trust that 1 hates made it plain
that arithmetic is utilizable iia our publics
schools a& as meals, of mental training',
but not as a practical acquirement for
after life,
Oar inspectors,, above mentioned, ap-
parently agree wittR.atellayer. In their
course of study for the public schools
for the county of Unroll, they frequently
admonish the teachers to melte the
school work practical. Under the bead-
iug, ••Arithmetic," they say, "Teachers
should bear in grind that the majority
of their pupils will become farmers, I
mechanics, or (lerks, and consequently I
Rate -
the work in aria. inetie should be very
practical'' That, is safely whet Rate-
payer wants. But, let us go a little!
farther. They tell us that the lirst class
should be taught the meaning of con-
crate, abstract, unit, addenda, even nit f
her and odd number. What business
roan in the town of Wingham ever has i
had ogeation to use these terms in con-
nection with his mathematical calcul-
ations ? They tell uta. again to teach
/Ionian rotation up to 6,0tl0. No one but
a "roamun" ever finds thatRomau num-
erals are necessary in Wetness. 'Phis
the'°praetical" arithmetio they wish the:
teachers to tease. Here aro a few "prase-,
tied" probleals ('wiled from the pro.
