Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
Not long ago there appeared in the newspapers an Associated Press photograph of a happily smiling boy holding in front of him a huge loving-cup. It was a pleasing picture because it looked genuine. The boy was straightforwardly posing to be photographed, not taking part in what Al Smith called "baloney," a picture ostensibly showing the actual bestowal of an award, but artificially posed afterward, with people looking a little foolish because this was not the real thing, and most people are not good actors.

Important Insights Into The Reading Of Social Studies Text, James A. Wright
Important Insights Into The Reading Of Social Studies Text, James A. Wright
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
In a broad sense, the world is a stage and social studies is the recorded drama of man's struggle for survival in an ever-changing environment. Man's own implacable desire to improve continuously his situation provides the plot, or underlying theme. The social studies text defines people's basic needs and the activities through which they meet their needs. It describes the antagonistic forces affecting human behavior. Only the guidance of an expert teacher makes it possible for a young reader to interpret and appreciate the inherent drama of social studies.

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
When someone who has been astonishingly successful, whether in building an immense fortune or in some other form of activity, tells us the "secret" of his success, we may do well to take what he says with a grain of salt. It is not that he does not mean to tell the truth; no doubt he does. He may, however, have been guided by a sure instinct for the right thing to do, without really under standing why. When he attempts to explain it, his guess may be quite mistaken.
