HOWES NEW ERA CIVICS

For the Students of Today and the Citizens of Tomorrow, to Show Them What Government Is and Means in Nation, State and at Home, to Deepen Their Interest in Community Affairs, and to Light Their Path to Public Duty and ServiceIn preparing this work, the fruit of many years study and observation of public affairs, the author has kept foremost in his mind the practical objects of Civics teaching in our schools.The study of Civics is finding more and more favor with experienced educators, not alone because it is a source of useful knowledge to the pupil, but because it is, when wisely directed, the best kind of training for our future citizens.In a work of this character it is not enough to describe government and its Operations in the national, State and local fields. It is even more desirable to impress students with the proper sense of their coming responsibilities as citizens, to kindle in their minds the right kind of interest in public affairs, and to point out for them the way to helpful public service and to an intelligent exercise of the voting power when the time comes for them to use it.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
