ORIGIN OF PUBLIC .
SCHOOLS IN AMERICA

Belief in the advantages of educa-
lion was firmly established in the
minds of the early English settlers
in America. Two different ideas as
to who should enjoy these advantages
were in evidence in the early days.
rhe people of New England and other
northern colonies In general favored
free education for, all, while the peo-
pie of the southern colonies general
ly favored education for the aristo-
Gratis only. All the colonies, however,
made some provision for education.
Free schools were early established
in the northern colonies and out Of
these the system of free schools in all
the states was developed.
In this system common schools We're
supplemented by state normal schools,
and higher education was provided
for by colleges. Massachusetts was
the pioneer in the establishment OF
free public schools. passing law pro-
yiding for them in I641. Connecticut
passed similar law in 1850. New
Haven passed her free education law
in 1866 and provided for its enforce
ment by penalties. Rhode Island fol-
lowed their example and passed her
school law in 1890. Maine and New
Hampshire early enjoyed free public
schools, the former being a part of
Massachusetts until 1920, and the lat
ter until 1898.
In New Jersey the matter of their
establishment was left to the decis-
ion of the Inhabitants of J, the town
ships. Pennsylvania common
schools were established in 1893. In
New York a common school system by
commission was organized in 1912;
district school libraries, we're insti-
tuted in 1888, and state normal
schools in 1874. In the south the
cause of free education was given but
little encouragement until after the
civil war. the colleges were given
some aid prior to that period but the
common schools received so little
that they were of = very inferior or
der.
II is interesting to note some of the
textbooks used in those old-time
schools. Here are some of them:
New England Primer, used until 1777;
New England Psalm Book, after the
Revolution; Dilwortn's Spelling Book,
succeeded by Webster's, published In
1888, and still in print; John Wool
mans First Book for children; Bling
hams American Preceptor; The Col
umbian Orator; Murray's English
Reader. 1S00-1S45; Holders Arithme-
tic, 1719; Pixies Arithmetic, 1885:
|,Lindlay Murray's Grammar; Goald
Browns Grammar; Morse's Geogra-
ply, and 0lney's Geography. These
We're the chief books in use up to
1870
The maintenance of the public
schools was provided for by the CONT
mental Congress which enacted that
lot No. 16 of every township in the
public lands, consisting of one square
mile, be reserved Tor the support of
the common schools. This act was
strengthened by an act passed In 1887,
which made the reservation perpetual.
This was the principle of state sup
port of schools established. and 1-36th
of all public lands with the exception
as to minerals etc. dedicated to edu-
cation. This income is supplemented
by state and local taxes SO that it
consists of about five and a half per
cent of the total school revenue of
all states.
