JOURNAL OFPEDAGOGY 



ESTABLISHED IN 1887 



An Educational Magazine of interest to all serious students of education. 

 Some of the ablest contributions now being made to educational 

 literature are appearing in the Journal of Pedagogy. 



A REPRESENTATIVE OPINION 



" Id building up the occupation ot teaching till it becomes a true profession, 

 no magazine is rendering more significant and vital service than the Journal 

 OF Pedagogy, which admirably displays the interest of the editor in the science 

 and art of education. Its articles have always been noteworthy for their 

 strength and freshness ; its book reviews have been conspicuously valuable, 

 exceeding in number those of the several other leading magazines combined. 

 No field of educational effort has been neglected ; and there has been a reason- 

 able apportionment of space alike to the university, the high school, the 

 elementary school, and the kindergarten. Those who are earnest for the better- 

 ment of American education view with the greatest seriousness the endeavor 

 of such a magazine as the Journal of Pedagogy to represent the best thought 

 and practice of the times, and by representing that thought and practice to 

 encourage their influence. To publish such a periodical is a noble enterprise 

 lor the welfare of American schools and of the American nation." — Dr. W. E. 

 Chancellor, Superintendent of Schools, Paterson, N. J.
