Industrial and Decorative Art in Public Schools
Visual Materials
One pamphlet entitled Industrial and Decorative Art in Public Schools, by Charles G. Leland, published by Philadelphia Social Science Association, 1880. This pamphlet is 18 numbered pages in length and is not illustrated. As stated on the front cover, this paper was "Read at a meeting of the Association, October 21st, 1880." Leland suggests the ways in which the young should be educated so that they can do something to support themselves. Industrial and decorative art, he argues, not only produces a tangible product, it trains the mind. On the inside of the front cover is a "list of the papers read before the Association" between 1871 and 1880. The last page is blank.
