GREETING.

The teacher of children must know how toguide her work so that the seemingly trivialbeginnings shall tend toward a goal whose attainmentis worth striving for. Hers is aday of small things. The child does not seethe end from the beginning, but the teachermust, and the constant recognition of the desiredobject must influence her simplest lesson.

These pages are written in the hope of helpingteachers to appreciate the true import ofthe familiar task. They attempt to interpretand to dignify the commonplace routine. Theyhave grown out of thoughtful experience, andare sent forth with good will, to their service.

Sarah Louise Arnold.

Boston, Mass.,July, 1899.
