The New Elementary Arithmetic ofT heS tandard Series of Mathematics is the resnlt of the experience of a supervisor of primary schools in a leading American city. Finding it quite impossible to secnre satisfactory results by the use of such elementary arithmetics as were available she began the experiment of supplying supplementary material. An effort was made to prepare problems that should be in the highest degree practical that should develop the subject systematically, and that should appeal constantly to the childs ability to think. The accumulations of several years have been carefully re-examined, re-arranged, and supplemented, and are now presented to the public for its candid consideration. Kot the least valuable feature of this book is the caref al gradation of the examples, securing thereby a natural and logical development of number work. Ko space is occupied with the presentation of theory, that side of the subject being left to the succeeding book. The first thoughts are what and how, these so presented that the processes shall be easily comprehended and mastered. Subsequently, the why may be intelligently considered and readily understood. The present edition ofT heN ewE lementary Arithmetic will be found to differ from the earlier edition principally in an increase in the amount of drill work given upon the fundamental operations. This change, it is believed, recognizes a tendency of present-day arithmetic work which has the approval of the best authorities.
