-room and introduce thought than this, _if only the teachers will use it_. Its introduction displaces nothing but the old-fashioned monotonous recitations. Let them go; we welcome this book as an important aid in hastening along the good time of better teaching. It is excellently printed, with good paper and binding."--_The New York School Journal._ Illustrated. Price by mail, 75 cents. * * * * * DEVELOPMENT LESSONS. BY PROF. E.V. DEGRAFF & MISS M.K. SMITH. IN FIVE PARTS. I. FIFTY LESSONS ON THE SENSES, SIZE, FORM, PLACE, PLANTS, AND INSECTS. These lessons are presented objectively with a view to showing how elementary work in natural science may be done. II. QUINCY SCHOOL WORK. III. LECTURES ON THE SCIENCE AND ART OF TEACHING. Specific instruction is given on how to teach Reading, Spelling, Phonics, Language, Geography, Arithmetic, etc. IV. SCHOOL GOVERNMENT. V. "THE NEW DEPARTURE IN THE SCHOOLS OF QUINCY." By CHAS. FRANCIS ADAMS. DR. A.D. MAYO says, in the _New England Journal of Education_: "Although we have given place in our book-notice column to an appreciative mention of the volume, 'Development Lessons,' a new reading seems to call for a new commendation of this admirable guide to teachers. Mr. DeGraff needs no special 'boom' as a first-class institute man, and his extracts of lectures in Part III. sparkle with valuable suggestions. In no published work is Col. Parker really seen to such advantage as in the 'reports of conversations' with him in Part II., which can be studied with profit by every teacher. But perhaps the most complete portion of this admirable book is the 178 pages of lessons on the Senses, Size, Form, Place, Plants, and Insects, by MISS M.K. SMITH, now Teacher of Methods in the State Normal School at Peru, Neb." Handsomely Bound and Illustrated. 300 pages.
