Excerpt from Elements of Science: Designed for Use in Grammar and Primary Schools It has been the aim of the author to indite the work in plain and simple language, such as most children can understand: at the same time childish language has been avoided, the practice of using such being silly in a teacher, and degrading to a child. Great care has been bestowed in framing both ques tion and answer, making the question as pithy as pos sible, and never giving Yes or No as an answer, such answers being of little practical use.

Excerpt from Physics for Grammar Schools This book is the result of several years' use of'the experimental method in teaching physics to boys under thirteen years of age. It considers subjects which are full of interest, and it compels the student to do work, to observe carefully, and to write an accurate account of his observations. In the case of every student it is found to awaken dormant energy and to arouse enthusiasm. After a lapse of three or four years, when the student begins the more earnest work of preparing for college science examinations, he finds himself acquainted with many fundamental facts and ready to advance rapidly. The book, although preliminary, follows the method indicated in the requirements for admission to Harvard and Columbia Universities, and contains only such experiments as have been found by the writer to be serviceable.
