We believe that thiqrapplieF equally to all parts of the United States rod that the chief c tow will be found it the absurd system pursued in teachire this particular branch.

During the i wbole*school 1 life 0., a pupil it is impossible that he_ could b. able to commit to memory all the d:fficul' words in the language at -the 'rate of -went: or twenty-fire words per day, an.' even when so committed, it is not oftot that they can be retained. Nor is it ne eessary that they should be, for, as al clue,' ion should have some practical pur ! o se, it is absurd to force a child to lean ' to spell words which 1:e will never use.
