Excerpt from Lessons for Junior Citizens
IT is the aim of this book to create an interest in specific knowledge regarding the work of municipal governments, and to arouse a certain kind of hero worship for the men who are carrying out this work. Our policemen, our firemen, our inspectors of sanitary conditions, our builders of parks, our overseers of the poor, our school committees, and other officials and employees taken together are the guardians of our municipal life.
These unpretentious lessons have grown out of my actual experience during my years of supervision in the Lowell State Normal Practice Schools.
