Abstract
MR. FRANKLIN is known on both sides of the Atlantic as the author of useful scientific textbooks, and it is not surprising to find him insisting in his very readable essays upon the value and importance of a training in scientific method in a complete system of education. He quotes Nietzsche as saying: “The time will come when men will think of nothing but education”; it may be hoped that the time will soon be reached when in this country, in addition to thinking about it, people come to believe in it enough to pay sufficient for it to secure competent educators for the next generation.
