dapted to use in our common schools. The editor
very truly observes in his preface, 1t is universal

counted over forty pieces that she knew. They
are, almost without exception, choice tunes, well
adapted for school-room use. Most of the new mu-
sic will become popular. The elements are well
arranged for vocal practice. - Ohio Educational
