Excerpt from A Practical and Theoretical Arithmetic: Designed for the Use of Schools and Academies
Believing that conciseness is a great merit in a text book, we have endeavored to state the principles of the science, to point out their application, and to give all necessary explanations, with brevity. At the same time we have made an effort to pre sent everything with clearness and fulness, and to give the pupil all the necessary aid.
