29630The consequence is that, from one end of the civilized world to the other, resounds the cry,''What shall we do with our boys?''
29630Then, why stuff artisans, domestic servants, and farm labourers with common denominators and the rules of syntax?
29630Upon what grounds is such an absurd deduction founded?
29630What happens next?
29630What has the average academically- trained man to offer?
29630What is the inevitable result?
29630What is, after all, stupidity or dulness in a schoolboy?
29630What is, after all, the main object of education?
29630What makes the wind blow?
29630Who are the men to whom the administration of all important departments of Government is entrusted, and how are they selected?
29630Why does all this anxiety about the child''s individuality disappear the moment its intelligence begins to dawn?
29630Why is it that ninety- nine persons out of a hundred lose this faculty in the earliest period of their childhood?
29630Why should an individual know more than it is useful and convenient for him to know?
29630Why should every educated man be like the other?
29630Will it be a great author, or a Bishop, or a Lord Chancellor?
10674A fifth question of a mechanical nature is, Which is preferable, bound or loose- leaf note- books?
10674Ask yourself frequently,"Is that true?"
10674Ask yourself, when beginning a printed discussion, What am I looking for?
10674Ask yourself,_ why_ is this so?
10674CHAPTER XIII MENTAL SECOND- WIND Did you ever engage in any exhausting physical work for a long period of time?
10674Can we facilitate recall by any other means than by faithful and intelligent impressions?
10674Can you find elements of worth in this method, which will warrant you in adopting it, at least, in part?
10674Can you see it all the time?
10674Can you see the headlines of the sections and the paragraphs?
10674How are the ideas being modified during the intervals between impressions?
10674How can we explain this distressing blank?
10674How long a time do you estimate will be required for the formation of the new habit?
10674How many times a minute does it come and go?"
10674In the face of these possibilities is there anything that will guide us in distributing the repetitions?
10674Now what was the matter?
10674One question that frequently arises concerning works of the imagination is, What is their source?
10674Or shall you distribute them among several sittings?
10674Shall you make these thirty repetitions at one sitting?
10674Since we are endowed with the energy requisite for such efficient work, the obvious question is, why do we not more frequently use it?
10674The question before us, then, is, What is the nature of these changes?
10674The question then arises, what is the most effective distribution?
10674Under such circumstances how could one expect to retain and recall the name?
10674What concrete steps will you take in order to accommodate your study to the fluctuations of attention?
10674What do you regard as the causes?
10674What if her eyes were there, they in her head?
10674What is the author going to talk about?
10674What light through yonder window breaks?
10674What specific steps will you take to eliminate them; to ignore the unavoidable ones?
10674Why do the masses so easily fall victims to doubtful reforms in national and municipal policies?
31097Of this thing be certain: Wouldst thou plant for eternity? 31097 Then why does he like to feel the ball in his hand?"
31097What would he have to do?
31097Where and how is he to plane?
31097Which brick did it?
31097Why does he like to play ball?
31097Why not?
31097Would he like to play ball with the scissors?
31097Can they think of anything; shall we not try to make something?
31097Do they remember which one of their playthings is like the face of the cube; do they remember cutting clay tablets from the clay blocks?
31097FROEBEL''S FIRST GIFT"I wish to find the right forms for awakening the higher senses of the child: what symbol does my ball offer to him?
31097His own interest has in consequence gradually died out, and when once the fire is cold, who shall light it again?
31097How, then, does this change come about?
31097Is it not true that such work requires considerable effort from the kindergartner to make it interesting to the child?
31097Let them sing in the ascending and descending scales:-- Many pretty forms I see, Which one seems the best to me?
31097They can help doing things, can they not?
31097They really could not help it; now, how about seven little boys or girls?
31097We may take, perhaps, the red[14] ball, and, holding it high in the air, ask,"Who has a ball exactly like mine?
31097What are then the objections to the point as illustrated in bean, coffee- berry, seed, and wooden lentil?
31097When he asks,"What makes them do so?"
31097Wouldst thou plant for year and day?
29343Other girls,you say,"bring home prizes: our brothers bring home prizes; or at any rate have the chance of doing so-- why do n''t we?"
29343Purity, truth, and love, Are they such common things? 29343 A visitor asked,Did Mr. Robbins found a benevolent institution?"
29343All these are among the religious influences; and what is their aim and object?
29343And now, seeing these things are so, what ought to be the attitude of educated girls and women towards pleasures, the usual pleasures of society?
29343And why?
29343And yet is there not a type of educated woman which we do not wholly admire?
29343Because you are better than others?
29343But are we therefore to rest and be thankful in the complacent belief that we have now at length attained perfection, at least in our High Schools?
29343But how is it for girls when they leave school?
29343But when school life ends, what will become of this discovery that you have made?
29343But you are beginning to ask-- Is all this religion?
29343Did you ever read Kingsley''s"Nausicaa in London"?
29343Did you ever think for what reason you should have had such a splendid time of it in your lives?
29343Do you all know who Nausicaa was?
29343How is sago made?
29343How is this?
29343How shall I describe it?
29343How should we use them in our turn to better those who come after us?
29343In the crusade against the lower type of education that prevailed twenty years ago, and still exists, who are the most important agents?
29343Is it giving you greater delicacy of touch?
29343Is it necessary to say anything to you about the value of education?
29343Is it opening new channels for influences, streaming in on you or streaming out from you?
29343May I venture to say to a Bath public that it is worth while to have first- rate buildings for educational purposes?
29343Now, why is this?
29343The first was miscellaneous: What is lightning?
29343What are you yourselves at home, in society, with parents, brothers, sisters, children, friends, schoolfellows, servants?
29343What is it that we should try and extract from them for ourselves?
29343What is religion, that in the eyes of so many clever and intelligent and well- educated young people it should be thought dull?
29343What were the Sicilian Vespers, the properties of the atmosphere, the length of the Mississippi, and the Pelagian heresy?
29343What were the mistresses?
29343but_ what_ can one do?
16434Good,said he,"then you will leave your own educational necessities and your own wants out of the question?"
16434( Will HE-- meaning, will YOU, John or Thomas-- come with me?
16434( Will THEY-- meaning, will YOU-- come with me?).
16434( Wilt thou come with me?
16434); whereas to a grown person the proper form would be,_ Wollen Sie mit mir kommen_?
16434Above all, what is the purpose of education?"
16434After Kindergarten, what?
16434But where was I to find the money necessary for such a journey?
16434By what, at the same period of your life, was this need most fully met, or what did you then most desire for this purpose?"
16434Canst thou do work in architecture worthy of a man''s life?
16434Canst thou use it to the culture and the ennoblement of mankind?"
16434Does not the boy take pleasure in building, and what else are the earliest fixed forms of Nature but built- up forms?
16434For did not those gifts of flowers and plants express appreciation and acknowledgment of the love of parents and teacher?
16434For every one said"German?
16434HOPKINS, Louisa P. How Shall My Child be Taught?
16434How could I at that age, and in my position?
16434How could my inner nature have expressed itself more beautifully in words?
16434How should people know much of him as yet?
16434I continued,"Then perhaps you can tell me whether Christ was a Catholic or a Protestant?"
16434I had now to be prepared for some business calling, and the question was raised, for which?
16434I soon began seriously to ask myself, therefore:--"How is this?
16434If it was folly to talk about educating persons as Germans, what was it to talk about educating them as men?
16434In answering the question,"What is the purpose of education?"
16434Now who wants to be, or who cares to suffer another to be, a free- thinking, independent man?
16434Of what use to mankind is the old man''s experience and the greybeard''s wisdom when they sink into the grave with their possessors?
16434Oh, why is it that man knows so ill and prizes so little the blessings that he possesses for the first time?
16434Ought it to be so for every child, for every youth?
16434Ought this always to be so?
16434Our sentence would run in this case,_ Will Er mit mir kommen_?
16434So spake experienced shrewdness, and what had I to set against it?
16434The demand of my pupils set me upon the following question:"What did you do as a boy?
16434Then came the questions,"What is elementary education?
16434They sowed and reaped not; and yet to possess the privilege of sowing, was it not equivalent in itself to reaping a very great reward?
16434This was all well enough when universal human interests were concerned, but how about matters of instruction?
16434Thus, if one met a child in the street, one might say,_ Willst Du mit mir kommen_?
16434Were they not the outcome of the characteristic lovingness and the enthusiastic thankfulness of childhood?
16434What happened to you to satisfy that need of yours for something to do and to express?
16434What would these worthy people have said, had I asked them to train themselves to become thorough men?
16434When I proposed for my wife, my future father- in- law and mother- in- law[127] said,"You surely will not remain longer in Keilhau?"
16434Why is this?
16434and of what value are the educational methods advocated by Pestalozzi?

12864But if they, capricious through long indulgence, did not choose to get up, what then?
12864But who are those three by- standers, that have such an air of submission and awe in their countenances?
12864But yearneth not thy laboring heart, O Tom, For those dear hours of simple_ Freshmanhood_?

34938You know old Farmer Simpson out on the Plank Road?
34938''Why not?''
34938''Why,''he asks,''have they thus taken possession of the citadel?''
34938Ambassador Bryce was asked, two years ago, to deliver an address before Phi Beta Kappa at Harvard, and took for his subject"What is Progress?"
34938And the brother pathologist on the left side:"Well, and what shall we say of intestinal auto- intoxication?"
34938Are your blandishments more seductive in public than in private, and with other women''s husbands than your own?"
34938But what concern, her opponent asks, can women have with war, who contribute nothing to its dangers and hardships?
34938Could not each have made the same request to her husband at home?
34938Do you agree with me thus far?"
34938For reflect if women are not to have the education of men some other must be found for them, and what other can we propose?"
34938For reflect-- if women are not to have the education of men some other must be found for them, and what other can we propose?"
34938How is it actually?
34938How is it that America was discovered at least twice, probably oftener, before Columbus''time, and yet his was a real discovery?
34938How is it, indeed, that there are many discoveries and rediscoveries of the same principle in science?
34938Is it any wonder that the ordinary non- New- England American"gets hot under the collar"for his countrymen under such circumstances?
34938Is it any wonder that this breeds discontent?
34938Is it possible that he knew something of the physical, or let us rather say, the pathological dangers of the vice?
34938Is there anything that we know about them that will help us to account for them?
34938Now it is with regard to this period that it is fair to ask the question, What was the attitude of the Church toward education?
34938She puts the question, however, just as we have all seen it put by a modern actress,--''will this house agree to it?''
34938Stobaeus relates the story of a student who, having learned the first theorem, asked"but what shall I make by learning these things?"
34938The dear old Mother Superior, who had known me for many years, ventured to ask me afterwards,"Did you say that she was young?"
34938What about feminine education at the time of this great new awakening of educational purpose throughout Europe?
34938What is it that hath been done?
34938What is the reason for these waxings and wanings?
34938What is to be said, then, of a nation that erects public buildings that are to be merely useful?
34938What was the standard of admission to the medical schools, how many years of medical studies were required?
34938What will they not attempt if they win this victory?
34938What, then, must have been the hospital buildings of centuries ago?
34938Whence, then, comes the idea of progress?

34938{ 60}{ 61} THE FIRST MODERN UNIVERSITY{ 62}"What is it that hath been?
33860Were you not once schoolmaster at St. Peter''s in Basle?
33860What,replied he,"must I preach?"
33860A gentleman met us, and asked,"Where are you going?"
33860After Vespers one of them came and asked,"Whence do you come?"
33860And why should we call upon the Saints?"
33860As my godfather was not with me, he spoke to me:"What do you want, my child?"
33860Cadet Wolfgang continued,"Who are you?"
33860Gall?"
33860He answered,"What preacher would give way to me, and let me occupy his place?"
33860He asked"Whither?"
33860He said,"Do you think that he could be persuaded to come here to us?"
33860He then said,"What shall we do with our Baslers?"
33860However he soon came, quite drunk; told me to get up again, and asked whither I wished to go?
33860I answered,"Has then your princely Grace only one blessing?"
33860I asked,"Where have you read this story?"
33860I became angry and said,"Why heretic city?"
33860I went on,"Why is the Pope the head of the Christian Church?"
33860I:"And is no one here from Zurich?"
33860I:"And what does the letter contain?"
33860I:"Have they read the letter before the deputies and country people?"
33860I:"Is not that right?"
33860Is it not enough that I allow it you by night, or on a holiday, that you must also read while you twist?"
33860My old teacher Myconius asked me,"What is the news?
33860Next morning, as we were going over the Melifeld, Myconius said to me,"How did you like the education of those gentlemen yesterday?
33860On this the priest said,"What have you done in that heretic city?"
33860The Frenchman now asked,"When does our Professor come?"
33860The cadet Eglin, who sat at the top of the table, heard that, and asked,"What is the matter with you there?"
33860The cadet said,"What news in Zurich?"
33860Then I asked my comrades, the fags,"When shall we be in Meissen, that I may throw at the geese and kill them?"
33860Then I heard a brave man, who stood on an elevated place, call out aloud,"Where are our captains?
33860Then he said, smiling,"What is your name?"
33860Then he said,"Is that so?"
33860Thereupon I said,"That is not so, for they still celebrate Mass there; they have also pictures; why are they then heretics?"
33860Thereupon he also asked him who he was?
33860Thereupon he asked Myconius,"Dear sir, who are you?"
33860Thereupon he said,"How could that be true, then, that Christ met St. Peter outside the city of Rome, and was asked by him where he was going to?
33860Tucker said to me,"From whence are you?"
33860What then is the New Testament?"
33860When I had got something to eat; we went out together into a chamber, and Myconius said,"Where shall I now go to?
33860When however my mother saw me, she said,"How comes it that they have not invited you also?"
33860When we came into the room, cadet Wolfgang asked,"Whence do you come?"
33860and when he heard that I was a Swiss, he was surprised, together with Benzenauer, and said to me,"But are you really a Swiss?
33860has Ulrich Zuinglius been killed?"

33860is there then no one here to direct us what to do?"
33860who knows?
33860why do you sit there; stand up and walk?"
28501Can any one suggest a means of proving that there is some of each kind of soil in what we have here?
28501Can we improve on it?
28501Do you think there is more sand or more loam?
28501How many feet of fence will be required to enclose this plat?
28501How much will it cost to fence this garden at twelve cents a foot?
28501If the posts are set five feet apart, how many posts will be required?
28501If those having a smooth surface now were once rough, what has become of the particles which must have broken away?
28501In which soil did the plant appear?
28501Is the plan artistic in its arrangement?
28501Is there any waste space which we should utilize?
28501There are two rows of cross beams, and each beam is ten feet long; how many will be needed for the fence?
28501What is the area of a garden bed three feet by eleven feet? 28501 What is the circumference of a circular flower bed four feet in diameter?"
28501What would be the cost of this plat at one dollar and twenty- five cents a square foot?
28501Why are some smooth?
28501Why do you think there is more loam?
28501Can the accuracy of this statement be questioned?
28501Can there be any doubt that this boy was benefited?
28501How shall we determine this?"
28501Is there any wonder that this child lacked energy as a student?
28501Is this worth while?
28501Now, in spacing off, should we begin at the center or from opposite ends?
28501Some one might ask,"While garden work is being done, does not the work of the classroom suffer?"
28501The question may arise: Why begin weaving in the center of the loom?
28501The question was asked,"How can we determine the productive quality of soil?"
28501The question which naturally arose was,"How may this water be gotten rid of?"
28501The talk developed such questions as these:--"Is the plan before us a good one?"
28501This is the center or middle point of your paper.--Albert, what are you to find?"
28501Through the teacher''s questions--"Why are some rough?"
28501What do you think will happen when we stop stirring?"
28501What is the aim, and how can it be solved?
28501When he enters school, should he have only books?
28501Which should we do first, spade it up, or lay it off?
28501Why had we planted onion seed?
28501Why not as well use pumpkin seed and grains of corn-- the product of the garden?
28501Why?

852And supposing such questions answered, what is the relation of instruction, of knowledge, to virtue?
852And was not the new education an enemy to good citizenship, because it set up a rival standard to the established traditions of the community?
852But how is the knowledge of the final and permanent good to be achieved?
852But will this account apply in the case of the one in a neutral country who is thoughtfully following as best he can the progress of events?
852By an external compromise that crowds in so much of each?
852Can virtue, approved excellence in any line, be learned, they asked?
852Does it fit into his more direct acquaintance so as to increase its efficacy and deepen its meaning?
852Does it grow naturally out of some question with which the student is concerned?
852Does the question naturally suggest itself within some situation or personal experience?
852For how can there be a society really worth serving unless it is constituted of individuals of significant personal qualities?
852Given an egoistic consciousness, how can action which has regard for others take place?
852How about method from the standpoint of an individual who is dealing with subject matter?
852How are they to be adjusted?
852How can the interests of life and the studies which enforce them enrich the common experience of men instead of dividing men from one another?
852How could it be expected to undertake it when the undertaking meant its own destruction?
852How full and free is the interplay with other forms of association?
852How is it achieved?
852How is such a transition possible?
852How numerous and varied are the interests which are consciously shared?
852How shall it be full and varied without losing unity of spirit?
852How shall it be one and yet not narrow and monotonous in its unity?
852How shall the individual be rendered executive in his intelligence instead of at the cost of his intelligence?
852How shall we secure breadth of outlook without sacrificing efficiency of execution?
852How shall we secure the diversity of interests, without paying the price of isolation?
852How then are they communicated?
852If knowledge of methods used by others does not directly tell us what to do, or furnish ready- made models, how does it operate?
852Is change, becoming, development really possible and if so, how?
852Is he beckoning for help?
852Is he warning us of an explosion to be set off, against which we should guard ourselves?
852Is it the sort of trying that would arouse observation and engage experimentation outside of school?
852Is not this deplorable situation due to the fact that the doctrine is itself merely told?
852Or is it a mere serial aggregate of acts, first doing one thing and then another?
852Or is it an aloof thing, a problem only for the purposes of conveying instruction in some school topic?
852Or is it imposed from without, and is the pupil''s problem simply to meet the external requirement?
852Since in the past one has done one''s duty without having to face such a disagreeable circumstance, why not go on as one has been?
852Since it must apply anyhow, what is the use of noting details which do not count?
852The Greeks acutely raised the question: How can we learn?
852Through the senses, or by apprenticeship in some form of doing, or by reason that has undergone a preliminary logical discipline?
852Was not knowing, the activity of reason, the noblest attribute of man?
852Was not the only true, because the only moral, life gained through obedient habituation to the customary practices of the community?
852What do teachers imagine is happening to thought and emotion when the latter get no outlet in the things of immediate activity?
852What does it offer in comparison with, as balanced over against, some other possibility?
852What does this principle signify?
852What is learning?
852What is meant by calling a method intellectual?
852What is the link that spans the intervening centuries?
852What is there similar to the conditions of everyday life which will generate difficulties?
852What is to be said for it?
852What shared activity is there in learning from books about the discovery of America?
852What, then, is knowledge?
852Who, then, shall conduct education so that humanity may improve?
852Why an unequal measure for child and man?
852Why be in a hurry about getting ready for it?
852Why does a savage group perpetuate savagery, and a civilized group civilization?
852With respect to all of them, it set up a test: Where are the real objects from which these ideas and beliefs are received?
13548How can a man,says Carlyle,"without clear vision in his heart first of all, have any clear vision in the head?"
13548Tastes sweet the water with such specks of earth?
13548And again, how can all this wide range of activity be controlled?
13548And what are the things which, since I can not have everything, I must be content to let go?
13548Are we then to restrict the study of the classics to those who have a pretty taste for style?
13548Are we to recognise the right to be idle as well as the right to work?
13548But how much could he read?
13548But meanwhile, what is the little mind doing?
13548But of how many schools can this be said?
13548But what are we to put on the other side of the account?
13548But what have we done to fire the imagination of our boys and girls with the vision of our great and ancient nation, now struggling for its existence?
13548But when he was asked,"And of what do French school boys generally talk?"
13548Can we end with a definition of the happiness and well- being, which is the goal of education, as of all else that we try to do?
13548Do school games produce the man who regards games as the main business of life?
13548Does any one think that the Bishop''s slip was in fact due to want of scientific teaching at Marlborough?
13548Does experience of men accord with it at all?
13548Given that our demand succeeds, what consequences may we expect?
13548Has the average man much wiser guides or stronger sanctions now?
13548How are they to be kept going?
13548If the attitude of the teacher reflects the old question of the Latin Grammar"Why should I teach you letters?"
13548If we feel this as respects the internal economic life of our country, is it not true also of the international life of the world?
13548Is a much nobler appeal made to the children of England than was made to the children of Athens?
13548Is not this largely because attention has not been properly called to them?
13548Is there to be a kind of second Thellusson Act, directed against accumulations of leisure?
13548Is too much time given to the playing of games?
13548May not this be partly the fault of the lines which our education has followed?
13548Of the two kinds of disability which is the more grave?
13548Of what should the undifferentiated teaching consist?
13548The cause is not selfishness but ignorance and want of imagination; and what have we done to tap the sources of an intelligent patriotism?
13548What are the things which are best worth winning for their own sakes, and what price must I pay to win them?
13548What chance has a boy of enjoying an author when he knows him only as a task to be droned through, thirty lines at a time?
13548What have we taught them of Shakespeare and Milton, of Elizabeth and Cromwell, of Nelson and Wellington?
13548What idea of the New Testament does the average boy who leaves, say in the fifth form, carry away with him from his public school?
13548What judgments could he form?
13548What precisely is the complaint?
13548What virtues can we reasonably suppose to be developed by games?
13548What''s Hecuba to him, or he to Hecuba, That he should weep for her-- unless indeed he be a candidate for Responsions?
13548Where are the teeming populations of the West Indies, where the civilisations of Mexico or of Peru, where are the blackfellows of Australia?
13548Who can answer?
13548Who can withhold from them gratitude, honour, nay even reverence?
13548Who is going to teach, or look after, all these things?
13548Who will trouble about us scientific students then?
13548Why can we not also do something to encourage what old Hawtrey used so beautifully to call"the sweet pride of authorship"?
13548Why should not a similar standing Committee, consisting of representatives of the Chambers of Commerce of the country be also appointed?
10042Ca n''t I make something in wood like Boy does?
10042Do you know there''s nothing in this world that I''m not tired of?
10042Is it Bible story to- day or any_ kind_ of a story?
10042Must we talk about them before we take the flowers home?
10042Shall I go up to the nursery now?
10042Soak itcame at once, and"Could you get hot water?"
10042WHAT''S IN A NAME?
10042What was the good of that?
10042What would happen to the clay when it was put on the fire?
10042Which won?
10042Why, Jack,said another,"you''ve painted your cow green; did you ever see a green cow?"
10042''Have you done your work?''
10042''What a naughty piggy,''said Auntie,''and what next?''
10042And Browning?
10042And animals?
10042And is he wrong?
10042And the boy who said,"If I had done a thing, could God make it that I had n''t?"
10042And what would they do?
10042Auntie, can you smile?
10042BIBLIOGRAPHY INDEX PART I THE CHILD IN THE NURSERY AND KINDERGARTEN CHAPTER I"WHAT''S IN A NAME?"
10042Because children love babies, they love"Where did you come from, baby dear?"
10042But why is it that children crave for stories?
10042Cecil said,"But what is the name of the road?"
10042Children are apt of course to make startling remarks, but it is only the teacher who is startled by:"Was all this before God''s birthday?"
10042Do we lose the vision because we are not bold enough to take that enjoyment as our chief end?
10042He does not necessarily mean to tease, only why should he watch an animal that does nothing?
10042He is interested in things for longer and asks for stories, music and rhymes, and what does this mean?
10042How are these cravings usually satisfied in the early stages of history teaching of to- day?
10042How can we best aid development into the wholeness or healthiness and the scope of sanity and wisdom?
10042How can we he sure that the surroundings we provide and the activities we encourage are in accord with children''s needs?
10042How did he know that she had sat in his chair?
10042How then can this play spirit be maintained side by side with work?
10042How then can we secure for him that the new experiences presented to him in school will be in line with the old?
10042How, then, can we provide for their experience of this side of life?
10042I said,"Which would you rather be, the Countess who put the crown on the King''s head, or the brother who ran away?"
10042In its answer to the question"What is the chief end of man?"
10042Is he not in truth collecting material for his future life building?"
10042O man, who roamest through garden and field, through meadow and grove, why dost thou close thy mind to the silent teaching of nature?
10042Often after Robinson Crusoe there has been a direct question,"How did Robinson Crusoe know how to make his things; had any one taught him?
10042One child said with pathos one day,"May we spell as we like to- day, for I''ve got such a lot to say?"
10042Rather did he hold with Confucius, whose answer to the question of a disciple,"How shall I convert the world?"
10042The fairies accomplish wonders, again why not?
10042The first question of the summer term was,"What''s Mr. Bird going to do this term?"
10042The majority of the class, however, seemed to feel with another who asked,"Why did n''t he promise while the Danes were there?
10042The question"Is it true?"
10042Traherne says in the seventeenth century:--"Will you see the infancy of this sublime and celestial greatness?
10042We also watched a boy cleaning the station windows, and Dorothy said,''Miss Beer, is n''t it wonderful that you can see through glass?''
10042What do such terms as home, dinner, bed, bath, birth, death, country, mean to him?
10042What does he do?
10042What is the real aim of what we call Nature- lessons, Nature- teaching, Nature- work?
10042What is the unconscious need that is expressed in this craving, why is this desire so deeply implanted by Nature?
10042What made these long- ago people think of using their fire to cook food?
10042What store of experiences does a child from such a neighbourhood bring to school, to be assimilated with the new experiences provided there?
10042What was the reason for this binding of things together?
10042What would these people think of the cloth?
10042When shall I make my little ship?
10042Who made the things he had seen; who made the very first and how did he know?"
18698Columbus was an----?
18698He_ done_ it;"Has the bell_ rang_?"
18698No, he was an It----?
18698A teacher asked a class in elementary physiology,"What measures would you take to resuscitate a person asphyxiated with carbon dioxide?"
18698And what is the effect of poor oxidization on physical vitality?
18698Another teacher asked the following questions: Why must the body have air to breathe?
18698But how is the oxygen carried to every part of the body and brought into contact with the tissues?
18698Have you ever seen a stretch of shore like this one?
18698How do the base and altitude of the triangles compare with the base and altitude of the rectangle?
18698How do the two triangles compare in area?
18698How does air entering the lungs differ from air leaving them?
18698How is the oxygen carried by the blood?
18698How many cubic inches of air will the lungs contain?
18698How many times do we naturally breathe in a minute?
18698How much better such questions as these:-- When did the Pilgrims first sight land?
18698How much of this can not be expelled by breathing out?
18698How shall we find its area?
18698Nor is it enough to inquire,"How many understand this lesson?"
18698Now I draw a line diagonally across the rectangle; how many figures are there?
18698Of what use is oxygen in the body?
18698On a morning late in November, what did the Pilgrims do?
18698On mental vitality?
18698On the shore of Plymouth harbor what is there lying?
18698Suppose we breathe air that contains too little oxygen, what will be the effect on the corpuscles?
18698The teacher asks,"Where is Chicago?"
18698The teacher should know just what answer he desires, and then ask,"In what State; on what continent; on what lake; or in what county?"
18698Then he asked the class,"What would you do for a person who had been smothered by breathing coal gas?"
18698Then, how may we find the area of a triangle?
18698Then, if each is half of the rectangle, what must be the area of one of the triangles?
18698Two days later, where did the Mayflower come to anchor?
18698What are some of the effects of breathing impure air?

