Side 52 - In every quarter of the world the perseverance and enterprise of the Germans are making themselves felt. In the actual production of commodities we have now few, if any advantages over them; and in a knowledge of the markets of the world, a desire to accommodate themselves to local tastes and idiosyncrasies, a determination to obtain a footing wherever they can, i,*,2. and a tenacity in maintaining it, they appear to be gaining ground on us.
Side 89 - I allow well ; so that he be such a one that hath the language, and hath been in the country before ; whereby he may be able to tell them what things are worthy to be seen in the country where they...
Side 135 - People often talk and write as if school-time should be utilized for teaching those things which a child is not likely to care to learn in after-life ; whereas the real aim of school education should be to create a desire to continue in after-life the pursuit of the knowledge and the skill acquired in school.

For example: a knowledge of classical antiquity is scientific when the remains of classical antiquity are correctly studied in the original languages.
Side 56 - Series (55). what is less flattering to us, the reason of the preference shown for them. It appears that 35 per cent, of the firms replying to the circular employ foreign clerks, and that less than one per cent, of English clerks are able to correspond in any foreign language. From several of the answers received, it also appears that preference is given to foreigners on account of their generally superior education, and of their special qualifications for commercial work. According to many of the...
Side 255 - Indeed, it may be rather said that the lectures will form a commentary on the practical work than that the practical work will serve only to illustrate the lectures. It must be remembered, in considering this difference of method, that the main purpose of the teaching to be given in this institution is not to make scientific men, nor to train scientists, as the Americans call them, but to educate technikers, as the Germans say ; to explain to those preparing for industrial work, or already engaged...
