The text, to be Catholic, must bear
the stamp of Catholic faith; it must
be a storehouse of spiritual ideals; It
must not sin against morals nor true
pedagogy; it must set forth Catholic
principles exemplified in life"
Discussing the necessity of having
high literary standards placed before
the children in the grades, Father
Hickey continues:
much has been said and written
concerning the establishment OF hlgh
literary standards among. our college
and high school students, but 1t is
equally important to form taste FOR
good reading in our children in the
grades.
Comparatively few of our boys and
girls ever enter a secondary school.
These are the children who need,
most of all, to be trained how to use
leisure moments WE'LL The formation
of correct library taste must at least
be started in the grades if we expect
to cope successfully with the serious
problem of reading in the high school,
and college,"
In concluding his article, Father
Hickey calls attention to a text book
which is thoroughly Catholic, peda.
logically correct, and scientifically ar,
ranged. He says:
"In this connection it is appropriate
to note that recently a series of ex
cellent Catholic readers has been pre-

Readers in eight books. These text
