A book has just come to our table, by courtesy
of the publishers, Messrs Eldredge s. Brother,
Philadelphia, entitled SIN the School Room" by
John s. Hart, l.. L. D., Principal Of the New
Jersey State Normal School. 1t is dedicated ito
the teachers of the United States, and especially
to the Alumn@ Of The Philadelphia High School
and the New Jersey State Normal School,"
The chapters commence In an off-hand and
popular style, and being short and filled with the
richness Of experience the reader continues
through the chapter without being wearicd. The
story of "The Boarding School Experience" Is
very interesting and profitable. The chapter on
Plrenology is quite amusing. The chapters on
Normal Schools and Practice Teaching are able,
valuable and practical. The chapter on Counsels
alone is worth tho price of tho book, which is
31.25, to every young tcacher,pupil and boarding
school girl. The book contains 2aG pages, In
beautiful Typography on fine paper bound in
cloth. Mailed to any address for above price.
