of blood, while the dear ones
at home were working, waiting and
ls,tning for the latest news from
the feat of war, and public attention
was focused upon those great ques-
tlon9, upon which depended the
future veal or woe of the Republic.
1t WAS a great privilege to have
lived in those times. Since then
generation of men have been cdu-
Gated and become voters. Many of
our schools are composed largely Of
the children of foreigners who have
moved here since the close Of the
great war, and neither parents nor
pupils have any adequate idea of
our social and political institutions,
and OF their mighty cost in blood
and treasure. Hence it becomes a
matter of serious concern that these
children should not only receive the
elements of good education, but
should learn to love and revere their
country and her institutions. 1t
seems to me that this result can
best be secured by patriotic and his.
toricaI selections for supplementary
reading, and by more attention to
and better methods of instruction
in American History and Civil Gov.
arnment. First let the children
understand that the national flag is
the emblem of national glory and ,
Ireedom, rather than of authority !

There need be no complaint o
want of text books in the future.
TuttIe & Co. are now publishing
a book prepared by Prof. Conanr
which is said to cover the whole
ground Of the civil and politica
history Of Vermont in a very abb,
manner. d. Lothrop Of Boston
is publishing series of books en-
titled "The Story Of the States,
and "Thc Story of Vermont" j.
just at hand. 1t opens with bril-
liant and picturesque account OF
the advent on the Lake of Samuc
Champlain, and Of the battle il
which the astonished Iroquois frs
saw the flash and felt the unseen
missiles Of the white mans weapons
Then follows the story Of the early
colonization, the contests of the
settlers with the New York shcrifTs
and their forces, the declaration Of
American Independence, in fact, by
Ethan Allen and hls eighty men,
the era Of State building, and the
long continued and frutleSs effort
to secure admission Of Congress-.
the adoption of the Bill of Rights,
and 4 constitution which combined
the recognition of the largest indi-
vdual freedom and of the rights of
manhood, as such, with Wholesome
and necessary legal restraints. The
source from which Ncrmontrrs
have drawn most hcirknowle,lgc
of the early history Of their State