18698Where did they finally anchor?
18698Where do the corpuscles of the blood get their loads of oxygen?
18698Where do they get the carbon dioxide?
18698Where does this oxidization, or burning up of worn- out cells, take place?
18698While the Mayflower remained at anchor, what did Captain Standish and a boatload of men do?
18698Who chased whom down what valley?
18698Why did not the Pilgrims land at this point?

6685But how are you going to reach your burrow on the island yonder?
6685But what shall I do when the ink is gone?

6685Of what use are you, O Alder Trees?
6685Of what use are you, O Birch Tree?
6685Of what use would the Mill be to me? 6685 Shall I take them?"
6685Shall I take them?
6685Shall I take them?

6685Why have you returned?
6685Why should I carry you?
6685Why?
6685Will it grind salt?
6685You are very strong, are you not?
6685You dear children, who led you here? 6685 And what will this poor robin do? 6685 Are you a beast of field and tree, Or just a stronger child than me? 6685 But where are the children?
6685But who are you?"

6685Echo answered,"Who is there?"
6685Green leaves a- floating, Castles of the foam, Boats of mine a- boating-- Where will all come home?
6685Hansel called,"Who is there?"
6685He said with a roar,"What do you mean, Friend Donkey, by taking so much for your share?"
6685He was walking along, and what do you suppose he saw?
6685In winter dead and dark, Where can poor Robin go?
6685O you that are so strong and cold, O blower, are you young or old?
6685One day he said to himself,"Am I going to die on this island?"
6685Poor Robin Crusoe, where have you been?"
6685Shall I not give her to the one who sends it?"
6685So he said, less proudly,"Will you come with me and see how the beavers build their lodges?"
6685So the bear stood still and said,"Where are you going, my friend?"
6685Soon they heard some one say, in a squeaky voice,"Nibble, nibble, little mouse, Who is nibbling my sweet house?"
6685THE WHITING AND THE SNAIL"Will you walk a little faster?"
6685Then he said to the lion,"Which part will you have, King Lion?"

44102How many got breakfast?
44102Is it not dishonest?
44102What are these?
44102What is it, Mary?
44102What will Father''s sweetheart have for breakfast this morning?
44102..... Did you learn this summer?
44102..... Travel?
44102...... Bake the bread?
44102................ Bake a cake?
44102................. Do the washing?
44102.................... Do the ironing?
44102....................... Make the beds?
44102A fad, if you please?
44102Are you sleeping in the open air or with open window?
44102Attend Summer School?
44102Besides, if you give credit in this way for things not algebra,_ what will become of the algebra_?"
44102But how is there to be any assurance that the child is forming habits of industry if there is not coöperation?
44102But one says:"How can it be brought about?
44102Can you swim 300 feet or more?
44102Did I say home?
44102Did we go because it was a new plan?
44102Did you do any work along the line of agriculture, horticulture, gardening, bee- culture or poultry- raising?
44102Did you have a flower garden?
44102Did you help at home during the summer vacation?
44102Did you take music lessons?
44102Do you recall my reminding a little girl about her voice?
44102Does he get ready for school on time,|||| without constant urging?
44102Does he keep his books, clothes, etc.,|||| in the places assigned for them?
44102Does he prepare his school work at a|||| regular time and without constant|||| urging?
44102Does he read much?
44102Does justice demand that we know what pupils do outside of school?
44102Have you a savings bank account?
44102Have you heard this speech?
44102How can the school give credit for industrial work done at home?"
44102How can the school help the home?
44102How many of you know how to make bread?"
44102IV WHAT WILL BECOME OF THE ALGEBRA?
44102If so, what?
44102If so, what?
44102If we are preparing for life, why not use the equipment we must use in life?
44102In the algebra recitation next day I asked,"How many helped with the work before coming to school?"
44102Is he careful about having his hair,|||| neck, hands, shoes, etc.,_ clean_?
44102Is it a passing fancy?
44102Must the teacher know home conditions in order to teach efficiently?
44102Of course most children do certain chores at home, but why confuse the work of the home with the work of the school?"
44102Or is it a means for training boys and girls to habits of industry and to a wholesome respect for honest toil?
44102Prepare one meal alone daily?
44102This is an unsettled problem: what_ will_ become of the algebra?
44102To the question,"Does this work interfere with the work of the school?"
44102VI HABIT- BUILDING Habit second nature?
44102WHAT WILL BECOME OF THE ALGEBRA?
44102Were you employed elsewhere than at home?
44102What business is it of the school to meddle with the home work?
44102What do you think about it, gentle reader?
44102What do you think about it?"
44102What does he read?
44102What electrical contrivance or other home accessory did you make to save your mother work?
44102What pieces of hand- work, if any, did you do during vacation?
44102What+-------------------------------------- does he do regularly for which|2d"he deserves credit?
44102Which of the following home tasks did you do this summer?
44102Why?
44102Will it bring the home and the school into closer relation?
44102already mentioned, for which he+-------------------------------------- deserves credits?
44102any extra lessons, as music,+-------------------------------------- dancing, gymnasium, religious|2d"instruction, etc.?
44102he asked,"and will it not teach dishonesty?

44102||||---------------------------------------------+-------+------+------+------- V. Does he go to bed regularly at a|||| reasonable hour?
39863And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? 39863 But how shall I do nothing?"
39863But what must I do, then?
39863Do n''t you care, really?
39863Perhaps because of the perils of a solitary life? 39863 What_ number_ is this?"
39863Why do you desire me?
39863of this ribbon?
39863And here, in the case of education, shall man place the yoke upon man?
39863And is not this a common defect?
39863And why do we so avoid preparing for curves as well as angles?
39863And, indeed, what is a scientist?
39863At the question,"Which is the largest?"
39863But what indeed is benevolence?
39863But who does not know how often in these days she is obliged to tear herself unwillingly from the bedside of her sick to go to her work?
39863Can we make three in two ways?
39863Can we make two rods equal to number four?
39863Can we not give up prescription altogether for parts of the work and minimise it for others?
39863Children, do you know what this person at the door has done?
39863Did you hear it call out?"
39863Do all children need sense training, or only those of unfavorable inheritance and home environment?
39863Do you know what colour it is?
39863Do you know what has happened?
39863Do you see this baby that I am holding in my arms?"
39863Do you understand?
39863Do you want me to show you that it is a baby?
39863Does n''t it seem to you the same colour as the sky?
39863Have you ever looked at it before?
39863Have you never noticed it at night when it is all shining with stars?
39863Have you understood?
39863How shall one obtain_ discipline_ in a class of free children?
39863I asked then,"Do you understand?"
39863I had recourse to the means used by the children; that is, I wrote upon the blackboard,"Do you love me?"
39863I, seeing her pleasure, said to her, laughing,"Do you know the colours?"
39863If our schools can keep but half a day, is there time enough for every child to cover this work without group teaching at stated times?
39863If_ I_ remember the dancers more clearly than I do the arithmetic process, how must it have been with the children?
39863Indeed, why correct him?
39863Is everything ready on the two shorter sides?
39863Is it necessary to begin writing with the making of vertical strokes?
39863Is the prescription and restraint involved in such group teaching really enough to do the children any harm or to make our teaching less effective?
39863Is there anything lacking in the four corners?"
39863Newton is seated tranquilly in the open air; an apple falls from the tree, he observes it and asks,"Why?"
39863On what day of the month?
39863Our aim in all this is to reduce them to the discipline of immobility and silence,--to lead them,--where?
39863She may ask him,"What is this?"
39863The teacher wished to interfere, saying,"Do you think trees have red trunks?"
39863Then she may ask the child, pronouncing slowly and very clearly the name or the adjective she has taught:"Which is_ smooth_?
39863Then,''What letter is this?''
39863To whom is due this time- honoured idea that the first sign to be traced must be a straight line?
39863We ask the child, showing him the object,"What is this?"
39863What changes may we profitably introduce in our teaching of reading?
39863What have you read?
39863What is a weaned child?
39863What shall we say then, when the question before us is that of_ educating children_?
39863What then will become of the home, one asks, if the woman goes away from it?
39863What work do we wish to make sure that each child does?
39863What would become of us if we fell into the midst of a population of jugglers, or of lightning- change impersonators of the variety- hall?
39863When does your birthday come?
39863Which is_ rough_?"
39863Who does not know that a grown person who is to read a paper in public prepares for this by making himself master of the content?
39863Who does not know the difficulties of a poor family when one child is ill of some contagions disease, and should be isolated from the others?
39863Who stands so far above me that he may give me a prize?"
39863You told me how the little boy went to drive in a big carriage, did n''t you?
39863_ Allowing the letters to lie for some instants upon the table, the directress asks the child,"What is this?"
39863_ The Lesson on Zero._ We wait until the child, pointing to the compartment containing the card marked zero, asks,"And what must I put in here?"
39863our vanished illusion shall cry,"Who are you that recalls me to the fact that I am not the first among men?
13398Can we have a word with you, before school takes up?
13398Do you mean to say that you do n''t know what it is to lean against a tree? 13398 Dodd"wondered what was wanted, but arose, as he was bidden, and went to the door,"Do you see that tree, away down the road?"
13398How old is your boy?
13398Is that the actual truth of the matter?
13398It is a fine time for you to plead your mother now, is n''t it?
13398So you will not give me money to pay my fine?
13398That''s what I think it means; what do you think it means?
13398Well, what have I got to do if I go back?
13398Well, will you give the boy a trial?
13398What do I think it means?
13398What is your name, my dear?
13398What line?
13398Where do you suppose I hid?
13398Why are you leaving the room,''Dodd''?
13398Why do n''t you want to try,''Dodd?''
13398Why, what is this?
13398Why, what is this?
13398You do n''t think I''d lie about a thing like that, do you?
13398All this you may do, and yet, of what avail is it all?
13398And do not content yourself, either, by merely saying,"But what are we going to do about it?"
13398And for you, good people, who do not believe in this sort of thing, what about this case?
13398And if not a crime in"Dodd''s"case, why in other cases like his?
13398And the question is, what are we to do about it?
13398And what are you going to do about it?
13398And why not?
13398Are you a drunkard, with an appetite for drink that is gnawing your life away?
13398As people are born, so are they always, and what do all our strivings to change thy decrees amount to?
13398But what were the world without martyrs?
13398Did you ever hook a big fish, when angling with a light rod and line?
13398Did you ever think that when the Master received his severest temptation it was when he was alone?
13398Do n''t you suppose, good people, that it would be a great deal better, all around, if we each one got what we really deserve just when we deserve it?
13398Do you intend to mind me?"
13398Do you see any relation between"Dodd"and Amanda, good folks?
13398Do you understand?"
13398Does Mary whisper too much?
13398Eh?
13398Gentle teacher, you who read these lines, you know who was to take care of this specimen, do n''t you?
13398He may never become famous, but what is fame?
13398His heart sank, but, inspired by that same power which had so often come to him in an emergency, he said:"What is it''Dodd''?"
13398How is it in your own household, beloved?
13398I wonder if it is worth while to try to do anything with these boys, or for them?
13398If not, is it not remarkable?
13398If such is the effect on a dry old stump of a lawyer, what must the effect be on a green, sensitive child?
13398Indeed, what had he to care for, in all that great city?
13398Is John doing something that he should not do?
13398Is it, or is it not, better so?
13398It would have been a crime to treat in like manner a gentle little girl with a sweet disposition, but was it a crime in the case of"Dodd?"
13398Miss Stone was alarmed, and she almost trembled as she asked:"''Dodd,''where are the beans?"
13398Now, what is meant by that?"
13398Now, who thinks he can take the pointer and point to the kind of girl I ask for?"
13398Oh, Mr. Sliman, you were very sharp, were n''t you?
13398Rather young for such ideas?
13398She came down to his desk and said:"It''s a bad kind of a morning for boys, is n''t it,''Dodd''?"
13398So"Dodd"took a room down town, and then if the devil went to sleep, sure of his victim, you do not wonder, do you?
13398The boy glanced up and giggled just a little-- such a knowing giggle, too, as much as to say:"What do you take me for?
13398The question strikes one, then, why should he have been promised this, and why led to hope for and expect it?
13398The world is much the same now as it was a good many years ago, is n''t it?
13398There are multitudes in like case, and what are we going to do about it?
13398There is no pleasing feature in its early stages, but does not its outcome warrant all its ugly phases?
13398Under these circumstances his parents did not force him to school, and who shall say they did wrong by letting him stay at home and work?
13398Was this the fault of his education, thus far?
13398What are you going to do about this?
13398What does that mean?
13398What is it to this great mill if the pupils do fall out of the hopper?
13398What kind o''folks hev you got?
13398What, indeed?
13398Why should anyone comment on such a fact?
13398Why should he not revere such a source of help; such an everlasting tower of strength?
13398Why should he not take it?
13398Why should it?
13398Why, where was you raised?
13398Yet the question remained, what should be done when they did meet?
13398Yet you all know Miss Spinacher, do n''t you, ladies and gentlemen?
13398You all know this boy, do n''t you, beloved?
13398You do n''t believe this?
13398You have found it so in your own experience, have n''t you, my friend?
13398You have found it so yourself, have n''t you, beloved?
13398You have had dollars of your own that have been appropriated thus, have you not?
13398You have seen such wrecks by the score, have you not, good friends?
13398You know what followed, do you not, ladies and gentlemen?
13398he retorted;"what do I think it means?
19659Or what man is there of you whom if his son ask bread will he give him a stone?
19659( This depends largely upon heredity and native endowment) but, What is its quality and its temper?
19659Acknowledging then the necessity for training all these powers, how can it best be done?
19659Admitting that strong moral character is the noblest result of right training, is it not still incidental to the regular school work?
19659Again, a boy goes to town and sees a_ banana_ for the first time, and asks,"What is that?
19659And is there any motive or incentive so stimulating to the will as a steady and constantly increasing_ interest_ in studies?
19659And on what does efficiency in the production, preparation, and distribution of commodities depend?
19659And where was given a better opportunity for the display of personal virtues than by the leaders of these little danger- encircled communities?
19659Are the various sciences so distinct and so widely separated in nature and in real life as they are in school?
19659As a child enters upon the work of acquisition are there any regulatives to guide the process of learning?
19659As measured upon this cardinal purpose, what is the intrinsic value of each school study?
19659But the question at once arises: Does not the will always act from_ motives_ of some sort?
19659But the question that confronts us at every turn is,_ What is the disciplinary value of nature study_?
19659But to what was his remarkable influence as a teacher of young men due?
19659But we believe that those educators whose first, middle, and last question in education is,"What is the_ disciplinary_ value of a study?"
19659But what ideas are thus disturbed?
19659But where is the limit?
19659Can growth in knowledge be made a progressive investigation?
19659Can our common studies be approached in this inquisitive spirit?
19659Do we proceed from the whole, to the parts, or from the parts to the whole?
19659For culture purposes, where can their equals be found?
19659Have we any home- bred food like this for the nourishment of our growing youth?
19659How are glass and soap made?
19659How are iron, silver, and copper ore mined and reduced?
19659How do reading and natural science aid a child to grow into the full stature of a man or woman?
19659How does a suction pump work and why?
19659How far can teaching stimulate and develop such a will?
19659How is it possible for a fish to breathe in water?
19659How is sugar obtained from maple trees, cane, and beet root?
19659How is the teacher to approach and influence the will of the child?
19659How?
19659If a dry goods merchant, a horse jockey, and an architect pass down a city street together, what will each observe?
19659Into what_ relations_ shall the other studies of the school enter to these historical materials?
19659Is it by supposing that the child has a will already developed and strong enough to be relied upon on all occasions?
19659Is n''t there a quicker and easier way?
19659Is there then any reason why school history should ignore its blood relationships to other branches of knowledge?
19659Is this history adapted to cultivate the highest moral and intellectual qualities of children as they advance from year to year?
19659Knowledge likewise enters the mind, but how far will assimilation go on without conscious effort?
19659Now what will the average man, picked up at random, say to our question: What is the chief end in the education of your son?
19659Now, who is better able to judge of the true aim than thoughtful and solicitous_ parents_?
19659On the contrary, must not the teacher put incentives in the path of the pupil, ideas and feelings that prompt him to self- denial?
19659On what principle is it possible to select both interesting and valuable materials for the successive grades?
19659Secondly, what is the_ effect on the old ideas_?
19659Shall we answer to all this that schools were never designed to teach such things?
19659Shall we seek to avoid responsibility for the moral aim by throwing it upon the family and the church?
19659So long as we are dealing with fundamental aims in such a serious business as education, why stop short of that ideal which is manifestly the best?
19659Spencer sees clearly the importance of this problem and gives it a vigorous discussion in his first chapter,"What knowledge is of most worth?"
19659The first question, preliminary to all others in the common school course,"What is the most important study?"
19659The under- lying question in education is not, How strong or incisive is his mind?
19659To what extent does history contribute to our purpose?
19659We desire therefore to approach nearer to this problem:_ What is the highest aim of education_?
19659We_ can_ pave such a road through the fields of moral science, but when a child has traveled it is he a whit the better?
19659What can concentration do to remedy the one and check the other?
19659What has a knowledge of natural science to do with the construction of stoves, furnaces, and lamps?
19659What importance have geography and arithmetic?
19659What is the cause of this difference?
19659What is the central purpose of education?
19659What noble examples does it furnish of right thought and action?
19659What relation have these facts to induction?
19659What results in this direction can the natural sciences tabulate?
19659When a child, leaving school behind, develops into a citizen, what tests are applied to him?
19659Who has the best survey of the field?
19659Who spends six hours a day directing these currents of thought and interest?
19659Why has one man learned so much and the other nothing?
19659Why is it that a mole can burrow and live under ground?
19659Why not bind all the studies and ideas of a child as closely together as possible by natural lines of association?
19659Why not cultivate those nobler incentives that spring out of culture- bringing- knowledge?
19659Why not select for reading lessons those materials which will throw added light upon contemporaneous lessons in history, botany, and geography?
19659Why should the teacher rely upon his own unaided example more than the preacher?
19659Why should we not, instead of dead books, open the living book of nature?
19659_ Are_ there materials for school study which are adapted fully to interest first grade children?
36762And how can we cut the discourse to the quick and extract these schemes, without at the same time destroying its life?
36762And if thought is a shadow, what will reality then be?
36762And what else does the tyrant when he destroys the freedom of the land and substitutes a new state for the crushed Commonwealth?
36762And what teacher would ever arbitrarily impose on his students such an abstract and mechanical method?
36762And, on the other hand, what can be known as to the form of anything, unless we have the thing itself before us in its form and with its contents?
36762Are they not rather one sole identical category?
36762Are we prevailed upon by ignorance and lack of reflection?
36762As people conceive them and use them, what are they if not a schematic arrangement of the forms by which words are joined so as to constitute speech?
36762But can the idea of animal be thought by itself alone?
36762But could it grow without the rays of the sun, the moisture of the soil?
36762But granting all this, was it really worth while?
36762But idealistically speaking, is this word Machiavelli''s or is it ours,--a word belonging to us who are inquiring into his thoughts?
36762But is it really so?
36762But is the True a different category from the Good?
36762But this action by which each term is referred to the other so as to deny it, what is it but a relationship?
36762But what is the method of a science if not the logical scheme or the form of a certain scientific knowledge?
36762But when?
36762But, then, when is it that my will really is effective, really_ wills_?
36762Can the Will, by which each one of us is what he is, be his own Will, exclusively his own?
36762Can there be anything else beside_ us_ and what_ we_ think?
36762Can we believe that there is ever going to be a philosophy which will definitely fulfil the ideal?
36762Can we really consider as non- existent what we as yet do not know, may perhaps never know, but which is none the less capable of being known?
36762Could it possibly be otherwise?
36762Could my language in short really be my language, if it belonged exclusively to me, to what I have called my particular or empirical personality?
36762Does not every living being_ become_?
36762For they ask: what then is the learning which we ascribe to the master minds of humanity, now indeed dead but still active in their works?
36762For what are things but the spirit as it is looked at abstractly in the multiplicity of its manifestations?
36762For what, in fact, is discipline?
36762For who is it that worries over discipline as such, and as though it were a thing different from teaching?
36762For would it not be sufficient to live it?
36762Have we here anything more than a word?
36762Having now reached this point, can we define culture?
36762How are we to reconcile this presupposition and this aim of the educator with his interference in the personality of the pupil?
36762If the teachers of Trieste were able to understand and to enjoy a philosophic discussion of their chosen work, why should not the teachers of America?
36762In the grammar, perchance?
36762Is it common territory that constitutes nationality?
36762Is it established authority?
36762Is it possible for an inexistent thing to vouch for the existence of something which we know only from its attestations?
36762Is it possible for us to stop at this conclusion?
36762Is not this the nature of the ideas as we see them, as they constitute the field from which we must harvest all our possible thoughts?
36762Is this question truly unanswerable as it seems to be, as it has often in the past been declared to be?
36762On what side of the controversy should the teacher stand who means to absorb into his soul the life of the school?
36762Or in the dictionary?
36762So then, what is Dante the poet who towers over the centuries, the object of our admiration, the master of all who speak and use the Italian language?
36762That he is under the influence of something repeated after a first utterance?
36762What does this autonomous becoming consist in?
36762What force intrinsic to this drop could ever stop it on the crest of the wave which hurls it forward?
36762What is another man''s sorrow to me?
36762What is dearer than the joy foretasted at the first imaginings of school?
36762What is more natural than to avenge an insult, and to harbour hatred against an enemy?
36762What merit is there in the safe which contains the greater sum?
36762What part have I in his joys?
36762What then is the meaning of multiplicity?
36762What then is this one, infinite, universal reality?
36762What, then, is the nation?
36762When we are filled with reverence for the glory of men whose learning surpasses our powers, are we the victims of an illusion?
36762When we have attained this notion of the unity which is always the same, no matter under how many aspects it may present itself, what have we gained?
36762Where is it now?
36762Where is this something which I have called the Italian language?
36762Who can say what the life of the plant is?
36762Who is it that looks upon this problem as an insoluble one?
36762Who will encourage the beginner to leave the dry land and plunge into the deep where he would meet sure destruction?
36762Why demand a head, so to speak, as a hood for the head?
36762Why insist on_ thinking_ its life?
36762Will he with the realists believe in a reality which must be observed and verified?
36762or is it common language?
36762or political life led in common?
36762or the accumulation of memories, of traditions, and of customs by which a people looks back to_ one_ past where it never fails to find itself?
16287But how can you speak if you''re killed?
16287When two of these asses met, there would be an anxious''Have you got your lantern?'' 16287 ***** And now what is the result of all these considerations and quotations? 16287 ***** But what, exactly, do we mean by an ideal? 16287 And in what does your deliberation consist? 16287 And what do we retort when they say this? 16287 And which has the superior view of the absolute truth, he or we? 16287 And who knows how much of that higher manliness of poverty, of which Phillips Brooks has spoken so penetratingly, was or was not present in that gang? 16287 And why is this so? 16287 As you sit reading the most moving romance you ever fell upon, what sort of a judge is your fox- terrier of your behavior? 16287 But how can one attain to the feeling of the vital significance of an experience, if one have it not to begin with? 16287 But this forming of associations with a fact,--what is it but thinking_ about_ the fact as much as possible? 16287 But was not this a paradox well calculated to fill one with dismay? 16287 But, if so, how does he point it out? 16287 Can not we escape some of those hideous ancestral intolerances and cruelties, and positive reversals of the truth? 16287 Can the teacher afford to throw such an ally away? 16287 Can we give no definite account of such a word? 16287 Can we say which of these functions is the more essential? 16287 Could a Howells or a Kipling be enlisted in this mission? 16287 Does your faculty of memory obey the order, and reproduce any definite image from your past? 16287 For where would any of it have been without their unremitting, unrewarded labor in the fields? 16287 How are idioms acquired, how do local peculiarities of phrase and accent come about? 16287 How can conversation possibly steer itself through such a sea of responsibilities and inhibitions as this? 16287 How is it when an alternative is presented to you for choice, and you are uncertain what you ought to do? 16287 I was out early taking a short walk by the river only two squares from where I live.... Shall I tell you about[ my life] just to fill up? 16287 If the outer differences had no meaning for life, why indeed should all this immense variety of them exist? 16287 If there_ were_ any such morally exceptional individuals, however, what made them different from the rest? 16287 If, arresting ourselves in the flow of reverie, we ask the question,How came we to be thinking of just this object now?"
16287If, then, you are asked,"_ In what does a moral act consist_ when reduced to its simplest and most elementary form?"
16287Is he in excess, being in this matter a maniac?
16287Is it because they are so dirty?
16287Is it the insensibility?
16287Is it the poverty?
16287Is it the slavery to a task, the loss of finer pleasures?
16287It stands staring into vacancy, and asking,"What kind of a thing do you wish me to remember?"
16287Many teachers are inquiring,"What is the meaning of Apperception in educational psychology?"
16287Must we wait for some one born and bred and living as a laborer himself, but who, by grace of Heaven, shall also find a literary voice?
16287Now of what do such habits of reaction themselves consist?
16287Now what is the cause of this absence of repose, this bottled- lightning quality in us Americans?
16287So that, if the_ homo sapiens_ of the future can only digest his food and think, what need will he have of well- developed muscles at all?
16287So, taking the book, she asked:"In what condition is the interior of the globe?"
16287The backache, the long hours, the danger, are patiently endured-- for what?
16287The change is well described by my colleague, Josiah Royce:--"What, then, is our neighbor?
16287Then I said to the mountaineer who was driving me,"What sort of people are they who have to make these new clearings?"
16287WHAT MAKES A LIFE SIGNIFICANT?
16287We mean all this in youth, I say; and yet in how many middle- aged men and women is such an honest and sanguine expectation fulfilled?
16287We say:"Why_ did n''t_ you think?
16287Well, has our experimental self- observation, so understood, already accomplished aught of importance?
16287What is life on the largest scale, he asks, but the same recurrent inanities, the same dog barking, the same fly buzzing, forevermore?
16287What is the attentive process, psychologically considered?
16287What is their life to ours,--the life that is as naught to them?
16287What more deadly uninteresting object can there be than a railroad time- table?
16287What percentage of persons now fifty years old have any definite conception whatever of a dynamo, or how the trolley- cars are made to run?
16287What were you there for but to think?"
16287Where would any of_ us_ be, were there no one willing to know us as we really are or ready to repay us for_ our_ insight by making recognizant return?
16287Which has the more vital insight into the nature of Jill''s existence, as a fact?
16287Who are the scholars who get''rattled''in the recitation- room?
16287Who are those who do recite well?
16287Why are you, my hearers, sitting here before me?
16287Why not?
16287Why seek to eliminate it from the schoolroom or minimize the sterner law?
16287Yet where will you find a more interesting object if you are going on a journey, and by its means can find your train?
16287Yet you remember the Irishman who, when asked,"Is not one man as good as another?"
16287or are we in defect, being victims of a pathological anà ¦ sthesia as regards Jill''s magical importance?
16287to which,"Is that the kind of spray I spray my nose with?"
18451How many of you know?
18451The Great Charter was signed by what king?
18451The first English parliament was called by...?
18451Was Charles I willing or unwilling to sign the Petition of Right?
18451What about the rivers of Germany?
18451What did Cromwell become?
18451What might we say of this word?
18451( 2) What have you often noticed on the window of the kitchen on cool days?
18451( 3) When the water in a tea- kettle is boiling rapidly, what do you see between the mouth of the spout and the cloud of steam?
18451= Example of Induction.=--As an example of induction, may be taken the solution of such a problem as,"Does air exert pressure?"
18451A pig?
18451A robin?
18451All these are the writings of persons, knowing in each of the respective pursuits?
18451Alternative questions such as,"Is this a noun or an adjective?"
18451Are they not the writings of those who know how to govern-- kings, statesmen, and men of superior excellence?
18451Can you see this water ordinarily?
18451Competition of railways, How?
18451Could it be omitted?
18451Could you see the vapour in the air?
18451For such questions as,"What British officer was killed at Queenston Heights?"
18451From where did these drops of water come?
18451How did the temperature of the window panes compare with the temperature of the room?
18451How do you play it?
18451How has the fraction been affected?
18451How many feet in a yard?
18451How many quarts in a peck?
18451If, for instance, a person is but half awake and receives a sound sensation, he does not ask himself,"What mental state is_ this_?"
18451If, then, we see some doing this, are we to declare them knowing or ignorant?
18451In other words, will the memorizing of any set of facts strengthen the mind to remember more easily any other facts whatsoever?
18451In the case just cited, for instance, the child starts with the problem,"What is the condition of the rainfall in British Columbia?"
18451In what form must the water have been before it formed in drops on the cold glass?
18451In what part of the sentence does it stand?
18451Is the steam then at first visible or invisible?
18451It is in this way that a child should approach such problems as: How many fours are there in twelve?
18451May it not follow therefore, that a trade or guessing game given by the kindergarten director will fail to call forth the free activity of the child?

