RECON- MENDATIONS
HARVARD COLLEGE, 18Th June, 1922.
The undersigned have examined Spelling
Book, prepared for publication, by Thomas J..
Lee, Esq. far as to be satisfied, that the mat
Ter IS well arranged, and that the reading les
sons are well-chosen. By careful selection of
words, in common use, for the tables. and BY
the arrangement of them. not only according TO
the accenfual sytiables, but also according TO
the long aud short sounds, the author has, in
our opinion. made valuable Improvements upon
those spelling books with which we are ac-
quainted We also approve his following the
pronu citation of Walker; since. whatever di-
versity Of taste there may be on the subject, it
is, few words excepted, the standard of Eng
Iish pronunciation in this country.
