Every Child who becomes the owner of this new and pleasing invention^ of 
Mr. Crandall can "play school" to his or her heart's content. 
Every "boy and girl, and man and woman too, will laugh over this group of teacher and scholars 
in the " district school," and thousands of parents will recall with great delight their own eiiperiences 
in childhood. The grave " master," seated by the desk, with his " whisking stick " ; the boys and 
girls, with books having keal words which can be used in helping the wee urchins at home to 
read ; the " little lamb " that has followed his young o^vner into the school ; the " dunce " and his 
cap, and the altogether comical appearance of the whole comj)any, make this one of the most at- 
tractive toys of Crandall's invention. The picture at the head of this sheet is only the representa- 
tion of a single group made up with this set of figures. They can be put together in any form, 
according to the notion of the one who handles them, and may be made exceedingly amusing.
