DISCUSSION PAPER 



A discussion paper is inclosed with each Reading-Course lesson in 

 order that the best results may be obtained by the reader. Questions are 

 asked so that the more important points will be given attention. We 

 hope you will answer these questions, either from the lesson or from experi- 

 ence. You will be surprised to see how this will clarify your knowledge 

 and help you to remember what has been read. The answering of these 

 questions is optional with the reader, but it is necessary to sign and 



RETURN THE DISCUSSION PAPER IN ORDER TO RECEIVE THE NEXT LESSON. 



Each discussion paper returned will be read over carefully and will not 

 be quoted. It will require letter postage, which is the only expense con- 

 nected with the course. We regret that we cannot reply to every dis- 

 cussion paper personally, but we shall write to those persons who need 

 definite information that we can supply. 



The discussion paper has other uses. You may indicate on it any new 

 series of Reading-Course lessons that you wish to study. Whenever space 

 allows, the last page of the lesson will show the series available and the 

 lessons in each. If you wish to select the lesson that you desire to study 

 next, you may do so and advise us on the discussion paper. When the 

 lessons in any series have been studied, references for further study will 

 be supplied on request. The space below on this page is reserved 



FOR YOU TO WRITE US CONCERNING ANY OF THESE POINTS RELATING TO 

 YOUR COURSE OF STUDY.
