To the Teachers of Alabama:
The importance of the observance of special days as an I essential part of school work cannot be overestimated. In recognition of this idea a majority of the States in the Union require on the part of the schools the celebration of special days.
A change in the ordinary routine of school work is demanded for the good of the pupils. Unless accompanied by an inculcation 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.
There never was a time in the history of the Union when so much is being written and spoken about the origin of American Institutions and the men who have performed a conspicuous part in establishing and maintaining the government. George Washington was the great central force of the Revolutionary period. We cannot too often direct the attention of the children to his great character. His memory should be treasured and the anniversary of his birth should be celebrated as long as there is a voice among men to shout the praise of freedom.
