such as have proven of exceptional service where woodworking and
mechanical drawing are taught in a thoro, systematic manner in the
seventh and eighth grades. The aim has been to provide successful rather
than unique problems. The fifty projects in the book have been selected
and organized with the constant aim of securing the highest educational
results. The book is especially suited for use in connection with "Essentials
of Woodworking" by the same author. Price, 75 cents.

drawing, or problem in benchwork that has been successfully worked out
by boys in one of the grades from seven to nine inclusive. Price, 75
cents.
ADVANCED PROJECTS in WOODWORK. By Ira S. Griffith.
This book is similar to "Projects for Beginning Woodwork and
Mechanical Drawing," but is suited to high school needs. It consists of
fifty plates of problems and accompanying notes. It is essentially a collection
of problems in furniture making selected or designed with reference
to school use. On the plate with each working drawing is a good
perspective sketch of the completed object. In draftsmanship and refinement
of design these problems are of superior quality. It is in every
respect an excellent collection. Price, $1.00.
