Download or read book Washington's Birthday (Classic Reprint) written by Robert Haven Schauffler and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Washington's Birthday The popular idea of Washington has recently be gun to veer away from the vision Of an eighteenth century demigod in a Wig, -an Old-fashioned statue in dusky bronze, stem and forbidding. We are swinging around toward the idea of a loveable, fallible, very human personality with humor, a hot temper, and a genuine love of pleasure. Accordingly, in gathering material for this book the editor has passed by those earlier writers who are mainly responsible for this distorted view; and he has aimed to gather here the essays, orations, poems, stories, and exercises which best exhibit the modern conception of Washington; together with a selection from his own writings, and the finest of the elder tributes to the memory Of our greatest N a tional Hero.

Unless accompanied by an inculca tion of moral truths and patriotic sentiments the daily school work becomes uninteresting, Some good idea not contained in the text book is of course suggested by almost every lesson At the same time it has come to be considered a necessity that special attention should, by the observance of the anniversary of great and good men and women, be given to the teaching of the great principles of morality and patriotism. Occasions of this kind should be made holiday occasions and should be the means of bringing together all the friends of education in the neighborhood, so that the patrons, neighbors and friends may mingle in free intercourse, take part in the exercises and partake of the fraternal feeling which always comes from the mingling of people at such meetings.

Book Synopsis The Birthdays of Washington and Lincoln by : Helen Marsh Wixon
Download or read book The Birthdays of Washington and Lincoln written by Helen Marsh Wixon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-18 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birthdays of Washington and Lincoln: Colorado Anniversary Number To the Teachers of Colorado: The birthdays of Washington and Lincoln are matters of deep concern, as America's independence and integrity are inseparably connected with their names. Every good citizen must love and believe in his country, and the memory of Washington and Lincoln should inspire every American citizen with new devotion, since no other country can boast of two such characters. They are associated with the loftiest conceptions of patriotism. They are models to whom we can all look and safely strive to imitate. Where else in the history of the world can we find men of whom it can be said, "Their lives were so pure, their ambitions so noble, and their deeds so great, that children may be taught to follow their example through life." The lives of Washington and Lincoln will teach children that while they must be strong and honest, they must also be patriotic, and since they have inherited much from the past, they themselves must accomplish much in the future. Teach the children this lesson, for it is the child of today that grasps in its small hand the future of our country. Some day this same child will have a share in the government. It is for us to make such citizenship a blessing to the country whose name we bear, by inspiring in our children a higher love of country, and a greater appreciation of the character of the men who led the cause of independence.

This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Celebration of Jefferson's Birthday in Washington, Wednesday, April 13, 1859 The friends of Freedom in Washington, under the auspices of the Republican Association, celebrated the birthday of Thomas Jefferson, on Wednesday, the 10th instant, with great spirit and enthusiasm. In the afternoon, one hundred guns were fired, partly in honor of the day, and also in celebration of the recent Republican triumphs in Connecticut, Rhode Island, Missouri, Michigan, and other States. In the evening, a large audience assembled at Odd Fellows Hall, to hear an oration in memory of the life, character, and principles of Mr. Jefferson. The occasion was enlivened by the presence of the Marine Band, which played national and patriotic airs at the intervals in the proceedings. Francis P. Blair, sen., Esq., presided, and introduced the proceedings by the following address, which briefly and perspicuously sets forth the nature and objects of the Republican organization. Gentlemen: There never was a more propitious moment than the present to revive the recollection of the principles and Administration of Jefferson. When a spurious currency has filled the channels of circulation, it can only be expelled by putting it in competition with the real standard of value. We have a party in power who affect to represent Mr. Jefferson, and carry out his doctrines in the conduct of the Government. They take the name of National Democrats. The Republican party have brought this "counterfeit presentment" of the true faith which Mr. Jefferson inculcated to the test in the measures they have submitted to the country, to restore the original principles of the Government I propose, as a preface to the proceedings of this meeting, to present a naked schedule of the acts of the National Democracy, in contrast with the measures urged by their Republican adversaries, and compare both with Jefferson's standard. The Democrats now deride the name of Republicans. This, we learn from Jefferson's Auas, was, at the threshold of Washington's Administration, a name which excited some repugnance in Washington, when used in some document prepared for him by Jefferson. Republic, Washington held to be the true title of our national institution. But it was doubtless obnoxious to that section of Washington's Cabinet which held the French Republic in odium, and employed the disagreeable association to prejudice him against its designation, as reccommended by Jefferson. Washington adopted, finally, the name preferred by Jefferson, in his own official communications to Congress. The opponents of the present Administration would restore the glory of the term which Jefferson suggested, and which Washington adopted, but which the oligarchs of that time and of this disavow and endeavor to bring into contempt. 2. Jefferson held that "Governments are republican only in proportion, as they embody the will of the people, and execute it." This is the true definition of popular sovereignty under our form of Government. It has been the constant aim of the National Democracy to stifle the principle, while professing to adopt it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exercises in Commemoration of the Birthday of Washington, February 22, 1900 Chicago is the index of the modern world. It is the most conspicuous example and the most concentrated abstract of that expansive movement which characterizes the nineteenth cen tury. With less than pe0p1e here in 1850, you had in 1870 nearly and in 1890 over a million. I shall not venture to conjecture the population at the present time, but I suppose the largest estimates scarcely exceed the actual num bers, or if they do, so great and rapid is your increase that while the investigation continues the exaggeration ends. Nor is it a growth in population only; there has been a corresponding augmentation of wealth attended by an improvement in the general well-being, an extension and elevation of popular educa tion, and an unprecedented multiplication and development of all those objects and institutions which mark and express the highest civilization.

Book Synopsis Abraham Lincoln by : William G. Frost
Download or read book Abraham Lincoln written by William G. Frost and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln: An Oration, Delivered on Washington's Birthday 1891 Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: The best teaching is by example. Ideas are most potent when embodied in living men, and thus invested with personality. The surest way to foster any noble sentiment is to select some event which illustrates it, or some hero who personifies it, and to set apart for that event or that hero a commemorative day. Let the artisan lay aside his tools, the matron her household cares, the student his books, and the very children their play. Let the pressure of routine be lifted; let our souls expand, and our best feelings assert themselves, while the great lesson is impressed upon our hearts. American patriotism is reenforced by four such commemorative days. The sun of July is greeted by earth-shaking cannon and sky-piercing rockets, which assert with boisterous acclaim the independence of a new nation. The breath of May sweeps over a more quiet gathering. It brings flowers - as though kind nature were a sharer of our grief - flowers for the humble grave of the private soldier; and it reminds us of the million arms that can strike as one for the defence of a righteous cause. The dull sky of November is a fitting background for the festival of household cheer. Thanksgiving teaches us to love our homes, to revere a pious ancestry, and to worship God. And there is one other national day. The snows of February remind us of the spotless fame of him who was our first great national representative and leader.
