The Best of the Old The Best of the New

SMITH'S ARITHMETICS

By DAVID EUGENE SMITH
Professor of Mathematics in Teachers College, Columbia University

Written by an experienced teacher and filled with practical problems, these arithmetics meet adequately the most exacting requirements of the class-room. The author has aimed to fit the pupil for the actual business world in which he is to live. The problems have been selected with this end in view and deal chiefly with modern American industries.

The books follow the standard courses of study of American schools. As a result the teacher does not have to turn from one part of a book to another to arrange a usable sequence.

An Entirely New System of Drawing for Schools

THE SPECIAL MERITS 1. Directness and simplicity.

2. Vsableness by the average teacher and pupil,
3. A practical and not theoretical treatment of the subject.

of the System are AUGSBURGS DRAWING is contained in three books-Book I., Book II., and Book III.,-containing over 2,000 drawings, illustrating every phase of the work.

Book I. is a Teacher's Hand Book, showing simple and effective methods of teaching drawing in the first, second and third grades; that is, to pupils of six, seven and eight years of age.

Book II. presents a regular course in Free Hand Drawing for pupils of the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth grades. This course is intended to lay a broad and firm foundation in the art of graphic representation, after which any special branch of drawing may be followed by the pupil.

Book III. contains short yet complete courses in brush drawing, water-color work, pen drawing, chalk modeling, drawing the human head and figure, designing and mechanical drawing.

PRACTICE BOOKS. In the system there is also included a series of practice books for pupils.

Each book covers a half year's work and contains:

First, an abundance of practice papertwo pages for each day. These practice pages are perforated so that they can be removed without injury to the book.

Second, each fifth leaf is heavier and of better quality paper than the practice leaves, is not perforated, and is intended for a permanent record. On one side of each fifth leaf is the permanent work of the pupil, and on the other side the outline for the week, together with sample drawings to show how the work should be done. These practice books follow an orderly and evenly graded course throughout the school life of the pupil.

Third, these practice books also contain, for those who wish to follow such a course, full and complete directions for Two Handed Drawing; Brush Drawing and Water Colors.
