n1cnNoNp,s PUBLISHERS.

In making up the list of books for
the schools of Virginia the Board OF
Education adopted a large number of
Virginia publications. This is a
gratifying and encouraging indication
of the growing strength of Rich
mond as a publishing centre. for the
Board of Education would assuredly
not have chosen any publication on
sentimental ground.
One of the great publishing houses OF
Richmond has its books in use not only
in the Southern States, but inSthe great
State of New York rs well. And the
high commentator accorded this COM
pany by the adoptlons of the State
Board of Education indicates in a most
conclusive way the capacity of Nir-
ginia to both write and publish books
in competition with the whole world
1t also gives striking illustration
of the diversification of Richmonds
interests. a city that manufactures
engines and electrical motors. flour
and freczers, books and bottles, black
boards and washtubs, cigars, cigar
cites, smoking and chewing tobaccos
