This new science seeks to emphasize the immediate duty of man to better his conditions by availing himself of knowledge already at hand.

The knowledge of the causes of disease tends only to depress the average citizen rather than to arouse him to combat it.

Given the importance of bond elections as a revenue generating mechanism for schools as well as being one of the only cases where citizens can directly make decisions in regard to school district policy, we believe that more attention should be paid to this important policy process.