11667WHAT ARE GENTLE MEASURES?
11667What do we mean by the obligation resting upon us to tell the truth?
11667What do you think would be good names for the boys, if you were making up such a story?"
11667What is there_ in_ your hole, bunny?--My nest is there, and my little bunnies.--How many little bunnies have you got?''"
11667What makes it so?"
11667When, therefore, a child asks,"May I do this?"
11667Who sits next to you at school?--George Williams.--George Williams?
11667Why ca n''t you come and walk quietly along the path, like a sensible person?"
11667Why ca n''t you, when you get a good seat, sit still in it?"
11667Will they enjoy it?
11667Will they succeed in it?
11667Would I like to do it if I were they?--but simply, Is there any harm or danger in it?
11667Would n''t you like a pillow, kitty?
11667Would you like to go and sit in his sick- room to show your love for him, and to be ready to help him if he wants any thing?"
11667Would you like to sell him?
11667[ Illustration:"MOTHER, WHAT MAKES IT SNOW?"]
11667_ Who is Responsible?_ So with the child.
11667and,"Lucy, what makes you keep jumping up all the time and running about to different places?
11667or,"How will_ you_ manage about that?"
11667or,"May I do that?"
11667said her mother, speaking in a stern and reproachful tone;"what do you keep running about so for all the time, Hannah?
11667what makes the rainbow?"
33923But does the fairy tale come of noble blood? 33923 But in addition to the requirement of classical nobility, has the fairy story also the moral tone which we required of the genuine child''s story?
33923Did you see any birds on Saturday?
33923Dost thou not mind, old woman,he said,"How thou madest me sup and dine?
33923Have you been to the woods?
33923Is the German fairy tale childlike? 33923 O, have they parishes burnt?"
33923O, what have they done?
33923O, who are these,the sheriff he said,"Come tripping over the lea?"
33923What color was it?
33923What did you find there?
33923What do you think it wants Thumbkin to do?
33923What news? 33923 What news?
33923What ones?
33923("Did you think I_ meant_ to hit_ you_?")
33923And can there be any question that there is a time in the lives of children when these ideas fill the horizon of their thought?
33923And not only so, but the choicest meat and drink, the best food upon which to nourish their unfolding minds?
33923Are they really meat and drink for the little ones?
33923But what virtue lies concealed in these fairy myths for the children of our practical and sensible age?
33923Can he set a shoe?
33923Children sing softly:--"Oh, violets, pretty violets, I pray you tell to me Why are you the first flowers That bloom upon the lea?"
33923Does it possess what we called in the case of classics an old title of nobility?
33923Does the fairy story make for morals?
33923Felix Adler says:[2]"But how shall we handle these_ Märchen_ and what method shall we employ in putting them to account for our special purpose?
33923How can I live?
33923How can I live?
33923How can he help himself?
33923How can the teacher, by questioning, get them to realize the more important part of the thought?
33923How could a child put to the torture an animal which is an old friend in fairy story?
33923How shall he conceal his cave and house from possible enemies?
33923How shall he escape from the enraged Polyphemos in the cave?
33923II What is that in the road?
33923III_ Donkey._ What is that in the road?
33923II_ In the morning._ Why do the trees look at me?
33923IV_ Donkey._ What is that on the gate?
33923Is John Smith within?
33923Is this the material suited to nine- and ten- year- old children?
33923It is an honor to be able to answer all the questions put:-- What color is your head?
33923It will not be questioned that these myths belong to the best literary products of Europe, but are they suited to children?
33923John reads,"Do you think I meant to_ hit_ you?"
33923My good friend Robin, Earl of Huntingdon, For Earl thou art again, hast thou no fetters For those of thine own band who would betray thee?
33923Of what could the needle boast?
33923Of what the pin?
33923Or have they robbed any virgin?
33923Or other men''s wives have ta''en?"
33923Shall the teacher simply read the stories to children?
33923Sometimes the second question, slightly altered, is asked first,_ e.g._,"Can John Smith set a shoe?"
33923Sometimes"Who is within?"
33923That inborn delight of the young in all that is marvellous and fantastic-- has that a merely evil root?
33923These fed Shakespeare''s youth; why should they not feed our children''s?
33923What are the merits of these stories for children just entering upon scholastic pursuits?
33923What are these people going to give me?
33923What are your ears for?
33923What are your eyes for?
33923What are your fingers for?
33923What are your teeth for?
33923What bird builds a nest in a tree trunk?
33923What bird builds a nest on the ground?
33923What blue flowers?
33923What color is your bill?
33923What color is your breast?
33923What color is your throat?
33923What colors on your wings?
33923What do you do?
33923What flower did you see first?
33923What has happened?
33923What have you seen a robin do?
33923What is Crusoe to do now?
33923What is it that you do not want Bun to think?"
33923What is its central idea, the author''s aim or motive in producing it?
33923What is its name?
33923What is my name?
33923What is my name?
33923What is that on the table?
33923What is the matter, old whiskers?
33923What is the matter?
33923What is the matter?
33923What is your brain for?
33923What is your hand for?
33923What is your heart for?
33923What is your mouth for?
33923What is your nose for?
33923What is your tongue for?
33923What means can he invent?
33923What news hast thou for me?"
33923What news, I do thee pray?"
33923What shall I buy?
33923What shall I do?
33923What shall the teacher do with this powerful tendency of children to carry over these ideas into the field of practical constructive labor?
33923What was it you did not mean to hit?
33923What white flowers?
33923What yellow flowers have you seen this spring?
33923When the children have interpreted the above sentence at the board, the teacher writes,"Do you know why?"
33923Where can he store his powder to keep it from the lightning and from dampness?
33923Where do you make your nest?
33923Where is my cane?
33923Where is my sunbonnet?
33923Why indeed?
33923Why should not this naive expressiveness be gently fostered in the school?
33923Why should we draw from fountains whose sources are back in the prehistoric and even barbarous past?
33923Will you look at them?
33923_ Old woman._ What shall I do?
33923_ Robin Hood._ Am I worse or better?
33923full of simplicity as well as of fancy?
33923he said,"Or have they ministers slain?
33923he said;"O Christ you save and see; And what will you give to a silly old man To- day will your hangman be?"
33923what news, thou silly old man?
33923what news, thou silly old woman?
21045What is that which I should turn to, lighting upon days like these? 21045 And are not our literary men whom it is possible to admire and love either dead or old enough to die? 21045 And does not the blessed Saviour come talking of life, of light, of truth, of joy, and peace? 21045 And is this the explanation of the blight which falls upon the imagination and the hearts of the young? 21045 Are republican institutions fatal to noble personality? 21045 Are they not satisfied with low aims? 21045 Are we to continue to dig and delve and peer into matter until God and the soul fade from our view and we become like the things we work in? 21045 Are we, then, destined to become a sort of Chinese Empire, with three hundred millions of human beings, and not a divine man or woman? 21045 But what do we in reality see there? 21045 Do not nearly all men strive to convince themselves of the truth of those opinions which they are interested in holding? 21045 Do not our young men lack noble ambition? 21045 Do they not lack repose, distinction, a sense for complete and harmonious living? 21045 Does not love itself, in its heaven of bliss, turn away from him who mocks? 21045 Does not our national genius seem to lie altogether in the line of what is practically useful? 21045 Does universal equality mean universal inferiority? 21045 Have not the Christian nations moved forward following after liberty and knowledge? 21045 He who believes in culture must believe in God; for what but God do we mean when we talk of loving the best thoughts and the highest beauty? 21045 How am I certain that I know anything? 21045 How can they realize that the good of life consists in being, and not in having? 21045 How is it possible to remain inferior when we believe in God and know that this age is the right moment for all high and holy work? 21045 If knowledge bring power and wealth, if it give fame and pleasure, it is dear to us; but how many are able to love it for its own sake? 21045 If the Almighty God does not win the multitude to the love of righteousness and wisdom, how shall the words of man prevail? 21045 If, you ask, How long? 21045 Is it not worth the labor and expectation of a life- time to be able to do, even once, the right thing excellently well? 21045 Is not its motive Love, divine and human, and is not knowledge Love''s guide and minister? 21045 Is not our religion the worship of God in spirit and in truth? 21045 Is not the yearning for divine men inborn? 21045 Is the commonest man the only type which in a democratic society will in the end survive? 21045 Is the material progress of the nineteenth century a cradle or a grave? 21045 Is their dislike of the millionaires but a symptom of their aversion to all who in any way are distinguished from the crowd? 21045 Must we not still look to Europe for our best religious and philosophic thought, our best poetry, painting, music, and architecture? 21045 Nay, shall we not rather believe that the best is yet to be done? 21045 Now as I have already admitted, endowments are unlike; but what has this to do with the drift of the argument? 21045 Now, how shall he who is resolved to educate himself set about his work? 21045 Now, in all this, what do we perceive but the purpose of God, urging mankind to wider and nobler life? 21045 Of such a youth how shall any college make an enlightened, a noble, and a reverent man? 21045 Of the hundred will one become a saint, a philosopher, a poet, a statesman, or even a man of superior ability in natural knowledge or literature? 21045 Shall he indulge scorn for any being whom God has made, for any thought which has strengthened and consoled the human heart? 21045 Shall not life be more solemn and sacred to him than to another? 21045 They hear heavenly voices asking, Why stay ye on the earth, unless to grow? 21045 What advice shall be given him? 21045 What bars are thrown athwart his path, what obstacles hem his way, which, whoever in any age has excelled, has not had to break down and surmount? 21045 What does this universal reign of title and office mean but the practical education which responsibility gives? 21045 What hues has not God painted on the air, the water, the fruit, and the grain that are the very substance and nutriment of our bodies? 21045 What is reality but a state of soul, finite in man, infinite in God? 21045 What is so delightful as spring weather? 21045 What is the best? 21045 What is the worthiest life- aim? 21045 What marvelous, intellectual work are we not doing? 21045 What noble thoughts have they not concerning education? 21045 What rules shall be made for him that he may not waste time and energy? 21045 What then is the true life- ideal? 21045 What they were, why may not he also become? 21045 Where is there one who does not approve and encourage whatever brings increase of wealth? 21045 Who is there that denies the worth of what is useful? 21045 Who will believe that the kingdom of this world, not less than the kingdom of Heaven, lies within? 21045 Who will understand that to be is better than to have, and that in truth a man is worth only what he is? 21045 Who would rob them of this divine principle of progress which makes growth the best of life? 21045 Who, even in thinking of the worth of a pious and righteous life, is not swayed by some sort of honesty- best- policy principle? 21045 Why is this glorious creature to be found One only in ten thousand? 21045 Why persist in the pursuit of what can never be completely attained? 21045 Why shall he whose mind is free, symmetrical, and open, be tempted to vain glory, to frivolous boasting? 21045 Why should he whose mind is strong, and rests on God, be disturbed? 21045 Why stay we on the earth unless to grow? 21045 Why toil to gain what the mass of men neither admire nor love? 21045 Why turn away from pleasures which lie near us to follow after ideal things? 21045 Why wear out life in a course of action which leads neither to wealth nor honors? 21045 Will not our friends, even, conceive a mean opinion of our ability, if we fail to gain public recognition? 21045 that we are worth what our knowledge, love, admiration, hope, faith, and desire make us worth? 21045 what bars are thrown By Nature in the way of such a hope? 21045 what one is, Why may not millions be? 21045 who would throw a veil over the vision on which young eyes rest when young hearts feel that ideal things alone are real? 16987 But how about the teachers?"
16987But,I objected,"is that consistent with the doctrine of spontaneity?"
16987How do you get the beautiful results that you exhibit?
16987Tell me,he would say,"who are the great men of your country?
16987What do they make at this table?
16987What,he asked,"is the dominant characteristic of the child''s mind?"
16987Again you say to me, What can education do when the spirit of the times speaks so strongly on the other side?
16987Again, how may the story be best presented?
16987And should not we who teach stand for idealism in its widest sense?
16987And since I have made this personal reference, may I violate the canons of good taste and make still another?
16987And what will be the result of this new point of view?
16987Are we losing our hold upon the sterner virtues which our fathers possessed,--upon the things of the spirit that are permanent and enduring?
16987But after all, are not the basic and fundamental things these ideals that I have named?
16987But is the situation absolutely hopeless?
16987But what is the relation of the craft spirit to these facts?
16987But when I graduated, what did I find?
16987But, you ask, what can education do to alleviate a condition of this sort?
16987Can general education help us out at all in this matter?
16987Could a pupil who has lived vicariously through such experiences as these easily forsake principle for policy?
16987Did he follow them out consistently in the operation of his school?
16987HOW MAY WE PROMOTE THE EFFICIENCY OF THE TEACHING FORCE?
16987How are we to do it?
16987How many of our boys and girls have ever heard of MacDowell, or James, or Whistler, or Sargent?
16987How many of the allusions need be run down in order to give the maximal effect of the masterpiece?
16987How may the weak influence of the school make itself felt in an environment that has crystallized on every hand this unfortunate standard?
16987How, then, is the efficiency of instruction( as distinguished from training or habit building) to be tested?
16987I have said that we must ask of every subject that we teach, How does it influence conduct?
16987II The first question for which we should seek an answer in connection with the value of any school subject is this: How does it influence conduct?
16987IV But what has all this to do with school supervision?
16987If this is not our function in the scheme of things, then what is our function?
16987Is it to cower in dread of a criticism that is not only unjust but often ill- advised of the real conditions under which we are doing our work?
16987Is it to stand with bated breath to catch the first whisper that will usher in the next change?
16987Is it to surrender all initiative and simply allow ourselves to be tossed hither and yon by the waves and cross- waves of a fickle public opinion?
16987Is there any other useful outcome of a general nature that we may rank in importance with these two?
16987It is easy to preach the simple life, but who will live it unless he has to?
16987It reminded me of the spirited discussion that one of the Sunday papers started some years since on the world- old query,"Is marriage a failure?"
16987Now if this ideal of persistent effort is the most useful thing that can come out of education, what is the next most useful?
16987Now what was the secret of its utility?
16987Now what was the secret of the efficiency of this school?
16987Should the story be sketched through first, and then read in some detail, or will one reading suffice?
16987The young teacher''s tendency is always to ask himself,"Do my pupils like me?"
16987What are these facts?
16987What do men find to be the useful thing in their lives?
16987What do we mean by national traits?
16987What does the true artist care for the plaudits or the sneers of the crowd?
16987What is their relation to our problem?
16987What laws govern their operation?
16987What part shall the pupils read in class?
16987What part shall they read at home?
16987What part, if any, shall we read to them?
16987What questions are necessary to insure appreciation?
16987What type of achievement have you been led to imitate and emulate and admire?"
16987What will be their answer?
16987What, after all, is the"useful"study in our schools?
16987When will the good public cease to insult the teacher''s calling with empty flattery?
16987Where shall we introduce_ The Tale of Two Cities_?
16987Who are the men toward whom the youth of your land are led to look for inspiration?
16987Who are the men whom your boys are led to imitate and emulate and admire?"
16987Why not let a little of it go out to the teacher of this child?
16987Why not plan a little for her comfort and welfare and encouragement?
16987Why not tell these young people the truth and let them be prepared for the fate that must come sooner or later?
16987Why revamp and refurbish the old platitudes and dole them out each succeeding year?
16987Why should they fail to be depressed?
16987Why, he asks, should we create an illusion that must thus be rudely dispelled?
16987Why?
16987Will it be in the second year, or the third, or the fourth?
16987Would it not be possible so to frame examination questions that the"cramming"process would be practically valueless?
16987he cried;"what are they?
16987~III~ HOW MAY WE PROMOTE THE EFFICIENCY OF THE TEACHING FORCE?
37020Are you old, mother?
37020Do lions climb trees?
37020Do you know,asked a little fellow of four years,"what I shall do when I''m a big man?
37020How old is Rover?
37020Mother,asked a small boy of four,"why_ is_ there such a lot of things in the world if no one knows all these things?"
37020Shall I read to you out of this book, baby?
37020What is that dog''s name?
37020What sort of hair had you when you were a little girl?
37020Where is doggie''s tail?
37020Where was Rover born?
37020Who made?
37020Who was his father?
37020Why?
37020A child of two, the same that asked his mother,"Would you like to take hold of my hand?"
37020A girl of four asked:"Where is yesterday gone to?"
37020A little boy five years old asked his teacher:"Would n''t it be funny if we were dreaming?"
37020A little boy of three once put the poser:"If I''d gone upstairs, could God make it that I had n''t?"
37020A little girl about three and a half years old asked her mother,"Mamma, why do there be any more days, why do there?
37020A little girl of three being shown a photograph of her family and not seeing her own face in the group asked:"Where is me?"
37020And in so doing has she not, with excellent economy, done just enough?
37020And one little girl asked about some old person of her acquaintance:"When will she begin to get small?"
37020And this is perhaps natural enough, for of the things whose production the child sees are not the larger number fashioned by human hands?
37020And what is more natural than to go to the wise lips of the grown- up for a solution of the difficulty?
37020Another child, a little girl in the same school, told her mother that she had seen a funeral last night, and on being asked,"Where?"
37020Are not movement and vocal sound the two great channels by which the child itself expresses its feelings and impulses?
37020Being duly instructed that she was not here, or indeed anywhere, she asked:"Was I killed?"
37020But can we be sure that this is the result of his own observations?
37020But is not this laugh just the saving clause of the story, suggesting that it was play and the spirit of mischief at bottom?
37020D., who was reading about an earthquake, addressed his mother thus:"Oh, is n''t it dreadful, mamma?
37020Did you cry all day for her?"
37020Do any of us really understand the child''s attitude of mind towards its doll?
37020Do not the words"long, long ago,"when we use them in telling a child a story, still carry with them for our ears a strangely far- off sound?
37020Do we not indeed in saying that they are for the greater part groundless say also that they are"fanciful"?
37020Do you suppose we will ever have one here?"
37020He can as little understand this as the beginning of things, and so he will ask:"Where does the sea swim to?"
37020He then asked his mother,"Is n''t he my own brother?"
37020Hence we can understand one little fellow asking his father,"How_ is_ it that when we put our hand into the water we do n''t make a hole in it?"
37020How far, one wonders, does this process of transformation of external objects go in the case of imaginative children?
37020How is it, one is disposed to ask, that most children, at any rate, have their imagination laid hold of, and fired to a white heat, by mere words?
37020In most cases, too, there is some slight amount of critical inspection, as when she asks,"Where is papa''s nose?"
37020In this bold sweep of inquiry a child is apt to go back to the absolute beginnings of things, as when he asks,"Who made God?"
37020Is n''t that a pretty name?"
37020It has been pointed out by a French writer that the form of question:"What is this?"
37020It takes the well- known forms,"Why?"
37020It was a simple movement of childish thought when a little school- girl answered the question of the Inspector,"What is an average?"
37020Let us in judging of this pitiless"why?"
37020May it not be that the more thoughtful sort of child reasons in this way?
37020Naughty it is, no doubt, in a measure; but is it quite fairly branded as lying, that is, as a serious attempt to deceive?
37020Nevertheless, I suspect that a child''s"why?"
37020Nothing perhaps in child utterance is better worth interpreting, hardly anything more difficult to interpret, than this simple- looking little"why?"
37020One day playing with her dolls she asked her mother:"Mother, am_ I_ real, or only a pretend like my dolls?"
37020Or as another boy of eight put it to a distinguished biologist,"Mr.--, Mr.--, if God wanted me to be good, and I would n''t be good, who would win?"
37020Our leading questions, as when we say,"Is n''t this pretty?"
37020Similarly children asked by other inquirers,"What is a tree?"
37020Similarly when things are endowed with life and their own purpose, as in asking,"Why does the wind blow?"
37020Some of it, indeed, as when a little American asked her mother:"Mamma, why ai n''t Edna Belle( her baby sister) me, and why ai n''t I Edna Belle?"
37020The hard- pressed mother knows that a child''s"why?"
37020The question,"Who made God?"
37020The same little stickler for verbal accuracy, when his nurse asked him,"Are you going to build your bricks, baby?"
37020The same thing is illustrated in the question of another little boy,"Can they( the fish) breathe with their moufs under water?"
37020The typical form of this line of questioning is"What?"
37020The younger exclaimed in a highly shocked tone:"Oh, Maud( or was it''Mabel''?
37020They might be, might n''t they?"
37020This is illustrated in the question of a little boy:"Where was I a hundred years ago?
37020Was this playful punning or a half- serious attempt to correct a misstatement?
37020What, it may be asked, is the explanation of this quaint childish thought?
37020When there_ was_ no egg, I mean, where_ did_ the hen come from?"
37020When, for example, a child asks,"Why is there such a lot of dust?"
37020When, for example, punishment has been inflicted and its inflicter, relenting, asks:"Are you sorry?"
37020Whence comes the perennial charm, the undying popularity, of the hoop?
37020Where was I before I was born?"
37020Who can resist a child''s hungry demand for a story?
37020Who that has tried to instruct the small child of three or four does not know the long shrill whine- like sound of this question?
37020and why do n''t we leave off eating and drinking?"
37020and"Where will to- morrow come from?"
37020for"Ca n''t I be forgiven?"
37020how do you spell that word?"
37020often means,"What is it called?"
37020or"Are n''t you sorry?"
37020or"Where does the wet(_ e.g._, on the pavement after rain) go to?"
37020or"Where does the wind go to?"
37020or,"What was there before God?"
17268What are the little things?
17268What?
17268What?

27790Again, if another thoughtful and well disposed child sees a companion severely punished for telling a lie, the question,"What does that teach me?"
27790And being asked,''Whence he drew that lesson?''
27790Another being asked what she should do, when involved in a quarrel with troublesome companions?
27790Another boy being asked,''If you should become rich, what would be your duty to the poor?''
27790As, for example, it might be asked,"If you had accidentally broken a pane of glass, and your parents asked you who did it, what should you do?"

27790Because Jesus went with his parents.--Would it be right for you to go out of church during the time of the service?
27790Because the bones are easily broken in frosty weather.--When heated and feverish in a close room, what should be done?
27790But if the teacher shall immediately add,"What does that teach you?"
27790But the question which will be asked here is,"Are children capable of all this?"
27790But where were there any such principles established by the philosopher for the guidance of the teacher?
27790Can we doubt that, in like manner, the most rigid economy of time and labour ought to be adopted in the art of teaching?
27790Does Nature then put less value on moral integrity, than on worldly prudence?
27790Does the other follow him?
27790For example, he may ask,"If a companion wanted a sight of your book, what should you do?"
27790For if, in either case, after the words have been read or repeated, the child is asked,"What did God make?"
27790From what bondage were they saved?
27790He must then be asked,"Who has a dog?"
27790In the Experiment in London, a child was asked,"When you live with brothers and sisters who are wicked, what should you do?"
27790In the same way, when our Lord repeatedly says,"Have ye not read?"
27790It may be asked,"What child will ever be able to do this?"
27790It may be_ directly_ from some of the lessons drawn, such as,"Why is it inconvenient to handle hot irons?"
27790Mr Gall gave us the announcement that_''Joseph and Mary worshipped God in public_,''and asked for one or two lessons from this?
27790No.--Why?
27790The first great question with the Educationist then should be,"Does Nature ever teach?"
27790The pupil therefore ought early to be trained of himself to supplement the question,"What does this teach me?"
27790The words,"What is that?"
27790These questions will be,"Who died?"
27790To illustrate this, we shall instance a few cases of every day occurrence, in which the question,"What does this teach you?"
27790What was Judea?
27790When again asked,"From what do you get that lesson?"
27790When the teacher therefore asks,"What did Jesus do?"
27790Who brought them into Judea?
27790Who conducted them through the wilderness?
27790Who dwelt there?
27790Who was their progenitor?
27790Why not by the mouth?
27790Why then does a fire blown with the mouth burn at all?
27790Why?
27790Yes.--Why?
27790and afterwards,"For whom did Jesus die?"
27790and how is the art to be cultivated, so that it may, to the fullest extent, be benefited by the science?"
27790and"For whom did Jesus die?"
27790and"What has Bob?"
27790and,"Why did God make all things?"
27790or,"What can I learn from this?"
27790or,"What did the birds of the air do?"
27790or,"What is said of the seed sown by the way side?"

31067Are you, as a teacher, growing?

31067He might then go on with some such questions as these:_ T._ What circumstance is mentioned as showing how very hungry he must have been?

31067Is it not solely on authority and by example?
31067Is there not something false and rotten in the prevailing sentiment on this subject among young persons at school?
31067Is this standard of recitation too high?
31067Is this wise?
31067Let a man go back and ask himself, What actual scriptural knowledge have I gained by the sermons of the last six months?
31067May they not become in some sense mechanical and automatic, so as to require no intervention of the will?

31067Now what is the result?
31067Now, when Jesus had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward a---- what?
31067Of what use were parents or teachers, in instructing a child which required proof for every statement that father, mother, or teacher gives?

31067When Dr. Johnson was asked,"Who is the most miserable man?"

