Beschreibung

This eBook is a reproduction of an important historical work of Albert Edward Wiggam, which was published between 1925 and 1930.  
  
In this eBook, you will discover that an educated man (or woman) is not a personality with abundant academic degrees but with the following traits:  ability to cultivates open-mind, ability to listen, never laugh at new ideas, knows the secret of getting along with other people, cultivates the habit of success, controls his/her thoughts, always ready to learn new things, always confidence about his/her skills and many more. 
  
In addition, you will be exposed to the following basic features of Life: Life is Practical (Education must be usable); Life is Dynamic (Education must be vital, alive, and active.); Life is Recreative (Education must train men and women –young and old, for play as well as for work.); Life is friendly (Education should teach humanity the art of friendship with all races, colors and creeds.); Life is cooperative (Education must teach a man/woman his/her place in the community and his/her duties toward it.); Life is idealistic (Education must be practical because life is a hard practical thing; but it must be idealistic because man is a dreamer; and "dreams are the makers and feeders of the world.) 
 
As stated in the book, which was based on the surveyed carried out by Dr. David Mitchell by examining many hundreds of people. If you will ask the next one hundred people you meet what they would do if they had plenty of money and were free to do as they pleased, without a single exception they will answer with the one word, “Travel”.  Also, according to the author, large lustrous eyes may indicate intelligence, but having tested a great many people with large lustrous eyes and found them feeble-minded. Coarse hair does not indicate a coarse nature, and red hair does not indicate a fiery temperament. Blonds and brunets are equally good salesmen, buyers and executives. 
  
I hope this book shall convince the reader that the different in men and women is not the superior of mental ability but merely understanding a difference in mental habits.  Of Course, every educated man or woman must understand this!

    Roman religion was deeply intertwined with the culture, politics, and daily life of its people. Unlike many other ancient religions, it was not based on a single sacred text or central doctrine but was instead a complex system of beliefs, rituals, and traditions that evolved over time. The foundations of Roman religion can be traced back to early influences, the societal role of religious practices, and the establishment of a structured priesthood. 
    The origins of Roman religion were shaped by various influences, including the Etruscans and Greeks. The Etruscans, who inhabited central Italy before the rise of Rome, contributed many religious customs, such as the practice of interpreting omens and the organization of priestly colleges. Greek influence introduced a pantheon of gods with human-like qualities, which Romans later adopted and adapted to fit their own cultural identity. This blending of traditions resulted in a unique religious system that emphasized duty, order, and reciprocity between humans and the divine. 
    Religion played a crucial role in Roman society, guiding both private and public life. Every household maintained a sacred space for worshiping domestic deities, such as the Lares and Penates, who were believed to protect the home and family. On a larger scale, the state religion was intertwined with governance, and public rituals were performed to secure divine favor for Rome’s prosperity. The performance of religious ceremonies was not merely a matter of personal faith but was considered essential for the stability of the state. Romans believed that their success as a civilization depended on maintaining good relations with the gods through proper observance of rituals and sacrifices.

    Written by Armando Di-Finizio, A Head Full of Ethos: A holistic guide to developing and sustaining a positive school culture is a head teacher's insightful account of how to go about developing a shared vision and blending it into a school's culture and day-to-day running.When one or more aspects of a school's running or curriculum breaks down, all too often the leadership team will jump from one idea to another in a bid to remedy the problem. This, however, can lead to blurred vision and possible confusion. Leaders may then wonder why the remedies aren't working and are likely to scramble for more, hopefully better, ideas.Armando Di-Finizio, however, believes that the key to success lies in the school's ethos and in the daily manifestation of its underpinning principles.In A Head Full of Ethos, Armando weaves his experiences and the lessons he's learned from three decades of successful school leadership into an engaging illustration of the principles which have supported him in his varied settings. In so doing, he explores the key elements that contribute to nurturing a positive school ethos and cultivating a healthy teaching and learning environment.The book examines the many interconnected cogs of a sustainable ethos - an ethos which will become the driving force in inspiring the school's students to flourish and its staff to grow professionally. In turn, it empowers school leaders at all levels with the means to take more ownership of what they do, and imbues them with more courage in relation to their convictions and decision-making.Suitable for middle and senior leaders in all school settings.

    By the close of 1864, Abraham Lincoln had been reelected, the Union army had taken Nashville from General Hood, and Sherman had concluded his total war, “slash-and-burn” march of destruction to Savannah, Georgia, offering it as a Christmas present to Lincoln. Nevertheless, with everything seemingly falling to pieces, the South still held out hope of some sort of miracle, and Davis even attempted to send a peace delegation to meet with Lincoln in the early months of 1865. On January 28, 1865 as Union General Ulysses S. Grant was continuing to lay siege to Lee’s army at Petersburg, Virginia, Davis sent three commissioners headed by Vice-President Stephens to initiate informal peace talks with Lincoln. By February 3, however, the talks, known as the Hampton Roads Conference, came to a stalemate as Lincoln would accept nothing less than total union, while Davis would only accept Southern independence.  
    	Even at that point, the South was clearly on its last legs. General George H. Thomas destroyed John Bell Hood’s Confederate army at the battles of Nashville and Franklin, leaving only two large Confederate armies still in the field. Lee's army was weakened by desertion, lack of supplies and casualties, and Joseph E. Johnston’s army could barely resist against Sherman’s army as it was advancing north toward Virginia.  
    	To most observers, the South was clearly reaching its end, but Davis had no intention of quitting the war. Even while he was fleeing, he attempted to order Confederate generals in the field to keep fighting. On April 9, 1865, Lee formally surrendered his weary army to Grant at Appomattox. Appomattox is frequently cited as the end of the Civil War, but there still remained several Confederate armies across the country, mostly under the command of General Joseph E. Johnston.
