Excerpt from Citizenship, and Duties
The aim of this book is stated in the first chapter. In short, it is to help the young student to know and to value both the privileges and the duties of the Citizenship which awaits him or her. The need for such help exists at all times: but especially does it exist to-day. The educative influences of the war have made the young grow up quickly. To guide this quick mental development aright, in so far as it is related to State obligations, is a necessity. A full attempt to do this is expected as one of the distinctive works of the new system of Day Continuation Education. My experience as a teacher of this subject in Secondary Schools has perhaps enabled me to see how best to put it before the young student - the type of youth provided for under this new educational scheme. Primarily, the book has been written to aid him. It is, however, both wide and difficult enough - in scope at least - to assist the older student and the man who is making use of his opportunities for self-education. The questions marked by an asterisk are meant for the latter class of student.