34257Above all, where is the Catholic whose heart is not enlarged by such contemplation?
34257And are not intellectual delights akin to those religion brings?
34257And does not this make the world lean to the side of those who would eliminate God from nature?
34257And in what way shall we best accomplish this task?
34257And is not religion itself a kind of celestial education, which trains the soul to godlike life?
34257And is not the Bible God''s word?
34257And is not the Blessed Saviour the Eternal Word?
34257And is not the Gospel the Word, which, like an electric thrill, runs to the ends of the world?
34257And what has been the issue of all their disputes but hatreds and sects, persecutions and wars?
34257And what passion gives better promise of blessings to one''s self and to one''s fellow- men?
34257And who shall so clothe it, if not he who has the freest, the most flexible, the clearest, the best disciplined mind?
34257And yet, since man''s heart is the home of contradictions, is it not also true to say that he is naturally religious?
34257Are corn and beef and iron the only good and useful things?
34257Are not the primal virtues, those which make life good and fair and which are a woman''s glory,--are they not humble and quiet and unobtrusive?
34257Are we but cattle to be stalled and fed?
34257Are we not human because we think and admire, and are exalted in the presence of what is infinitely true and divinely fair?
34257But is it feasible?
34257But what true believer thinks himself excused from effort, because Christ has declared that the gates of hell shall not prevail against His Church?
34257Can the worm at thy feet recognize thy superiority?
34257Could it by any chance make them as bad as it makes men?
34257Do not public men, like public women, sell themselves, though in a different way?
34257Do women themselves, those, at least, in whom the woman soul, which draws us on and upward, is most itself, desire that the vote be given them?
34257Does not political life, as it exists in our democracy, tend to corrupt both voters and office- seekers?
34257Does this system include moral training?
34257Had none of them lived, how should we see and understand that man is Godlike and that God is truth and love?
34257Have not those who mistake their crotchets for Nature''s laws invaded our schools?
34257How often in the history of nations and of religions is not outward splendor the mark of inward decay?
34257How shall he who cares not for his better self care for his country?
34257How shall we find the secret from which hope of such success will spring?
34257How then is it possible to look with complacency on a world in which multitudes of human beings are condemned to the work of the ox and the ass?

34257If they rush into the arena of noisy and vulgar strife, will not the evil be increased?
34257Is it conceivable that a thinker, or a believer, or a scholar, or an investigator should wrangle in the spirit of a pothouse politician?
34257Is it not always the same story?
34257Is it not easy to believe that to a loving soul in an all- chaste body the unseen world may lie open to view?
34257Is it not enough that thou hast truth and justice?
34257Is it not largely a life of ca nt, pretence, and hypocrisy, of venality, corruption, and selfishness, of lying, abuse, and vulgarity?
34257Is it not the very bloom and fragrance, not only of the highest religious faith, but also of the best culture?
34257Is it right?
34257Is it true?
34257Is not his father a divine man, whose mere word drives away all fear and fills him with confidence?
34257Is not reverence a part of all the sweetest and purest feelings which bind us to father and mother, to friends and home and country?

34257May not the meanest flower that blows bring thoughts that lie too deep for tears?
34257May we not take this for a principle,--to believe that God does everything, and then to act as though He left everything for us to do?
34257Now, if this is the attitude of wise and strong men, how much more should it not be that of a wise and strong people?
34257Or this: Since grace supposes nature, the growth and strength of the Church is not wholly independent of the natural endowments of her ministers?
34257Read the history of controversy and ask thyself whether there is in it the spirit of Christ, the meek and lowly One?
34257Reason and conscience are God''s most precious gifts; and what does He ask but that we make use of them?
34257Shall our Chautauquas and summer schools help to foster this superstition?

34257What need is there of a hollow phrase when the appeal to truth is obvious?
34257What passion can be more innocent than the passion for knowledge?

34257Why should the sorrow or the sin or the loss of any human being give me pleasure?
34257Will not the political woman lose something of the sacred power of the wife and mother?

34257_ Numquid omnes doctores?_ asks St. Paul.
19056And does not the same fact distinguish a learned community from an ignorant community?
19056And if an ignorant man is not the best man upon a farm, is he likely to be so in a shop or mill?
19056And if not, why the distinction?
19056And if so, is not learning a general remedy for the inequalities among men?
19056And is it more important in a monarchy than in a republic that the ruler be intelligent, virtuous, and in all respects qualified for his duties?
19056And may not the same suggestion be made of every other branch of business?
19056And shall we give a little running water, and turn aside or choke up the streams of knowledge?
19056And what else could have been expected?
19056And who is to judge of these attainments?
19056And who shall estimate how much their reform adds, in its results, to the wealth, the intellectual, moral, and religious character, of the state?
19056And why should those be encouraged to think who have no right to act?
19056And, if it furnish certain means of escape for one man, will it not furnish equally certain means of escape for many?
19056And, if so, has he not participated in the general prosperity?
19056And, in considering yet further the question,"How can the advantages of a high- school education be best secured?"
19056Are you going to train them for statesmen?
19056But can any one object, that, after ten years''imprisonment, this man was allowed to try his fortunes once more among his fellow- men?
19056But can we acquire a knowledge of things, either divine or human, unless we cultivate our powers of observation?
19056But how is the boy or girl of such a family to rise above these circumstances, and throw off these weights?
19056But if this, in a broad view, seem utopian, can we not agree that learning is the only means by which a poor man can escape from his poverty?
19056But what to the sick man are walls of wood, brick, granite, or marble?
19056But who knows that a hundred years hence they will be proper or acceptable at all?
19056But why, in the eye of the state, shall the man stand as the head of the family, rather than the woman?
19056But you are going to fit them to be-- what?
19056But, it may be asked, what, specifically stated, shall the work of the agents be?
19056But, it may be asked, will you call that a school which is merely an assembly of adults without a teacher?
19056Does it lead you to contemplate with satisfaction the prospect that your son is to be a farmer also, and that your daughter is to be a farmer''s wife?
19056Else, why the custom among farmers''sons of making their escape, at the earliest moment possible, from the labors and restraints of the farm?
19056Have you read the last novel?
19056He would ask the house, if the fathers were to be deprived of the earnings of the children, how could they provide bread for them?
19056How are competent persons to be selected and qualified?
19056How have these changes been wrought?
19056If mind is the capital,--the producing force of society,--what shall we say of the person or community that neglects its improvement?
19056If this be so, what limits can we assign to the work, or how estimate the duty, of those intrusted with the education of the young?
19056In the House of Commons, Mr. Drummond opposes a national system of education in this wise:"And, pray, what do you propose to rear your youth for?
19056In what works are the so- called Christian governments principally engaged?
19056Is adult life, even among the educated classes, equal to a description of the common animals, trees, fruits and flowers?
19056Is any one willing to give an ignorant farm laborer as much as he is ready to pay for the services of an intelligent man?
19056Is it merely the physical force, the animal life contained in a given quantity of muscle and bone?
19056Is it not, that in a good school the prevailing public sentiment is on the side of knowledge and its acquisition?
19056Is it said that there is occasionally, if not frequently, a divided judgment in the household upon those questions that are decided by the ballot?
19056Is not woman, then, the equal of man?
19056May there not be suspicion of partiality?
19056Now, can any doubt that these classes, as classes, ought to be separated?
19056Now, what does this language of Mr. Drummond mean?
19056Of all the living authors, are there two so alike that they can be considered competitors or rivals?
19056On what moral grounds, then, does the right of taxation for educational objects rest?
19056Or what more worthy of his reasonable nature?"
19056Or, in other words, is it of any consequence to the employer whether the laborer is ignorant or intelligent?
19056Shall we not adopt measures which shall bind, in grateful alliance, the youth to the governors of the commonwealth?
19056The question in a public sense is not,"From what family or class shall the pin- maker or the statesman be taken?"
19056Was there ever anything more absurd?
19056We have substituted mind for physical force, and the question is, which is the more economical?
19056What do we do where we have a correct system?
19056What is meant by_ means_ of education?
19056What is the distinguishing fact between a good school and a poor one?
19056What more excellent and lovely in itself?
19056What more useful and becoming for a man?
19056What shall that course be?
19056When may we expect a supply of such persons?
19056When the child is a member of the school, what shall be done with him?
19056When we write the sign or utter the sound which symbolizes_ Teacher_, what figure, being, or qualities, are brought before us?
19056When we_ hire_, or, what is, for this inquiry, the same thing,_ buy_ that commodity called,_ labor_, what do we expect to get?
19056Where else is the field of statesmanship so large, or the necessity for able statesmen so great?
19056Who can doubt the utility of associations of merchants, mechanics, and farmers?
19056Who can say what share of responsibility for the future of America is upon the teachers of the land?
19056Who does not see that the child is incited and encouraged and stimulated by every sentiment to which you should appeal?
19056Who will paint with words the elm or the oak so that its species will be known while the name is withheld?
19056Why should the pages of a spelling- book, grammar, geography, or arithmetic, be the measure of each pupil''s capacity?
19056Why?
19056Why?
19056Will a college in each state answer the demand for agricultural education now existing?
19056Will any one say that all this inures to capital, and leaves the laborer comparatively unrewarded?
19056Would it not be better to measure and assign his time, and then require him to abandon all thought of the matter?
19056_ Is all education demoralizing?_ An affirmative answer to this question implies so much that no rational man can accept it.
19056give free counsel to the ignorant or distressed, when he might easily be qualified to act as his own counsellor?

474A bargain is a bargain,said the Piper;"for the last time,--will you give me my thousand guineas?"
474Alas,said Arthur,"mine own dear father and brother, why kneel ye to me?"
474Are you my brother?
474Are you my brother?
474Are you my brother?
474Are you ready?
474Are you wanting a boy?
474Beautiful birch- tree,he said,"will you let me live in your warm branches until the springtime comes?"
474But how, at the end of a hard morning''s work, can I be interested in a story I have told twenty times before?
474But may I stay all winter?
474But who told you you were King?
474But,said the prince,"do you not look when you wake up in the morning?"
474Dear Prince,she said,"is that the sun?"
474Do n''t you know this is Hamelin town?
474Fight-- did you say fight?
474Ha, ha,laughed Schwartz,"do you suppose I brought the water up here for you?"
474Hole? 474 How can I tell that?"
474How dare I speak to you?
474How do you do?
474How? 474 I am faint with thirst,"said the old man;"will you give me some of that water?"
474I''ll have you, my fine boy,cries he;"how will you die, then?"
474Is it you who made the tracks in my trail?
474It''s certainly very queer,said the old gentleman;"did you see nothing in the pasture, Billy?"
474Just how did the little pig get into his house?
474Little girl, little girl, what gave she you?
474May I touch every leaf?
474No, but truly,said the Angel,"who is it?"
474Now, where shall we have little Red Riding Hood''s house? 474 O beautiful willow- tree,"said the little bird,"will you let me live in your warm branches until the springtime comes?"
474O big oak- tree,said the little bird,"will you let me live in your warm branches until the springtime comes?"
474O little girl,said the child,"wo n''t you give me your dress?
474Oh yes,said the pig,"I will go; what time?"
474Oh, poor mother,said the prince,"what is the matter?"
474Was he as big as that?
474Was he bigger than that?
474Was n''t it wonderful?
474What are the wages?
474What are you doitherin''about?
474What do you want, little brother?
474What do you want, little brother?
474What do you want, little brother?
474What have you got?
474What is fire?
474What is that?
474What is wonderful about that?
474What makes you so kind to me, little Mouse?
474What of that?
474What shall we do?
474What time do you mean to go?
474What was it the little crocodile said?
474What was that link in the chain of circumstances which brought the wily fox to confusion?
474What will it be?
474What will you give me,said the Hen- Wife,"and I''ll very soon part them?"
474What''s the good of it?
474What''s ti- ly- ta- lies?
474What,said she,"shall I do with this little sixpence?
474What_ right_?
474Where?
474Where?
474Wherefore I?
474Who are you?
474Who ever heard of a lion fighting a gnat? 474 Who is this that you are beating?"
474Who is this,he cried,"that goes before me to the hunting, and makes so great a stride?
474Who told ME?
474Who will be the wolf?
474Why, Hamelin town is where the Pied Piper came,they told us;"surely you know about the Pied Piper?"
474Why, everyone acknowledges it-- don''t I tell you that everyone is afraid of me?
474Why, you tiny, little, mean, insignificant creature you, how DARE you speak to ME?
474Why,said the parrot,"here are my two cakes, if you want them?"
474Why?
474Will you change clothes with me, and I''ll give you boot?
474Will you lend me that Little Mill?
474Will you lend me the Little Mill?
474Will your reverence tell me the baby''s name again?
474Wo n''t you give me your little hood, to keep my head warm?
474Would you like to get rid of them? 474 You agree to the conditions, then?
474You can?
474You-- you-- YOU deny my right as King?
474_ What do_ you_ think it was?... 474 _ What_ about the Pied Piper?"
474''Over in that corner,''Katie?
474( You remember, two cakes were all he wanted?)
474),"See here, what do we pay you your salary for?
474*****"Little girl, little girl, where have you been?"
474A strong Lion-- and what overcame him?
474And in the same way the people asked the little lame child,"What made you follow the music?"
474And that youthful audience?
474And then the Chief Man, who was the worst of all, would come and say,"Eh, how do you feel now?
474And what, of this, is best accomplished by this means and no other?
474And when they came to the mountain top, and saw the beautiful rice- crop all in flames, beyond help, they cried bitterly,"Who has done this thing?
474And where shall the grandmother''s cottage be?"
474Are their images simple without being humdrum?
474Are they nice apples?"
474Are they repetitive?
474Are you good?"
474At a later stage, varying with the standard of capacity of different classes, we find the temper of mind which asks continually,"Is that true?"
474But the little yellow man said,"Gluck, do you know who I am?
474But when they came fiercely round the old man, with"Why?
474By a cut with the sword, a blow with the fist, or a swing by the back?"
474Can you imagine what a queer household it would be, where the baby laughed and crowed all night, and slept all day?
474Did you see nothing in the pasture?"
474Does he think to put me to shame?"
474He ate all the four hundred and ninety- eight cakes, and then he looked round and said:--"I''m hungry; have n''t you anything to eat?"
474He looked at the piece of bread in her hand, and said,"Will you give me your bread, little girl?
474He stared so hard that the little white rosebud did not know what to do; so she looked up at him and said,"Why are you looking at me so hard?"
474How could the imagination create new worlds, save out of the material of the old?
474How did it happen?"
474How do you feel now?"
474How do you feel now?"
474How good?
474How much of the text is pure description?
474How?
474I wonder why we so often use a preposterous voice,--a super- sweetened whine, in talking to children?
474Is it a text- book of science, an appendix to the geography, an introduction to the primer of history?
474Is it that the effort to realise an ideal of gentleness and affectionateness overreaches itself in this form of the grotesque?
474Is she a proper person to introduce here, and what are her titles to merit?
474Is there one of us who has not laughed himself out of some absurd complexity of over- anxiety with a sudden recollection of"clever Alice"and her fate?
474Is this, as some would have us believe, a bad habit of an ignorant old world?
474Now, will you go with the Pig Brother, or will you come back with me, and be a tidy child?"
474One asks oneself, What is the story?
474Or can the Fairy Tale justify her popularity with truly edifying and educational results?
474Presently the spruce- tree saw him, and said,"Where are you going, little bird?"
474Said he,"DEAR ME, WHERE IS MY TOADSTOOL?"
474Small as he was, little Franz had seen enough to make him think,"What_ now_, I wonder?"
474So the little pig got up at five, and got the turnips before the wolf came crying:--"Little pig, are you ready?"
474So they all came together and went to the town hall, and they said to the Mayor( you know what a mayor is?
474The cat ate up the two cakes, and then he licked his chops and said,"I am beginning to get an appetite; have you anything to eat?"
474The mouse ran up, looked him over, and soliloquised in precise language,--evidently remembered,"What is the matter with the lion?
474The next day the wolf came again, and said to the little pig:--"Little pig, there is a fair in town this afternoon; will you go?"
474The one who conquers shall be King?"
474The town was so far away-- if they ran for help it would be too late; what should he do?
474This one shivered with the cold, and she said to the little girl,"Wo n''t you give me your jacket, little girl?"
474To give joy; in and through the joy to stir and feed the life of the spirit: is not this the legitimate function of the story in education?
474Was n''t it wise of the dear little dog to go and work for other people when her own work was taken away?
474Was n''t that a lovely trimming?
474We were so surprised that after a while,"Why do you have rats in your shops?"
474What are you good for, if you ca n''t do a little thing like getting rid of these rats?
474What are you making that horrible noise about?"
474What are you, a little child, that you try to keep me out?
474What can ail them, at all?"
474What can be left out?
474What can we reasonably expect to accomplish?
474What can you do?
474What could be the matter?
474What could it be that came so smoothly,--rustle-- rustle-- without any feet?
474What could it be?
474What could the Christ- child do?
474What have you been doing in the meantime?"
474What is a story, essentially?
474What keener teacher is there than the kindly satire?
474What more penetrating and suggestive than the humour of exaggerated statement of familiar tendency?
474What right have you to be here, disturbing folks at this time of night?"
474What shall we attempt to accomplish by stories in the schoolroom?
474What will you give me if I rid your town of rats?"

30433How could the same powerlessness, joined to the same passions, produce such different effects in the two ages, if the primary cause were not changed?
30433How often have we seen unhappy creatures disgusted with life because of some dreadful and incurable malady?
30433I grant it; but what are these men but children spoiled by their education?
30433I recollect seeing somewhere a text- book on geography which began thus:"What is the world?
30433I want to put up a swing between those two trees; would four yards of rope be enough for it?
30433I wonder if we could find out where it is without seeing it?
30433If he could choose between being my pupil or yours, do you think he would hesitate a moment?
30433If he thinks you do not know he will say to himself,"Why should I disclose my fault?"
30433If in men''s actions you see only purely external and physical changes, what do you learn from history?
30433If in my absence some anonymous mischief has been done, I will beware of accusing Émile, or of asking"Was it you?
30433In learning the things represented, would they not also learn the signs?
30433In order to have two, he must be able to compare ideas; and how can he do this when he is scarcely able to grasp them?
30433In the prolonged torrent of words with which you incessantly weary them, do you think there are none they may misunderstand?
30433Indeed, what use would he have at that age for the power to reason?
30433Is it nothing to skip, to play, to run about all day long?
30433Is not the helpless, unknowing child at your mercy?
30433Is not this more than enough to illustrate the fact and to find out the refraction?
30433Is there anything more absurd than the pains we take in teaching them to walk?
30433Let me see your watch; what time is it?
30433Looking at Émile, who is watching my motions, I say to him,"Why did the stone fall?"
30433May I venture to state here the greatest, the most important, the most useful rule in all education?
30433Must not such a cruel constraint have an influence upon their temper as well as upon their constitution?
30433Nature has made children to be loved and helped; has she made them to be obeyed and feared?
30433Now if you have the appliances, and know just how to use them, are you not master of the operation?
30433Of what use is it to write on their minds a catalogue of signs that represent nothing to them?
30433Of what use would these last be to him, since a child is not yet an active member of society?
30433Otherwise, what motive will induce them to learn it?
30433Pliny?
30433Shall I make your child unhappy if I expose him only to those inconveniences he is perfectly willing to endure?
30433Shall we never learn to put ourselves in the child''s place?
30433Since with years of reason civil bondage[5] begins, why anticipate it by slavery at home?
30433Then they imagine they are speaking Latin, and who is there to contradict them?
30433There is a very wide brook; how can we cross it?
30433They all scarcely know one another; how then should they love one another?
30433They can scarcely move themselves at all; how can they lame themselves?
30433They say that in the other house our room will be twenty- five feet square; do you think that will suit us?
30433True; but do you not see that, as soon as the mind has attained to ideas, all judgment is reasoning?
30433Twelve o''clock?
30433We are very hungry; which of those two villages yonder can we reach soonest, and have our dinner?"
30433We have not yet brought ourselves to the point of swaddling puppies or kittens; do we see that any inconvenience results to them from this negligence?
30433We want to throw a line from our windows and catch some fish in the moat around the house; how many fathoms long ought the line to be?
30433We were noticing the position of the forest north of Montmorency, when he interrupted me with the eager question,"What is the use of knowing that?"
30433Were they of less account when they reached manhood?
30433What child of twelve does not know all you are going to teach yours, and all that his masters have taught him besides?"
30433What does it matter to me whether you do what I require or not?
30433What had he done to us that we should try to throw discredit on his performances and take away his livelihood?
30433What has become of my labor, the sweet reward of all my care and toil?
30433What has he to hide from you?
30433What higher wisdom is there for you than humanity?
30433What is so wonderful in the art of attracting a wax duck, that the honor should be worth the price of an honest man''s living?
30433What is this object?
30433What observer can at the first glance seize upon the child''s peculiar traits?
30433What results from this?
30433What wonderful book is this?
30433What would you think of a man who, in order to use his whole life to the best advantage, would not sleep?
30433Whence arises this unreasonable custom of swaddling children?
30433Whence arises this weakness of ours but from the inequality between our desires and the strength we have for fulfilling them?
30433Who among us has not at times looked back with regret to the age when a smile was continually on our lips, when the soul was always at peace?
30433Who assures you that you spare him anything when you deal him afflictions with so lavish a hand?
30433Who can insure their being always at hand when we need them?
30433Who can tell what will become of you then?
30433Who does not remember their forcible, pithy sayings?
30433Who has robbed me of my own?
30433Who has taken my beans away from me?
30433Who knows how many children die on account of the extravagant prudence of a father or of a teacher?
30433Who supposes that a child thus ruled by anger, a prey to furious passions, can ever be happy?
30433Who, then, shall educate my child?
30433Why did n''t you think of this capital plan before?"
30433Why do you cause him more unhappiness than he can bear, when you are not sure that the future will compensate him for these present evils?
30433Why do you give them the useless trouble of learning them twice?
30433Why do you oppose her?
30433Why is there this difference?
30433Why is this?
30433Why is this?
30433Why should a child educated naturally and in perfect freedom, tell a falsehood?
30433Why should he not tell you everything as frankly as to his little playmate?
30433Why should they consider crying a fault, when they find that it avails so much?
30433Why should we rob these little innocent creatures of the enjoyment of a time so brief, so transient, of a boon so precious, which they can not misuse?
30433Why then do you complain?
30433Why waste time in instructions which always come of their own accord, and cost neither care nor trouble?
30433Why will you fill with bitterness and sorrow these fleeting years which can no more return to them than to you?
30433Why would you injure the studies suitable to him at his age by giving him those of an age he may never attain?
30433Why, instead of using all these representations, do you not begin by showing him the object itself, so as to let him know what you are talking of?
30433Will it be larger than this?
30433Will the ladder in the barn do?
30433Would one of the planks in the yard be long enough?
30433Would you recall every one to his highest duties?
30433[ 13] But what do we mean by facts?
30433[ 23] Was it not just that, as a reward, he was allowed to devour the beast that had done its best to devour him?
30433and are they of no use while the others are employed?
30433and that the historic and the moral are so far asunder that the one can be understood without the other?
30433is it nothing to be happy?
30433must we always use machines?
26919''Are you glad to see me, girls?'' 26919 ''Do n''t you know?''
26919''Do you wished I was hanged?'' 26919 ''Like it?''
26919''Oh, Miss Belle,''piped up Annie,''how do you make''em?'' 26919 ''Well, would n''t you like a taste?''
26919''What all''s the matter?'' 26919 ''Would you like to know?''
26919Am I next?
26919And where is Genoa, Ella?
26919Are you taking good care of your beets, peas, corn or garden? 26919 Are you to do the teaching?"
26919But how is it possible?
26919But must sex hygiene be taught in the school?
26919Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?
26919Do you know why? 26919 Do you mean to say,"asked Jem,"that I could teach Dad anything about corn- raisin''?"
26919How are you getting along with the contests?
26919How can the necessary subjects be taught in two- thirds of the time now devoted to them? 26919 I?"
26919Is he better?
26919Is n''t that good for a start?
26919Money prizes?
26919Sure enough,said the teacher,"would the fact that he was a warrior naturally influence his thoughts?"
26919That sounds strong, does n''t it? 26919 Well, class?"
26919Well, well,cried Miss Belle, cordially, as Joe stopped, glad of any excuse not to go,"where are you bound for?
26919What do they become?
26919What was his business?
26919What would Corot say about that?
26919Where was he born?
26919Why are we so active in co- operating with the schools? 26919 Why was he a sailor, Edith?"
26919Will anyone volunteer to tell in a few words the principal points which Miss Sage made?
26919Yes,said the teacher,"you can, and, what is more, you will, wo n''t you?"
26919You raise an acre of corn? 26919 You would like to come here to see how I do things?"
26919''Are we really of any assistance to them after all?''
26919''Ever taste them?''
26919''Is it worth their while to come to our school?''
26919''What is our school doing to help their function in life?''
26919A Department of Agriculture in a school?
26919A fantastic theory?
26919A seventh grade girl had read the Psalm beginning,"Who shall ascend unto the hill of the Lord, or who shall stand in His holy place?"
26919After an affirmative answer from the class:"Where do we find any evidence of that in this Psalm, George?"
26919After asking what a psalm was, and who wrote the Psalms, the teacher asked:"Who was David?"
26919After straightening out the history the teacher next asked:"For what was David noted?"
26919And the result?
26919Are there grades in our large American cities where conditions similar to those just portrayed may be found?
26919Are they getting what they pay for?
26919Are they receiving a fair return?
26919Are they to be efficient workers and housekeepers?
26919Are we not already crowded to death?"
26919Are you diggin''graves for''possums?"
26919Are you the one?"
26919At what seaport would our vessels land in the British Isles?
26919By what method could this wheel horse of reform best be harnessed to the car of educational progress?
26919CHAPTER I THE NEW BASIS FOR EDUCATION[16] I Can There Be a New Basis?
26919Can There Be a New Basis?
26919Can there be a new basis for education?
26919Can this be the school system of which our forefathers dreamed when they established a universal, free education nearly a hundred years ago?
26919Could these derelicts, after one year of special care, take their places in the regular freshman high school work?
26919Could you conceive of a more stinging rebuke to an institution from a man who is making it his business to know its innermost workings?
26919Could you recognize in this fascinating task the dreaded English composition and spelling of your childhood days?
26919Did you ever go to a school to listen to a phonograph?"
26919Did you?
26919Discipline?
26919Do many of the boys from this country become sailors?"
26919Do you begin to suspect the reason for the interest which the big folks take in the doings of Page County''s little folks?
26919Do you know the biggest burden we have to carry-- the most determined enemy we have to fight?
26919Do you know what I''m goin''to do tonight?
26919Does anyone wonder that the boy should feel so kindly over attentions to which he was not accustomed?
26919Does the foundation upon which education rests really change?
26919For what other purpose should the school exist?
26919GEOGRAPHY, FIFTH A What highways of trade will be used for shipping oranges from San Francisco to Columbus, Ga., by way of the Panama Canal?
26919GEOGRAPHY, FIFTH B What is the chief industry of the people of Columbus, and why?
26919GEOGRAPHY, FOURTH A Why does the United States carry on more trade with the British Isles than with Germany?
26919GEOGRAPHY, FOURTH B What products may be sent to us from New England?
26919Have you ever attended a one- room country school?
26919How can we disagree regarding so plain a matter?
26919How could they be shown?
26919How is this done?
26919How many miles is this, approximately?
26919How many of each does each child receive?
26919How many of you mature men and women could have done a better piece of work than Dorothy Hall, nine and a half years old?
26919How shall the school make the farm and the small country town better living places for the men and women of to- morrow?
26919How would you prove your point?
26919I was constantly asking myself:''Where do these folks come in?''
26919If he hands the clerk$ 1.00, how much change will he receive?
26919If they were shipped from Portsmouth, N. H., on what bodies of water would they travel?
26919Insistently the question is repeated,"What are its effects upon the problems of to- day?"
26919Is it strange that he should have come back to school with a firm resolve to be decent to his teacher?
26919Is it to pay teachers''salaries, to build new school houses, and to print text- books by the million?
26919Is n''t that awful?"
26919Is not that a refreshing sentiment from a superintendent of city schools?
26919Is the educational system of one age necessarily unfitted to provide for the educational needs of the next?
26919Is the picture overdrawn?
26919It is, then, that the unfolding of a human being in body and mind, may we superintend and regulate it with no preparation whatever?
26919Mabel Gorman asks,"Does it pay the farmer to protect the birds?"
26919Need I say that the American Pin Company sent immediately twenty duplicates of the desired pamphlet?
26919One day a little girl up and asked me:"''Say, Miss Belle, what may you all be eatin''?''
26919Out of such a school may we not well develop harmony and keen life?
26919Second, what is its effect on the farmers?
26919Shall Child or Subject Matter Come First?
26919Some Honest Facts 17 V. Have We Fulfilled the Object of Education?
26919Such is the triumph, but whose the glory?
26919THIRD A If Isabel''s 2 pair of shoes cost$ 4, how much will shoes for all the girls in the class cost?
26919Teaching the reading lesson of"Eyes and No Eyes"one teacher asked her class:"Well, children, what did you see on your way to school this morning?
26919That is virile work, is it not?
26919The authorities protested,--"Two thousand technical students?
26919The modern schoolmaster asks:"How can I direct?"
26919The next day I went into every grade, saying to the children:"''What was the matter?
26919The old- fashioned schoolmaster asked:"How can I compel?"
26919The point at which these subjects are introduced and the amount of time devoted to them depends upon-- what do you think?
26919The question is, therefore, Shall they be good miners or bad ones?
26919The regulations prescribed in the course of study?
26919The result?
26919Then why not have school in the summer time?
26919Then why was my friend forced to choose between the wreck of his daughter''s health and the disarrangement of a bit of school machinery?
26919Then, turning to the farmers:"Did you ever go to school to get your horses shod?
26919This is your first time in this class, is n''t it?"
26919Though many a one falls asleep over the tasks, who shall say that the spirit is not willing?
26919To what extent must the school be a center for social activity and social enthusiasm?
26919V Have We Fulfilled the Object of Education?
26919VI Marguerite What wonder?
26919VI Shall Child or Subject Matter Come First?
26919VII How It Works Out There are two questions that naturally arise: First, what is the effect of this work on the children?
26919What are community needs if not the needs for manhood and womanhood?
26919What are the ingredients of successful farmers and farmers''wives?
26919What did you see, Elmer?"
26919What do you do?"
26919What is it that our children must have before they can acquire anything else?
26919What more ideal basis for rural geography?
26919What more natural procedure than for the school to buy the lumber and have the boys do the work?
26919What more natural than to organize a Department of Agriculture?
26919What more natural than to write a few words of introduction and conclusion, and put the whole in book form?
26919What other word describes it adequately?
26919What was his bill?
26919What would a boat coming up the river bring to Columbus?
26919What would it carry back?
26919What would nature say?
26919What would they carry and what would they bring back?
26919What''s done it?"
26919What, think you, was his first move?
26919When at last the loophole appeared:"Gentlemen,"said he,"you''re interested in schools?
26919Where does there exist a more admirable statement of the principle underlying the new education?
26919Where else, then, does the responsibility for such growth and development rest than upon the school?
26919Who shall say that the imparting of such knowledge is not the business of a real school?
26919Why have we established a billion- dollar school system in the United States?
26919Why not?
26919Why should it not be so?
26919Why should not the schools be open, as they are in Gary, day and evening, too?
26919Why should not the social sentiment of a community be crystallized around its schoolhouse, as it has been in Rochester?
26919Why should not the specially able child be taught as thoroughly as the defective one?
26919Why should the mothers and fathers not be organized into"Home and School Leagues,"meeting in the schools as they do on a large scale in Philadelphia?
26919Why then should the school not be open for the child?
26919Why, then, should they be taught mechanics with tools which they can not duplicate on their farms without an unjustifiable extravagance?"
26919Will any one be so absurd as to suppose that she can do them or herself justice?
26919With them, the problem of education shapes itself into this question:"Shall they be well or badly prepared for their work?"
26919XII The High School as a Public Servant Will the high school retain its present form?
26919Yet why marvel?
26919You did n''t come all the way over to ride back with me?"
26919You wish to see the school?
26919You''ll remember?"

