 
PRINCIPAL TRANSPORTATION LINES AND REGIONS OF LARGEST COMMERCE PRINCIPAL TRANSPORTATION LINES AND REGIONS OF LARGEST COMMERCE To the Teacher:—The contents of this book are so topicalized and arranged that, if the time for the study is limited, a short course may be selected. Under no circumstances, however, should Chapters V, VI, VIII, IX, XII, and XIII be omitted. A casual inspection of the questions at the end of each chapter will serve to show that they cannot be answered from the pages of the book, and they have been selected with this idea in view. They are intended first of all to stimulate individual thought, and secondly to encourage the pupil to investigate the topics by consulting original sources. The practice of corresponding with pupils in other parts of the world cannot be too highly commended. The following list represents a minimum rather than a maximum reference library. It may be enlarged at the judgment of the teacher. A good atlas and a cyclopÆdia are also necessary. Industrial Evolution of the United States. Wright. Charles Scribner's Sons.
