From the Academy

Alas and lackaday, ritualistic liberals: moral instruction rears its head again in the schools! And California, as in many matters, leads the way.

In May, the California State Board of Education, without a dissenting vote, accepted a report entitled Guidelines for Moral Instruction in California Schools. The author was Dr. Edwin Klotz, of the California State Department of Education; and this document, however much it may be modified or supplemented in times to come, points the way to a profound change of attitude in such matters by the American public, boards of education and teachers. (Copies may be obtained from the California State Department of Public Instruction, Sacramento.)
