The plan of grouping is based upon the relation of ideas, either of resemblance or of contrast. The leading word of the group is placed first, and these words are arranged in alphabetic order in the Table of Contents. Words representing ideas which do not fall readily into groups, observe the same alphabetic arrangement. It is believed that this plan will render the work easy of reference.
