the language of the book presents
itself to their minds and is given at
once. The n who is usually slow
to answer understands the nrinciple
often better than the quick one and
as soon as he hears the question the
principle suggests itself to his mind
but he then has to frame his answer
into words before he can give it in
telligibly. Which of these under
stands the subject best, and which
should have the higher grade? In
m oral contest the slower one would
get a very low grade, while in a writ
ten examination each will get that to

that frequently the slower one
really understands il best. Then
you must agree that Il is but right to
give him a fair chance to tell what he
knows which can only be done in a
written examination. These exami-
nations are not only telling how the
work is done, but they are doing the
work itself. Often answers are ac-
when given orally that if
written just as the pupil understands
them would be found to be incorrect.
Often / have accepted answers in
class recitation as correct and after
wards have the pupils to write the
answers on the board and err
rors were at once apparent. When
answer is on paper you have it
