This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Student's Manual of the Constitution of Illinois While there are numerous good treatises adapted for law students' use on the Federal Constitution and Government, 'yet there is no similar work for such students on the Constitution and Government of Illi nois. Therefore this book has been prepared to meet the needs especially of students of the law in Illinois. The author's experience as a lecturer upon this sub jeet has impressed upon him the scarcity of accessible literature for students upon the topics necessary to be treated. Obviously no law course should be regarded as com plete Without a fair knowledge on the part of the student of the history and fundamental law of his own State. Yet few schools in the State give any formal instructions on this important subject. Illinois today is larger in population, richer in wealth, and more varied in its occupations and industries than the United States at the time of the adoption of the Fed eral Constitution, and its organic law deserves and should demand the study and - consideration of all Who are intending to practice law Within its boundaries.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on United States History, to Accompany the Course of Study for the Common Schools of Illinois God has revealed his mind to man, not only in the Bible, but in the rocks, the plants, the animals, the stars, and in man himself. This is why the physical sciences are so rich in content; they reveal the thought of God himself. The particular science has for its organizing principle some fundamental idea which when comprehended reveals the highest thought of a master mind. The comprehension of this thought, and its proper application to the affairs of every-day life, is one of the chief ends in all good systems of education. The mastery of the application of this fundamental principle, together with that of its sub-phases as seen in the particular phenomena or objects of study, is the work of the information side of an education.
