Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forty-Fourth Annual Report Showing Condition of the Public Schools of Maryland: For the Year Ending July 31st, 1910 In submitting this, the forty-fourth annual report of the State Board of Education, it is our pleasure to call attention to the statistical tables and the several topics discussed, as proof that the public school is growing in public favor; and that it is more liberally supported by the State and the county than ever before. In proportion as the people rely upon this means of educating and training their children to become self-supporting men and women.

The quality of work done by pupils must not be sacrificed, in order to make a showing of quantity. No course of study, in any school.
