To the teacher, therefore, this article is purely suggestive. It is for 

 the trained teacher who possesses independence and initiative to work 

 out his own course. His course should grow with his growth and with

 literature, in industry, in all its conditions and endeavors, showing the 

 place it has taken and the place it is destined to take in the building 

 up of the national spirit and character.
