LEADING FEATUEES. 



1. Wriliog made the expression 

 of thought. Word-building and 

 sentence-building constituting inter- 

 esting language-lessons. 



2. Writing taught synthetically. 

 No tedious drills on parts of letters 

 or isolated letters. 



3. The movement drill ; whereby 

 pupils acquire with certainty the 

 real writing movement. 



4. No exaggerated style of writ- 



ing, which leads a pupil to draw, 

 rather than to write. 



5. Graded columns; whereby 

 the scope of movement enables the 

 pupil to gradually and naturally ac- 

 quire the fore-arm movement. 



6. Better gradation than is found 

 in any other series. 



7. They are in accordance with 

 the modern methods of teaching. 



This system, thus dealing with whole letters, words, and sentences, 

 rapidly advances the pupil by steps that are natural, progressive, graded, 

 clear, and attractive.
