Extract from Dr. WHEWELL'S Work on 'A LIBERAL As the basis of all real progress in Mathematics, boys ought to acquire a good knowledge of Arithmetic and a habit of performing the common operations of Arithmetic, and of applying the rules in a correct and intelligent manner. This acquirement appears to be often neglected at our most eminent classical schools. Such a neglect is much to be regretted; for the want of this acquirement is a great practical misfortune, and is often severely felt in after-life. Many persons who are supposed to have received the best education which the country affords, are, in all matters of numerical calculation, ignorant and helpless, in a manner which places them, in this respect, far below the members of the middle class, educated as they usually are. Arithmetic is a matter of habit, and can be learnt only by longcontinued practice. For some years of boyhood there ought to be a daily appropriation of time to this object. |
