A SYSTEM OF PEDAGOGY
By EMERSON E. WHITE, A.M., LL.D.
Elements of Pedagogy $1.00 School Management and Moral Training 1.00 Art of Teaching 1.00
By the safe path of experience and in the light of modern psychology the ELEMENTS OF PEDAGOGY points out the limitations of the ordinary systems of school education and shows how their methods may be harmonized and cooerdinated. The fundamental principles of teaching are expounded in a manner which is both logical and convincing, and such a variety and wealth of pedagogical principles are presented as are seldom to be found in a single text-book.
¶ SCHOOL MANAGEMENT discusses school government and moral training from the standpoint of experience, observation, and study. Avoiding dogmatism, the author carefully states the grounds of his views and suggestions, and freely uses the fundamental facts of mental and moral science. So practical are the applications of principles, and so apt are the concrete illustrations that the book can not fail to be of interest and profit to all teachers, whether experienced or inexperienced.
¶ In the ART OF TEACHING the fundamental principles are presented in a clear and helpful manner, and afterwards applied in methods of teaching that are generic and comprehensive. Great pains has been taken to show the true functions of special methods and to point out their limitations, with a view to prevent teachers from accepting them as general methods and making them hobbies. The book throws a clear light, not only on fundamental methods and processes, but also on oral illustrations, book study, class instruction and management, written examinations and promotions of pupils, and other problems of great importance.

STANDARDS IN EDUCATION
Including Industrial Training
By ARTHUR HENRY CHAMBERLAIN, B.S., A.M., Dean and Professor of Education, Throop Polytechnic Institute. $1.00
The present widespread agitation for a more purposeful curriculum is fully recognized by this work on practical pedagogy. It discusses modern elementary education in a helpful manner, setting forth its acknowledged defects of standard, and presenting suggestions for the introduction of more industrial training. The book is broad in the best sense, and every problem affecting the school and its relation to the outside world is dealt with so simply and convincingly as to be clear to everybody, whether teachers or parents. Only the great issues of education are considered.
EDUCATION THROUGH MUSIC
By CHARLES HUBERT FARNSWORTH, Adjunct Professor of Music, Teachers College, Columbia University. $1.00
A book for grade teachers which enables them to teach music in their schools with the same ease and success as the ordinary branches of study. Yet it is no less valuable for the music supervisor, the principal, and the superintendent, and it is an excellent text for all schools in which special teachers of music are trained. It is at once a rule, a guide, and an inspiration, and points out the place of music in the general educational scheme. It lays out the work step by step for each year of the elementary school, and never leaves the teacher in doubt on any point. The methods of presentation are applicable to any music course.
