    IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT Messrs. THOMAS NELSON & SONS Beg to announce the publication of a series of HANDBOOKS OF MORAL INSTRUCTION prepared in accordance with the Syllabus of the Moral Instruction League. Few Educational conceptions of the first rank have made, in recent times, such rapid advance in the public estimation as that of the formation of character being the chief aim of school life. The Moral Instruction League, which has been the prime mover in the matter, has issued a syllabus of Moral Instruction for Elementary Schools, carefully graded according to the different standards. This syllabus has been largely adopted by those Education Authorities who have made such instruction part of their curriculum. A great need has been felt for helpful manuals which will supply teachers with material for the preparation of lessons, and which in the lower classes can also be used as reading books by the children. Messrs. Thomas Nei.son and Sons beg to announce a complete series of such handbooks. Two of the volumes are reprints of works which have already proved their usefulness. The remaining volumes have been specially prepared for the series. Each volume corresponds to that section of the syllabus of the Moral Instruction League designed for the standard or standards mentioned. The following are Now Ready THE GARDEN OF CHILDHOOD By Alice Chesterton. Price Is. 6d. Suitable for Young Children and Teachers of Infants. THE MAGIC GARDEN By Alice Chesterton. Price Is. 6d. Suitable for Standard III. Pupils and their Teachers. A TEACHERS HANDBOOK OF MORAL LESSONS By A. J. Waldegrave. Price Is. 6d. Suitable for Standard V. Pupils and their Teachers. These will he followed at an early date by A Volume by Miss Chesterton For Junior Pupils (Standards I. and II.) and the Teachers of such Classes. A Volume by W. Robson and W. H. Baldwin For Standard IV. A Volume by J. H. Wicksteed For Standard VI. A Volume by A. J. Waldegrave This volume will contain a special course on Citizenship. For Standard VII. and the Lower Forms of Secondary Schools. *** A Special Volume has also been prepared, dealing with the matter of the Complete Syllabus, Standards I. to VII., treated on the Concentric Method, by James Reid, M.A., which will be of special usefulness in schools where two or more classes are grouped for such lessons, and which will aid all teachers in maintaining unity and continuity of instruction from year to year.
