Abstract
THE young graduate who is taking up his duties in a school will be grateful to the author for the information provided in this book, and even the experienced teacher will find something useful in it. Not all the recommendations will meet with approval, and a good deal of space is taken up by statistical information which will rapidly become obsolete. The author's recommendation that the young teacher should discard his university lecture notes and rely on elementary textbooks for his material is one which should not be followed, since in this way he is likely to use a good deal of old-fashioned and obsolete material which is perpetuated in many books.
