DEDICATION To the new generation of teachers who are to carry on the work so nobly begun by the pioneers, this book is affectionately dedicated. The men and women whose lives are recorded here labored in the hope that a better day was to dawn through a better type of education. To the cause of childhood they gave the last full measure of devotion. To it they consecrated their lives. To those who are to follow on in their footsteps, they leave the rich heritage of faith that the best is yet to be in the kindergarten and in the world. |
