period of literature-study, go in at one ear and
out at the other.
A teacher who wishes to use this con-
centrated system in detail, that rests on the
intelligent co-operation of the scholar, will nat-
urally find that the method is to be derived
from the personality of the teacher himself. I
think the teacher of history should not take
up the prehistoric period, but should give the,
scholar some good popular work on it and let
him go to a museum; he should then require a
written essay, to be illustrated by the scholar
with drawings of characteristic types of arch-
aeological specimens. In the same way, he
could give a comparative view of the same pe-
riod among other people. Then, if there were
a scholar especially anxious to learn, he could
put in his hands a work about the primitive
condition of man. Every teacher, man or
woman, can easily think out, for the subjects
they teach, analogous methods. The teacher
of geography who is talking about Siberia
can give some good general description of it
to all the scholars for their private study.
Those particularly interested would be re-
commended to read a narrative of travels in
Siberia, Dostojewsky’s Out of the Dead
