Maine History in Schools

'No enlightened people in the world
question today the value and impor-
tance of knowledge of history" said
Spra gues Journal OF Maine History,
| introducing his able address On the
subject: Should Maine History BE
Taught in the Public SchooIs?"
Reviewing the transition which the
process of handing do&n to succeed
ing generations of the events of pre-
ivious generations has undergone, from
the days when verse and ballad was
the medium when mental capacity
had not senscd the value of accuracy"
he noted the increasing desire for
facts as civilization advanced.
This evolution from the time OF
Moses to the present hour has
brought to the world its knowledge
and appreciation Of history We now
know its full meaning. Our vision is
clear: we see that it has been the
siEn-posts Of the ages. guiding civil
ization in its darkest hours, ever di-
recting the march of human progress
down the avenues Of time" $
Maine History An Essential Study
IF reasonable part of the course
OF study in our schools should of a
necessity embrace the study of history
generally, if a comprehension of the
evolution of civilization is essential in
laying the foundations of education in

whatsoever in opposition to the study
