Book Description
Excerpt from The Indiana Schools and the Men Who Have Worked in Them Introduction. - Being one year older than my native State, I have witnessed its rapid transition from a wilderness, mainly inhabited by savages, to a rank in civilization and intelligence surpassed by but few of her sister states. While Indiana is the twenty-fourth State in area, she is first in her invested school fund, which amounts to $8,799,191; the fifth in population and in the number of her schools; the sixth in churches; the seventh in wealth; and the twenty-second in bonded indebtedness. These items may be taken as the best index of the character of her people. I have seen the old-fashioned teacher behind his desk in true "Ichabod" style, just as he came across the ocean, who taught reading, writing, and ciphering as the full common school curriculum. I have witnessed the neighborhood sensations when English grammar, geography, history, and philosophy, were introduced.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Government of the State of Indiana: For Use in the Public Schools This volume is my contribution to the youth of the State of Indiana. If it shall teach them a better knowledge of the laws and institutions and enable them to become bet ter citizens of this State, I shall be amply repaid. I have endeavored to be so plain that the simplest mind could understand me. All technicalities and technical expressions have been studiously avoided. Perhaps the book contains technical inaccuracies but that is the necessary result, if there be any, 'of the attempt to use plain and simple language. My constant effort has been to make the subject attractive to the reader, and to relieve it of dry and unnecessary details. In every school there should be a recent edition of the Statutes of this State, to be used as a reference book, the same as an ordinary dictionary is used.

Book Description
Excerpt from Higher Education in Indiana Sir: The monograph which I have the honor herewith to submit gives a sketch of the history of Higher Education in Indiana. It con tains an outline of the free common school system of the State, a brief account of the State's educational history in the development of its common schools; and a historical account of the origin, growth, and development and the present condition of Indiana's various institutions for Higher Education. It calls attention to the early land legislation of the Continental Congress, and to the important influence of that legislation upon the future States of the Northwest; to the incidents and causes leading to the adoption of the Ordinance of 1787, and to the great Importance of that Ordinance in the subsequent educational de veiopment of these commonwealths; and the sketch shows that from the earliest Territorial days until the present time, the relation of the State to education, both elementary and higher, has been close and constant. At no time has the State acknowledged that any department of education, from the elementary schools to the university, was beyond its province.

Book Description
Excerpt from Centennial History of Indiana: For Schools and for Teachers Institutes That the year 1916, the Centennial of Indiana's Statehood, should awaken the deepest popular interest and be marked with a pageantry unprecedented in any similar case is not surprising, in view of the history of the State and its people. Indiana was the eighteenth State to be organized and to enter the American Union. Of the four dozen States compos ing the great Republic, Indiana is only the thirty-eighth in area, being the smallest of all the Western States of the old classification; but in population, according to the Federal cen sus of 1910, it is surpassed by only seven States in all the Union. The people of Indiana are chiefly of the old Colonial stock, the European immigration never having been excessive; and the boundaries of the State are for the most part highly artificial, consisting of straight and imaginary lines. Yet in its history and development Indiana has manifested a character of its own, which is altogether remarkable among the common wealths; and while the people are intensely loyal to the Union as a whole, they cherish a deep love for their State, and take great pride in it.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Story of Rural School Consolidation in Indiana No State in the American union has remained more continuously in the educational spotlight than Indiana. The elements of this continuity have been both practical and romantic, but unquestionably the state's crowning educational achievement has been the movement to divorce Mud from Mathematics - to lift the rural school child from a mud-lathered highway into a comfortable conveyance and transport him to a modern, sanitary school house wherein he could have his mind on 7 x 1 = 7, instead of on the mud that made his boots a burden. Indiana has been almost theatrical in her educational progress. In 1916 the Hoosier commonwealth will be one hundred years old. Within that century the state has marched from the tents of plebeianism into proud recognition as a center of learning. Posey county, now one of the strongest intellectual units in all Hoosierdom, once had a comedy rating as the illiteracy.
