. The Kindergarten-Primary Magazine . resent the wholering first, afterward the quarter and half. Theseand allother lessons must be adapted to the capacity and interestof the pupils. In all education the unknown must be linkedwith the known. The child who does not comprehend quitefully is not interested, and is not likely to advance. A few suggestive designs are given.
