Social Science Emphasizes . . . Al-if-1 FOUR SCORE AND SEVEN YEARS AGOI--Venita Attebery repeats L1nco1n's immortal words as she reads the Gettysburg Address to her American History class. History is a mirror of the future. ln the histories of our state, nation, and world, we can track down the incidents that have brought about the situations of our time. In American problems, civics, sociology, economics, and geography, we learn about ourselves and other peoples and discover how we can apply that know- ledge to today's problems.