473Brahmin, where were you?
473Brother Banyan,said the Brahmin, eagerly,"does it seem to you right or just that this Tiger should eat me, when I set him free from his cage?"
473But have you never been anything different?
473But what of your good deeds,the hermit asked,--"what have you done for God?"
473But would it not be a disgrace for me to harm an innocent creature?
473But,said David,"who is this Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?"
473Ca n''t you see that the door shut me in?
473Cage?
473Can we have made a mistake?
473DO YOU REMEMBER THAT?
473Dear, dear,said the courtiers,"that is very pleasant; does that little gray bird really make all that noise?
473Did you kill the Otter''s babies?
473Did you think you could plant them in the morning?

473Do you think,said the Brahmin,"it is right for this Tiger to eat me, when I set him free from his cage?"
473Have we not heard the sound of hammering every day? 473 Have ye the pot a- bilin''?"
473How can we take you with us?
473How did it happen?
473How do you like shank''s mare?
473I believe maybe I shall learn a good deal from living in the country; do n''t you think so?
473I said,said the Brahmin, raising his voice,"do you think it is fair that the Tiger should eat me, when I set him free from his cage?"
473I think it''s time to go home, now,he said;"do n''t you?"
473May I help?

473So?
473Surely, flowers,said her mother,"and shall we not have a little salad garden in the midst, as they do in England?"
473The blackberry- bush, mamma; what does it say? 473 Then every plant looks like this at first?"

473Will you give me the Emperor''s sceptre for another song?
473Will you stay with me? 473 Would you make a place for me where I''d go hiding?"
473Yes,said his mother;"have you got the little Red Hen?"
473Yes; but I do n''t see any lock,said the little Jackal,"does it lock on the outside?"
473You see--"But I do n''t altogether understand,said the little Jackal,"You''set him free,''you say?"

473And the very first thing she said, when her father told her about it, was,"Oh, may I have a garden?
473And then he added:"The children use abominable language when they play the stories; can that directly aid them to speak good English?"
473And what do you think he did?
473And when the Woodpecker came, he said to him,"Was it you who sounded the war- gong?"
473And when they were alone together the king looked into Robert''s eyes, as he had done before, and said, softly,"Who art thou?"
473As soon as his mother opened the door he said,"Is the kettle boiling?"
473But all the animals were asleep, and nobody at all looked at Little Jack Rollaround except an old White Owl; and all she said was,"Who are you?"
473Could it be weeds?
473Did you hear What happened to Piccola, children dear?
473Do n''t you know that''s no way to carry butter?
473Do you think it right or fair that this Tiger should eat me, when I set him free from a terrible cage?"

18477Could parents better train their children if they made use of psychological principles?
18477Could the qualities of a good teacher-- native and acquired-- be measured by tests and experiments?
18477Do all the papers of one series have some characteristics that enable you to determine from which group they come?

18477If one mental characteristic is of high order, are all the others of high order also?
18477If one were asked,"What is a horse?"
18477If so, do you possess them in a high degree?
18477If you have poor ability, is it a good thing for you to find it out?
18477In how many ways could the teachers improve their work by following psychological principles?
18477In how many ways will the facts learned in this course be of economic use to you in your life?
18477In science, let us always ask, what is the meaning of this fact?
18477In the above, do all come to the same conclusion?
18477In what definite, inherited ways is anger shown?
18477In what sense are stimulus and response bound together?

18477Is there something in the nature of ideas that couples them with certain other ideas and makes them_ always_ suggest the other ideas?
18477Let us now ask the question, why can one remember better words that are connected by logical relations than words that have no such connection?
18477Now, in any given case, what idea will actually come first after I have the idea"horse"?
18477Now, the question arises, if we improve one aspect of memory, does this improve all aspects?
18477Number   1 is sealed up air tight and kept warm?
18477Number   2 is kept open and warm?
18477Of all the tests and experiments previously described in this book, which gives the best indication of success in high school?
18477On the whole, is imitation a good thing or a bad thing?
18477One is a contrast color induced by the other; which one?
18477Or does it happen in words merely?
18477Our question now is, how is this definiteness of connection established?
18477Some of these questions should be suggestive, such as,"What color is the dog?"
18477The first question that arises in connection with attention is, What are the causes of attention?
18477There are four main questions which the science of education must solve:( 1) What is the aim of education?
18477To kill a person?
18477To lie?
18477To what extent do you have control of your emotional states?

19549On the eighth day she asked her brother''what he was helping himself to?'' 19549 Seem"to what part of the child?
19549What is that?
19549When?
19549Where is mamma?
19549Where is the baby in the glass?
19549Where?
19549Who gave you this?
19549Why is he called the sad?
19549Whyis heard by him, as a rule, less often than"What?"
19549With sealing- wax?
19549''And that?
19549''But what is that on the pavement, red?''
19549''What are they like?''
19549''Who is that that has passed us just now?''
19549( Little siskin, where is your little house?
19549( What shall we do to- morrow?)
19549( how tall?)
19549( what is that, pray?)
19549( where) and Wohin?
19549( whither) had the same meaning( that of the French_ où?_), and this as late as in the fourth year.
19549("How tall?")
19549("Wer will unter die Soldaten?")
19549); sometimes_ was?_ four or five times when he had been spoken to.
19549Answer:"Go, I"( i. e.,"Do you stay or go?"
19549Ask,"What is the animal called?"
19549Being asked,"How do you like them?"
19549But, if two, why not several?
19549Does he recognize himself in it( p. 196,_ et seq._)?
19549Finally, he had at this time been taught to respond to the question,"Where is the little rogue?"
19549For it did not require frequent repetition of the question,"How tall is the child?"
19549For previously, when I asked the child as he was eating,"Does it taste good?"
19549For the child, when asked"Where is grandpapa?"
19549For what is the significance of the fact, that"to the child his feet, hands, teeth, seem a plaything foreign to himself"?
19549Further, to the question,"Do you like to sleep in the large room?"
19549Grandpapa?"
19549He asked,"Where is Mima?"
19549He comes out of his father''s room and I ask,"Well, have you said good- night to papa?"
19549He deliberates for as much as twelve seconds when the question is asked him,"Where is the rogue?"
19549He has also for a long time understood the"Where?"
19549He immediately imitated me, and afterward when he was asked"What does mamma do?"
19549He jests:_ Nein, Bergapots_, or,_ What kind of mots are those?_ He will not eat an apple until he has learned what the name of it is.
19549He knows very well who is meant when he is asked,"Where is grandmamma?
19549He now asks questions a good deal in general, especially_ What is that called?_ e. g.,_ What are chestnuts called?_"Horse- chestnuts."
19549He now asks questions a good deal in general, especially_ What is that called?_ e. g.,_ What are chestnuts called?_"Horse- chestnuts."
19549He now asks,_ Where is the dear Jesus?_"In heaven."
19549He saw his image immediately after waking, seemed very much surprised at it, gazed fixedly at it, and when at last I asked,"Where is Axel?"
19549He then slipped a handkerchief over his face and asked her to look again, when she playfully pulled it off and asked,''What is that?''
19549He went to the window and called out,''What is that moving?''
19549How can round and angular be distinguished, when only colors and gross differences of intensity and saturation are perceived?
19549How is it as to the existence and practicability of the nervous conduction, and the genesis of the centers?
19549How is it, now, with the normal child, who is learning to speak?
19549If I ask now,"From whom have you learned that?"
19549If I ask, e. g.,"What does the duck say?"
19549If he is asked"Who is_ I_?"
19549If the child, when he has eaten enough, is asked,"Do you want milk?"
19549If, e. g., I asked,"Where is the nose?"
19549In the eighteenth month,"Where is Omama?"
19549In the eighth month, there is unmistakable understanding of what is said; e. g.,"Where is the tick- tack?"
19549In the eleventh month, at the question"Where is mamma?"
19549In the twentieth month, her mother, after telling her a story, asked,"Who, pray, is this, I?"
19549In the twenty- first month the child laughs at his image in the glass and points to it when I ask,"Where is Axel?"
19549In the_ thirty- first month_ two new questions make their appearance: The child asks,_ Welches Papier nehmen?_( What paper take?)
19549In the_ thirty- first month_ two new questions make their appearance: The child asks,_ Welches Papier nehmen?_( What paper take?)
19549In these already learned co- ordinated movements made upon hearing the words"Please, How tall?
19549It is true that my question,"What is that?"
19549Just so in the case of the question,"Would you rather have the apple or the pear?"
19549Lately, however, he listened very earnestly to the three stanzas of"Möpschen,"and when I asked"What now?"
19549Lately, when he asked for some foolish thing, I said to him,"Sha''n''t I bring the moon for you, too?"
19549On the ten hundred and twenty- eighth day_ warum_( why?)
19549Once I asked him very distinctly,"Where''s the moon?"
19549Once when I said,"How tall?"
19549One thousand and twenty- eighth day,"Why?"
19549Only interrogative word is still"Where?"
19549Only the question,"Where is the thumb?"
19549Only to the questions,"Where is papa?"
19549Or we say,"Will you come?
19549Progress now became pretty rapid, so that at the end of the seventh month the questions,"Where is your eye?
19549Seldom speaks of himself in third person; gradually uses"Du"in address; uses"What?"
19549She also understood simple sentences, such as,"Where is the fire?"
19549So with the frequent question,_ Wie macht man das nur?_( How is that done?)
19549So with the frequent question,_ Wie macht man das nur?_( How is that done?)
19549Still, it seems remarkable that I did not once hear the child say"When?"
19549The answer that has been learned to the question,"How old are you?"
19549The auxiliaries are often omitted or employed in strange misformations, e. g.,"Where have you been?"
19549The boy must have thought,"How would it be if I felt of it?"
19549The child is asked,"Where is the moon?
19549The child picks it up quickly, holds it behind him, and to my question,"Where is the key?"
19549The first question,_ isn das?_ from"Was ist denn das?"
19549The first question,_ isn das?_ from"Was ist denn das?"
19549The frequent_ ist das_ signifies merely"das ist,"or it is the echo of the oft- heard question,"Was ist das?"
19549The little verses I sing at the same time amuse him, e. g.,"Zeislein, Zeislein, wo ist dein Häuslein?"
19549The mother asked some one,"Do you hear?"
19549The old tricks,"How tall is the child?"
19549The questions,"Where is papa?
19549The sentence ran,_ Warum nach Hause gehen?
19549The sole interrogative word continues still to be"Where?"
19549The verb"sein"( be) was very much distorted:_ Warum warst du nicht fleissig gebist?_( gebist for gewesen)( why have you not been industrious?).
19549The verb"sein"( be) was very much distorted:_ Warum warst du nicht fleissig gebist?_( gebist for gewesen)( why have you not been industrious?).
19549The word"Nein"( no) he uses as a sign of refusal; e. g.,"Will you have some roast meat?"
19549The word"Where?"
19549Then the witch said:"Nucker, Nucker Neisle, who is crawling in my little house?"
19549Thus, this very child( in the nineteenth month), when her favorite song,"Who will go for a Soldier?"
19549To all questions of an earlier period,"Where is the forehead, nose, mouth, chin, beard, hair, cheek, eye, ear, shoulder?"
19549To be sure, the question"Where have you been?"
19549To my question, after his grandfather had gone away,"Where is Grandpapa now?"
19549To the question of a stranger,"What is your name?"
19549To the question"Where have you been?"
19549To the question,"Did it taste good?"
19549To the question,"How do we eat?"
19549To the question,"Was thun wir morgen?"
19549To the question,"Where is Emmy?"
19549To the question,"Where is the eye?"
19549To the questions,"Where is your ear, your tooth, nose, hand, your fingers, mamma''s ear, papa''s nose?"
19549To- day, when I asked him"Did you see papa ride?"
19549Upon the question,"How tall?"
19549When a wheel creaked on the carriage, the child asked,_ Was macht nur so_( What makes that)?
19549When asked,"Where is Tick- tack?"
19549When at tea she took notice of the tray, observed the shining of the japan- work, and asked''what the color was round the edge?''
19549When one eye had been pointed out, I asked,"Where is the other eye?"
19549When some one asked,"Where is the brush?"
19549When the child''s father asked later,"Well, Adolph, what did you see in the park?"
19549When, therefore, the same child in his fifth year, to the improper question,"Whom do you like better, papa or mamma?"
19549Wo?
19549_ 17th Month._--He speaks his own name correctly, and when asked"Where is Adolph?"
19549_ Is there any thinking without words?_ The question takes this shape.
19549_ Ja wohl._ Being asked"Whose feet are these?"
19549_ Warum macht der Frödrich die[ Blumen] Töpfe rein?_( Why does Frederick clean the flower- pots?)

19549a much more frequent one, is likewise answered correctly, although the word"What?"

19549along with holding up his arms, in order to make him execute this movement every time that he heard the words,"Wie gross?"
19549and at my image when asked,"Where is papa?"
19549and that"the child bit his own arm as he was accustomed to bite objects with which he was not acquainted"?
19549and the child replied,"_ Mamma"_"And who is that, you?"

19549ear?
19549eidi_ wer[ krabbelt] mir am Haüsle?"
19549he answered,_ O ja ganz lieberich gern_; and when I asked,"Who, pray, speaks so?"
19549he is accustomed to shut both eyes quickly at the same time and to open them again, and then to point to my eye; to the question,"Axel''s eye?"
19549he responds by pointing to his own; to the question,"The other eye?"

19549with_ sund_( for gesund, well);"What is Omama doing?"
16693A relative of yours, I presume, Sire?
16693Aha, youngster, what are you doing in my sky?
16693Am I not king of the whole land? 16693 Am I not pleasing to you?"
16693And is there any other good deed you have done?
16693Are you not king?
16693As_ yours_? 16693 Beg pardon?"
16693Brother Banyan,said the Brahmin, eagerly,"does it seem to you right or just that this Tiger should eat me, when I set him free from his cage?"
16693But has he not beauty exactly like your own, Sire?
16693But have you never been anything different?
16693But there, what_ can_ you expect from a low, grovelling beetle? 16693 But what of your good deeds,"the hermit asked,--"what have you done for God?"
16693But would it not be a disgrace for me to harm an innocent creature?
16693But,said David,"who is this Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?"
16693Ca n''t you see that the door shut me in?
16693Cage?
16693Can we have made a mistake?
16693Dear, dear,said the courtiers,"that is very pleasant; does that little grey bird really make all that noise?
16693Did you kill the Otter''s babies?
16693Did you think you could plant them in the morning?
16693Do you suppose we can have planted_ all_ radishes?
16693Do you suppose,Margery said to herself,"that lettuce and radish look alike while they are growing?
16693Do you think,said the Brahmin,"it is right for this Tiger to eat me, when I set him free from his cage?"
16693Friend Brahmin, where were you?
16693Have we not heard the sound of hammering every day? 16693 Have ye the pot a- bilin''?"
16693How can we take you with us?
16693How did it happen?
16693How do you like shank''s pony?
16693I believe I shall learn a good deal from living in the country; do n''t you think so?
16693I said,said the Brahmin, raising his voice,"do you think it is fair that the Tiger should eat me, when I set him free from his cage?"
16693I think it''s time to go home, now,he said;"do n''t you?"
16693May I help?
16693May you not do as you will? 16693 Oh, does it, indeed?"
16693Oh, please, dear, strong Mr Whale,he said,"will you have the great kindness to do me a favour?
16693Oh, please, mighty and kindly Elephant,he said, making a very low bow,"will you do me a favour?"
16693Papa,she said, all out of breath,"do you think we could have made a mistake about my garden?
16693Really? 16693 So?"
16693Surely, flowers,said her mother,"and shall we not have a little salad garden in the middle?"
16693The blackberry- bush, mamma; what does it say? 16693 Then every plant looks like this at first?"

16693Why do n''t the people come to see me?
16693Why do you cry?
16693Why have I never heard him sing?
16693Why were you trailing your three- edged pike?
16693Why?
16693Why?
16693Will you give me the Emperor''s gold crown for a song?
16693Will you give me the Emperor''s sceptre for another song?
16693Will you stay with me? 16693 Would you make a place for me where I can hide?"
16693Yes,said his mother;"have you got the little Red Hen?"
16693Yes; but I do n''t see any lock,said the little Jackal,"does it lock on the outside?"
16693You''set him free,''you say?
16693You?
16693_ Who is there?_she said.
16693Am I not a Philistine, and ye servants of Saul?
16693And can you think how happy the baby''s mother was?
16693And he said to David,"Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with a cudgel?"
16693And the very first thing she said, when her father told her about it, was,"Oh, may I have a garden?
16693And then he added,"The children use abominable language when they play the stories; can that directly aid them to speak good English?"
16693And what do you think he did?
16693And when they were alone together the king looked into Robert''s eyes, as he had done before, and said, softly,"Who art thou?"
16693As soon as his mother opened the door he said,"Is the kettle boiling?"
16693But all the animals were asleep, and nobody at all looked at Little Jack Rollaround except an old White Owl; and all she said was,"Who are you?"
16693Could it be weeds?
16693Did you hear What happened to Piccola, children dear?
16693Do n''t you know that''s no way to carry butter?
16693Do you think it right or fair that this Tiger should eat me, when I set him free from a terrible cage?"
16693Do you think we could have put radishes in all the rows?"
16693Do you think----""Oh,"said the little Jackal,"you want my opinion?
16693Epaminondas, what you got in your hat?"
16693Epaminondas, what you got on the end of that string?"
16693Epaminondas, what you got there?"
16693Genuine reverence for the humanity of the"other fellow"marks a definite degree of courtesy in the intercourse of adults, does it not?
16693Had his forty years of prayer been a terrible mistake, and was his soul indeed like a clown, fooling in the market- place?
16693He came to the door with his keys and called out,"Who is there?"
16693He said,"Paper- cutting is good, but what has it to do with English?"
16693He said,"Why are ye come out to set your battle in array?
16693His Mammy said,--"What you got there, Epaminondas?"
16693How can I keep a sunny soul To shine along life''s way?
16693How can I learn to rule myself, To be the child I should, Honest and brave, nor ever tire Of trying to be good?
16693How can I tune my little heart To sweetly sing all day?
16693How could she save him from death?
16693How does it shut?"
16693I have given you gifts of gold and jewels, and kept you always by my side; will you not help me now?"
16693I wonder if I shall see any little bubbles to- day?"
16693I wonder if anything is wrong with my little House?"
16693I wonder if there are any fat little crabs in the water to- day?"
16693If you will have a little patience,--_how_ were you in the cage?
16693Is it too quixotic to urge teachers who tell stories to little children to bear these thoughts, and better ones of their own, in mind?
16693It keeps nodding, nodding to me behind the fence; what does it say, mamma?"

28708but I''m afraid I should eat you up, and then what would mamma say to us both?"
28708exclaims the child;"was she a good woman?"
28708or why should this species of honesty be expected from an animal of prey?
28708the first answer would probably be,"Is it yesterday you mean?"
28708there is a looking- glass; whose pretty face is that?
28709''Are we not here now?'' 28709 Are we not here now, and gone in a moment?"

28709Of what?
28709So as to touch the cylinder, do you mean?
28709Spermaceti,you mean?
28709The ocean can not roll_ above_, can it mother?

28709Would a feather, if it were moving with the greatest conceivable swiftness or velocity, throw down a castle?
28709[ 21]Would a mountain torn up by the roots, as fabled in Milton, if it moved with the least conceivable velocity, throw down a castle?"
28709[ 53]How came you,"said his father,"to think of a dead body''s turning into tallow?"
28709''Mend_ you_, sir?''
28709----._"Do you think that book is alive?"
28709----._"Do you think that the chaise is alive?"
28709----._"Do you think that the fire is alive?"

28709Are universities the most splendid repositories of learning?
28709Are you to be a bishop, or a judge?
28709But since they agree in all the particulars wherein we can already compare them, is it not probable they agree likewise in this?
28709But what ideas does the youth annex to the words pleasure and virtue?
28709Can it be necessary to spend so many years, so many of the best years of life, in toil and misery?
28709Can not the mother and governess both amuse themselves at different times?
28709Can not this be managed better?

28709Does she not complain of the labour of practising four or five hours a day to keep up her musical character?
28709Had you rather be a general, or an admiral, my little dear?"
28709Have I any provincial accent?
28709Her accomplishments would be of little use to her, if she were to be shut up from the world: who is to be the judge of them in a nunnery?"

28709How?"
28709If a governess attends the card- table, and the assembly- room; if she is to visit, and be visited, what is to become of her pupils in her absence?
28709If he had patience, how could he have time for such an undertaking?

28709Is it then so great a misfortune to be deaf to one language more?"
28709Is it wonderful that the term prudence should be unknown in the negro vocabulary?

28709May I look at it again?"
28709May not their splendid halls echo with other sounds than the exploded metaphysics of the schools?
28709Might not a cheap, portable, and convenient globe, be made of oiled silk, to be inflated by a common pair of bellows?

28709Or what could it be?"
28709S---- immediately asked,"What_ is_ wit?"
28709S----immediately said,"is laughing an interjection, then?"
28709Sometimes he was pale with anger; sometimes he was red with rage; and in the mean time, he, poor boy, was trembling,( for what?)

28709This is the formula; but is it ever explained-- or can it be?
28709Those who, in reading these quotations, have perhaps exclaimed,"Why must we go through this farrago of nonsense?"
28709Two what?
28709Unless the words"_ Roman Citizens!_"had suggested more than meets the ear, how could they have produced this wonderful effect?
28709Water in what bubbles?"
28709We asked little W---- why that man( pointing to the figure of Apollo in his invisible car) looked so much higher up in the air than the other people?
28709We pointed to the imperfect wheel, and asked if he knew what that was?

28709What account can we give of the connection between cause and effect?
28709What are maps or medals, statues or pictures, but technical helps to memory?

28709_ Father._"Would you rather be blinded, or have your legs tied?"
28709_ M----._"Could not shoes be made in the same manner in a mould?"
28709_ M----._"Then how comes it that the wind does not blow always the same way?"

36774Am I wronging the good man by disclosing his secret, and saying that he was not the cynical curmudgeon for which he tried to pass?
36774And are the young less complex than centipedes?
36774And are we quite content to say that the greatest of subjects is unteachable?
36774And can we fit him?
36774And how shall we content ourselves with its necessary limitations?
36774And if this has been the case with us prosaic males of the past, what must be the experience of your own hopeful sex?
36774And if you ask,"What is a competent allowance?"

36774And must we then consider human character uninteresting?
36774And what is harder?
36774And what shall I do with the rest of my life?"
36774And why should our daughters remain aloof from the most absorbing work of modern city life, work quite as fascinating to young women as to young men?
36774Are many students large spenders?
36774Are there any such essentials, and how many?
36774Are there any such tendencies here?
36774Are there no positive measures to be taken?
36774Are these choices unwise?
36774Are they also practicable?
36774Are they not the studies which should largely occupy a young man''s thoughts toward the close of his college life?
36774Are they perfect of lineament, perfect of stature?
36774Are they then searchers for beauty and distinction?
36774Are we, then, prepared to dismiss prejudice from our minds and to recognize what steadiness of advance means?
36774Are you a master somewhere?
36774Are you aware how exceptional is your condition?
36774Are you to find life dull?

