Excerpt from An Advanced Rational Speller: For the Highest Grammar Classes, and Secondary Schools

The only excuse for imposing another speller upon the public is its necessity. Spelling-books as a rule deal with words that pupils might misspell, or perhaps should misspell, but which in fact they do not. A few words taken at random from the second lesson of a very good speller will serve to illustrate the point. Chirography, chirurgery (marked obsolete in Webster's International), chirology, chiromancy, crinoid, crinal, primordial, climatology, are all very good words in their way, but unfortunately they are used by few pupils, who, if they use them intelligently, generally know how to spell them; meanwhile the rank and file are misspelling, description separate stratagem, enemies to, too, benefiting, privilege, thus violating well known rules of spelling and derivation.

The necessity of the use of a speller containing words frequently misspelled, supplemental to the regular text book, has called into existence The Advanced Rational Speller. The Advanced Rational Speller is a three years record of the misspelled words in all subjects pursued at the Eastern High School, Washington, D.C. The book is designed for use in the high school and the grades immediately below it.
