MESSAGE TO THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS
OF AMERICA.


THE SCHOOLS MAY LEAD.
The 18th of October 1892, the 400th
anniversary of the discovery of America
ought to be observed everywhere in
America.
The day will be marked in Chicago
by the dedication of the Columbian Ex-
position grounds. The day also may
be signalized in every town and village
in the Republic by local celebration
of which the public school is the center.
The public schools of the Republic
will form the most fitting centers for all
these local celebrations. A national
public-school observance, simultaneous
with the Chicago exercises, will awaken
a popular interest in the coming EXPOSE
ton. Far more important is the fact
that the public school has the right to
occupy the most prominent place in the
exposition. The public school is the
one characteristic which links all
neighborhoods together, and can thus
furnish common bond for national
celebration. The public school is the
ripe fruit of the four centuries of
American civilization. The public
school of to-day sways the hundred
years to come.
HOW IT CAME ABOUT.
The first approval of this suggestion
came from the public school scholars
themselves When the plan was first
proposed by the Youths Companion,
January, 1891, thousands of letters
were received, testifying to the
enthusiasm with which the scholars
responded.
The Worlds Congress Auxiliary of
the Columbian Exposition then took up
the proposal, calling up all the people
in the Republic TO observe the day in
their own localities, and suggesting
that the public schools be everywhere
the center of the celebration.
The superintendent of education
were the next to organize the fitness of
giving to the public schools the first
place in this Columbian anniversary.
At their National convention in
Brooklyn in Feb'y, 92, they took charge
of the movement, and appointed the
undersigned an executive committee to
lead the schools i'm their commemora-
ton.
APPEAL TO THE SCHOLARS.
This executive committee now appeals
to the scholars themselves to be the
first to move. 1t is for you, scholars of
the American public schools, to arouse
sentiment in your schools and in your
neighborhoods for this grand way of
celebrating the finding of America.
Educators and teachers will meet you
from their side, but it is for you to begin.
You will make it succeed, if you unite
to say that it ought to be done. The
interest of the public will be awakened,
if the scholars join in the earnest re-
quest that the school be allowed to be
the center of the days observance.
There are thirteen millions now in
the public schools. You have a chance
to conduct a patriotic movement which
will have place in history, and will
strengthen the republic through the
coming century. Next week we will
tell you what you can do
