- The Board of Education has done a
good thing in introducing Mines Arith-
metic into the course of study for the
public School. Thearithmetic (White's)
which have been in use for the past few
years have not gwen satisfaction. We
learn that the same trouble exist with these
books in Chillicothe, and that they have
recently been thrown out of the course
there; and also that the Board at Will
mington has decided to substitute another
book. The character of the new arithme-
| tic, Mines, is sufficiently set forth in
the review of it which we print in another
/ column. The book was submitted to d
most careful and rigid examination, and
received the unanimous Endorsement OF
the teachers and members of the board
here. There is one feature connected
with this change of books which viii
prove most gratifying to the patrons Of
the schools. There have been two book:
of Whites series in use in the school, the
Intermediate, costing 45 cents; and thu
Complete, costing IS cents, making tota
expense of $l.20 for arithmetics to eael
pupil who passed through the course
There will now be but one book to buy
which, though containing 81 more page
than the complete arithmetic in use here
tofore, and being at the same time mucl
better made and bound book, costs a
regular retail price but so cents, just one
half of what has been paid heretofore
For the present school pupils have the ad
vantage of the exchange and introduc
ton prices which will reduce the expense
for a new book to a merely nomina
amount. The saving to the patrons of tn
school in the purchase of arithmctics dur
ing the next two years will much NOR
than cover the total expense for the neV
books during the present year. WhateVe
is true of the merits and cheapness of tn
arithmetic is true of Ridpaths' History 0
United States, which has also been intro
duced into the course of study. Messrs
Jones Bros. & Co., the publishers of thes
books, are making an effort to furnisl
school books of the highest character il
every particular, at the lowest price. Thi
is an effort in which they should be cor
daily seconded by our over-burdene'
public, and we bespeak for them the sup
port and confidence of every friend o
education.
