REPORTS, ETC. RECEIVED 
The Alabama Polytechnic Institute, 
Auburn, Ala., has published a very 
practical and helpful bulletin on school 
improvement, prepared by P. F. Wil^ 
Hams and R. S. Mackintosh, and issued 
as High School circular No. 2. It illusy 
trates a number of plans for the imt 
provement of different types of school 
grounds, and gives definite and practical 
directions for carrying out the work 
of planning, planting and beautifying the 
surroundings of school buildings. 
The annual report of the Massachu- 
setts Civic League for 1909 contains re- 
ports of the secretary, the treasurer 
and committees on legislation, bill- 
boards, newsboys, village improvement, 
housing and the campaign for play- 
ground referendum. 
PUBLISHER’S NOTES 
Good roads are becoming a burning 
question in nearly every section of the 
country, and the campaign of literature 
should be welcomed and encouraged.
