Description	“Nashville’s public school officials have planned a program based on democracy and defense. Not only are young people taught the fundamentals of their form of government, but they are taught the necessary principles of preserving it … even fifth grade pupils like those shown in the library at Eakin School are being taught the value of reading magazines, books, periodicals, and other material to keep themselves well informed throughout their lives.
