consider the revised Second Reader
an excellent book. The Introduction to
folk lore and classic reading is good and
we'll managed. l have not used the book
enough to know which lessons the chill
dren like best. They enjoy all.

find the reader we'll adapted for use
in the second grade. The children read
easily from them-the fact that the SEN
tences are not so long but that the child
can take in the thought at one reading is,
to me, one of the good features Of the
book. As to difficulty, the books are
well graded, and the children are inter-
ested IN the subject matter. Those les
sons appealing to the imagination and
those about people and animals, written
in a conversational style. seemed to
awaken most interest.

l am delighted with it. 1t is one of
the best readers that l have seen. The
bright. interesting stories so we'll adapted
to the understanding of children in the
second grade cannot fail to make good
readers, and the reading lesson pleas
ure. There is nothing to criticise or
change. The Memory Gems learned
In childhood will never be forgotten and
will do great deal Of good.

FIRST STREET SCHOOL,
Los ANGELES, January, 1894. I
l like the book from beginning to end.
The lessons are all good, whether natural
history or simple stories The memory
gems are appropriate and the child will
derive both profit and pleasure from
them. The phonic drills are especially
well arranged. GRACE MURDOCH.
Los ANGELES, December, 1898.
The book seems to me to leave no room
for suggestions. In its general scope
and its adaptation to second year pupils L
think it is far superior to any reader that
l have ever before seen.

This is the most charming Of readers,
breathing the very spirit of sweet,
happy child-life. All the lessons are
beautiful and interesting. l especially
like the literary references, and the little
stories on science. The supplemental
stories are also delightful feature.

l can only express myself as charmed
with the book. 1t is the best, sweetest,
and most nearly perfect book for this
grade that we have ever had. All the
lessons are good. Many of them are ex-
qulslte. 1t will be of great assistance in
any language work the teacher may
give, and also in literary work. The
reader is gem, and l congratulate the
author and all who may use it.

like the Third Reader. l have read
it through carefully. The language is
are just what we want. The value Of the
lessons on Bird and Plants is not to be
estimated. They develop observation
and love of nature and the soul of the
child at the same time. l was perfectly
delighted with them and so were my
pupils. KATE L. JOHNSON.
