The need for the Committee on
Constitution Instruction was discov-
cred when Miss Eta V. Leighton.
the Leagues Civic Secretary, made
a survey OF the public schools Of
the country. The survey was made
TO classify various methods OF con-
stitutlonal instruction in order to OBJ
tain the best standard for universal
adoption. A contest among gram
mar school pupils was conducted
by the League in connection with
the survey and prizes were awarded
for the best suggestions for the
dramatization by pageants or char
ades, OF the principal provisions OF
the constitution. School children in
only fourteen states competed and
the discovery was made that the
constitution was most inadequately
taught.
