Présentation de l'éditeur

It is undoubtedly true that many pupils, who can solve with ease even the difl cult problems given in their text-books, fail in the solution of simple business problems stated in business terms and offering no special key, by position or otherwise, to the particular case or principle involved in their solution. Pure business problems contain such varying cases and subjects as to admit of solution only through a thorough drS fknowledge of general principles, and by continual drill in practical work. Furthermore, to secure the best results, the arithmetic work must be co-ordinated as far as possible with business practice, bookkeeping, commercial law, etc. Only thus can pupils learn to how great an extent the general principles of percentage and higher arithmetic underlie and form the basis of nearly all business calculations. The problem, therefore, of how best to drill and review pupils in commercial and higher arithmetic is one that still proves, to many a teacher, exceedingly difficult of solution. The object of the arithmetic course is to secure careful analysis, logical reasoning, proper expression, oral and written, object of of results obtained, together with accuracy and rapidan A rltbineity in calculations, in general, to train the pupil to tic Course. interpret and express a business transaction in mathematical terms. In order to secure such results as are desired, it is necessary to give much mental work for training in analysis and expression and for facility in calculating. This work permits the teacher to study the mental processes of his pupils, correct errors, and strengthen weak points. The course must include Method of such general instruction as will correlate arithmetic Teaching in with business. Pupils must personate parties to aG eneral transaction, must treat general problems exhaustively, viewing them under all conditions and preparing
