About this book

The Hoosiers is by Meredith Nicholson, and Chapter IV is headed An Experiment in Socialism. The text says that New Harmony, the scene of Robert Owen's experiment in socialism, lies in Posey County, in the far southwestern corner of Indiana. The text says all children between two and twelve were placed in a separate house, and clothed, lodged, and educated at the public expense.

A band was organized to provide music, and Tuesday evenings were set apart for balls and Friday evenings for concerts. The text says a new constitution was adopted February 5, after careful consideration in town meetings, and that it provided for community of property and business and social coöperation. The text names Caleb Mills as a native of New Hampshire (1806) and a graduate of Dartmouth (1828) and of Andover Theological Seminary (1833).
