OUTLINE FOR HODGE'S NATURE STUDY AND LIFE 



Paper, 32 pages, 10 cents 



IN the point of view, in the selection of the subject matter, and 

 in the presentation of methods of conducting the work, " Nature 

 Study and Life " marks a definite advance over earlier publications 

 on the subject of nature study. It is an earnest effort to give funda- 

 mental and universal interests in nature their deserved place in our 

 system of public education. It presents concrete lessons on the ani- 

 mals and plants that form the natural environment of the home. 

 Each form is studied alive and at work, as a life story to be read at 

 first hand in nature. 



GARDENS AND THEIR MEANING 



By DORA WILLIAMS, Boston Normal School 

 8vo, cloth, ix + 235 pages, $1.00 



THIS little manual of school gardening for teachers not only offers 

 detailed directions for the scientific management of gardens, but dis- 

 cusses also their cultural significance. Loyalty, cooperation, and 

 efficiency are some of the lessons stressed. Miss Williams's point of 

 view is so fresh and earnest that it cannot fail to be illuminating 

 and inspiring.
