What reading level is The Social Spirit in America book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
237 book-keeping, cooking, painting, dressmaking, kinder- gartens, creches, and all the rest one can consult the bulletins of the settlements. But such printed exhibits can tell little to one who has not by visits or work or residence entered into the sacred intimacies of the life itself.
Among the most remarkable manifestations of the confidence of Americans in education are the gifts of in- Missionary dividuals and churches for schools among the Indians and negroes, the "wards of the nation. ..." Various denominational societies have raised and expended vast sums for these institutions.
We give an illustration of the spirit and method of this educational philanthropy. In 1882 Mr. John F. Slater, of Connecticut, gave $1, 000, 000 for the uplifting of the colored population of the South. The income of this fund was to be devoted to education, and it was stipulated that instruction should be on a broad but positive Christian basis. All schools assisted must provide manual training to fit the youth for industry.
