Columbus Day National Public School Celebration Plan
Francis Bellamy outlines a uniform national Columbus Day programme for all schools and communities. Morning school ceremonies emphasize flag salutes, an original ode, an address, and a closing song, with possible additional features. Afternoon civic events should center on the public school idea, including a public school review and a mass meeting, to highlight education as the foundation of American liberty and citizenship.

Portraits of Columbus and the 400th anniversary
The piece notes that no single likeness of Columbus is definitive and surveys early portraits by Giovio, De Bry, and Jomard, highlighting discrepancies with contemporary descriptions. It argues to judge Columbus by deeds, not portraits, and ends with a note on 216,830 US school houses only 3.5 percent in cities, urging city schools to participate in Columbus Day celebrations.
