Show SCHOOLS TO TEACH KINDNESS Oregon was the first state to make teaching of kindness to animals compulsory in the public schools, from fifteen minutes to half an hour each week in the school year by all public school teachers. A new course of study has been prepared for each of the eight grades, with supplementary reading and story telling on important points for children in the general program of humane education and cere of animals. The new course of study will be printed and got out in time for the opening of schools all over the state this fall. The Oregon law is much sought after by other states. |
