This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching: Founded 1905 The six institutions described in the first section of this Manual were founded in years so recent that their beginnings are today fresh in the memory of those fortunate enough to have been associated in their inception and development. To them the personality of the founder, his belief in human progress, his optimism for the future, his sincere desire to do the best with the great fortune genius had brought together, were part and parcel of these early associations. Before the memories of these days grow dim, while the founder is with us, still full of faith for the future, notwithstanding the confusion and the pain that have fallen upon the world, it seems fitting to set down in the pages of this handbook an account of these beginnings, to tell briefly the story of how these enterprises were launched, what were the visions that set them afloat on the stream of time, and to render some account of the short voyage they have made in common. The statement which follows is the story of the first twelve years of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, the fourth in time of Mr. Carnegie's spiritual children, born in 1905, and christened by an Act of Congress in the spring of 1906. For a special reason the present moment is fitting for an account of the Carnegie Foundation, told not entirely in statistics but in terms of human experience. When the Carnegie Foundation was begun neither the founder nor the Trustees conceived of the teacher's pension except in terms of a free gift to a man grown old in a life of unselfish service. While the Act of Incorporation and the Rules adopted by the Trustees reserved to them full power to change their policy and plans, this conception of the teacher's pension seemed at that time the basis of a permanent policy.

They were delivered in English, and afterward translated into French and published under the title of Le Ge'm'e In making this American edition it has not seemed worth while to attempt to disguise the fact that these chapters were prepared as lectures to be given to a French audience, and that their purpose, in accordance with the generous design of the founder of the chair, was to promote an intelligent sympathy between France and the United States. If the book finds readers among my countrymen, I beg them, as they read, to remember its origin. Perhaps it may have an interest of its own, as a report, made in Paris, of the things that seem vital, significant, and creative in the life and character of the American people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Footprints of Roger Williams In all the early history of New England, no one name stands out so prominent to-day in the eyes of the civilized world, as that of the illustrious founder of Rhode Island and Providence. Plantations. Two hundred and fifty years have elapsed since he landed upon these shores; and the great principles which he annunciated and developed of civil and religious freedom, have come to be the foundation of every democratic republic in Christendom. The great civic anniversary, to which thousands are looking forward with quick ened zeal, will tend to bring out facts and illustrations pertaining to his early life and subsequent career, which have heretofore perhaps been obscure and unknown. The only thing that seems settled in regard to the early surroundings of Roger Williams is that he was of Welsh origin. It has always been supposed that he was of humble parentage, the place of his birth being unknown, and the date uncertain. It occurred to the writer during a recent vacation to make some investigations on this point, the clue having been furnished him by the late J. Wingate Thornton, Esq., of Boston. He first visited the rooms of the New England Historic- Genealogical Society, No. 18 Somerset Street, where, through the courtesy of the Librarian (all librarians are courteous), he was permitted to examine the "Publications of the Harleian Society," of London, consisting of a series of pedigrees and heralds' visitations.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Harvard University, Vol. 1 This History had its origin in the following circumstances. In March, 1836, the Author accepted an invitation from the Corporation of Harvard University, to prepare, as President of the institution, a discourse, to be delivered on the second centennial anniversary of its foundation, in commemoration of that event, and of the founders and patrons of the semina ry. From the researches, into which he was led by this undertaking, it became apparent that these topics could not be satisfactorily in vestigated before the day fixed Upon for the celebration. The Author, therefore, decided to prepare such a general sketch of events and characters as might be'comprised Within the limits of an occasional address, and to an nounce his intention of attempting to do jus tice to the subject in a work of a more en larged form and permanent character.
