What reading level is Civic Righteousness And Civic Pride book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This feeling of civic patriotism was greater in the ancient days than it is in ours. It found its best expression in the Eph- ebic oath, taken by the youth of Athens when first admitted to the duties of citizenship: " We will never bring disgrace to this our city by any act of dishonesty or cowardice, nor ever desert our suffering comrades in the ranks. We will fight for the ideals and sacred things of the city, both alone and with many. We will revere and obey the city's laws and do our best t...o incite a like respect and reverence in those above us who are prone to annul and set them at nought. We will strive unceasingly to quicken the public sense of civic duty: that thus in all these ways we may transmit this city not less, but greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us." It would be a good thing if our American youth were to take such an oath as this of loy- alty and devotion to the city. Many instead come to look upon the city as an " easy mark,*' the legitimate prey of the unscrupulous manip- ulation of party politics.
