20 School Teachers and
others
NOUR attention is a moment called TO a
Il little Schhool Book entitled the
CHILD'S ASSISTANT.

Il little School Book entitled the
CHILD'S ASSISTANT,
to knowledge OF the Geography and his
tory OF Vermont, by S. r. Hall. 1t has al
ready passed through six large editions, and
is now offered Tor sale by the publishers,
with the belief that it is one of the best ee-
menlary works ever put into the hands Of
children. The present system of putting a
child to study the Geographic of the World,
before he can even bound his otUn toic;. or
county is certainly wrong. How many there
are who can answer almost any question
respecting the Geography OF the World and
are yet unable TO give the boundaries OF the
County in which they live, much less OF the
several counties in the State! and how many
have a cnmpend Of General History, while
they remain ignorant OF the History OF
their native Stale This book is intended to
supply this defect in the education of the
children OF Vermont. A child should first
study the Geography and History OF lis
own State and then sJme elementary Geog-
raphy OF the World: and next he may take
Il larger Geography.
