"What You Should Know About Your City"
"The helpful kind of patriotism is the kind that grows out of a knowledge of one's town, of her growth, her people, her property, her government and her needs. This knowledge develops, first, an intelligent interest: then, a sympathy : then a reasonable affection: a wise and temperate jealousy for her good name and a wish that she may prosper and grow more beautiful: and, finally, a desire to help her to become greater and finer, a bright and clean workshop and a home for the best of men and women."-John Cotton Dana.
