Watch the size of capitals and small letters. PENMANSHIP HELPED. Since my schooling in the Zanerian I have finished my college work at Drake University and now hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Education with a major in Commerce. All along the way—in both my teaching and office work— I have made use of the training I received in the Zanerian, and am very enthusiastic about penmanship instruction.

Occupational Guidance for Youtli, Part No. 1, Finding Yourself, by F. Lyman Tibbitts, University of Oklahoma, Norman, Oklahoma. Published by <strong>The</strong> Hawlow Publishing Corporation, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. (Paper cover, 29 pages. i Contents f of Part No. 1 : Introduction. Self-discovery. Occupational Life of the Community. Employment Probabilities. What Should One Know About Occupations. How to Study an Occupation Intelligently. Projects, Problems and References. A Girl Who Grows Up, by Ruth Fedder, Guidance Counselor, <strong>The</strong> Elkins Park Junior High School, Elkins Park, Pennsylvania. Published by the McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York, N. Y. Many volumes are at present available givng information to parents, teachers, or group eaders about problems of the teen-age girl. <strong>The</strong>re are few that have been written for the jiri herself. <strong>The</strong> author of this book is an ndividual who knows girls, because she has ived and worked with them. Miss Fedder ipeaks out of a very practical and tested experience with girls and a sound knowledge >f the psyrholnpy und< rlying the behaviour nanift'stations that puzzle a girl or her older "rit-nds in the process of her growing up. Some of the chapter heads are as follows: Iniwing Up. Gaining Self Confidence, Acting ['our Age. Growing Up Emotionallv. Getting )n With People. Associating Happily With ioys. Deciding About a Job. <strong>The</strong> Give and i'akf of Living, Books You May Want To business Law for Everyday Use, by A. Lincoln Lavine, A.B., LL.B., J.D., Professor of Law and Chairman of the Law Department, St. John's University, School of Commerce, Brooklyn, N. Y.; Member of the New York Bar, and Morris Mandel, M.B.A., Instructor in Business Law and Accounting, New Utrecht High School, Brooklyn, N. V. Published by <strong>The</strong> John C. Wins- ton Company, Philadelphia, Pa. Cloth cover, 612 pages. This new book is a practical text that rien tales for the high -school student a sublet of vital importance in everyday life. A )und knowledge of the fundamental princiles of business law is necessary, regardless f thf student's future course in school, busi- t'ss. tir industry. With an approach that is livr ;ind interesting, yet also pedagogically Tn-rt, BUSINESS LAW FOR EVERYDAY SP: piovides that knowledge. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Educator</strong> 29 Built on the unit plan, each of the eighty units represents a discussion and an explanation of one definite thtme woven around a legal maxim. Generous use is made of the question-and-answer method, so frequently applied in law. Lists of highlights from the unit, legal terms, queries that test student understanding, and practical, original cases which interpret and apply the principle learned follow each unit. <strong>The</strong>se exercises stimulate the student's interest in the procedure of the law and challenge him to logical and just thinking. Teachers who prefer to present their subject by the "case method" alone will note that there are comprehensive lists of supplementary cases at the end of each chapter. <strong>The</strong>se lists also provide for individual differences. Students with a flair for business law will find here in these supplementary cases ample material to satisfy their demands. However, if so desired, the cases may be omitted. yet the contents will remain adequate for all students. <strong>The</strong> clear, simple style is well within the comprehension of every high-school student. It never becomes involved or too technical as is the case of many texts having law for their subject. Beautiful murals symbolic of the law. drawings which interpret legal principles, and reproductions of legal and business forms comprise the unusual illustrations. AJl have definite earning value and all are in accord with modern principles of visual education. <strong>The</strong> Medical Stenographer, by Effie B. Smither. Published by the Gregg Publishing Company, New York, N. Y. Cloth cover, 399 pages. This book was prepared for those who wish to learn to take medical dictation with facility and speed. A specialized training for shorthand writers who already are able to write Gregg Shorthand with ordinai->' speed. It