To the members of the National Council of
Education:

The papers that are here brought together and stamped with the title "Studies in Education," in the range of their dates just cover the period of my association with you in what we familiarly call THE COUNCIL: 18851895. Several of these papers were written as contributions to our discussions, and all of them have been influenced directly or indirectly by those discussions. It seems to me fitting, therefore, that I should inscribe the volume to you. In so doing, I wish to bear witness to the great service that the Council has rendered me in stimulating and guiding my studies of educational subjects, and in the formation of lasting friendships. Esto perpetua.

THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN,

January 15, 1896.
