Abstract
(1) MR. THODAY'S text-book is intended primarily for use in connection with the Senior Cambridge Local Examinations, but it is hoped that it may prove of more general service to teachers as well as to scholars in the upper forms of secondary schools. Since the author brings to bear on his task not only his experience as a teacher, but some years' experi ence as an examiner, he should be in a fair way to succeed. A good text-book is one of the factors which may bring success in these examinations, but the efficient teacher and adequate provision in the school curriculum are also factors which cannot be eliminated.
