The main design of these first lessons in algebra is to afford pupils training in the algebraic solution of problems which may also be solved by analysis or other arithmetical processes, thus correlating arithmetic and algebra in a practical manner. Exercises are also given in the fundamental processes with algebraic numbers both integral and fractional in form, the algebraic processes being similar to the corresponding processes in arithmetic. Only so much of algebraic notation is given as is necessary in the use of the equation in solving problems and in the more elementary processes. Care has been taken not to include technical matter that properly belongs to text-books for use in high schools. Technical algebra has no value that justifies its introduction before arithmetic is properly completed.
