MUzzEYS HISTORY
i Wins LONG FIGHT
Board of Education Reported
Ready to Vote New Lease
i. of Life.
HOLD CHARGE UNFOUNDED
Fate to Be Decided Tomorrow.
Text Book Declared Absolved Of
Unpatriotic Accusation.
HOLD CHARGE UNF0UNDED

Muzzey's much criticized American
history text book will undoubtedly be
given a new lease of life in the Wash
ington high schools by the board of
epucation when it meets tomorrow
afternoon to take definite and final
action on the question of whether its
use should be continued or discon-
tnued. Members of the board who
have carefully scrutinized the con-
tents of the book, it was said today,
have reached the conclusion that the
charges that the text is un-Ameri-
can and unpatriotic are unfounded.
The fight against the use of Prof.
Muzzey's book in the District high
schools, which had been quiescent for
more than a year, was reopened at
the board meeting on February 81
by Vice President Daniel ]. Callahan.
The board. however. sidestepped the
question at that time and made it
the special order of business at to-
morrow's session.
No Evidence, They Say.
Besides the favorable report of
heads of the high school history de-
partment, who reviewed the history
when the Piney Branch Citizens AS
s3ciation opened its attack on the
before 1t the testimony of Supt. Bal
lou that much of the criticism
against the text is not supported by
evidence.
DR.. Ballou has pointed out that
Nfuzzey's book is one of the most
widely used histories in the country.
lie also has defended the charges
that the book omits the names of
some American patriots. explaining
that the omission of eI:e names is
not an indictment OF history. be-
cause the children fed up on
such names in the graded schools.
Cites Muzzey's Life.
The life of Prof Muzzey and his
ancestry with it's record of honora-
ble service in the civil war in the
war of 1912 and at Lexington. a
board member said. forbid any belief
that he would be subservant to for
eisn influence.
The boa rd tomorrow also Will be-
gin the preparation of it's reply to
the ruling of Corporation Counsel
Francis II. Stephens. in which he held
that the school governing body is d
creature of the District government,
subject TO the control of the Com
missioners. The ruling was made as
4 result of the controversy between
the school board and the Commits
aionerS over the latter's refusal to
approve a requisition for the pur-
chase Of supplies for the so-called
beauty culture at the o street No-
Uatioual School for Colured Girls.
In its reply. the board will con-
tend. it is understood. that the cor
poration counsel. in his ruling. did
not take into consideration the main
points at issue.

A great many of the old timers
used to celebrate January l by max
bling the first entries in their new
blank journals, often given for Christ
mas presents. Some of them of an
retrospective tendency felt better
after getting their explosive thoughts
out of their system in this way.
The diaries kept by our grandpar-
ents illustrated their painstaking at
tention to the daily routine of life.
They might note down their visit to
the town to buy groceries as If it
was an event worthy Of being handed
down. II preserved, these old rec
ords present an interesting picture OF
the way people lived in the difficult
conditions OF those times.
Modern young people would laugh
at the trivalties in these old journals
that their grandparents kept. But
not many of the present day crowd
have the capacity for sticking to 9
self appointed task the way these old
diary keepers did.
