The League of teachingWe read in the Siècle of July 10th, 1867:
“A section of the association founded by Jean Macé has just been authorized in Metz, by the prefecture, under the name of Circle of the League of Teaching.”
The Moselle brings about it:
“The elected steering committee of the circle took office and decided to begin its work by founding a popular library, like those that render such a great service in Alsace.
For this work, the Circle of Metz is asking for everyone's help, and is asking for the support of anyone interested in the development of instruction and education in our city. These memberships, accompanied by a membership fee, whose value and method of payment are optional, and donations of books, will be received by any member of the committee."
As we have said, when we spoke of the League of Teaching (Spiritist Review, March, and April 1867), our sympathies are conquered by all progressive ideas; we only criticized the mode of execution of this project. We will, therefore, be happy to see practical applications of this beautiful idea.
