GREAT ROUND WORLD,

A great deal is expected of the teachers in our public schools at the
present day in the way of keeping the pupils conversant with the political
and scientific questions of the day. While this is as it should be, we
believe that if parents would look well to the quality of reading-matter
placed before their children better results would be obtained from the
teachers' efforts in this line. THE GREAT ROUND WORLD, AND WHAT IS
GOING ON IN IT, is the name of a newspaper for children, and without
exception it is the finest one of its kind ever published. It comes in
magazine form, and is overflowing with interesting subjects written in
such a bright and yet simple manner that the whole household unwittingly
becomes interested in it.--_Omer, Mich., Progress, Jan. 8, 1897._
