Delving Into History Important in Its Results on Every-Day Problems By DR. J. H. ROBINSON, President American Historical Association. Historical research is coming to be something useful to apply to ev ery day life and to the doings of politicians. Therein is the purpose of the $1,000,000 which the association plans to raise for historical re- search. The real significance of history is a new way of seeing how, things really are by following the process by which they have come about. Our churches, schools, senates, courts, diplomats and the workings of our business system must be explained by a knowledge of their coming about. As time goes on the fund would not be applied exclusively, perhaps not even chiefly, to historical research in the narrower sense of accumu- lating new information, A fuller knowledge of the past doings of politicians would tend to make our oversight of them more exacting.
