Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Social and Political Necessity: Moral, Civic and Industrial Training; Experiences, Reports and Proposed Legislation Sharpening one´s wits and filling one´s memory with general information and the knowledge of right and wrong, while the teacher talks learnedly about child study, pedagogics or other educational topics, will not prevent one´s becoming a defaulting cashier or a bad citizen in other respects. You sharpen his tools and load his fire-arms for good and for mischief alike. This is what the schools in general are doing in the United States and throughout the world. Training the conscience and one´s habits Practically, so that one shall Judge and Act kindly, honestly, vigorously and wisely, is what makes good character and good citizenship, and this the schools are Not doing. The School City furnishes the successful method for doing this. Cuba was the first country in the world to recognize this practically, thanks to General Wood, and the State of Vera Cruz, in the Republic of Mexico, was the next, thanks to Governor Teodoro Dehesa and Mrs. Addie Northam Fields. Children in the cities play gambling games, and when they are grown they are gamblers. No amount of preaching or of teaching from books will put an end to this, neither can they be forced to do it by grown people. They can be led to do it themselves, if an adequate method be followed intelligently, and the School City is the Only such method. By this method the children can be led to eradicate from themselves the roots which otherwise will develop into perjury, cheating, stealing, drunkenness, cruelty, disloyalty, riots, anarchy, and other crimes of adults.
