Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Care of the School Child: A Course of Lectures Delivered Under the Auspices of the National League for Physical Education and Improvement, May to July, 1916 The men who have given the following lectures are experts in their several departments of life. They have given freely and readily the ripe fruits of their knowledge and experience, first to those who can use them for the good of the children, and now to the public at large. Their generous patriotism deserves our thanks. Without reward or reserve they are giving to us in these lectures knowledge beyond all price. Their conduct stands out in noble contrast with the conduct of those who have devised ways of making profit out of the sorrows, losses, and heavy burdens of this time. The patriotic motto "None of us to be the richer for the War" does not appeal to those who measure values by money. It is an ignoble and deceitful standard of measurement. The welfare of man is the Divine standard; and this is the measure which these lectures apply to life. The stern events of our time are awakening people to the value of human life, which has so long been reckoned as cheap, and used too often as a means of attaining some baser end. Economists have sometimes worked out the value of man in pounds, shillings, and pence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
