Excerpt from Grammar School Book This Grammar School Arithmetic is noteworthy for the topics which it omits, as well as for the new topics which it introduces. A dominant fea ture is the emphasis upon vocational problems. These problems are of wide range, drawn from life on a farm, in the home, in the carpenter's shop, the manufacturing establishment, and the clerk's office in the city. It is hoped that these vocational problems will be of genuine value to the pupil after he leaves the school and enters into one or another of the various fields of activity.

Excerpt from English Grammar for Common Schools Grammar should be taught inductively. Pupils should be led, first, in the light of their own experience, to study the simple facts of language, and then to investigate the more difficult matters of construction and inflection until they arrive at the general laws' which govern its structure. In other words, pupils should be helped to help themselves. And yet it is next to impossible to present inductive lessons throughout a text-book. Lessons must be prepared for classes of pupils; and no one but the teacher can know to What extent each child needs illustrative exercises, or when he is prepared to take the next step. This book is prepared on a plan somewhat different from that followed in most Grammars for schools. There are certain facts of grammar which must be learned before the mastery of other facts becomes possible. But although it is necessary, for example, to know something of the nature of nouns and verbs before beginning to analyze a sentence.

Excerpt from The Modern Grammar-School Reader (Illustrated) The elements of good reading are found in these principles, and every teacher is earnestly recommended to make them subjects of special attention. Let the drill on the elementary sounds be so thorough that every pupil can utter each sound distinctly, and can give the letter and mark which represent it. The work on emphasis, inflection, etc., is only suggestive. Only enough exor cises are given on these subjects to furnish a brief exposition of the principles, and it is the business of the teacher to see that the pupil makes an application of these principles in the daily recita tion.

Excerpt from New American History for Grammar Schools: In Three Parts, I. From the Old World to the New; II. The Birth of the Nation; III. The Nation's Life and Progress But you must remember that so great a thing as the discovery of a new world was not accomplished by one man alone, nor was it accomplished in the single day when Columbus first saw land after his long voyage. Sometimes we' think of it as if a great curtain had been rolled away from before the eyes of Columbus, disclosing the whole continent of America; so that he had only to go home and tell the king of Spain that the New World was discovered. This is a very wrong idea. We must look back many years before the time of Columbus to find the beginning of the great work, and we must study on to a time many years after his death before we can say that Europe had really found America. Years of toil, great sums of money, the suffering and death of many brave men, were necessary before the work was done. And even then it took centuries more to find What the new continent was like, to settle it with white people, and to make it useful to the world.

Excerpt from Studies in English Grammar: A Comprehensive Course for Grammar Schools, High Schools and Academies IN the preparation of this book, the essential features of Welsh's Lessons in English Grammar have been retained. Many chapters have been rewritten, others enlarged, and the entire work has been recast and rearranged. Two points have been kept prominently in view: (1) What the boy or girl of average ability knows of the use of our language before beginning the systematic study of its facts, and the laws and usages of its structure; (2) What amount of information such an one ought to possess of our language after having studied it intelligently for the length of time usually devoted to it in the graded and ungraded schools of the country. It is, therefore, assumed that they actually know some -thing concerning the language they speak and write, and that they are capable of learning a great deal more if they have an opportunity. The sentence is the unit of thought; its elements are words, phrases, and clauses. These taken separately are pieces of sentences. When properly put together, they are the vehicles of thought.
