Excerpt from Let Him First Be a Man and Other Essays: Chiefly Relating to Education and Culture

Talks, rather than essays. Some of the pieces have appeared in Education the Ohio Educa tional Monthly, Intelligence, and other journals. The dominant purpose of the several essays and of the collection is to Oppose the deadening influence of mere mechanical routine in the training of children, whether in school or at home. The Procrustean bedstead, the cramming-machine, the conser vative groove, still find a place in the generality of schoolhouses, and there is still need of abolitionists to urge their removal.
