Book Description
Excerpt from The Origin and Ideals of the Modern School ON October 12, 1909, Francisco Ferrer y Guardia was shot in the trenches of the Montjuich Fortress at Barcelona. A Military Council had found him guilty of being head of the insurrection which had, a few months before, lit the flame of civil war in the city and province. The clergy had openly petitioned the Spanish Premier, when F errer was arrested, to look to the Modern School and its founder for the source of the revolutionary feeling; and the Premier had, instead of rebuking them, promised to do so. When F errer was arrested the prosecution spent many weeks in collecting evidence against him, and granted a free pardon to several men who were implicated in the riot, for testifying against him. These three or four men were the only witnesses out of fifty who would have been heard patiently in a civil court of justice, and even their testimony would at once have.

Book Description
Excerpt from Writing in English: A Modern School Composition It would doubtless be presumptuous to imagine that this book, as a guide to the preeminently important school subject of learning to write English, avoids all the faults of its predecessors, or contains more than a portion of their merits. But unless a text-book is thought to possess some definite advantages over the others in its field, it has no excuse for being. Attention is therefore directed to the following prominent features of this elementary treatise on Writing in English: - 1. The general plan of the development of the subject is noteworthy, as proceeding from the study and production of entire compositions, in the first chapters, to the study of the next order of composition-units, well-made paragraphs, then to sentence-construction and, at length, to the smallest units of composition, words. Since it would, however, be unwise to complete any one of these great divisions of the subject before attending at all to the others, this general order, while it is kept in view throughout, is modified as shown in the Table of Contents; to which, and to its prefatory note, attention is requested.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Course of Study in the Work of the Modern School The first requisite in any undertaking is determining and defining the results sought. This is true whether the task be a simple one, such as purchasing a suit of clothes, or a complex one, such as developing a city water system or drafting a state constitution. In an institution so complex as the public school system, it is fundamentally important to conceive clearly the results to be sought through the elaborate process of education. It is a complex and difficult process in the work of each day; yes, in the teaching of each lesson and in the direction of each exercise. Not only so, but it is rendered further complex and difficult by reason of the fact that it extends over many years of the child's life. Not alone is the process complex because of the long time it occupies, but it is further complicated by the growth changes and by changes from other causes which take place in the child during the period of his school training. Then, too, because several different teachers will help in the child's education before it is completed, it is very necessary that each have a clear understanding of the results public education should secure so that every teacher who tries to aid in the child's education may be aiming for the same results. It is evident that any fundamental attack in developing a course of study must first define clearly both the general and specific aims of the school system in which it is to be used, in order that all of its details may be planned and, shaped to the end that the course of study may be uniquely adapted, to the accomplishment in the most direct and economic fashion of the projected aims. The truth of this general proposition will become evident to any one who will recall his history of education sufficiently to note how curricula have been modified and reshaped with each succeeding aim or purpose of public education which has been proposed. A brief survey of the aims of education and of the moulding effect of each aim on the curricula of the time will afford a needed perspective in approaching our task. Early Aims of Education. There have been many changes in the conception of the purpose of the public schools during historic times. As the time when the amount of knowledge possessed by the race was very meager - so meager that it was all necessary as a means of eking out a mere scant existence - the function of the school was to fit each individual to earn his living, or to earn his "bread and butter." Living, then, was merely a food, clothing, and shelter problem, and so the aim of the school was correspondingly limited and narrow.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Modern Sunday School The pastor of a church is the pastor of its Sunday school. He is not the superintendent, unless regularly elected to that Office, 'and it is usually much better that he be not thus burdened. He is pastor - the' super intendent's pastor, and the pastor of the entire flock. He has the care of all upon his heart. He should feel keenly and constantly this responsibility in the varied Spheres of duty and dependence. To be a faithful pastor one needs to understand the theoretical basis, the ecclesiastical relations, the his torical development, and the distinctive mission of the Sunday school and of its collateral agencies. The more he knows on these subjects the more cautiously and wisely he will work, the greater his influence as a pas tor will be, and consequently the larger the success of 4 the church he serves.

Book Description
Excerpt from The School in the Modern Church "Sunday School" is the title to which four generations have been accustomed; no one who knows the field of religious education can doubt that the next generation will use a new title. The change to the name "Church School" is significant, however, only because it indicates developments in the scope and functions of the school. These developments seem to call for a practical exposition which will aid any school to enter into the fulness of its opportunities. These chapters on the ideals and the practical problem? of the new type of school are not written so much for the schools consciously marching in the vanguard, and those schools which know they are "new" and up-to-date as for those which, while accepting and following the newer methods, still must struggle with inadequacy of equipment, meagre support, and ignorance and indifference, resulting in a lack of team-play on the part of their churches. I have tried to keep in mind schools which I have known in suburban areas, in the country-side and in villages, the kind of schools that would include probably between eighty and ninety per cent of all the Sunday schools in North America.
