History ought to be one of the most
Fascinating Of studies. We do not mean:
by history a lot of dates and a record
of the deeds of soldiers, statesmen and
kings, but the story of the progress Of
civilization as seen in the development
Of the peoples Of the earth. Napoleon
said that most histories are lies, but it
onght to be possible to avoid the histor-
ian who has a theory to prove at all
hazards. and find fairly accurate and
impartial accounts. of what has happen
ed. A teacher Of. history, too, ought
above all things to be fair and.to he
anxious for truth, no matter whether it
agrees with preconceived notions or not.
With the right sort of spirit in the
teacher, and the right sort Of reading,
history can be made not only intensely
interesting, but furnish a background
for citizenship. Americanization COM
mittees should remember in -considering
this that the history of the. United
States is not that Of any one section,
but that multitude of groups and ele-
ments contributed to make his nation,
and to attribute to any one section or
element all that is worth while in this
country, as some historians do, is not
only false but unfair. That the truth
shall make you free is Of the utmost
iDportanse in history.
