ates). The story of Jesus graphically
presented from the standpoint of a hero. A teacher's manual
contains full instructions for preparation of material and
presentation to the class. A partially completed story of Jesus
prepared for the introduction of illustrations, maps, and original
work, together with all materials required, is provided for the
pupil.

In the sixth grade a new point of approach to some of the heroes with
whom the children are already slightly acquainted seems desirable. The
Old Testament furnishes examples of men who were brave warriors,
magnanimous citizens, loyal patriots, great statesmen, and champions of
democratic justice. To make the discovery of these traits in ancient
characters and to interpret them in the terms of modern boyhood and
girlhood is the task of two volumes in the list. The choice between them
will be made on the basis of preference for handwork or textbook work
for the children.

_Heroes of Israel_ (Soares). Stories selected from the Old
Testament which are calculated to inspire the imagination of boys
and girls of the early adolescent period. The most complete
instructions for preparation and presentation of the lesson are
given the teacher in his manual. The pupil's book provides the full
text of each story and many questions which will lead to the
consideration of problems arising in the life of boys and girls of
this age.

_Old Testament Stories_ (Corbett). Also a series of stories
selected from the Old Testament. Complete instructions for vivid
presentation are given the teacher in his manual. The pupil's
material consists of a notebook containing a great variety of
opportunities for constructive handwork.

Paul was a great hero. Most people know him only as a theologian. His
life presents miracles of courage, struggle, loyalty, and
self-abnegation. The next book in the series is intended to help the
pupil to see such a man. The student is assisted by a wealth of local
color.

_Paul of Tarsus_ (Atkinson). The story of Paul which is partially
presented to the pupil and partially the result of his own
exploration in the Bible and in the library. Much attention is
given to story of Paul's boyhood and his adventurous travels,
inspiring courage and loyalty to a cause. The pupil's notebook is
similar in form to the one used in the study of Gates's
