References

page 197 note 1 It seems a mistake to set a limit to the improvement possible in the teaching of one's own subject or any other. Why, for instance, should it be assumed (p. 22) that ‘few boys will learn at school to talk fluent French and German’?

page 199 note 1 It should be added that the University Council has given liberal support to Roman excavations in Yorkshire, and has taken much interest in the local branch of the Classical Association.
