IF ANYBODY WANTS TO KNOW Patri's LET HIM READ "A Schoolmaster of the John Dewey says: "Angelo Patri has produced in his 'Schoolmaster of the Great City' an almost unheard of thing, a book on education that is not only sound in principle, but charming in style. If anybody wants to know what is vital and moving in modern education, and wants the knowledge communicated in a form free from pedagogical phraseology, in human terms, let him read Mr. Patri's book. No parent or citizen can read the book without increased vision and illumination. The teacher who can read it without a gain in enthusiams oughtn't to be teaching." Is there any superintendent or teacher who can afford to be without this book? For individual study and as a basal book for reading circles it has no superior.

RUPERT BLUE, Surgeon-General Treasury Department, Bureau of the Public Health Service, Washington. "It seems to me that Diet for Children, by Mrs. John L.

HARYOT HOLT DEY, President Woman's Press Club of New York City, Chairman Committee on Industrial and Social Conditions, New York City. "Mrs. Hogan, in Diet for Children, has made her collection of practical directions for the young mother with her characteristic discretion. The recipes are many of them so dainty and so delicate that as a practical cook book of desserts it is simply splendid especially for the rapidly growing class of people who are cultivating a respect for their digestive organs and seeking rules in accord with simple living."

A BOOK FOR THE PEOPLE "The Religion of a Modern Protestant" By CHARLES E. HERRING, Ph. D. A fair statement of the position of "evangelical" Christianity-a PRACTICAL NECESSITY for thousands of people who are Protestants thru accident rather than thru conviction, EVERYBODY interested in the religious movements of the day should possess a copy of Dr. Herring's book. It is kindly in spirit, yet fearless in criticism and positive in statement, showing points of divergence from Romanism, Christian Science, Russelism, etc. Price 60c net This volume is written with a sincere motive. The author has a firm grasp on the essentials of Christian faith. Where his doctrinal statements come in conflict with those of others, he exercises a fair and discriminating spirit in stating the latter.-Christian Advocate. While the word "religion" in the title might better have been replaced by the word faith, or creed, this little book is worthy of much commendation as setting forth simply, clearly and forcefully the essential teachings of the Christian religion as they are held and taught by modern Protestants. It pursues a "middle-of-the-road" course between what are described as the radical ard the ultra-conservative views held in the Protestant world and it avoids the use of theological terms, though it very helpfully explairs the essential meaning of some of those familiar terms. The average Christian will find this in every sense a very useful and helpful volume.-Presbyterian Advance, Nashville, Tenn. One of the most valuable books which have come to our desk in proportion to its size.-California Christian Advocate. FOR SALE BY EDUCATIONAL MAGAZINE PUBLISHING CO. 31-33 E. 27th Street, New York |
