Synopsis
Excerpt from Geography Notes
In preparing this little work on Entrance Geography, we have endeavored to treat the subject in such an order as will develop the observing and reasoning faculties, as well as the memory.
We should study Geography that we may become acquainted with the earth, the habitation of man, that we may know the advantages of the climate and the natural resources of each part of its surface, and the way man is profiting by these natural advantages. The subject has, therefore, been presented in the following order:
(1) The earth as a part of the solar system.
(2) The surface of the earth and its natural divisions of land and water.
(a) General - The definitions taken up topically
(b) Particular - The position, surface, drainage and coast-features of the continents.
(3) The wealth of land and sea which interests man, and how man is taking advantage of this for self, society and mankind. This takes up the countries, forms of government, commercial centres, products, exports, imports, and commercial routes.
The matter has been carefully selected and arranged, and the matters of most importance have been set up in large and heavy-faced type. The time usually occupied in copying notes can now be saved; the energy usually spent in this way can be more profitably used; and in this way, both teacher and pupil will be assisted in covering the work prescribed for us by the Education Department.
