Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from School Arithmetic: Practical Book
The book contains a very large number of problems, both oral and written, which are for the most part new. These have been selected and graded with great care. It will be noted that apart from the mathematical calculations involved in them, the controlling factor in their selection has been a desire to arouse the interest and hold the attention of the pupil. This has been done by basing problems on facts With which the pupil is familiar or which appeal to him as worthy of investigation.
