Excerpt from The Sentential Reader That is the question, said Professor Cadmus. It is not the definition so much as the attainment. Need I say, that reading is not to be acquired by rules? It is useless to make them the basis of instruction in reading. Seeing is the knowing of childhood. The thing must take precedence of the word. I entirely agree with you, said Dr. Wisdom. Nor can it be taught by examples. As well might Miss S attempt to teach my daughter the art of music by playing over some of her phantasies, as a teacher attempt to teach children reading by presenting models of the art.

Excerpt from The Life Sentence The man sat at the far end reading a paper, and half concealed behind it; the girl leant forward in her seat, looking through the window, and the sun fell on the pastel blue of her dress and seemed to linger in her cloud of bright hair, under the velvet hat, as if it found her the prettiest thing to rest upon and wished to caress her. And she was so pretty, this girl, although her nose was not the clas sic shape, nor any of her features perfect. The burnished mass of her hair against the silky whiteness of her skin, the blue eyes like great clear pools, with their dark lashes, under their soft brown brows, and the colour of the mouth like a damask rose, these were the birthday gifts of Nature to her at the commence ment of her sixteenth year.

Excerpt from Fourth Reader This fourth reader is designed to meet the children on their own level and to lead them by easy stages to a higher plane. They are now at an age when their ability to understand and appreciate is far in advance of their reading ability. They enjoy great stories and appreciate fine sentiment if the language does not Offer too many difficulties. In the preparation of this Reader, therefore, special attention has been given to keeping the vocabulary within range of the pupil's ability. The earlier part of the book contains selections that are simple in vocabulary and sentence structure, and the later lessons provide for a steady growth, without introducing tedious difficulties. Ideas and ideals, however, are more important than forms and vocabularies. Already the children have begun to enjoy some of the masterpieces of literature. It frequently happens that they can appreciate part of a long story before they can read it in the complete form. It is also true that the reading of a simplified version of a classic is often the best introduction to the reading of the classic itself. In the selections that are here abridged from longer works, the spirit and the language of the author have been preserved. Moreover, these selections are always com plete units and are of sufficient length to aid in establishing habits of sustained attention and interest.

These illustrations give pictures of the people, costumes, and homes of other lands, and are of geographic or historic interest.

Excerpt from Greek Prose Composition Part I contains, in graded lessons, the principal points of Greek syntax, the unusual and non-essential being purposely omitted. These lessons are designed for use at the beginning of the second year's study of Greek, thereby serving as a partial review of the first year's work and as an introduction to the composition work in connection with the reading of Xenophon's Anabasis. Part II contains short, simple English sentences, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. These should be used daily in connection with the reading of the text. Part III contains connected English prose, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. This is carefully graded, so that the stu dent who performs faithfully the work outlined here will be able to pass the entrance examination of any of the American colleges. The method of writing Greek at sight used in this book needs a word of explanation. It is the outgrowth of the author's personal experience in the classroom, and his belief that the best results can be obtained only by systematic practice in connection with the regular work.
