Excerpt from Patriots in the Making: What America Can Learn From France and Germany On the other hand it must be admitted that there has been a tendency, both in the French and German schools, to magnify nationalism and to develop an tagonism toward other countries. True, the influ ence of this has been partly offset, in France at least, by certain humanitarian teachings which found their way into the schools during the last quarter-century; but the tendency to an intensification of the princi ple of nationality remained predominant. Our own schools have not been free from instruction of this sort; but it behooves us in future to avoid such teachings. To draw the line between an education that makes for proper patriotism and one that makes for narrow nationalism may not be easy, but it can be done if careful attention is given to the problem. True Americanism should pave the way through edu cation to that mutual understanding among the na tions which alone can form the basis of permanent peace.
