Excerpt from Number Applications

The first part is intended to cover the work of the first school year. It need not be in the hands Of the pupils, but will serve as a guide to the teacher in planning oral lessons. The second part, published for pupils' use as a separate volume, covers the work of the second or third school year.

The course is so arranged that it can be adapted readily to local conditions, such as the maturity of the pupils, length of the school year, or the requirements of the course of study.

Under favorable conditions, the series may be finished at least one year earlier than the arithmetics of the older type. This is made possible by the elimination of obsolete and useless material, and by careful gradation.

The series is the outcome of long experience in teaching and supervision. In preparing it the authors have aimed first of all to give the pupil a knowledge Of the essentials Of the sub ject and independent power of application without consuming an undue portion of his time or that of his teacher. They realize that other subjects in the curriculum, rich in educative value, have too commonly failed to receive their fair share of attention on account of the excessive demands of arithmetic.
