Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The School Beautiful: 1907 This bulletin has been prepared and sent out for the purpose of calling the attention of teachers, school officers and the general public to the need of our schools in respect to decoration and sanitation. In a word, we believe the schools should be both beautiful and sanitary. At present it is little exaggeration to say they are neither. The walls of our average schoolrooms, particularly in the country, are dingy and bare. If not bare, then covered with chromos and other disfigurements named pictures. To find a schoolroom having properly painted woodwork, walls and ceiling, one must search-far and wide among country and village schools, while in city schools, rooms that appeal to the artistic sense are far from common. It is needless to say children delight in the beautiful; they are educated by the beautiful and appropriate. The sense of beauty develops under favorable conditions and affects for good the whole attitude toward life. The love of the beautiful is necessary to the complete man. If this fact had been duly appreciated at all times by school boards and the general public, doubtless long before this the average schoolroom and schoolgrounds would have been made attractive. On the sanitary side it may be said that the preservation of the health of our school children is the preservation and utilization of one of the chief sources of wealth and happiness. He who can do a day´s work in a day, and a year´s work in a year, has a tremendous advantage over the man who is feeble, sickly, or otherwise incapacitated for strenuous labor. To shut up our children in dark, dingy, unventilated schoolhouses, in this day of knowledge and enlightenment, is little short of criminal. Shall we not have in this state, a revolution with respect to the appearance of schoolgrounds and school buildings both exterior and interior, but particularly the latter, and shall we not also revolutionize our schools with respect to heating, lighting and ventilating?