36774But of what consequence was it if the breakfast was slight or the coat worn?
36774But supposing such a temper, what special qualifications will the work require?
36774But the interesting question still remains,"Are students by such means learning habits of spontaneous regularity?"

36774Can you write a poem or run a typewriter?
36774Did they expect scholarship where there were politicians and business men?
36774Do they comprehend their added wealth and turn it to the high uses for which it was designed?
36774Do you come face to face with things?
36774Do you see the thing exactly as it is?
36774Do you strip away from it your own likings and dislikings, your own previous notions of what it ought to be?
36774Does not the new method, while rendering education more agreeable, tend to lower its standard?
36774Eliminate desire, put in its place allegiance to the rules of a game, and what, in any of these cases, would be the chance of persistent endeavor?

36774Formerly the majority of physicians had but one question for the mother of the nervous and delicate girl,"Does she go to school?"
36774Has he accepted the moral code inherited from honored parents?
36774Has he discovered that the moral standards obtaining in different sections of society, in different parts of the world, are irreconcilable?
36774Has he found one class of duties in conflict with another?
36774Has he grown up unquestioning?
36774Have we not all received a large measure of moral culture at school?
36774Have you acquired this art, or do you hastily glance at insignificant objects?
36774Have you been training your eye to see a world in a grain of sand?
36774How can I tell all I long to tell and still be sure the telling will be for him as lucid and delightful as for me?
36774How can I transport him out of his properly alien surroundings into the vivid impressions which now are mine?
36774How can one be interested in easy things?
36774How could one so superior as I rest in such surroundings?
36774How far may it influence character?
36774How largely does it infect the College?
36774How many groups shall there be?
36774How, it will be asked, are choices so judicious secured?
36774I asked,"Was n''t that a great mistake; have n''t you now found out your blunder?"
36774I have thus been forced to ask myself the double question, through what lacks do I fail, and in what direction lie the roots of my small successes?
36774I laughed at her,"Have you sprained your ankle?"
36774I might confidently go through this room asking each of you what is your subject?
36774I perceive their relations; I can handle them; I can use them in practice; can you?"
36774If I offer to shake hands with a man with precisely that degree of warmth which I have decided it is well to express, will he willingly take my hand?
36774If he can answer this question, he has gone very far towards answering the question,''What book or books can I read with satisfaction and profit?''"
36774If the lectures are kept true to their aim of furnishing solid instruction, can they in the long run be paid for?
36774In knowledge, or in the schools?
36774In short, is he puzzled and desirous of working his way through his puzzles, of facing them and tracking them to their beginnings?
36774Is all indeed gone?
36774Is it because manners are unimportant?
36774Is it certain that the students of other colleges, if left with little or no restraint, would show a better record?
36774Is it desirable that they should?
36774Is it not then true that every specialist has disciplined himself to be an ignoramus?
36774Is it to be blighted?
36774Is not this the plan that will finally be judged safest?
36774Is that to be your attitude?
36774Is there a certain way in which we may engage in the specialist''s research and still save ourselves from some of the evils I have here depicted?
36774Is there no room in our schools for any teaching of morality, or must the most important of subjects be altogether banished from their doors?
36774Is this because ordinary people have only three or four thousand things to say?
36774Is this to be your attitude?
36774Is what I say precisely what I mean?
36774Is what I say so shaped that it can readily be assimilated by him who hears?
36774It may be just to condemn the dull, the intolerant, the self- absorbed teacher; but why not condemn also the system which perpetuates him?
36774It must, it seems, be a line including election; but election limited how?
36774Let him attempt it, and his pupils will surely say to one another,"What is the matter to- day with teacher?"
36774Meeting him a few years after he had entered his profession, I asked,"How did it happen that you changed your mind so markedly?
36774Multitudes of interesting things are calling; shall you turn away from them and follow a single line?
36774Must a man of moderate means on coming here be put to shame?
36774Neither will the finer opportunities of college life appeal to one who, until she is eighteen( is there such a girl in this country?
36774On what facts do they build such confidence?
36774Once direct the attention of our pupils to this great topic, and may we not ultimately bring about that moral enlargement for which the time waits?
36774Once, after puzzling long over the charm of Homer, I applied to a learned friend and said to him,"Can you tell me why Homer is so interesting?
36774One might ask what is the use of this?
36774Or are you to get your intellectual eyes open, see beauty in the making, and come to rejoice in it there rather than after it is made?
36774Or can, indeed, the first be obtained without the aid of the second?
36774Perfection, beauty?
36774Shall their little lives be suddenly turned over to a fumbling guide?
36774Should I, if I had had only their narrow opportunities, be so intelligent, so kind, so self- sacrificing as they?
36774Sophocles?"
36774Teachers themselves have become interested, and wherever they are gathered the question,"What shall this teaching be?"
36774That any such thing is likely to occur, I do not believe; but if it were, would it aid the higher education and promote its wide dispersion?
36774The perplexing question is, What courses to give up?
36774The training of them all?
36774There is another Jones in the class, you know, J. S. Jones"( a lump of flesh),"and may it not be that our marks have been confused?"
36774These hungry pupils are drawing all their nourishment from us, and have we got it to give?
36774They are perfect-- how else?
36774They ran somewhat as follows: The centipede was happy, quite, Until the toad for fun Said,"Pray which leg comes after which?"
36774Those best points, what are they?
36774To my mind one of the gravest perplexities of the new education is the query, What are the small colleges to do?
36774To subjects of what scope should it be applied?
36774Were you ever in Wiltshire in England, and did you visit the splendid seat of the Earls of Pembroke, Wilton House?
36774What are her habits?"
36774What are her tastes?
36774What are the reasons that whenever elective and prescribed studies are mixed, an extrusive force regularly appears in the elective?

22251More than once?
22251More than twice?
22251Mr. B. is this right?
22251Now boys,continued the master,"will you assist me in making arrangements to prevent the recurrence of all temptations of this kind hereafter?
22251Now what do you think I ought to do with such a boy?
22251Now, does the sun, in going round the earth, pass over the Rocky Mountains, or over us, first?
22251Quarter round?
22251Right,said the master,"but would not the boys know this, and so all agree to let the little chestnuts stay, and not eat them while they were small?"
22251Roger,said the master,( for this boy''s name was Roger)"can you get me a chestnut burr?"
22251Should you not think it would take a minute apiece?
22251Should you think_ that_ is more or less than an inch?
22251Sir,we might say to him,"what is the matter?"
22251Suppose a thief were to go into a man''s store in the day time, and take away something secretly, would it be stealing or robbery?
22251Suppose he should meet him in the road and take it away by force?

22251Suppose the river Mississippi is fifteen degrees from us, how long is it twelve o''clock here, before it is twelve o''clock there?

22251Then why should any boy or girl wish to give me trouble or pain?
22251Then will it be eleven, or one?
22251Then will it be one hour before, or one hour after noon?
22251Then,asked they,"did we do wrong?"
22251There are two classes then?
22251Was it real robbery?
22251Was that of the nature of stealing or robbery?
22251Was there any thing on it?
22251Well, now, what do you think I ought to do next?
22251Well, what harm would there be in that; would it not be as well to have the chestnuts early in the summer, as to have them in the fall?
22251Well, what would that motive be?
22251Were it not for the boys? 22251 Were you not in the class at the time?"

22251Why is it that so many of our countrymen are, or seem to be prejudiced against the unfortunate children of Africa? 22251 Why not?
22251Why sir?
22251Why, do n''t you remember that you got me a new baize?
22251Why, sir?
22251Why? 22251 Will the sun go towards, or from, the Rocky Mountains, after leaving us?"
22251Would that be about right?
22251Yes; and the fourth?
22251''Miss A.,''said a teacher,''how many kinds of magnitude are there?''
22251*****"Is it not right to allow prejudice, to have influence over our minds as far as this?
22251A child comes to you, for example, and says,"Will you tell me, sir, where the next lesson is?"
22251A fourth began,''Are you acquainted with that new scholar?''
22251After he had finished his narrative, he said,"Now should you like to know who this boy was?"
22251After speaking of several individuals, who were among their former acquaintances, one asked,''Do you remember Miss W.?''
22251Am I right in my supposition?"
22251And why?
22251Another teacher looks calmly at the scene, and says to himself,"What shall I do to remove effectually these evils?
22251Are you both willing to leave it just where it is, till to- morrow, and try to forget all about it till then?
22251Are you not satisfied that it is?"
22251Are you willing to adopt this plan?"
22251Are you willing to do it?"
22251But at any rate, it showed my good wishes for him,--it showed that I was his friend, and what return do you think he made me for it?
22251But do you suppose that it will be enough for you merely to resolve here, that you will reform?"
22251But how shall he secure greater pains?
22251But that is not the greatest difficulty; can any of you think of any other?"
22251But to proceed:"When the sun is exactly opposite to us, in the south, at the highest point to which he rises, what o''clock is it?"
22251But what are you making this formidable club for?"
22251By stern commands and threats?
22251Can any of you think what they are?
22251Can any one tell what it is?"
22251Can not we have another place?"
22251Can you do it as well as not?''
22251Can you tell me of any other fruits which are preserved in this way?"
22251Cases of deliberate, intentional wrong will occur, and the question will rise, what is the duty of the teacher in such an emergency?
22251Did I ask for pencils?"
22251Did it?"
22251Do any of you think of any plan?"
22251Do not you think so yourselves?"

22251I never thought of any thing but giving him trouble and pain.--I wonder who told him I could make whistles?"
22251If so, how extensively?"
22251If so, the step is too long, and may be subdivided thus:"When it is noon here, is the sun going towards the Mississippi, or has he passed it?"

22251Now am I not compelled to conclude that this latter is the case?"
22251Now should you rather have me talk with you or not?"
22251Now suppose a stranger should come in, and seeing them all busy, should say to me,"''What are all these boys doing?''
22251Now the point which I wish to bring before you is this; do you know in what order, I mean on what principles, the books are arranged?"
22251Now what can the gardener do?
22251Now what is the duty of the teacher in such a case?
22251Now, how long does it take the sun to pass round the earth?"
22251Shall the government of school be a_ monarchy_ or a_ republic_?
22251Shall the practice of prompting in the classes be any longer continued?
22251Should you like to adopt the plan?"
22251Should you not suppose it would?"
22251Suppose then the Rocky Mountains were half round the globe, how long would it take the sun to go to them?"
22251The question is asked a thousand times,"How shall I ever learn to keep my resolutions?"
22251The reader will perhaps ask, shall we make no efforts at improvement?
22251The teacher may, perhaps, say to those in their seats,"Do you not know any thing of this subject?
22251The teacher then makes a memorandum of this, and then inquires;"And what lesson came after this?"
22251Unit figure?"
22251Vernon School?
22251Was a building burnt by lightning in the neighborhood?
22251Was n''t it a bear?
22251What are you making, Joseph?"
22251What could the teacher mean?
22251What is it her duty to do?"
22251What shall this contain?"
22251What should you say to such a company as that?"
22251What useful practice has not its dangers?
22251What were you doing?"
22251What would, in ordinary cases, be the effect?
22251Which do you think you should rather do?"
22251Which now do you think is the worst?"
22251Which of these teachers understood human nature best?
22251Which way are they from us?"
22251Who could it be?
22251Who ever heard of such a thing?
22251Whose sled was it that Richard took away?"
22251Why did n''t you know bears were stronger than men?
22251Why, is there any peculiar depravity in them which you could not have foreseen?"
22251Will you all think, and answer together?
22251Will you see whether it is longer than any that come after it?"
22251Will you try the moral one?
22251Will you try the physical one?
22251Would it be just?"
22251Would it be the same with the other?"
22251You do not want her to be punished; do you?"
22251You will ask,"Can not we obtain permission of you or of the teachers to leave our seats or to whisper, if it is necessary?"
22251You will then say, are we never on any occasion whatever to leave our seats in study hours?
22251_ Charles._ Have we?
22251_ Emily._ But if we ca n''t find our way back, what shall we do?
22251_ Emily._ O Charles, do you believe we shall ever find the way out of this dreadful long wood?
22251_ Emily._ Where do you think they are?
22251_ Miss X._ How do you like the looks of Miss A., who entered school to- day?
22251_ Miss X._ She does not strike me very pleasantly; did you ever see such a face?
22251_ Miss Y._ I wonder if she has a taste for Arithmetic?
22251_ Never_, do I say?
22251_ T._"Hundreds?"
22251_ Teacher._"Can any one of the boys inform me what was the first lesson that the former master used to hear in the morning?"
22251_ Teacher._"Did he hear_ any_ recitation immediately after school began?"
22251_ Teacher._"How long was it before he began to hear lessons?"
22251_ Teacher._"Tens?"
22251_ Teacher._''Will you try to speak a little louder, Miss A.?''
22251did n''t you hear that dreadful noise just now?
22251five, six,& c.''Should you call that reciting well?"
22251she continued,"what shall I do?
12291''But why not? 12291 ''Do you see that boy in the back seat?
12291''I see,''the stranger might say by this time,''that there is a great difference among these boys; have you told me about them all?'' 12291 ''What are they writing?''
12291''Why?'' 12291 And what is one third of forty- five?"
12291And what were you doing with it?
12291Are there any other scholars in the school who think it would be well for them to join this class?
12291Are you willing to pledge yourselves to adopt it?
12291Boys,said he,"do you know what this is?"
12291But I can not tell you his name; for what return do you think he made to me? 12291 But what is this rough, prickly covering for?"
12291But why,asked one of the boys,"do not apples grow so?"
12291Can any body answer that question?
12291Can any one propose a plan which will remedy the difficulty?
12291Can it be noon here and at a place ten miles west of us at the same time?
12291Can it be noon, then,continues the teacher,"here and at a place fifteen degrees west of us at the same time?"
12291Can you name any of them?
12291Can you say the Multiplication Table?
12291Did you all recite together?
12291Did you hear that noise?
12291Do n''t you know any thing about it?
12291Do you know what books are between the Acts and the book of Revelation?
12291Do you know what it is for?
12291Do you know what it is?
12291Do you mean that you will be honest, or that you would like to have a committee appointed?
12291Do you mean you would like to have the inquiry made?
12291Do you prefer sitting together, or are you willing to have me separate you?
12291Do you see now, boys, what I mean to teach you by this long supposition?
12291Do you stand easily in that position?
12291Do you suppose that you will perfectly keep this rule from this time?
12291Do you think it would be a good plan,I inquired,"to have it a common amusement in the recess for the girls to hunt each other among the desks?"
12291Do you think of any other common motive of action besides love of money and friendship?
12291Do you think that these written excuses are, after all, a fair test of the real reasons for tardiness? 12291 Does any body here know?"
12291Does he get opposite to the Rocky Mountains before or after he is opposite to us?
12291Does he go toward the west or toward the east from us?
12291Does this fault,he would say to himself,"prevail among my pupils?
12291Eight times six? 12291 George, what did you have in your hand?"
12291Have I ever treated any boy or girl in this school unjustly or unkindly?
12291Have these boys done right or wrong?
12291How can I tell?
12291How did you like the discourse?
12291How large a part of that, then, will he pass in one hour?
12291How long did you say it takes the sun to go round the globe and come to us again?
12291How long does it take the meat to grow?
12291How long to go half round?
12291How long will it take him to go to the Rocky Mountains?
12291How many degrees will the sun pass over in three hours?
12291How many desks do you think will be found to be disorderly when we come to make the examination?
12291How many motives have I got now? 12291 How many of you think you need better accommodations?"
12291How many of you think, and are willing to avow your opinion, that I have_ not_ been fully informed of the case?
12291How many plead guilty to it?
12291How many,I then asked,"have ever been put to the trouble to go to the door when the bell has thus been rung?
12291How may we overcome prejudice? 12291 How much is four times five?
12291How much is seven times nine? 12291 How much of the chestnut is good to eat, William?"
12291In going quarter round?
12291Is he ever exactly south of us?
12291Is it not right to allow prejudice to have influence over our minds as far as this? 12291 Is it twelve o''clock here, then, before or after it is twelve o''clock there?"
12291Is not this the fact?
12291Lucy,said the master to a bright- eyed little girl near him,"what is this?"
12291May I speak to one of the class to ask about it?
12291More than once?
12291More than twice?
12291Mr. Abbott, will you have the goodness to explain to us what is meant by the Veto Message?
12291Mr. B., is this right?
12291Nine times seven? 12291 Now does the sun, in going round the earth, pass over the Rocky Mountains, or over us, first?"
12291Now what do you think I ought to do with such a boy?
12291Now, boys,continued the master,"will you assist me in making arrangements to prevent the recurrence of all temptations of this kind hereafter?
12291Quarter round?
12291Right,said the master;"but would not the boys know this, and so all agree to let the little chestnuts stay, and not eat them while they were small?"
12291Roger,said the master( for this boy''s name was Roger),"can you get me a chestnut burr?"
12291Should you not think it would take a minute apiece?
12291Should you think_ that_ is more or less than an inch?
12291Sir,we might say to him,"what is the matter?"
12291Suppose a thief were to go into a man''s store in the daytime, and take away something secretly, would it be stealing or robbery?
12291Suppose he should meet him in the road, and take it away by force?
12291Suppose it was his own hat, would he have been right? 12291 Suppose the River Mississippi is fifteen degrees from us, how long is it twelve o''clock here before it is twelve o''clock there?"
12291Suppose they were quarter round?
12291Suppose, now, I were to make one more experiment, and let you try to be good boys in your present seat, would you really try?
12291Suppose, then, it takes the sun one hour to go from us to the River Mississippi, how many degrees west of us would the river be?
12291The fifth?
12291The next?
12291The next?
12291The next?
12291The next?
12291The second?
12291The third?
12291Then has noon gone by at that river, or has it not yet come?
12291Then why should any boy or girl wish to give me trouble or pain?
12291Then will it be eleven or one?
12291Then will it be one hour before or one hour after noon?
12291Then,asked they,"did we do wrong?"
12291There are two classes, then?
12291This is not expressed very well; the phrases''_ to Jericho?_''and''_ dreadful ugly_''are vulgar, and not in good taste. 12291 Was it real robbery?"
12291Was that of the nature of stealing or robbery? 12291 Was there any thing on it?"
12291Well, Mr. B.,she continued,"what shall I do?
12291Well, now, what do you think I ought to do next?
12291Well, what harm would there be in that? 12291 Well, what would that motive be?"
12291Were it not for their misconduct? 12291 Were you not in the class at the time?"
12291What comes next?
12291What comes next?
12291What did he do at this time?
12291What do you suppose a prophet is?
12291What harm does it do?
12291What is the first book of the New Testament?
12291What is this?
12291What shall I do?
12291What shall I do?
12291What was the other?
12291What?
12291When he is opposite to the Rocky Mountains, what o''clock is it there?
12291When it is twelve o''clock here, then, what time will it be there?
12291When the sun is exactly opposite to us, can he be opposite to the Rocky Mountains?
12291When will vacation commence?
12291Which way,asks the teacher,"are the Rocky Mountains from us?"
12291Why is it that so many of our countrymen_ are_, or seem to be, prejudiced against the unfortunate children of Africa? 12291 Why not?
12291Why not? 12291 Why, do n''t you remember that you got me a new baize?"
12291Why, sir?
12291Why, sir?
12291Will the sun go toward or from the Rocky Mountains after leaving us?
12291Will you turn to 1 Samuel, xvi., 7, and then rise and read it? 12291 Would_ that_ be about right?"
12291Yes; and the fourth?
12291_ Miss Y._ I wonder if she has a taste for Arithmetic? 12291 ''Do you see that boy?'' 12291 ''Miss A.,''said a teacher,''how many kinds of magnitude are there?'' 12291 ''What are they thinking of?'' 12291 ''What is the next boy to him thinking of?'' 12291 A child comes to you, for example, and says,Will you tell me, sir, where the next lesson is?"
12291A fourth began,''Are you acquainted with that new scholar?''
12291After he had finished his narrative, he said,"Now should you like to know who this boy was?"
12291After speaking of several individuals who were among their former acquaintances, one asked,''Do you remember Miss W.?
12291Also, do you think it is right to tell untruths to very little children, as many persons do, or to people who are sick?
12291Also, whether it would be right to tell a falsehood to an insane man in order to manage him?"
12291Am I right in my supposition?"
12291And why?
12291Another teacher looks calmly at the scene, and says to himself,"What shall I do to remove effectually these evils?
12291Are you both willing to leave it just where it is till to- morrow, and try to forget all about it till then?
12291Are you not satisfied that it is?"
12291Are you willing to adopt this plan?"
12291Are you willing to do it?"
12291But do you suppose that it will be enough for you merely to resolve here that you will reform?"
12291But how shall he secure greater pains?
12291But if we ca n''t find our way back, what shall we do?
12291But that is not the greatest difficulty; can any of you think of any other?"
12291But to proceed:"When the sun is exactly opposite to us, in the south, at the highest point to which he rises, what o''clock is it?"
12291But what are you making this formidable club for?"
12291But, at any rate, it showed my good wishes for him; it showed that I was his friend; and what return do you think he made me for it?
12291By stern commands and threats?
12291Can any of you think what they are?
12291Can any one of the boys inform me what was the first lesson that the former master used to hear in the morning?
12291Can any one tell me what it is?"
12291Can not we have another place?"
12291Can you do it for me?''
12291Can you tell me of any other fruits which are preserved in this way?"
12291Cases of deliberate, intentional wrong will occur, and the question will rise, What is the duty of the teacher in such an emergency?
12291Charles, did n''t you hear that dreadful noise just now?
12291Did I ask for pencils?"
12291Did he hear_ any_ recitation immediately after school began?
12291Did it?"
12291Did you ever see such a face?
12291Do any of you think of any plan?"
12291Do you know what is the last book of the New Testament?"
12291Do you know who wrote the letters?"
12291Do you like this plan?"
12291Do you not think it would be so?"
12291Do you not think so yourselves?"
12291Do you not think you will find this the best course?"
12291Do you now understand the principle of the arrangement of the epistles?"
12291Do you remember my speaking on this subject in school the other day?"
12291Do you suppose it would be safe to leave the decision of important questions to the scholars in this school?"
12291Do you think I shall succeed?"
12291Do you think it does depend upon that?"
12291Do you think it would be possible for us to have as good an exercise every day?"
12291Do you think that the girls who rang the bell might have known this by proper reflection?"
12291Do you think they would be safe?"
12291Do you think this was wrong or not?"
12291Do you think you can remember?"
12291Do you understand how I mean?"
12291Do you understand so far?"
12291Do you, or not, experience these inconveniences from our present plans?"
12291Do you?"
12291Does He notice a child''s ringing a door- bell in play?
12291Eight_ and_ six?
12291For example, suppose I should say to a fifth boy,''Will you copy this piece of poetry?
12291Four_ and_ five?
12291Had he discovered the trick?
12291Has a boy a right to do what he pleases with his own hat?"
12291Has any one any plan to propose?"
12291Have I ever had to speak to you before for playing together in school?"
12291Have I_ done_ well?
12291Have we?
12291Have you any objection to the indictment?"
12291Have you any particular preference for that seat?"
12291Have you neither seen nor heard of alabaster, and had no means of ascertaining any thing in regard to it?
12291Have you not observed it?"
12291Her mother was always moved by her tears, and would not her aunt relent?
12291How do they all read?
12291How do they all write?
12291How do they calculate?
12291How long was it before he began to hear lessons?
12291How many are in favor of having shorter lessons, and having them read but once?
12291How many are in favor of requesting William Jones to perform this duty?"
12291How many find this the case with their work?"
12291How many had I made?"
12291How many plead guilty to this?"
12291How many prefer longer lessons, and having them read twice?"
12291How many suppose so?"
12291How many will the sun pass in going half round?"
12291How shall I write it?
12291I can not say any thing about_ civil_ in it, can I?"
12291I wonder who told him I could make whistles?"
12291If so, how extensively?
12291If so, the step is too long, and may be subdivided thus:"When it is noon here, is the sun going toward the Mississippi, or has he passed it?"
12291If you now sincerely determine never more to use a profane word, will you not easily avoid it?"
12291In concluding what he said, he addressed the boys as follows:"Now, boys, the question is, do you wish to abandon this habit or not?
12291In one hour, then, how many degrees will the sun pass over?"
12291In other words, What are the punishments which are resorted to in the Mount Vernon School?
12291In parsing nouns, what is the first particular to be named?"
12291Is any body aggrieved or injured?
12291Is it considered so now?"
12291Is it not, boys?"
12291Is that what I ought to do?"
12291Is the erection of a public building going forward in the neighborhood of your school?
12291Is there a question before the community on the subject of the location of a new school- house?
12291Is there any other harm?"
12291Is there discontent in the school?
12291It is useless to resist, thought she; indeed, why should I wish to?
12291It will be dreadfully dark by- and- by, wo n''t it?
12291James, have you a Bible in your desk?"
12291Must every thing in education go on in a uniform and monotonous manner, and, while all else is advancing, shall our cause alone stand still?
12291Nine_ and_ seven?"
12291Now I did not tell you to make the margins_ exactly_ an inch and half an inch, but only as near as you could judge?"
12291Now I wish to know, at the outset, whether you do or do not wish to help me?"
12291Now am I not compelled to conclude that this latter is the case?"
12291Now have you never noticed any objection to it?"
12291Now how long does it take the sun to pass round the earth?"
12291Now suppose a stranger should come in, and, seeing them all busy, should say to me,"''What are all these boys doing?''
12291Now the point which I wish to bring before you is this; do you know in what order, I mean on what principles, the books are arranged?"
12291Now what can the gardener do?
12291Now what is the duty of the teacher in such a case?
12291Now will you look into your desks, and tell me whether they are, on these three principles, well arranged?"
12291Now, should you rather have me talk with you or not?"
12291Oh, Charles, do you believe we shall ever find the way out of this dreadful long wood?
12291On the walk the teacher thus accosted the criminal:"Do you like frank, open dealing, James?"
12291Seven_ and_ nine?
12291Shall the practice of prompting in the classes be any longer continued?
12291Should you like to adopt the plan?"
12291Should you not suppose it would?"
12291Suppose, hereafter, when you are about to take a journey, you reach the pier five minutes after the steamer has gone, what good will excuses do you?
12291Suppose, then, the Rocky Mountains were half round the globe, how long would it take the sun to go to them?"
12291The question is asked a thousand times,"How shall I ever learn to keep my resolutions?"
12291The reader will perhaps ask, Shall we make no efforts at improvement?
12291The teacher makes a memorandum of this, and then inquires,"And what lesson came after this?"
12291The teacher may perhaps say to those in their seats,"Do you not know any thing of this subject?
12291Unit figure?"
12291Was a building burned by lightning in the neighborhood?
12291Was n''t it a bear?
12291What are you making, Joseph?"
12291What could the teacher mean?
12291What is it her duty to do?"
12291What is your objection to her?''
12291What should you say to such a company as that?"
12291What useful practice has not its dangers?
12291What were you doing?"
12291What would, in ordinary cases, be the effect?
12291Where do you think they are?
12291Which do you think you should rather do?"
12291Which of these teachers understood human nature best?
12291Which way are they from us?"
12291Which, now, do you think is the worst?"
12291Who could it be?
12291Who would have conceived of it?
12291Whose sled was it that Richard took away?"
12291Why did not these reasons prevent your doing it?"
12291Why, did n''t you know bears were stronger than men?
12291Why, is there any peculiar depravity in them which you could not have foreseen?"
12291Will you all now look into your desks, and see whether you consider them in good order?
12291Will you all think and answer together?
12291Will you see whether it is longer than any that come after it?
12291Will you try the moral one?
12291Will you try the physical one?
12291Would it be just?"
12291Would it be the same with the other?"
12291Would it not be as well to have the chestnuts early in the summer as to have them in the fall?"
12291You do not want her to be punished, do you?"
12291You will ask,"Can not we obtain permission of you or of the teachers to leave our seats or to whisper if it is necessary?"
12291You will then say,"Are we never, on any occasion whatever, to leave our seats in study hours?"
12291_ Never_, do I say?
12291_ Now is there any rule in this school against selfishness?"
12291_ T._"Hundreds?"
12291_ Teacher._"Tens?"
12291_ Teacher._''Will you try to speak a little louder, Miss A.?"
12291and, if so, what was he going to do?
12291five, six,''& c. Should you call that reciting well?"
12291should always be the question, not, Have I managed to_ appear_ well?
12291you and Joseph are particular friends, then, I suppose?"

