A Paved Road" Through the Jungles Of
Hard School Studies Given Children In
the Educational Series Found in The Bee

During next week The Bee will begin
running its great series of Educational
Articles for Boys and Girls, the INSTALL
ments to continue every day through the
length of the school term.
The boy and girl who wishes to get
ahead in studies with the least effort,
cannot overestimate the value of these
articles.
It is an exploded idea that the one who
has to do the hardest work in looking up
his studies is the one who retains the
longest what has been learned. The time
spent in searching through half dozen
books or more to find reference is time
wasted that could be spent in learning
something else, if the reference had been
right at hand.
Found at Glance.
This is what these educational articles
provide. They are to the student in the
subjects of his studies what the diction-
ary is to him in his pursuit of the right
word to express his thought. It gives
him at glance, or moments search ex-
actly what he must look up.
The value of ready reference of this
Kind is double-fold to parents. In the first
place they have assurance that no lack of
proper reference book will deprive
their child Of the advantages that may be
enjoyed by another, and second, and
lesser but none the less agreeable, fea-
ture Is that it in measure puts an end
to the numberless questions asked by
children, concerning studies which the
parents Of their day, did not find in the
curriculum, and with which they are not
familiar.
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1919-10-18
Subjects for Week

Subjects for Week
The articles will be run under q gen.
eral subject for each week. each days
installment referring to some form or
branch of the study for that day.
Each Monday the article will treat Of
How to study skillfully" and mature
study"
Tuesdays will deal with things for
boys to make, and things for girls to
make.
Wednesday will tell Of some adventure
that made some American great, and o
woodcraft.
Thursdays will take up sports for boys,
and things for the all-around American
girl. =.
Fridays will teach Of ways to earn
money outside of school, and of everyday
science and home mechanics, and Satur-
days will discuss what future lies before
boys, and what girls can become.
Leading Educators
The twelve articles have been care
fully prepared by leading educators in
the country in the subjects handled, and
will be published only in The Bee. They
are interesting reading Of the highest and
most instructive class, and afford the boy
and girl of today another wonderful op-
portunity such as was never enjoyed by
their parents. It is those who embrace
opportunities who forge ahead of their
fellows. Don't let the boy or girl next
door get ahead Of you for lack of this

school studies. Order The Bee today.
