Moral Training

IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS By MARY H. LEONARD

This is a sane, suggestive, comprehensive discussion of the subject. It will show the teacher what can be done and how to do it. It should be thoughtfully read by every one who has to do with the training of children.

LEADING EDUCATORS' OPINIONS "I have not seen a more complete survey or a more rational treatment of the subject."

GEORGE H. MARTIN, Secretary Massachusetts Board of Education. "Thank you for your very suggestive discussion. The problem deserves the most careful thought of educators today.",

HENRY CHURCHILL KING,
President Oberlin College.

"Of greater value in promoting the ends aimed at than anything on the subject that has ever come to our hand. The section on the use of the Bible is of especial importance. ... This pamphlet should be in the hands of every teacher, superintendent, and school officer." JOURNAL OF EDUCATION.

At the many prettily situated towns in the Annapolis Valley, tourists can spend the summer in cozy retreat in a very inexpensive manner. The bracing air, filled with pure ozone, is the greatest appetizer in the world, and has made the "Land of Evangeline" famous as a health resort. The poet Longfellow, in "Evangeline," has only faintly outlined its manifold charms.

BAILEY-MANLY SPELLING BOOK

Price, Complete Edition, 25 cents

Part One, Grades 2-4, 15 cents

Part Two, Grades 5-8, 20 cents

This book represents a plan for the teaching of spelling which has been in successful use for several years. Its main features were determined ten years ago on the basis of long experience in teaching, and the details have been subjected to the test of actual use ever since. The success of the plan in the school in which it was first tried and in which the details were worked out, lead to its use in manuscript form in other schools.

The following points are of especial interest :—

(1) Method of selecting the Vocabulary.

(2) Economy in teaching new words.

(3) High literary quality of selections.

(4) Review words grouped as "Ear Words," "Ear

and Eye Words," and "Eye Words."

THE BEGINNERS' PRIMER

Price, 30 cents

This book will appeal strongly to first grade children. It contains stories and rhymes especially dear to them. Appropriate drawings, some in color, serve as attractive illustrations to the various lessons. A First Reader to follow this book is in press.
