Abstract

Authorities agree that a working knowledge of geography is necessary in the life of everybody. When this knowledge can best be obtained, where it can best be obtained and how it can best be obtained have been the ever recurrent questions among schoolmen throughout all ages. What constitutes this knowledge and what part of this knowledge is essential to the everyday and workaday life of an individual have been much mooted questions. Everyone is agreed that the only worthwhile knowledge is that which remains a part of his life experiences and which carries over into life as a means of interpreting new experiences in their relation to the past. Only as they bear this relationship, do they take on meaning.
