Excerpt from Cranford IF Cranford is not approached in a careful and sympa thetic manner, it may be a disappointing book to both teacher and pupil. Some preparation is needed, to make, in the common expression Of the word, an atmosphere. The teacher may blaze the way by telling about the character istics of an English village or by exhibiting pictures or postcards of Knutsford.1 Pupils may contribute their share toward the preparation by telling or writing about village life as they know it. These accounts should be acute in giving careful particulars and details Of the ways Of the people of the village, their houses, their gossip, and their views of the world. This preparation, however, should not be done after the manner of a big whistle on a small boat, - all noise and no speed. Rather should it be a prelude, quietly and easily done, that a harmonious proportion may be estab lished. History, with all its accessories, should be avoided as the very plague itself.
