Review Methods.
Map Review.-Use a map which in
cludes Palestine, Egypt and Mesopo-
tamia. If you have none, copy n
from a teachers Bible, in rough out
line, on a large sheet of paper or a
blackboard. Provide circles of card
board marked "Ja," "Jo," and Mo"
Get the class to pin these upon the
places where Jacob, Joseph and Moses
lived or visited. For Jacob these will
be successfully Beersheba, Bethel,
Haran, Penuel, Hebron; for Joseph,
Hebron, Dothan, Tanis or Heliopolis;
for Moses Memphis or Tanis, Heliopolis,
the land of indian, Horeb, Memphis
again, the land of Goshen, Ethan, the
Red sea. The scholars will take turns
fastening on these circles, and as each
is put in place something will be told
about the event that occurred at that
locality. When the class are able to
place these circles correctly, removing
them and replacing them several
times, then take strings, a different
color for each of the three characters,
and get the scholars to stretch them
from one pin to another, to represent
the journeys taken by each.
The Three Heroes Review.-Each
scholar will be asked, a week in adj

heroes of the quarters lesson-Jacob,

teacher, of course, will see to it that
each hero is treated in about the
same number of essays.
