Every Teacher his own Drill Master-Gymnastics-School Management.
From the New York Teacher.
"We have looked over this book with no little interest, and doubt not that every
teacher into whose hands it may come will be much benefited by a perusal. It is
from the hand of a master, who evidently knows that whereof he affirms. The
directions for drill exercise' are full and explicit. The chapter on Gymnastics' is
particularly excellent; and the treatise on School Management' is altogether the
clearest and most commendable of any we have before met with-fertile in expedi
ents, full and spirited in detail, humanizing in character, and practical in design.
Every page is full of instruction; and the work needs only to be known to be
appreciated."
