The 81 point to he made in this discussion
is tina. the stud, Of arithmetic may be made
And essential help in other branches taught
in our schools. The lessons Of arithmetic
are both logical and analytical. We under
stand the whole when We clearly see its
parts, and i, must necessarily be sound ana
legitimate reasoning that explains the whole
from its parts. l fully believe tina, this same
analytical mode Of teaching can be followed
in nearly or all Of our school studies. A
distinguished teacher has said tina. the
study that could not DO taught analyticslly
was aos worth the teaching" lie may have
stated his belief too strongly, still i, points a
fact. Why may we no, regard grammar or
language as = kind Of absolute and cxnc
science! Our language is made cur
ren, among US by the best OF names, and We
Use and teach it doubling scarcely less Of its
correctness than we do concerning a mashc-
NAUTICAL truth. II The pupil is to clearly un-
derstand the construction Of a sentence, how
can he better do so than by resolving the
sentence into its primary parts' Is i, not pre-
in using correct language We should
be able 70 give a reason for 50 doing than
4 reason can only be given
when one is able to a~nalyze his words as
well as his thoughts. The school will meet
is highes; success when teacher aud
pupil are anxious to approximate at least 10
he ane exac,ness in all studies Is in the
study Of which We have written. !
