Excerpt from Political Education at a Public School Alike shown a rare courage and devotion which has kept hope alive during the nightmare of the last three years. But such things are a tribute to the spirit of man, not to that of the Public Schools. Many writers - men like Mr Shaw, Mr Wells, and Mr J. A. Hobson - leave one with the impression that the only thing to do is to make a clean sweep of the whole evil system. Concentrating in the main on one issue, they see in the Public Schools the strongest bulwark of those reactionary forces of class selfishness and narrow patriotism which form the most dangerous opposition to the coming of a genuinely free and united democracy. Few who have honestly faced the facts will consider their accusation groundless; and at first sight the conclusion seems inevitable. Nevertheless, the Public Schools are supremely worth preserving. Reaction ary often in effect, they and the Older Universities stand almost alone in a commercial age of five per cent. Loans as being in the ultimate intention liberal.

Excerpt from The School and the World In December, 1917, the present writers wrote a little book entitled "Political Education in a Public School," in which they put forward their views as to what the aims and methods of a modern liberal education should be. They also described certain experiments which they had been permitted to make in one of our old English Public Schools, experiments which both illustrated the authors' principles and tested their value. In July, 1918, that book was published. But in the intervening seven months several things had happened. On the one hand, "Political Education" had produced further striking evidence of its power over boys' intellects and characters, evidence altogether more striking than anything that had occurred up to the time of writing the book. On the other hand, the movement in the full tide of its success ran upon rocks and has been, for the time being at any rate, utterly and completely destroyed.

Excerpt from The Politics of Education: The Problem of Free Education Considered The subject of Free Education suffers under two serious disadvantages, which tend to bias unfavourably the public judgment. In the first place, the ever-increasing claims of the Education Department upon the taxpayer, together with the gourd-like growth of School Board claims upon the ratepay er, try the public patience to a 'degree which reaches the point of alarm, when further millions are asked' for in order to free our elementary schools from the payment of fees. In the second place, Free Education has, unfortunately, been made a party cry, and, as a consequence, the advocates of the fee system come to the discussion of the question with the appearance of party feeling and a lack of sympathy for the poor. The Conserva tive instinct that leads us along the old ways which have served us well in the past, until we see our way clear to something better, thus plays as it were into the hands of extremists, and gives to destructives a seeming monopoly of sentiment and sympathy for distress. If there is any one subject that should be lifted out of the sphere of party politics it is that of national education, the influence of which is universal and permeates every grade of society and every individual citizen. The example of our clergy, who, ' Conservative by tradition, office, habit, and feeling, nobly bore, for generations before the era of School Boards.

Excerpt from Public Education in the South This book is the outgrowth of several years' study of public educational problems in the United States, especially in the South, through courses in the history of education given at Trinity College and the University of North Carolina for teachers and prospective teachers and administrators. In such courses the aim has been to consider the principal problems of administration, support, and supervision of present-day education in the Southern States and to seek an understanding of their meaning in the light of their historical growth. The book is therefore a study of actual educational progress in the South rather than of educational theories and the relation between education and economic, social, political, and religious influences is given emphasis.

