Synopsis

Excerpt from Lessons on Practical Subjects: By Sarah Forbes Hughes and Catherine W. Faucon

In View of this fact, it has occurred to us, that, if a few of the more practical questions dependent on these laws could be treated in a way simple enough for a child to comprehend, it might be possible to give our school children right ideas at the outset. If this could be done, the graduates of our schools, when called upon in after years to vote on social or financial subjects, might not be so wholly unprepared as they often are now.
