The Public Schools Are Supported Entirely, In Most Communities, By Public Funds-funds Exacted Not Only From Parents, Nor Alone From Those Who Hold Particular Religious Views, Nor Indeed From Those Who Subscribe To Any Creed At All.

No Longer Is The Female Destined Solely For The Home And The Rearing Of The Family And Only The Male For The Marketplace And The World Of Ideas.

We Current Justices Read The Constitution In The Only Way That We Can: As 20th-century Americans.
