Senior thesis, Kansas State Agricultural College, 1895.Morse Department of Special CollectionsIntoduction: Glancing around us we are sometimes surprised at what reveals itself. In our haste we are often ignorant of many things that exist all around and about us. Things taken for granted are by no means always found to be true. One thing which I imagine would surprise most of us is the lack of a knowledge of history among the people at large and even among students of our colleges. One thing which has allowed this state of things to exist is the fact that we often take for granted that the established methods are the proper ones. Even in the present so called age of advancement it is difficult to introduce new methods though greatly superior to the old. But we are fast leaving such notions and finding that it pays to have the best (this itself the teaching of history).The organization that has made the Item available believes that the Item is in the Public Domain under the laws of the United States, but a determination was not made as to its copyright status under the copyright laws of other countries.
