Strana 191 - Words of one syllable or words accented on the last syllable, ending in a single consonant preceded by a single vowel, double the final consonant when adding a suffix beginning with a vowel.
Strana 51 - And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like a snail Unwillingly to school.
Strana 217 - Hewett's book contains nothing so good as this, but it does contain a short passage on an entirely different subject which deserves quotation ; for it presents a question now in the fore-front of all educational discussion. It is as follows : " Teaching can never become a profession in the same strict sense as law or medicine, so long as the majority of our schools are in session but for a few months in the year, and pay such small wages to the teacher ; nor so long as the oversight of the work is...

Strana 67 - Conscience. — Conscience makes us feel that we ought to do what we think is right, and to let alone what we think is wrong.
Strana 45 - ... studies give useful information, and all studies can be so pursued as to aid in the development of mental power. And however valuable the knowledge gained, the growth of power should be the chief aim of all our school work.1 2. Any power under the control of the will may be cultivated, or trained.* 3. The powers are trained in one way, and in one way only; viz., by wise use.3 4. Any power of the mind grows strong by the activity of that power against appropriate resistance.4 5. The several powers...
Strana 150 - Love is not an end in itself, it is the means to an end, and only one means at that, albeit perhaps the most important.
