Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Place and Importance of the Common School: An Address Before the Convention of County School Commissioners, Delivered in Athens, Georgia, Wednesday Evening, May 4th, 1910
One little fellow was trying to bring pure joy to the earth. A tiny pinch of human potentiality was devising a method for effacing injustice from the world, while a red-headed promise Of a future man was coming to the earth to conquer death. Every child, before he could em bark on Time's galley for the shores of the earth was re quired to have some idea or invention with which to bless the world. The children failed to find the bluebird in their travels. But when Tyltyl and Mytyl woke up in their bed, the morning after their dream wanderings, lo and behold! The bird in the cage in their rooms had turned blue during the. Night. The thing they sought was not distant from them, but in sight Of their very eyes.
