Geometry for Kindergarten Students. By Adeline Puller. (Swan Sonnenschein and

Co.)—This is a book meant for teachers, and among these, for such as have not had a regular mathematical train- ing. It deals with elementary qualities of both planes and solids, using, it should be understood, the concrete to explain the problems set to the student. Any one who has worked through the volume should be well furnished for the task of Kindergarten teaching. And there is no kind of teaching in which it is more necessary for the instructor to be well ahead of those whom he instructs.
