Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lessons in Geography and Astronomy on the Globes: Supplementary to the Textbooks Generally Used on These Subjects There is no article of school apparatus which can supersede the use of the common Globes, or which can surpass them in unquestionable utility. Maps, however useful, cannot truly represent the form of the earth or the true relations of its parts. Planispheres are equally inadequate truly to represent the heavens. And Orreries usually misrepresent, far more than they illustrate, the motions, magnitudes, and distances of the solar system. But the Globes are miniature fac similes of what they are intended to represent; and, with all the accuracy which the artist can give to the instruments, they illustrate the phenomena and facts which they are intended to illustrate. Pupils, whose minds have been well disciplined by the study of the pure mathematics, may possibly dispense with the use of the globes in the study of Geography and Astronomy. But for the great majority of pupils in our common schools and academies, whose minds are not, and are not expected to be, thus thoroughly prepared and furnished, the use of the globes seems to be indispensable. And even for students in our colleges, Professor Olmsted says, "The study of artificial globes cannot be too strongly recommended to the student of astronomy." Such being the case, it is surprising that these good old-fashioned implements of learning are not more generally introduced into our schools than they are, and, where they are introduced, that their usefulness is not more highly appreciated or made available.
