Educational Administration and Criticism

Excerpt from Educational Administration and Criticism: A Sequel to the "Holmes Circular" Such preface as the author wishes to contribute to this book will be found (if an Irishism may be allowed) at its end instead of its beginning. He desires in this place, however, to thank Dr. Adams for his words of intro duction, Dr. Spearman for some valuable criticisms of Chapters XIII. And XIV the editors of several journals for permission to reproduce certain articles, and Mr. W. J. Saunders for assistance with the proof-reading. He would also add that an implication on page 215 needs to be qualified by what is said on page 154, and that the eulogistic references to two ex-elementary teachers who, while receiving singularly little recog nition of a practical kind from their own country, are absolutely in the front rank of constructive educationists, and are recognised as such in every country but their own, are made without the knowledge or consent of the gentlemen in question.
