University Extension' work of this sort has long ceased to need defence, but one may venture to suggest that those branches of it which seek to enlarge and deepen the sense of citizenship are nowhere more in place than in a great civic university, for which the townsman in the next street and the scholar in the antipodes are equally neigh bours, and where the local tie is vital in proportion as it furthers the catholicity of knowledge.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
