Three statements that are correct about the Pendleton Act are;

  • Most Gilded Age presidents supported its goals.
  • It required people to pass a test proving their competence.
  • It is an early example of government reform.

The Pendleton Act was passed in January 1883 when a young job seeker killed President James A. Garfield.

Prior to this time, jobs were given based on familiarity and friendship with people. It was called the "spoils system". This left a lot of deserving people jobless.

This Act ensured that candidates were given jobs based on merit. They were to take competitive exams from which the best candidates were chosen and employed.

It is a form of the reform movement and was pushed by President Chester A. Authur who succeeded Garfield. Presidents that succeeded Chester improved on the Pendleton Act.

In the story the exercise what might it mean that Kevin feels caught between two diferent fathers
ch4aika [34]

The word father in the story has two meanings. First, it implies the love and protection of his biological father. Kevin’s father is a cheerful man who is always willing to help his son and provides a warm and loving home. Kevin’s teacher, on the other hand, is a cold man who ridicules Kevin. The author uses these two “fathers” to develop the theme of fatherly love in the story. Father Waldo represents discipline, restrictions, and strict social hierarchy. At school Kevin is encouraged to be ashamed of his father because of his lack of education and job as a barman. Ironically it’s his father and family who encourage him to value his education:

“We never got the chance,” his mother would say to him. “It wouldn’t have done me much good but your father could have bettered himself. He’d be teaching or something now instead of serving behind a bar. He could stand up with the best of them.”

Thus the author is setting up a choice for Kevin to make. He can choose to reject his roots and embrace the social order of the school or cling to his place as a member of the family. Kevin makes his choice in the end, when he lies to his father to protect him from the shame of not having the correct answers.
