Extract

The paper I have ventured to lay before the Association on this occasion very likely needs an apology. The questions it raises have none of the interest that attaches to questions in pure scholarship: they are simply practical questions in pedagogy, and must be answered in the light of experience. Besides, as they concern chiefly the course at school, they may seem even mis-addressed when proposed to a body of college professors.
