Excerpt from Real Stories From Baltimore County History While the material has been arranged in chronological order with the purpose of emphasizing sequence of changes which time hath wrought, the psychological order takes precedence in its presentation to children. We can never ignore the fact that children are primarily interested in those persons and place and events which are closely associated with their own meagre experience first of all. Concrete, firsthand experience with real persons, places and events are essential in developing the historic sense which is onlv gradually emerging in little Third Grade children, consequently it seems best to present the story of Once Upon a Time in Our Town and Vicinity before presenting Bal timore County in any detail. The Contents aim to indicate a time sequence as well as to suggest the selected group of stories which seem properly to be the heritage of all Baltimore County Children. The arrangement and amount of detail will, in each instance, be determined by the background of concrete experi ence which can be made available to the children. It is desired here to express appreciation to those principals, grammar grade teachers and their children who have contributed both data and illustrations from time to time, and to that in numerable host of parents and friends who have answered the queries of children from day to day with such unfailing courtesy.
