Présentation de l'éditeur

This book is designed to be a practical working manual for the assistance of the teacher as well as the pupil. The author has sought to present the subject in an easy, natural, and progressive way, and, as far as possible, to avoid repetition; yet, by a judicious selection of graded sentences and carefully arranged questions for review, to keep before the mind of the learner what he has already learned. I ndeed, in their gradation, the sentences themselves are a concrete presentation of the whole subject. The questions at the end of the lessons are so framed as to require the pupil, after studjring the text carefully, to formulate his own answers. This fact will often make it necessary for the teacher to examine a lesson with the class before assigning it to be learned. The theory of the book is the gradual development of the sentence; the method, inductive. Beginning with the simplest form of the sentence, as Birds fly, only one new element is added in any single lesson; so that a thorough mastery of each lesson ought to result. The author has endeavored to avoid an excess of languagework on the one hand, and too much formal parsing and analysis on the other. Analysis and synthesis are carried along together, in due proportion and relation. By this method of treatment, the pupil acquires not only a knowledge of the structure of the sentence, but also the power to use language.
