''Animal Life," including the domestic 

 animals, birds, reptiles, insects, etc., from 

 the standpoint of becoming - their friends 

 rather than collectors. A few books 

 upon commercial products were inserted 

 so that the teachers in the vacation 

 schools, or those having ungraded 

 classes in public schools, may correlate 

 bench-work, sewing, and other manual 

 work with Nature Study. 



A limited number of the Nature Study 

 lists have been printed and will be fur- 

 nished free to teachers and adults, upon 

 application to the Children's Museum 

 Library, Bedford Park, Brooklyn, X. Y. 



Your readers mav be interested to 



know further that the Children's Mus- 

 eum Library is in a way unique, for in 

 addition to providing necessary books ol 

 reference for the museum staff, it acts 

 as a school reference library, endeavors 

 to supply information to the general pub- 

 lic, and seeks to interest school children 

 in the various subjects included in the 

 scope of the Museum. The library con- 

 tains at the present time about 5,500 

 volumes, with 1,800 books upon Nature 

 Study, including the latest and best pop- 

 ular, weil-illustrated books.
