Sinopsis

Excerpt from A Course of Language Study in Outline

It is likely that reading in school helps a child more than any other single form of language instruction. When taught to the best advantage and used as an exercise, it quickly develops the habit of getting thoughts out of a printed page, and SO prepares one for general outside read ing. It of course imparts knowledge, and serves as a model for the communication of it.

The New Lessons in Language

presents many attractive features, chief among which are: -

(1) Familiar Talks, leading to composition work.

(2) Description of Pictures. These pictures are beautiful, interesting, and suggestive.

(3) The principal uses of capitals, punctuation marks, abbreviations, contractions, formations of plurals, possessives, etc.

(4) Letter writing, memory gems, stories for reproduction, use of irregular verbs, use of synonyms and homonyms, errors to be avoided, etc.

(5) Introduction of parts of speech and their properties, preparing for the study of grammar.

The English Grammar and Composition

presents the following points of superiority: -

(1) It is built upon the principle that theory without practice is almost valueless. It presents the minimum of text with the maximum of practice.

(2) The first ten chapters, pages 1-76, are devoted to the most practical points in a business education, namely: to Capitalization, Punctuation, Letter Writing, Choice of Words, etc. All forms of composition are fully presented.

(3) With Chapter XI the sentence is introduced. Its structure is developed by copious exercises, compelling the child to think into his very constitution grammatical forms and relations.

Every page bears evidence of both the scholarship and the schoolroom experience of the authors. The definitions are simple, brief, and comprehensive.

(4) The treatment of the verb, the participle, and the infinitive is the best published.

Finally, these are new books, but their adoption in hundreds of cities and towns argues their claim to your consideration.