was written by an author who was formerly the stenographer of a prominent physician. and contains ( 1 ) student instructions, 1 2 medical word lists to preview the dictation. (3) medical case histories in shorthand, and (5) biographies of famous men in the field of medicine. <strong>The</strong> meaning of all medical terms is carefully brought out. Rhythmic I'ypewriting Drills, by Merla L. Reed. Published by <strong>The</strong> Gregg Publishing Company, New York, N. Y. Paper cover, 42 pages. This is a supplementary typing text that contains the procedures and exercise material for developing metronomic and flowing rhythm along with the regular typing instruction. <strong>The</strong> short lessons are accompanied by instructions to the student and an indication as to which of the Rational Rhythm Records can be used to the best advantage. Suitable for beginning or advanced students. Teach Your Fingers To Spell, by Bitha Craig and Louis A. Leslie. Published by <strong>The</strong> Gregg Publishing Company, New York, N. Y. Paper cover, 125 pages. This is a new method of teaching spellings by means of the typewriter. It is based on the fact that when the fingers of the typist are taught to spell they have a more tenacious memory than the mind. <strong>The</strong> exercises call for the student, first, to type a selected list of spelling words, and then to type a meaningful paragraph in which these words are used. While the major result is improved spelling ability, the student's typing speed and accuracy are improved as a by-product. <strong>The</strong> book is spiral-bound permitting it to stand up on the desk like an opened typing book. ) Business Education, Basic Principles and Trends, by Herbert A. Tonne. New York University, Published by <strong>The</strong> Gregg Publishing Company, New York, N. Y. Cloth cover,. 344 pages. This book has been written to present an understanding of the fundamental aspects of business education. It may be used for a onest.me.ster course by giving briefer consideration to those topics deemed less important, or may be used as the basis for a two-semester course by more extensive use of the review questions and problems presented for discussion. <strong>The</strong> first part of the book deals with the place of business education in the secondary school in terms of its objectives. <strong>The</strong> second portion of the book is devoted to a consideration of specific training for business occupations in the secondary school and other types of schools giving work in business education. Sympathetic treatment is given to the development of business education for the consumer, distributive education, general and specialized office practice, the shift upward of vocational training, and other progressive attempts at improving the work of business education. However, the difficulties in the development of these suggestions are not minimized. <strong>The</strong> criticisms of the basic program of business education now in operation are given full recognition ; but the continuing efficiency and student value of the backbone subjects of business education are made completely evident. Vw enty Shortcuts to Shorthand Speed, by Clyde Insley Blanchard, Instructor in High-Speed Shorthand, Evening Sessions, Hunter College of the City of New York; Holder of Gregg Official 175-Word Medal; General Editor, <strong>The</strong> Gregg Publishing Company. Published by the Gregg Publishing Company, New York, N. Y. Cloth cover,. 100 pages. This is an informal method book on shorthand teaching. Each of twenty fundamental shorthand teaching principles is discussed in an informal, detailed, and practical manner. <strong>The</strong> teaching procedures covered are those that occur and reoccur to the average teacher many times in a year of shorthand teaching. Beginning teachers and experienced teachers alike should find possibilities for professional improvement in this volume by an experienced shorthand teacher. I have been enjoying the <strong>Educator</strong> greatly. You are to be congratulated on the varied, interesting articles published, and also on the splendid services rendered the penmanship profession through your valuable magazine. G. C. GREENE, Registiar and Vocational Adviser Banks College, Philadelphia, Pa. PENCRAFT STUDIO On December 15, Adjutant F. O. Anderson, Hibbing, Minnesota, opened up the Pencraft Studio. He reports that he has already started out with some worthwhile orders. Adjutant Anderson is a very skillful penman as most of our readers know. <strong>The</strong>re is plenty of pen work to do if one is qualified to do it. Adjutant Anderson will be glad to exchange specimens with other penmen and engiossers.
