CRIED WILL, AND HIS WORDS HAD THE SOLEMNITY OF AN OATH. The field surgeon, hurrying hither, kneels beside him and feels his heart. "Pass on," he orders, as he lets the limp arm fall. "We are too late." Will Scott had kept his promise. He had proven himself worthy of his pardon. He had fought for his flag and honor. Vitalizing the Teaching of History Reclothing the Dry Bones of the Dead Past with the Living Flesh of Reality To the average schoolboy the personages of history mean very little. It is true that a few of the favorite generals of the Eevolution or of the Civil War are possessed of a sort of fictitious reality, but to most of our healthy-minded children it is unreasonable to expect them to be interested in the dry facts of history. The American boy knows the heroes of the baseball field as he will never know Napoleon; the former are flesh and blood and the latter is hidden between a worn-out cover of a History of France. It remained for the motion picture producer to raise from these dead pages of history, real heroes and stories of the past that will live in memory and hold the interest of the schoolboy spellbound. It 's history disguised as fun.
