Excerpt from Practical Observations Upon the Education of the People, Addressed to the Working Classes and Their Employers
Fourthly, The preparation of elementary works is not the only, nor, at first, is it the most valuable ser111ce that can be ren dered'towards economizing the time of the labouring classes. The institution of Lectures is, of all the helps that can be given, the most valuable, where circumstances permit that is, in towns of a certain size. Much may thus be taught, even without any other instruction; but, combined with reading, and subservient: to it, the effects of public lectures are great indeed, especially in the present deficiency of proper elementary works. The stu dents are enabled to read with advantage; things are explained 1 to them which no books sufficiently illustrate; aceessis afforded to teachers, who can remove the difficulties which occur perpet ually in the reading of uneducated persons; a word may often suffice to get rid of some obstacle which would have impeded the unassisted student's progress for days and then, whatever requires the performance of experiments to become intelligible, can only be learnt by the bulk of mankind at a lecture, inas much as the Wealthy alone can have such lessons in private, and none but men highly gifted can hope to master those branches of science without seeing the experimental illustrations.
