Excerpt from Educational History of Illinois: Growth and Progress in Educational Affairs of the State, From the Earliest Day to the Present, With Portraits and Biographies The great educational agency, in the sense in which we are considering education, is the school. Improvement in education has been accomplished mainly through the improvement of the school. The history of education, therefore, will be chie y the history of the growth of the school. In the following pages an attempt will be made to trace its development in the Illinois country from the early territorial days to the present, when the! Ancient Wilderness has become a populous empire. Where a century ago were only the Creatures Of the wild are now the seats of the mighty, palaces, temples, hives of industry and vast market places, all crowding upon each other for Standing room. This is not the place for anything approaching an exhaustive historical survey. Our task is far less pretentious than that. Illinois has a history abounding in events that exhibit all of the charm of romance. But it is to the school that we are chie y to confine our attention. We are the Children of the past, however, and to under stand ourselves and our civilization we must know something of the conditions out of Which our social and economic life developed.
