Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief Survey of Educational Progress During the Decade 1900 to 1910 The purpose of this survey is to set forth some of the more salient features of educational development in the United States during the first decade of the new century. No one who has watched this growth will believe that it is possible to express it in any sort of completeness by statistical methods alone; but some of the more general and objective features can be handled in this manner, and by means of comparisons; general movements forward or backward may be seen. School statistics generally avail able, however, are faulty, and no amount-of effort can correct them so long as the various States ask for returns on different and varying bases. Hence all general conclusions reached as a result of the study of the educational statistics of the country must be taken with due allo'wance unless supported by evidence from other sources. It may not be out of place at this point to say that this office is working with all diligence to get correct and comparable returns from all States and that a plan presented looking toward this end has been indorsed by the 'department of Superintendence of the National Educational Association at the Mobile meeting in 1911. Within the coming decade it is expected that more reliable returns will'be available and that they will be ready for publication in the year to which they relate. At any rate, this bureau is determined to make the attempt. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