20220307 THE MIND AND ITS EDUCATION CHAPTER I THE MIND, OR CONSCIOUSNESS We are to study the mind and its education; but how?
20220A better student?
20220A dull, listless teacher with an interested class?
20220After eating indigestible food before going to bed?
20220After sitting for half a day in an ill- ventilated schoolroom?
20220And where will all this light be at midnight tonight?
20220Are feelings alone a safe guide to action?
20220Are you easily affected by reading emotional books?
20220Are you easily influenced by prejudice or personal preference in making decisions?
20220Are you ever obliged to perform any activities in which you have little or no interest, either directly or indirectly?
20220Are you independent in deciding upon and following out a line of action?
20220Are you naturally responsive to the emotional tone of others; that is, are you sympathetic?
20220Are you over- impulsive?
20220Are you seeking to cultivate expression in new lines?
20220Are you stubborn?
20220Are you subject to the"blues,"or other forms of depressed feeling?
20220Are you troubled with indecision; that is, do you have hard work to decide in trivial matters even after you know all the facts in the case?

20220INTROSPECTION THE ONLY MEANS OF DISCOVERING NATURE OF CONSCIOUSNESS.--What, then, is mind?

6109Could you read this aloud to your family?
6109Did Sarah[ the maid] say that you ironed it well?
6109Have you a good teacher?
6109Then what will you choose to write about?
6109Well,she replied,"but why did n''t you use your own judgment and take one of the other pieces?"
6109What do you mean by that?
6109Why not?
6109Why?
6109A certain very intelligent ten- year- old girl studying arithmetic read the problem,"What is the interest on$ 500 at six per cent for one year?"
6109Above all, why should two minutes of reflection on the subject mark their limit?
6109Additional suggestions will often be obtained by inquiring,"What part of this lesson, if any, would you like to represent by drawings?
6109After a fortnight or so of this, Catherine said,"Why do n''t you relate to me the events of the day, instead of recalling them to yourself?
6109After the making of the tile has been proposed, the teacher might simply ask,"How will you plan this piece of work?"
6109Again, In what ways has his discovery of America proved of benefit to the world?
6109Also, How would you do it?"
6109Also, what different steps should be taken to secure each kind?
6109Also,"Why is the custom not more common?"
6109An eight- year- old girl said to her mother,"May I iron my apron?
6109And a good pillow, too?
6109And is he to determine all this for himself, remembering that thorough study requires the neglect of some things as well as the emphasis of others?
6109And is it, accordingly, the duty of the student merely to_ follow_ their presentation without enlarging upon it greatly?
6109And is the millennium at hand?
6109And is there any explanation of the fact that authors are not able to express themselves more fully and plainly?
6109And must the student do much supplementing, even much_ digging_, or severe thinking of his own, in order to get at their meaning?
6109And should he, therefore, being a learner, adopt a docile, passive attitude, and accept whatever statements are presented?
6109And some of her detailed questions might well be: What object do you see in studying this topic?
6109And then?
6109And then?"
6109And what are specialists for?
6109And while many deserve much attention, are there many others that may be slighted and even ignored?
6109And why?
6109And would the neglect or skipping of many supposedly little things be more likely to result in careless, slipshod work than in thoroughness?
6109And, if so, how?
6109And, if the memory or the courage fails, the teacher gives help by asking,"What will you tell about first?
6109Any pet names applied?
6109Are authors, at the best, capable only of suggesting their thought, leaving much that is incomplete and even hidden from view?
6109Are my pickaxes and shovels in good order, and am I in good trim myself, my sleeves well up to the elbow, and my breath good, and my temper?''
6109Are not children normally uncritical and imitative or passive?
6109Are not those persons preferable as citizens who readily put by their claims and conform?
6109Are there other ways of baking them?
6109Are they still so prone to error that he should be critical toward them?
6109As suggested by the study of other literature_ Does this same hold with regard to other literature?
6109Assuming that they are correct, dare the young student pass such a criticism?
6109At another time I inquired,"How long has it been since America was discovered?"
6109But I suppose that people sometimes make pictures of things that they ca n''t do; do n''t they?"
6109But other aims in review might be, Do we owe as much to Washington during this period as during the war just preceding?
6109But what about much beyond this minimum?
6109But when they were asked,"Is a person under any obligations to judge the worth of the thought?"
6109But who shall they be, and to what extent?
6109But, then, when is the proper age for study reached?
6109By proceeding from principal thoughts to details._ How can one become safe and skillful in this phase of study?
6109Can children be expected to assume such responsibility?
6109Can he not, therefore, abandon the critical attitude and accept outright what is offered?
6109Can one greatly strengthen the memory by special exercises for that purpose?
6109Can they think well enough to memorize largely through association of ideas, like older persons?"
6109Can you not take it?"
6109Could any of them have been more important then than now?
6109Could you do it?"
6109Could you not use that?"
6109Could you take that?"
6109Did the father argue at length with the older son?
6109Do you know any other families that have a time set apart each day for playing together?
6109Does such an arrangement depend on the parents wholly?
6109Does the average student, for example, subordinate his teachers and the ideas he acquires to himself?
6109Does the father seem to enjoy it?
6109Does the same hold for the young student?
6109Even though the above discussions reveal the main factors in the study of adults, what light does it throw upon the work of children?
6109Failing, however, he impatiently asked,"Why did n''t you tell about so and so"?
6109For example: How large should the tile be made?
6109Granted that there are numerous very important factors in study, what should be done about them?
6109Has the young student any proper basis for carrying that responsibility?
6109Have we, then, put off corruption and become perfect?
6109Have you found any of these statements questionable?
6109Have you heard the story about the Bishop of Bingen in his Mouse- Tower on the Rhine River?
6109He should form the habit of often asking himself,"What is my point?"
6109How about the methods of study among teachers themselves?
6109How about the texts used in the elementary school?
6109How can any one find time for the exercise of so much wisdom?
6109How can such confidence be cultivated?
6109How can these plants be raised?
6109How can they be protected against burning?
6109How do people about us often resemble the elder son?
6109How do the fruits raised there compare with those further east in quality and appearance?
6109How do these statements remind you of others that you already know?
6109How does this differ from a spelling list, so far as equality of values is concerned?
6109How does this one compare in beauty with"Rock- a- bye- baby"?
6109How far, then, should the supplementing be carried?
6109How get them out without burning one''s self?
6109How is farming differently conducted there?
6109How is the United States Government reclaiming the arid lands, and in what sections?
6109How is the situation changed?
6109How make sure of the dimensions?
6109How much time is necessary for the baking?
6109How must the clay be worked into the desired shape?
6109How tell when they are done?
6109How was the establishment of a firm Union made especially difficult by the want of certain modern inventions?
6109How would the older son have had the father act?
6109How would we plan to dramatize this poem?
6109How, then, can habits become best established?
6109How, then, has she escaped a close acquaintance with the principal factors in study?
6109How, then, is he to know what are the important details and what are the unimportant?
6109How, then, should the customary recitation be modified?
6109How, then, was I in a position to do anything more than to follow your exact directions?"
6109How?
6109How?
6109I asked the class,"What is the color of the Indians?"
6109I once asked a fifth- year class in history,"Who discovered America?"
6109If so, how?
6109If so, what is their nature?
6109If so, why?
6109If, however, children can study, to what extent can they do it, and at how early an age should they begin to try?
6109If, then, the student has not found out what the leading ideas are, what basis of selection has he?
6109Imagining that some one has just crossed a desert, what dangers do you think he has encountered, and how may he have escaped from them?
6109In particular, how prominent in study should be the effort to memorize?
6109In response to the next question,"In what direction does each[ highland] extend?"
6109In that case, which is of the former kind, and which is of the latter?
6109In the East?
6109In the East?"
6109In the case of any person whose judgment is really deserving of confidence, how has it become so?
6109In what direction does each extend?
6109In what respects, if any, is the West more promising than the East to a young man starting in life?
6109In which direction do educational institutions, in particular, exert their influence?
6109In which direction does human nature most tend?
6109Indeed, they knew that they could not think, so what was the use of wasting more than two minutes for the sake of appearances?
6109Instead of either condemning or accepting authors, is it his duty merely to understand and remember what they say?
6109Is all our knowledge more or less doubtful, so that we should hold ourselves ready to modify our ideas at any time?
6109Is he then through with a topic, or is more work to be done?
6109Is it best to allow them to lie long in water?
6109Is it desirable to have sunshine all the time?
6109Is it even highly unsafe for the latter to assume the responsibility of judging relative values?
6109Is it necessary to take them out and strike them with the palm of the hand, breaking them slightly?
6109Is not the curriculum already full enough, indeed full to completion?
6109Is not this, on account of the immaturity of children, necessarily so written as to make such supplementing unnecessary?
6109Is one then through with it?
6109Is such a contrast justified?
6109Is that an entirely passive attitude?
6109Is that desirable?
6109Is that true, however, of literature for children?
6109Is the father shown to be at fault in any respect in the training of his sons?
6109Is the weather particularly enjoyable there, or not?
6109Is their study to contain these factors also?
6109Is there a cradle of some sort?
6109Is there a similarly definite end to be reached in the study process?
6109Is there any proof that these were especially attractive children?
6109Is there any tenderness indicated on the part of the mother?
6109Is this standard met when the child understands and can reproduce in substance the definition of desert?
6109Is this story told as a warning or as a comfort?
6109Must we, then, pass upon everything; and is no person to be fully trusted?
6109Now, how much, if anything, must he add to what is directly presented to him by others?
6109Numerous other questions were considered, as follows:-- What is the best way to clean them?
6109Of a level surface?
6109Of square corners?
6109Oh sir, she smiled, no doubt, Whene''er I passed her; but who passed without Much the same smile?
6109Once more I said,"Four hundred and thirteen years since what?"
6109One day I asked them,"When has a book been read properly?"
6109One girl soon inquired,"Do you think that she would like to know how I am training my bird to sing?"
6109One might ask,"Are not all the statements in a valuable book that one happens to be reading worthy of careful consideration?"
6109One of the common questions in the combination of forms and colors, even in the kindergarten, is,"How do you like that?"
6109Or at least would such attempts seem to be normal for them?
6109Or by constructive work?
6109Or by paintings?
6109Or can it be that there are two kinds of knowledge?
6109Or could the children help much to bring it about?
6109Or did it happen only once?
6109Or do all facts have much the same value, so that they should receive about equal attention, as is the case with the multiplication tables?
6109Or do you always''go on''and''keep going on''?"
6109Or does he become subordinated to these, even submerged by them?
6109Or has the study then hardly begun?
6109Or is knowledge something apart from the active world, ending rather in self?
6109Or is that particularly what recitations and marks are for?
6109Or shall he assume a view- point of his own?
6109Or shall he avoid doing either, preserving an inactive mind?
6109Or shall he do neither?
6109Or shall he take all statements literally?
6109Or should extensive instruction be imparted to them, as well as to adults, on this subject?
6109Or should he learn to depreciate himself, to deplore those qualities that distinguish him from others?
6109Or the most beautiful?
6109Or was it rather an unpleasant time for him?
6109Or were other men equally or more prominent?
6109Or will it vary?
6109Or would such a critical attitude on his part toward a high authority be impertinent?
6109Or would such uncertainty too easily undermine his self- confidence and render him vacillating in action?
6109Or would that be the height of presumption on his part?
6109Or would that be too narrow, indeed, exactly the wrong way?
6109Or, do authors-- at least the greatest of them-- say most, or all, that they wish, and make their meaning plain?
6109Or, finally, is neither of these attitudes correct?
6109Or, if guests are not prompt, is there any way of keeping them in good condition?
6109Selection and reorganization of the profitable portion of these materials._"What am I getting from this author?"
6109Shall he assume the position of a mere receiver and collector?
6109Shall the student of either of these periods adopt the views of the author that he happens to be reading?
6109Shall the student recognize exaggeration as such?
6109Shall we, then, even while making these eliminations, make additions that may more than equal them?
6109Should anything be done with them while baking?
6109Should he learn even to ascribe whatever merit he may possess to the qualities that are peculiar to him?
6109Should he rather be a collector of facts at large, endeavoring to develop an interest in whatever is true, simply because it is true?
6109Should he smother his own desires and opinions in the attempt to satisfy his teacher?
6109Should memorizing constitute the main part of study-- as it so often does-- or only a minor part?
6109Should the oven be very hot, or is a slow heat preferable?
6109Should the statements that he receives be put into order by him?
6109Should the student, therefore, be taught to believe in and trust himself, holding his own powers and tendencies in high esteem?
6109Should the use of ideas be their goal?
6109Should they be prominent, or only a minor part of study?
6109Should they be served immediately?
6109Since one cookbook says that we want"dry and mealy"potatoes and another states that they should be"moist and sweet,"which is right?
6109Still not being satisfied, I went to a hardware store and asked,"Have you a man who can solder a thin metal plate over a small hole in a lead pipe?
6109That becomes very important as they mature; for how otherwise will they learn to study alone?
6109That is the reason that they so often inquire,"What is the use of it?"
6109That some facts are true for all time, and can be learned as absolutely true; and that others are only probabilities and must be treated as such?
6109The boy who was called upon for the third question,"Which is the broader and higher?"
6109The crucial question in this connection, therefore, is not,"Can children memorize?"
6109The fact that many fathers would be bored by such an hour suggests the query,"Did this father really enjoy it?"
6109The fact that the custom is so uncommon raises the further inquiry,"Was there any special merit among these children that led to it?"
6109The fact that we know this to be a very rare thing prompts the questions,"Was it customary in this family, or did it happen only once?"
6109The first of these two questions, therefore, is, Can children from six to fourteen years of age really be expected to study?
6109The great question of method, then, becomes, How shall one learn?
6109The important question now is, Is this, in general, the way in which the ordinary student should work?
6109The questions now arise, Are other kinds of supplementing also generally necessary?
6109The spirit of the teacher''s usual general question should be, How have you associated or related these facts?
6109These two questions, however, Can children study?
6109This can be further seen from the following topics in Biology: What household plants are most desirable?
6109To this end one should avoid putting mainly memory questions, such as, Who was it--?
6109To what extent must he be a producer in that sense?
6109To what extent shall this apply to children?
6109To what extent should other branches of knowledge resemble the useful arts in their combination of knowledge with the use of knowledge?
6109Under these circumstances, could it be expected that these children, in their teacher''s absence, would exhibit these same qualities?
6109Was it in place to argue much about such a matter?
6109Was n''t he probably right?
6109Was there ever a more vain, heartless, haughty, selfish, bartering gentleman- wretch?
6109Was this the custom each day?
6109What about noises of various kinds?

6109What should be its shape?
6109What should be the attitude of the young student toward the authorities that he studies?
6109What statements here need filling out, and how have you done it?

6109What were the routes of travel, by land, to the Indies?
6109What would be some of the pleasures of a walk in the desert?
6109What, then, are the best, and why?
6109What, then, is the proper attitude for the reader?
6109When was it--?

6109Which of the two is the better?
6109While they are an essential part of knowledge, do they themselves vary indefinitely in worth?
6109Who is to pass judgment upon their quality?
6109Who will assert that such lack of initiative is natural?
6109Who''d stoop to blame This sort of trifling?
6109Why are there not more?
6109Why could not the first Portuguese captain sail directly to the southern end of Africa?
6109Why did he hesitate about returning?
6109Why is it necessary to emphasize this matter so much, particularly with reference to young people?
6109Why not, if there is anything in habit?
6109Why should not the text- book in history and geography lie open in class, just as that in literature, if_ thinking_ is the principal object?
6109Why should she, if she has never been conscious of any particular weakness in that respect?
6109Why should they?
6109Why was it--?
6109Why, then, should he receive anything?"
6109Why, then, should they be taught to look past this period, to their distant future as the harvest time for their knowledge and powers?
6109Why?
6109Will''t please you rise?
6109Will''t please you sit and look at her?
6109Would it be narrowly utilitarian and even foolish to expect that one''s learning shall necessarily function in practical life?
6109Would not a class in a normal school or a college show greater capacity for leadership?
6109Yet even these may be only ideas; what means has he for knowing when they have been attained?
6109Yet is this true?
6109Yet no one asked any one else"Why?"
6109Yet what better state can be conceived?
6109Yet, should his method be the same?
6109_ Do children need the help of specific aims?_ The first question to consider is, Do children seriously need the help of such aims?

5427Why,said I, trying to check him, and laughing in my turn at his impetuosity,"will this young head never grow any older?
5427You will make him timid and cowardly,do you say?
5427--Must I think that the idea of this bridge where so many iniquities are made good is of no avail?
5427A man must know many things which seem useless to a child, but need the child learn, or can he indeed learn, all that the man must know?
5427A really happy man is a hermit; God only enjoys absolute happiness; but which of us has any idea what that means?

5427And how do you know that your sect is in the right?
5427And if it were necessary to leave her why not leave her as his wife with a certain pledge of his return?

5427And in the harsh law imposed upon him before he can understand it, what will he see but the caprice and hatred of a man who is trying to torment him?
5427And then to which should we give heed?
5427And to not the general laws of nature and morality make provision for this state of things?
5427And to whom should it be a matter of indifference?
5427And what is a citizen of the state?
5427And what is the cause that determines his judgment?
5427And what price did she put upon herself?

5427And yet I must learn to lose you, for who knows when you may be taken from me?
5427And your ministers, what are they?

5427Are their desires as boundless as those of women, which are curbed by this shame?
5427Are their speech organs differently made from our own?
5427Are there not habits formed under compulsion, habits which never stifle nature?
5427Are there two or many?
5427Are these to be the favourite accomplishments of men or women?
5427Are they all alike in heart and in name?
5427Are they forced, against their will, to spend half their time over their toilet, following the example set them by you?
5427Are they so much wiser than I, is the affection of a day stronger than mine?
5427Are those who lose their modesty more sincere than the rest?
5427Are those who make a trade of religion religious people?
5427Are we right?
5427Are women capable of solid reason; should they cultivate it, can they cultivate it successfully?
5427Are you not master of his whole environment so far as it affects him?
5427Are you the Sophy whom my heart is seeking?
5427Are you the less its slave?
5427As soon as they can say"It hurts me,"why should they cry, unless the pain is too sharp for words?
5427As they went, the father said to his son,"Where is the kite that casts this shadow?"
5427As this assumption is consoling and in itself not unreasonable, why should I fear to accept it?
5427Boys and girls have many games in common, and this is as it should be; do they not play together when they are grown up?
5427Buffon?
5427But among the men of his own time where did Jesus find that pure and lofty morality of which he is both the teacher and pattern?
5427But can this love prevail over my love for my own well- being, and ought it so to prevail?
5427But did I tell you that an education according to nature would be an easy task?
5427But do they go into the heart of Africa, still undiscovered, where as yet no European has ever ventured?
5427But do you suppose you will live for ever?
5427But do you think there is any one man upon earth so depraved that he has never yielded to the temptation of well- doing?
5427But granting the usefulness of travel, does it follow that it is good for all of us?
5427But has this same world always existed, or has it been created?
5427But have I indeed retarded the progress of nature?
5427But how can a young man take part in the business of life?
5427But how is it that the good man consents to this to his own hurt?
5427But how many such attempts must I assume to bring the combination within the bounds of probability?
5427But how should he perceive these obstacles?
5427But if it is true that all matter feels, where shall I find the sensitive unit, the individual ego?
5427But if this friend can not be found, if this transfer is not easy, if none of my advice can be followed, you will say to me,"What shall I do instead?"
5427But in what do you suppose he thought this courage consisted?
5427But is it necessary to travel the whole globe to study mankind?
5427But is it within my power to furnish myself with other eyes, or to adopt other ideas?
5427But is man in a position to control his affections according to such and such relations?
5427But is this change in itself really necessary?
5427But shall we make of Emile a knight- errant, a redresser of wrongs, a paladin?
5427But speaking of death, what steps shall I take with regard to my pupil and the smallpox?
5427But tell me, O truthful man, though this passion is pure, is it any the less your master?
5427But that is not enough; in what desert, in what wilds, shall he escape from the thoughts which pursue him?
5427But the child who professes the Christian faith-- what does he believe?
5427But the south?
5427But we men are made for strength; do you think we can attain it without hardship, and what defence shall we be able to make if we are attacked?
5427But what are the facts to me, while I am ignorant of their causes, and what lessons can I draw from an event, whose true cause is unknown to me?
5427But what are these individuals?
5427But what can reason avail against weakness?
5427But what cause has Emile for haste?
5427But what do you say to prophecy?
5427But what does this rich man do, this father of a family, compelled, so he says, to neglect his children?
5427But what effect will this little performance have upon Emile?
5427But what is meant by this word"fact"?
5427But what is that life?
5427But what is to be done?
5427But what master will stop short and confess his faults to his pupil?
5427But what shall we decide to do?
5427But what would take the place of this negative instinct in women if you rob them of their modesty?
5427But when, in my desire to discover my own place within my species, I consider its different ranks and the men who fill them, where am I now?
5427But where is happiness?
5427But where is that country?
5427But where shall we find a place for our child so as to bring him up as a senseless being, an automaton?
5427But where there is no morality in love, why make such ado about the rest?
5427But whither am I going?
5427But who am I?
5427But who does not pity the wretch when he beholds his sufferings?
5427But who is he, where is he?
5427But who thinks this analysis necessary to make himself intelligible to children?
5427But why call him hither?
5427But why do these young men want to persuade you?
5427But why does the child choose special confidants?
5427But why put up with such an evil when there was no necessity to do so, when the remedy was so easy and so legitimate?
5427By these miracles who will not recognise the master of nature?
5427By what acquired knowledge did he seek to appease my wrath by yielding to my discretion?
5427CHILD: What must I do to grow old very, very slowly?
5427CHILD: When I am very, very old---- NURSE: Well?
5427CHILD: When we are so very old you say we must die?
5427Can I behold myself thus distinguished without congratulating myself on this post of honour, without blessing the hand which bestowed it?
5427Can a book at once so grand and so simple be the work of men?
5427Can devotion to the state exist apart from the love of those near and dear to us?
5427Can not it give itself a master, can not it find representatives?
5427Can not you make of him what you please?
5427Can patriotism thrive except in the soil of that miniature fatherland, the home?
5427Can pure spirits be capable of any perversity?
5427Can she be a nursing mother to- day and a soldier to- morrow?
5427Can such a one be found?
5427Can the motion we gave the water suffice to break, soften, or melt the stick like this?
5427Can this art be acquired?
5427Can you conceive of sensation in the same way?
5427Clouds of witnesses-- the witness of whole nations...."REASON: Is the witness of nations supernatural?
5427Could I guess that in another hemisphere there was a Hebrew nation and a town called Jerusalem?
5427Could it have made our nature a contradiction, and have given the prize of well- doing to one who was incapable of evil?
5427Could not we suggest an arrangement with this kind Robert?
5427Could they do it if they would?
5427Dark places of the human understanding, what rash hand shall dare to raise your veil?
5427Death.... Do not the wicked poison their own life and ours?
5427Did I promise to make the courses equal?
5427Did he know the meaning of mercy and generosity?
5427Did my father not ask that very question?

5427Did you inspire their young hearts with a taste for the true pleasures which are not to be met with in this tumult?
5427Did you show it in its true light?
5427Did you tell them plainly what it was they would see?
5427Do I not know how to work?
5427Do n''t you see he is a naughty little boy, who has been turned out of his own house because he is good for nothing?
5427Do not you see that I am favouring you, and that the inequality you complain of is all to your advantage, if you knew how to use it?"
5427Do not you see that your wild scheme would only make things worse, and Sophy more obstinate?
5427Do not young people of her age die?
5427Do they know how their children are being treated in the villages?
5427Do they not fancy that spirits groan, speak, fight, and make noises?
5427Do they reach the harems of the Asiatic princes to preach the gospel to those thousands of poor slaves?
5427Do we find a man forgotten by his benefactor, unmindful of that benefactor?
5427Do we not say to ourselves,"I should like to have done that myself"?
5427Do we take more pleasure in the sight of the sufferings of others or their joys?
5427Do you delight in the crimes you behold?

5427Do you know how often you must have seen her and under what varying conditions to really know her temper?
5427Do you know the meaning of such terms as government, laws, country?
5427Do you know the price you must pay for life, and for what you must be prepared to die?
5427Do you know the surest way to make your child miserable?
5427Do you make any distinction between the pupil and the scholar?
5427Do you not know that many children have always been weak and sickly because their mother was little more than a child herself?
5427Do you not know that too early motherhood has weakened the constitution, destroyed the health, and shortened the life of many young women?

