Présentation de l'éditeur

The Teachers College Record for March, 1903, contained an article on Mathematics in the Elementary School by the authors colleague Professor Mc Murry and himself. This number, however, has long since been out of print, and as a result of this fact it was thought best in the autumn of 1908 to prepare a new number of the.R ecord on The Teaching of A rithmetic. This was done by the author, and the article appeared in January, 1909. Although it was thought that the unusually large edition was sufficient for all demands for some years to come, it was exhausted within a few weeks, and it became necessary to print the article in book form. In spite of the fact that the work was originally written in a popular style, to the end that it might be read by those who have no more interest in mathematics than in the various other subjects of the curriculum, it has been thought best to make but a few changes in arranging for its publication in the present form. Intended as it is for those who are teaching or supervising the work in arithmetic in the elementary schools, it would hardly serve its purpose if it departed widely from the practical and entered the domain of pure theory. As between influencing the few or the many on a topic of such general interest it has been thought better to adopt the latter course, and to prepare a book that might have place in educational reading circles generally and serve as a basis for the work in the class-room for the training of teachers.
