PICTURES AS AN AID TO 
TEACHING 
I He fact that pictures are a most valuable aid 
to any course of instruction has long been recog¬ 
nised in educational circles, so that it need not 
be emphasised here. 
It may not, however, be so well known that 
whether your lecture deals with customs, architec¬ 
ture, or costumes in other countries... or whatever 
may be its subject... we have illustrations which 
will undoubtedly enliven it — and these can be 
sent to you immediately upon request. 
Primarily our pictures are designed for the de¬ 
coration of class-rooms. They represent beautiful 
works of art, and do much to form the artistic 
taste of young students. 
the use of a lantern has obvious disadvantages 
the collection of slides may not be extensive 
enough, the taking of notes is rendered difficult 
in a darkened room, and the fugacity of the pro¬ 
jection prevents familiarisation with the subjects. 
Our collection may be distributed by the lecturer 
to his pupils personally, with appropriate com¬ 
ments. The pictures may then be placed in the 
text books, and will serve as reminders of these 
comments when the pupil is studying alone.