The School and the World by Victor Gollancz In December, 1917, the present writers wrote a little book entitled "Political Education in a Public School," in which they put forward their views as to what the aims and methods of a modern liberal education should be. They also described certain experiments which they had been permitted to make in one of our old English Public Schools, experiments which both illustrated the authors' principles and tested their value. In July, 1918, that book was published. But in the intervening seven months several things had happened. On the one hand, "Political Education" had produced further striking evidence of its power over boys' intellects and characters, evidence altogether more striking than anything that had occurred up to the time of writing the book. On the other hand, the movement in the full tide of its success ran upon rocks and has been, for the time being at any rate, utterly and completely destroyed. The authors have left the school in which their experiments were made. When the book was published, its reviewers in the press raised one by one a series of problems which we had already encountered in a practical shape in the course of our work, problems hardly touched on, however, in our book, which was devoted to exposition rather than argument. Such problems were: How far is political propaganda inseparable from political education, and in what respects is such propaganda desirable or undesirable? How can political differences among the masters themselves be made to play a helpful rather than an injurious part? Does the introduction of politics into the curriculum open a way, as the very able reviewer in The Westminster Gazette suggested, for Prussianism in its most insidious form, the conscription of educated opinion? Are the old Public Schools the best medium for political education, or should the new wine be poured into new bottles? and lastly-for educational "subjects" are or should be but aspects of a single whole-what of political education in relation to morality, and to religion? The present volume, therefore, essays a twofold task. The first two chapters briefly recapitulate and continue the history of our work down to its abrupt end. The latter chapters deal with such questions as those mentioned above. One feature of the earlier volume survives in its successor. The Appendix to that volume contained a selection of articles written by boys for our political paper, The School Observer. As an Appendix to this volume we print a few more articles by boys whose work did not then appear. We are under no delusions as to there being anything very extraordinary about these articles and those printed in the previous volume. Abler work has been done by abler boys in various schools at various times. They are interesting as the combined effort of a group rather than as the work of individuals. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Excerpt from The Public Schools in the United States of America In modern times the ideas of popular Education have Sprung up as necessities. But these ideas, to a great ex tent, have been transplanted from the countries of Europe to the United States of America, hardly differently from the manner in which the Secondary School was introdu ced, the history of which extends back to the beginning of civilization in Europe. Yet the schools of Europe have gradually assumed a character, so peculiar to the different nations, that it is easy to know the German from the French or English institution. And still, though it is true that the nature of educational institutions is certainly determined to a great extent by nationality, social and political interests and the standard of civilization which has been reached by each particular nation, nevertheless the achievements of one nation in the department of education like the re searches of science, cannot long remain unknown to others. And for that reason, despite their national peculiarities, we find that the schools of all European countries have much in common, and that the fundamental ideas pervading those of England, France, Germany and Switzerland are at the present day much the same. That the results' which are achieved in the different countries are so dissimilar is ow ing to two things: Knowledge or ignorance of the best methods and the skill or deficiency of the instructors.

Excerpt from The Citizen and the Republic: A d104-Book in Government In introducing an educational reform there is always danger of over-emphasis; there is danger that we may not have a good thing without having too much of it. The authors of this volume, while emphasizing community civics and the moral purposes in teaching government, have sought to avoid a one-sided course. They believe that the schools should study the community and such new civics as the changing times call for, and especially that they should give attention to current history and present day problems of democracy; but it is equally important not to neglect certain aspects of the old established order. It may be well to set pupils to the laboratory method of studying the actual life of our city communities, how milk and water are supplied, how food is distributed, how public health is pre served, how the streets are kept clean (or dirty), how the taxes are raised and used, and how the schools are sustained. But to limit a high school course in civics to such a field of study is to commit a great wrong to young people who are under training for citizenship.

Excerpt from Preparing College Men and Women for Politics Although as a judge I am precluded from all contacts with politics, I look back on the 29 years I spent in the public affairs of Essex County, New Jersey, as the most useful in my life. It was hard work, but I crave for young men and women of the rising generation a satisfaction similar to mine in helping to give their communities honest, effective government in the public interest. I am convinced that our college men and women, whose education has provided them a solid background for their activity, can supply the strongest possible constructive force in the politics of this country by working with their party organizations in their home communities. It was with these thoughts in mind that I encouraged the establishment of the Citizenship Clearing House at the Law School of New York University. Its great objective is to put outstanding young college men and women in touch with opportunities for participation in politics on a self-respecting basis. Contrary to popular notions, no young man or woman of intelligence and character need fear participation in politics if he or she is prepared to give rather than to get. It is gratifying that the idea of the Citizenship Clearing House has received wide acceptance among leaders in education, law and politics.