5427Do you not see that in your efforts to improve upon her handiwork you are destroying it; her cares are wasted?
5427Do you perceive folly when you mistake it for wisdom?
5427Do you suppose I am any better off?
5427Do you suppose she will live for ever?
5427Do you suppose you can exhibit in the salon without further ado?
5427Do you think it cost him nothing to stay?
5427Do you think it is so easy to find a place where you can always live like an honest man?
5427Do you think she could do with something simpler?
5427Do you think that the earlier years of a child, who has reached his fifteenth year in this condition, have been wasted?
5427Do you think this time of liberty is wasted?
5427Do you think you have anything to gain by this?
5427Do you weep over the punishment which overtakes the criminal?
5427Do you wish to be dependent on men whom you despise?
5427Does a man go to death from self- interest?
5427Does a woman show her real character in a day?
5427Does fate strike so seldom that you can count on immunity from her blows?
5427Does he know how to compare masses of like substance and different size, or to choose between masses of the same size and different substances?
5427Does he know, how could he possibly know, what is meant by grand style and simple style?
5427Does it follow that I am not my own master because I can not be other than myself?
5427Does not the child need a mother''s care as much as her milk?
5427Does she not require a means of indicating her inclinations without open expression?
5427Does that prevent history from telling you the cause of defeat or victory with as much assurance as if she had been on the spot?
5427Does the same kind of singing suit all voices alike?
5427Does this great painter need to write the names beneath the things he has painted?
5427Does this mean that she must be brought up in ignorance and kept to housework only?
5427Education itself is but habit, for are there not people who forget or lose their education and others who keep it?
5427Either my method is wrong, or he will answer me somewhat after this fashion--"What decision have I come to?
5427Emile and Sophy bow shyly and say nothing; what can they say in our presence?
5427Emile loves Sophy; but what were the charms by which he was first attracted?
5427Emile will you come home with me?
5427Fathers, can you tell when death will call your children to him?
5427Female animals are without this sense of shame, but what of that?
5427Fool, what harm has this bit of paper done you?
5427For a moment or two he was downcast, silent, and thoughtful, then looking me full in the face he said,"When do we start?"
5427For how can we escape from our vicious circle?
5427For in so doing what should I do but teach him to deny it?
5427For is it not still more certain that the son loves himself, than that the father loves the son?
5427For suppose you have convinced me by reason, how am I to know that it is not my reason, corrupted by sin, which makes me accept what you say?
5427For what do they teach?
5427From our windows we want to fish in the moat; how many yards of line are required?
5427God is intelligent, but how?
5427God who teaches me, through my reason, the eternal truth, or you who, in his name, proclaim an absurdity?
5427Granted, but what are you?
5427Had my dog, little more than a puppy, acquired moral ideas?
5427Has he ever condescended to inquire?
5427Has he not given me conscience that I may love the right, reason that I may perceive it, and freedom that I may choose it?
5427Has it any other grounds but that of its usefulness to the child, his weakness, and the natural love which his father feels towards him?
5427Has not God spoken it all to our eyes, to our conscience, to our reason?
5427Has not a woman the same needs as a man, but without the same right to make them known?
5427Has our eye set the stick straight?
5427Has she a house to manage?
5427Has she given them an imposing manner, a stern eye, a loud and threatening voice with which to make themselves feared?
5427Has the whole body of matter a uniform motion, or has each atom its own motion?
5427Hast thou ceased to exist?
5427Have I any independent knowledge of my existence, or am I only aware of it through my sensations?
5427Have I lost the use of my arms?
5427Have I not achieved my purpose?
5427Have they less need of speech, have they been less urged to it?
5427Have we not all beheld happy families gathered together, each contributing to the general amusement?
5427Have we not eyes and ears as well; and are not these organs necessary for the use of the rest?
5427Have you ever read Cleopatra or Cassandra or any books of the kind?
5427Have you no regard for manners or for reason?
5427Have you the heart to mingle their sweet fruits with the bones upon your table, to eat with the milk the blood of the beasts which gave it?
5427Having dabbled all your life in philosophy, will you never learn to reason?
5427Having need of nothing, why should they be wicked?
5427He does his best, and at last he makes out half the note; it is something about going to- morrow to drink cream-- Where?
5427He is longing to ask me again,"What is the use of taking one''s bearings?"
5427He may no doubt be deceived by his passions; who is there who yields to his passions without being led astray by them?
5427He rests securely on your foresight, why should he think for himself?
5427He should examine his hero''s conduct; has he omitted nothing; is there nothing he could have done better?
5427He will want all he sets eyes on, and unless you were God himself, how could you satisfy him?
5427Her mother says gently,"Sophy, control yourself; will you never cease to weep for the misfortunes of your parents?
5427His physical development?
5427His work and play, his pleasure and pain, are they not, unknown to him, under your control?
5427How am I to know that the translations are correct, or how am I to make sure that such a thing as a correct translation is possible?
5427How can he feel the beauty of nature, while the hand that formed it is unknown?
5427How can people make a duty of the tenderest caresses, and a right of the sweetest pledges of love?
5427How can she incline them to virtues of which she is ignorant, to merit of which she has no conception?
5427How can that be?"
5427How can we avoid these two difficulties?
5427How can what is heard by impure ears avoid coarseness?
5427How can you sacrifice desire to duty, and resist your heart in order to listen to your reason?
5427How can your child know men, when he can neither judge of their judgments nor unravel their mistakes?
5427How could this man desire to make a book out of the wonders of nature, wonders which show the wisdom of the author of nature?
5427How do you know that you can spare him anything by the vexations you heap upon him now?
5427How does a will produce a physical and corporeal action?
5427How does he show this?
5427How does it concern a schoolboy to know how Hannibal encouraged his soldiers to cross the Alps?
5427How does the fate of the wicked concern me?
5427How far did you enjoy all that the produce of distant lands and the service of many people had prepared for you at the other dinner?
5427How have you contrived to be happy?"
5427How is Epictetus the better for knowing beforehand that his master will break his leg for him; does he do it any the less?
5427How is it that this art, so useful and pleasant in itself, has become a terror to children?
5427How many we see walking badly all their life because they were ill taught?
5427How often have I been tempted to be like him?
5427How often?
5427How shall I become aware of this need?
5427How shall he behold with rapture the birth of this fair day, if his imagination can not paint the joys it may bring in its track?
5427How shall the song of the birds arouse voluptuous emotion if love and pleasure are still unknown to him?
5427How shall they judge of our opinions, or we of theirs?
5427How should I make him want to run without saying anything?
5427How should I suppose that such a child can ever be happy?
5427How should he be dependent on any one when he is self- sufficing and free from prejudice?
5427How should their travels teach them to shake off the yoke of prejudice?
5427How then shall its rights be established by men of that type?
5427How will she know what is good for them?
5427How will you answer that question?
5427How will you despise the vices and the baseness from which you get your living?
5427How would she like their airs?
5427I am inclined to think she will be faithful and true; but who will answer for her, and who will answer for you if you are not put to the proof?
5427I believe that the soul survives the body for the maintenance of order; who knows if this is enough to make it eternal?
5427I can not understand how he could be docile at ten, for what hold have I on him at that age?
5427I continue, interrupting him;"does Emile suppose I shall teach him to deserve such titles?"
5427I do not say the good will be rewarded, for what greater good can a truly good being expect than to exist in accordance with his nature?
5427I fancy I could easily answer that objection, but why should I answer every objection?
5427I have just heard a child severely scolded by his father for saying,"Mon pere, irai- je- t- y?"
5427I have sometimes studied those men who pay great attention to good eating, men whose first waking thought is-- What shall we have to eat to- day?
5427I know not; and what concern is it of mine?
5427I know not; have I entered into the counsels of the Almighty?
5427I know she is virtuous; but is that enough?
5427I know that this power is abused by the sly and the spiteful; but what is there that is not liable to abuse?
5427I lost my money, she lost her position; forgotten by her family, what good did it do her to be a lady born?
5427I remember seeing a geography somewhere which began with:"What is the world?"
5427I said in a tone of pity,"are you already blinded by passion?
5427I said to myself: Why should I strive to find what does not exist?
5427I see Emile watching my action and I say,"Why does this stone fall?"
5427I should still have to answer the question,"What becomes of man when all we know of him through our senses has vanished?"
5427I want to make a swing between two trees; will two fathoms of cord be enough?
5427If God has gone so far as to speak to men, why should he require an interpreter?
5427If I am tired-- but Emile is hardly ever tired; he is strong; why should he get tired?
5427If I keep him apart from society, what will he have learnt from me?
5427If I must accept general laws whose essential relation to matter is unperceived by me, how much further have I got?
5427If I vainly lavish my care upon him, what can I do but double the loss to society by robbing it of two men, instead of one?
5427If I wish to be easy and complaisant, to shut my eyes, what good does it do him to be under my care?
5427If a man were content to live, he would live happy; and he would therefore be good, for what would he have to gain by vice?
5427If a slave is to judge whether his master is fulfilling his contract, is not the nation to judge whether its head is fulfilling his contract?
5427If a vegetable diet is best for the child, how can meat food be best for his nurse?
5427If any imperfect creature were self- sufficing, what would he have to enjoy?
5427If each molecule has its own direction, what are the causes of all these directions and all these differences?
5427If he can rise above the crowd, if he can excel his rivals, what more does he want?
5427If he could do so he ought not desire it; for what difference does rank make to a young man, at least to my pupil?
5427If he had his choice, would he hesitate for a moment between you and me?
5427If he has seen crows will he believe that they can hold a cheese in their beak?
5427If he is disturbed and urged onward by his senses, where will he find satisfaction?
5427If he stops, why should he be bored?
5427If he thinks you do not know, he will say to himself,"Why should I make my fault known?"
5427If he would have a man all face, why blame me if I would have him all feet?
5427If her disposition is what I fancy why should not her father speak to her somewhat after this fashion?
5427If it is not easy to discover this opportunity in your scholars, whose fault is it?
5427If my heart and my actions continually give her the homage she deserves, what harm can I do her?"
5427If she speaks to all hearts, how is it that so few give heed to her voice?
5427If she treated them alike, would she not show that they both had the same claims upon her?
5427If so, how has power ever come to be divided, and how is it that there is more than one head to govern the human race throughout the world?
5427If some mischief has been done in my absence and I do not know who did it, I shall take care not to accuse Emile, nor to say,"Did you do it?"
5427If the child has never seen crows, what is the good of talking about them?
5427If the master''s Greek and Latin is such poor stuff, what about the children?
5427If the nation can not alienate its supreme right, can it entrust it to others for a time?
5427If the people were as wise as we assume them to be stupid, how could they be other than they are?
5427If the philosophers were in a position to declare the truth, which of them would care to do so?
5427If the wicked were alone, what evil would he do?
5427If then a slave can not convey himself altogether to his master, how can a nation convey itself altogether to its head?
5427If they know how to make a profit out of their neighbours, what more do they need to know?
5427If we had the offer of immortality here below, who would accept the sorrowful gift?
5427If you can not put up with involuntary privations how will you voluntarily deprive yourself?
5427If you did not get a better meal, what good did this wealth do you?
5427If you perceive nothing in a man''s actions beyond merely physical and external movements, what do you learn from history?
5427In conclusion, although here and there a woman may have few children, what difference does it make?
5427In the continual flow of words with which you overwhelm them, do you think there is none which they get hold of in a wrong sense?
5427In the first place,"Is it good in itself"In the second,"Can it be easily put into practice?"
5427In the midst of this host of simultaneous impressions and the thoughts excited by them, how can he fail now and then to make mistakes?
5427In this age of degradation who knows the height of virtue to which man''s soul may attain?
5427In what direction then does matter move of necessity?
5427Indeed, what use would reason be to him at that age?
5427Is Emile aware that he is rich?
5427Is every Sophy he meets his Sophy?
5427Is fitness merely a matter of honour?
5427Is four months of liking a sufficient pledge for the rest of your life?
5427Is he afraid we should not understand it?
5427Is he hungry or thirsty?
5427Is he mad to fall in love with a person of whom he knows so little, with whom he has scarcely exchanged a couple of words?
5427Is he not therefore his own master, independent of all men, even of his father himself?
5427Is he really changed?
5427Is it Aristotle?
5427Is it a crime to be unaware of what is happening half a world away?
5427Is it a good thing that there should be great nations?
5427Is it a single sensitive being, or are there as many beings in it as there are grains of sand?
5427Is it any the less a woman''s business to be a mother?
5427Is it chance that he can see her so seldom and must purchase the pleasure of seeing her at the price of such fatigue?
5427Is it chance that makes them so suited to each other?
5427Is it chance that they can not live in the same place, that he is compelled to find a lodging so far from her?
5427Is it compatible with becoming simplicity?
5427Is it man''s influence that has taught cooks to tear each other to pieces or bulls to fight to the death?
5427Is it my fault if I love what has no existence?
5427Is it nature that carries men so far from their real selves?
5427Is it not a natural consequence of our self- love to honour our protector and to love our benefactor?
5427Is it not an expedient of your designing against the lady of the ruffles?"
5427Is it not merely another result of our own prejudices?
5427Is it not of vital importance that she should learn to touch his heart without showing that she cares for him?
5427Is it not that mixed condition which partakes of both and secures neither?
5427Is it not the good son, the good husband, the good father, who makes the good citizen?
5427Is it not this partial and imperfect association which gives rise to tyranny and war?
5427Is it not very strange that this superfluity should make him miserable?
5427Is it pleasanter to do a kind action or an unkind action, and which leaves the more delightful memory behind it?
5427Is it possible that he whose history is contained in this book is no more than man?
5427Is it so hard to win love by love, happiness by an amiable disposition, obedience by worth, and honour by self- respect?
5427Is it strange that he rebels and hates you too?
5427Is it weakness which yields to force, or is it voluntary self- surrender?
5427Is it you that I love?
5427Is my strength failing me?
5427Is not bodily suffering a sign that the machine is out of order and needs attention?
5427Is not every useful trade honest?
5427Is not it a very foolish way of teaching, to teach people in an unknown tongue?
5427Is not such a cruel bondage certain to affect both health and temper?
5427Is not the choice yours?
5427Is not the wicked my brother?
5427Is not this more than enough to clear up the business and to discover refraction?
5427Is not this poor child, without knowledge, strength, or wisdom, entirely at your mercy?
5427Is she pretty enough to do without this or that?"
5427Is she to be man''s handmaid or his help- meet?
5427Is that stone an individual or an aggregate of individuals?
5427Is that the price you offer for her parents''hospitality?
5427Is that what our master teaches us?
5427Is the fish ungrateful?
5427Is the fisherman a benefactor?
5427Is the heart controlled by the will?
5427Is the same method adapted to every mind?
5427Is the soul of man in its nature immortal?
5427Is the tone of this book, the tone of the enthusiast or the ambitious sectary?
5427Is their meeting the work of chance?
5427Is there any man so stupid that he can not see how all this hangs together?
5427Is there any who endures an affront with greater patience, any who is more afraid of annoying others?
5427Is there any with less pretension, except in the matter of virtue?
5427Is there one source of all things?
5427Is there only one Sophy in the world?
5427Is this association practicable, and supposing that it were established, would it be likely to last?
5427Is this culture useful in relation to the functions laid upon them?
5427Is this my pupil?
5427Is thy soul destroyed?
5427It is all very well to swim, run, jump, whip a top, throw stones; but have we nothing but arms and legs?
5427It is strange that these voices often contradict each other?
5427Just so; but do not you see that as soon as the mind has got any ideas at all, every judgment is a process of reasoning?
5427Let us see your watch; what time is it?
5427May I count on your goodwill?
5427May I venture at this point to state the greatest, the most important, the most useful rule of education?
5427Merciful God, where is thy Power?
5427Modesty only begins with the knowledge of evil; and how should children without this knowledge of evil have the feeling which results from it?
5427More than ever the sport of public opinion, how will you rise above the prejudices on which your fate depends?
5427Moreover the grown man has already a settled profession, occupation, and home, but who can tell what Fate holds in store for the child?
5427Moreover, if a woman is quite unaccustomed to think, how can she bring up her children?
5427Mr. Robert, do people often lose the seed of Maltese melons?
5427Must I abdicate my authority when most I need it?
5427Must I continue this sad story to its close?
5427Must I describe the long struggles which preceded it?
5427Must I paint an angry father forgetting his former promises, and treating the most virtuous of daughters as a mad woman?

5427NURSE: Who will live after you?
5427NURSE: Why did he die?
5427NURSE: Why is she not young now?
5427NURSE: Why not, when you have such a good memory?

5427NURSE: Will you grow old?
5427Nature has made children helpless and in need of affection; did she make them to be obeyed and feared?
5427Need we go to Japan to study Europeans?
5427Need we know every individual before we know the species?
5427Neither do I ask of him the power to do right; why should I ask what he has given me already?
5427No doubt God is eternal; but can my mind grasp the idea of eternity?
5427Notice too the skilful way in which he avoids the hiatus in irai- je- y or y- irai- je?
5427Now and then I go without him; he is sorry, but he does not complain; what use would it be?
5427Now if that woman were to show the same confidence in both, if she were to be equally familiar with both, how could they be deceived for a moment?
5427Now tell me what we shall do with him?
5427Now, what should be done in such a case?
5427O Providence, is this thy rule over the world?
5427O Wisdom, where are thy laws?
5427OF TRAVEL Is it good for young people to travel?
5427Oh, Emile, where is the man who owes nothing to the land in which he lives?
5427On the contrary; if he were not heedless of others when he lived alone, why should he be heedless of them now that he is living among them?
5427On the other hand, do you not see how children are fettered by the weakness of infancy?
5427On what grounds of justice can we answer this question?
5427Otherwise, how could he distinguish between two equal objects simultaneously experienced?
5427Ought the question, however, to be considered only from the physiological point of view?
5427Our first duty is towards ourself; yet how often does the voice of others tell us that in seeking our good at the expense of others we are doing ill?
5427Peter the Great was a ship''s carpenter and drummer to his own troops; was not that prince at least your equal in birth and merit?
5427Pliny?
5427Poor little men, what good does it do you?
5427Pure reason may lead us to approve or censure, but it is feeling which leads to action, and how shall we care about that which does not concern us?
5427Reason alone is not a sufficient foundation for virtue; what solid ground can be found?
5427Say what you will of combinations and probabilities; what do you gain by reducing me to silence if you can not gain my consent?
5427See whether the towns will supply them?]

5427Shall I disturb such pure enjoyment?
5427Shall I make your child miserable by exposing him to hardships which he is perfectly ready to endure?
5427Shall I place this unity in fluids and solids alike, in compounds and in elements?
5427Shall I proceed to the teaching of writing?
5427Shall I start the child upon this difficult question of metaphysics which grown men find so hard to understand?
5427Shall I take him away?"
5427Shall I, who desire that they should enjoy all the days of their life, shall I let them lose this precious day?
5427Shall he be inoculated in infancy, or shall I wait till he takes it in the natural course of things?
5427Shall he lay petitions before the judges and plead in the law courts?
5427Shall he thrust himself into public life, play the sage and the defender of the laws before the great, before the magistrates, before the king?
5427Shall it be in a straight line, in a circle, or from above downwards, to the right or to the left?
5427Shall it be in each molecule of matter or in bodies as aggregates of molecules?
5427Shall we keep him in the moon, or on a desert island?
5427Shall we remove him from human society?
5427Shall we say that the gospel story is the work of the imagination?
5427Shall we take a master to teach us the use of the plane and engage him by the hour like the dancing- master?

5427Should we not prefer that theory which alone explains all the facts, when it is no more difficult than the rest?"
5427Should we teach a six- year- old child that there are people who flatter and lie for the sake of gain?
5427Should young girls have masters or mistresses?
5427Show me truth and I will hold her fast; why does she hide her face from the eager heart that would fain worship her?"
5427Since human life is full of dangers, can we do better than face them at a time when they can do the least harm?
5427Since the mere choice of things shown him may make the child timid or brave, why should not his education begin before he can speak or understand?
5427Since the nation was a nation before it chose a king, what made it a nation, except the social contract?
5427Since they are certain they do not think, why do they dare to affirm that they feel?]
5427So I say to him,"Cultivate your father''s lands, but if you lose this inheritance, or if you have none to lose, what will you do?
5427Sophy is ill at ease; her mother is her confidant in all things, how can she keep this from her?
5427Sophy is so modest?
5427Swiss, Brie, or Dutch?

5427Tell me, my friend, when they talk to you of a blind force diffused throughout nature, do they present any real idea to your mind?
5427That is so, but what are these men but children spoilt by education?
5427That may be; but before you showed them this deceitful prospect, did you prepare them to behold it without emotion?
5427The consequences of the act being so different for the two sexes, is it natural that they should enter upon it with equal boldness?
5427The father being dead, should the children obey the eldest brother, or some other person who has not the natural affection of a father?
5427The first charms of sense?
5427The first question I find in our catechism is as follows:"Who created you and brought you into the world?"
5427The good man may be proud of his virtue for it is his own, but what cause for pride has the man of intellect?
5427The sorrowful, the dying, such sights of pain and woe, what happiness, what delight is this for a young heart on the threshold of life?
5427The woman who nurses another''s child in place of her own is a bad mother; how can she be a good nurse?
5427The world is a palace fair enough for any one; and is not everything at the disposal of the rich man when he seeks enjoyment?

5427Then what becomes of your grievance?
5427There is a very tall cherry tree; how shall we gather the cherries?
5427There is a wide stream; how shall we get to the other side?
5427There is no hurry?
5427There remains the education of the home or of nature; but how will a man live with others if he is educated for himself alone?
5427There were many charming girls in the town; is it chance that his choice is discovered in a distant retreat?
5427They are almost strangers; how should they love one another?
5427They have been educated for such a life; is it strange that they like it?
5427They tell me our room in the new house will be twenty- five feet square; do you think it will be big enough for us?
5427They will learn the symbols when they learn the things signified; why give them the useless trouble of learning them twice over?
5427This defect would be a glaring one in the nude; why should it be beautiful under the costume?
5427This farmer of the taxes who can only live on gold, what will he do in poverty?
5427This haughty fool who can not use his own hands, who prides himself on what is not really his, what will he do when he is stripped of all?
5427This is nature''s law; why contradict it?
5427This is too much; one man can only educate one pupil; if two were essential to success, what right would he have to undertake the first?
5427This is what they will say, but what care I?
5427This satrap whom you have educated for greatness, what will become of him in his degradation?
5427This saying is as deadly in its effects as it is incapable of proof; if all are equally happy why should I trouble myself about any one?
5427To acquire two languages he must be able to compare their ideas, and how can he compare ideas he can barely understand?

5427Vexed at my composure, he then approached me with eyes blazing with anger; and checking himself in an almost threatening attitude,"What would I do?
5427Was not the Roman people a great nation?
5427We are very hungry; here are two villages, which can we get to first for our dinner?

5427Why should he not tell everything to you as simply as to his little playmate?
5427Why should he refuse the happiness which awaits him?
5427Why should he time his walk?
5427Why should my pupil be always compelled to wear the skin of an ox under his foot?
5427Why should not the words of the prophets have authority over you?
5427Why should not you think as I do?
5427Why should the destruction of the one imply the destruction of the other?
5427Why should their food be the same when their way of living is so different?
5427Why should they think it wrong to cry when they find they can get so much by it?
5427Why should we blame the Creator for the ills we have ourselves created, and the enemies we ourselves have armed against us?
5427Why should you, who are their chief comfort, be more sensitive than they are themselves?"
5427Why so?
5427Why spend your time in teaching what will come of itself without care or trouble?
5427Why take such pains to adorn it when he will be so little in it?
5427Why then am I mistaken as to the relation between these two sticks, especially when they are not parallel?
5427Why then have I heard nothing?
5427Why then have I the same horror of his crimes as if he were living now?
5427Why then should a man need them to teach him his duty, and how did he learn his duty before these books were in existence?
5427Why then should we shut ourselves up within walls and gates as if we never meant to leave them?
5427Why urge him to the studies of an age he may never reach, to the neglect of those studies which meet his present needs?
5427Why, for example, do I say the small stick is a third of the large, when it is only a quarter?
5427Why?
5427Will Emile face the situation as bravely at his mistress''feet as he has done in conversation with his friend?
5427Will he be jealous or not?
5427Will he dispense with her greatest charm, her companionship?
5427Will he make an automaton of her?
5427Will he never see children of his own age?
5427Will he not always have around him the sight and the pattern of the passions of other people?
5427Will he not pardon the errors in which we were brought up, rather than those of our own choosing?
5427Will he not see his parents, his neighbours, his nurse, his governess, his man- servant, his tutor himself, who after all will not be an angel?
5427Will it be larger than this?
5427Will not he know when heart and eyes grant what the lips refuse?
5427Will not the pupil be roused to anger by the obstacles opposed to the only kind of happiness of which he has any notion?
5427Will she change her tastes and her feelings as a chameleon changes his colour?
5427Will she make a good soldier at an age when even men are retiring from this arduous business?
5427Will she tell the shepherd who pursues her among the willows that she only flees that he may follow?
5427Will the bonds of convention hold firm without some foundation in nature?
5427Will the child understand this cunning?
5427Will the ladder in the barn be big enough?
5427Will they all go to hell because of their seclusion?
5427Will they be rewarded for having been born in Rome rather than in Mecca?
5427Will this make him rude, scornful, and careless of others?
5427Will you postpone this trial till it is too late, will you wait to know your true selves till parting is no longer possible?
5427With steady look and firm voice I reply,"Emile, do you mean what you say?"
5427With the age of reason the child becomes the slave of the community; then why forestall this by slavery in the home?
5427With this exception is there anywhere on earth a gentler, sweeter girl?
5427With what a pretence of anger you dismiss Emile when his impatience leads him to interrupt you?
5427With whom?
5427Would Leander have braved death for the sake of Hero if the sea had not lain between them?
5427Would he not despise the hand which is offered him if he hesitated to accept it?
5427Would not that have taken place in his father''s house, and certainly he would not have acquired these maxims and this tone at home?
5427Would one of the wooden planks in the yard reach from bank to bank?
5427Would you bring disgrace on her who will one day make you the happiest of men?"
5427Would you find a really brave man?
5427Would you find out for yourself from books?
5427Would you guide him along this dangerous path and draw the veil from the face of nature?
5427Would you keep him as nature made him?
5427Would you like to come too?"
5427Would you now judge him by comparison?
5427Would you ruin her reputation?
5427Yet how will you make sure that you can preserve your pupil from such accidents?
5427You are honourable, I know; you will never break your word, but how often will you repent of having given it?
5427You ask me again, how do I know that there are spontaneous movements?
5427You have studied your duties as a man, but what do you know of the duties of a citizen?
5427You have the tools and the art to use them; are you not master of your trade?
5427You hope to be a husband and a father; have you seriously considered your duties?
5427You prejudiced people, would you have expected to find all this in a priest and in Italy?
5427You should not check a girl''s prattle like a boy''s by the harsh question,"What is the use of that?"
5427[ Footnote: Could one believe, if one had not seen it, that human absurdity could go so far?
5427[ Footnote:"But what will he do if any one seeks a quarrel with him?"
5427besides, what proof, what demonstration, can you advance, more self- evident than the axiom it is to destroy?
5427but by another question at least as difficult to answer,"What effect will that have?"
5427do even philosophers call names?
5427do we not still sacrifice all those baser feelings to the imaginary model?
5427do you expect to purchase a second father for your child?
5427do you say?
5427does not the very smell of it turn his stomach?
5427how can he bear the sight of this quivering flesh?
5427how much of it was made for you?
5427if I were to lose you, what would be left of myself?
5427if you have not the secret of winning their favour, if they fail to find you a rogue to their taste?
5427if you need telling, how can you comprehend it?
5427is it my fault that you have made all good things difficult?
5427is it nothing to be happy, nothing to run and jump all day?
5427mother, why did you make virtue too attractive?
5427now brave, now fragile, now robust?
5427replied the dancer,"You come from that island where the citizens have a share in the government, and form part of the sovereign power?
5427should we not carefully remove everything that narrows, concentrates, and strengthens the power of the human self?
5427there are tears; is he too cold or too hot?
5427thought I, is not truth one; can that which is true for me be false for you?
5427what art thou now?
5427what does that word really mean?
5427what has become of my labour, my work, the beloved fruits of my care and effort?
5427who does not know its unwelcome voice?
5427who forces you to shed blood?
5427who would not deliver him from his woes if a wish could do it?
5427would you have me die of grief for your sorrow without letting me share it?"
5427you dare not feel the living throbbing flesh between your teeth?
5427you will convince me that God has sent you to bear witness against himself?
