(2) HISTORICAL SECTION.
In view of the movement for improving the teaching both of History and of English in schools, the question is often asked how an inelastic time-table is to find room for all the demands made upon it. One key to the difficulty, at least, is to be found in the proper correlation of these subjects, and a prominent aim of this series is to assist in correlating the study of History and Geography with the study of Literature and with practice in the art of English Composition
The special features which have distinguished the series of "English Literature for Secondary Schools” are continued, viz.—Short Introductions (biographical, historical and stylistic) and brief Notes; Glossary (where necessary), Questions and Subjects for Essays; Passages for Repetition, Helps to Further Study Maps and Chronological Tables are inserted where they seem likely to be useful.

[English Literature for Secondary Schools,
SOME PRESS OPINIONS.
"Golden Deeds, Part II."
The Schoolmistress.—"There are seven of these charmingly written stories of brave and beautiful deeds by heroes and heroines in various lands. The selection, the introductions, notes, and glossary are by Helen H. Watson. Many teachers devote one lesson a week to the reading of interesting stories, and this book would supply excellent material for such lessons in elementary schools."
"Longfellow's Shorter Poems."
The Schoolmaster.—"The book is intended for use in secondary schools, and is exceedingly well adapted for that purpose."
"Tale of Troy."
The Schoolmaster.—The story is well told in style and language at once suitable for the young and in harmony with the antiquity of the original."
Journal of Education—"It is excellently conceived and done."
"Sir William Temple."
The Schoolmaster.—"The selecting and editing has been thoroughly well done, and the style and binding are such as to make the books a pleasure to handle. They are sure to become favourites."
"The Boy's Odyssey" and "Select Scenes and Passages from the Historical Plays of Shakespeare."
School World.—"These are intended for secondary-school use, and are well edited: The idea of using (illegible text) Walter Copland Perry's book as a reader is distinctly good, and Mr Peppin's introduction is capital. All the usual valuable features of this excellent series are reproduced in these editions, which may be safely commended as highly interesting matter for literature classes."
"Childe Harold's Pilgrimage. Cantos III. and IV."
School World.—" Besides the glossaries and notes to each canto, this capital little edition contains some well-considered questions, subjects for essays, suggestions for paraphrase, and also of passages suitable for repetition. It will be seen at once that all the necessary material for a useful manual has been collected in these pages. The helps to further study also are worthy of great attention, and, carefully used by a teacher, may be made serviceable in enlarging the grasp of younger minds upon these cantos of Byron's poem. Altogether and in every way commendable."
