The readers Of the PHGNIX may recall
the fact that sometime during tho past win
ter little work with the above title was
lavorably noticed in this paper, and that its
immediate introduction into the several
schools Of this town was recommended by
the superintendent 1t seems, however,
that no attention was given 10 this sugges-
ton by those who have the educational in
terests Of the town in charge, and that
while few copies of the book were pur-
chased by individuals, the work Itself is
unknown in our schools at the present time.
The first edition of the book is now ox-
hausted, and a second, Of double the num-
Der Of copies is now passing through tho
press. The publishers, Messrs. Cheney 81
Clapp, have received the most nattering
testimonials from parties well qualified TO
Judge of its merits. The Provost of the
University of Pennsylvania writes thus
concerning IL III have read with great in
terest and pleasure the little book, Good
Behavior intended for the use OF pupils
in the public schools. 1 entirely agree
with the gentleman who prepared this man
ual, that good behavior is a subject con-
corning Whlcn our young people Sauly
need instruction. 1t seems TO me that all
that can be done to teach correct notions on
this subject By prccePt has been done in
this little book. The effort to in
spirc young people with correct principles
in this matter deserves all praise, and l
sincerely hope that your admirable COM
pend may be widely distributed, for it
must do good"
The President of the Board of Education
of the city Of New York has also written,
expressing great interest in the book, and
hopes that it may soon he introduced into
the city schools. lie says: at is calculat-
ed to do great deal of good to teachers as
we'll as scholars"
The following letter has been received
from President Elliot Of Harvard Univer-
sity:

These testimonials tell their own story,
and the writer hopes that our own schools
may not lose the benefit of Il speedy intro

vanced classes as a reader. W. IL. G.
