KANSANS GET FIRST LESSONS BY MOVIES
Children Over State Will be Taught Morals Through Instructive Pictures
Kansas leads all other states in the newest educational project. The plan of sending moral lessons on lantern slides to Kansas schools which has been adopted by the extension bureau of the State University has never been arranged before in the whole history of education in the opinion of Milton Fairchild, director of the National Institution for Moral Instruction.
"I wonder if you Kanans realize," he writes to Prof. Richard Price, director of extension, "that such a work for direct, formal, moral instruction in public schools by means of the 'movies', as you are arranging, is an innovation of the educational world. It will be going over the United States in ten years."
