General

Note: The first line of this article is, "As far back as 1887, when I became superintendent of schools in Brooklyn, ...". This identifies the author as William H. Maxwell who was Brooklyn's Superintendent of Public Instruction in 1887. Maxwell, Superintendentt of New York City Schools in 1911, made an address to his Principals using the same title but not identical text. A copy of that speech is in the catalogued collection.
