Excerpt from The Teaching Botanist a Manual of Information Upon Botanical Instruction Including Outlines and Directions for a Synthetic General Course This is a book of ideals. In its pages I have tried to set forth the chief factors involved in the best of botani cal teaching, well believing that it is good for each per son to hitch his wagon to a star. It is true that we may never be able to attain to these, any more than to other ideals, for all alike they are veritable will 0' the wisps which waft themselves farther away just as we reach forth to grasp them. However, 'this matters but little, since man is made in such fashion that pursuit holds more joy than possession, and visions more charm than realities. That we cannot attain to our ideals is, therefore, the least of objections against them. They have, how ever, at least one positive merit. They can serve as a perennial balm for the soul, or a kind of a Spiritual ra dium, sending forth a perpetual emanation to keep work and life aglow. Besides, they may be made to do service in practical ways, as definite goals to be aimed at, or as standards of value to which we may point those objectors who question the aim of our efforts. So, from all points of View ideals are in place, and in generous measure, in a book that is given to teaching.
