BALDWIN SETTING OUT TO SEIZE EDESSA (1097)
Edessa was a very ancient city of Mesopotamia. It belonged to the Mohammedans, except in the eleventh century, when it was held
by the Byzantine Empire. The Crusaders, under Baldwin, gained possession of the city in 1097 and it was held by them until 1144.

is published month y except for July and August. The subscription price is $2.00 per year postpaid. Canadian subscriptions require 25 cents extra for postage and foreign postage is 30 cents extra. Single copies are 25 cents each, postpaid anywhere.

REMITTANCES

Checks, drafts and money orders should be made payable to the order of the Primary Education Company. As an acknowledgment of your remittance the date on the label of the first or second paper you receive after you remit will be changed.

CHANGE OF ADDRESS

When sending new address, always be sure to give the old address to which the paper has been sent. This is important, as subscription lists are classified by cities and towns, and your name alone is not sufficient data to enable us to discontinue the copy going to your old address.

SAMPLE COPIES

The Pulp and Paper Section of the War Industries Board in the interest of conservation of paper has asked publishers to eliminate the giving of free sample copies. Prospective subscribers, therefore, must remit twenty-five cents for each copy. A current number will be sent as a sample.

PRIMARY EDUCATION LATE?

We aim to have PRIMARY EDUCATION printed and placed in the mails between
the fifteenth and twenty-fifth of the month PRECEDING publication, but the
transportation of the country is still so overburdened, that postal deliveries
are seriously delayed, even on first class matter. We can only ask our
subscribers to be patient. Wait at least until the 2nd or 3rd of the month
of publication before writing about non-receipt of your magazine.

Read the suggestions in the column to the left, and
if your subscription is due please remit promptly,

DAILY LESSON PLANS IN
ENGLISH

244 pages. Price, 50 cents.

These Lesson Plans consist of weekly outlines arranged by months from September to June - for the first four years of school. They assemble an unusual number of appropriate verses and little stories, all chosen with reference to their literary merit as well as to their genuine interest for children.

The teacher who follows these lessons closely, week by week, will find not only her English lessons arranged for her, but also plans for dramatizing the material used. Correlated with the English Lessons are Reading, Nature Study and Games.

The book is especially adapted to the use of rural teachers, but no progressive teacher of first to fourth year children should be without a copy.

LESSON PLANS IN ARITHMETIC 256 pages. Price, 50 cents

A needed book. It is a guide in number work and arithmetic, and supplies much drill on the tables, the lack of which leaves children inaccurate and inefficient in arithmetic. Teachers wish for new devices on short notice. This book on your desk will be a constant source of recreation and inspiration.

LANGUAGE GAMES

Price, 50 cents.

Miss Myra King's little book of Language Games seems to me to be an admirable means to the end of forming correct habits of speech. The words of a game which one has played repeatedly in his youth are not apt to slip away from him. Just so the habitual mistakes are by means of these games repeated and repeated in correct form so successfully in the heat and enthusiasm of the game that the correct form will keep coming up as long as one lives. I know of no better way to impress these necessary lessons than this. E. C. MOORE,

Superintendent of Schools, Los Angeles, Cal.

TALES OUT OF SCHOOL

Illustrated. 128 pages. Price, 40 cents,

It should be the work of both the school and the home to encourage and protect the child's natural hopefulness in every possible way.

One of the strongest aids in accomplishing this purpose is a generous use of carefully selected stories which, while of absorbing interest to the child, shall present to his eager, receptive and easily-molded thought, ethical lessons of lasting benefit.

It is with the hope that they will prove helpful to children and to those entrusted with their education and progress that these stories are published.
