Professor Albert B. Hart

OF HARVARD UNIVERSITY

is one of the rare men in the educational world. He has achieved unusual success in modernizing the study and the teaching of American history in his new book,

NEW AMERICAN HISTORY

Dr. Hart has produced a secondary school text that may justly be called masterly.

It is notably free from provincialism.

It emphasizes the social and economic
side of our history.

It treats recent history in a way that
gives the pupil a keener understanding
of present conditions.

It inspires patriotism and establishes
ideals.

Materials for the Study of
The Great
Great War

In co-operation with the National Board for Historical Service of Washington, D. C., the publishers of THE HISTORY TEACHER'S MAGAZINE are enabled to announce a noteworthy monthly feature. A series of articles is now appearing in the MAGAZINE designed to furnish material for the use of schools, colleges, reading clubs, current events classes, and lecturers.

THE WAR SUPPLEMENTS

appear as part of the regular issues of the MAGAZINE. In January, 1918, was issued Harding's Topical Outline of the War; in this, the February issue, appears a number of extracts, translations, and photographic reproductions from a remarkable series of Belgian Documents; in March, the Supplement will provide the most complete Bibliography of the War, which has yet appeared in English, in which over four hundred books on the War will be arranged topically, and a brief expert appraisement of each will be given. In later issues War Geography and Maps will be treated, as well as other topics of value to persons studying the War.

ANSWERS TO INQUIRIES UPON THE WAR

During the War the National Board for Historical Service will conduct in the MAGAZINE a department of queries and answers on the War. A body of experts have agreed to co-operate in furnishing the most authoritative and timely answers to the queries presented. Persons not subscribers to the MAGAZINE as well as subscribers, are welcome to use this means of obtaining information.

HISTORY AND THE SCHOOLS

The MAGAZINE is publishing many articles, in addition to the War Supplements, which bear upon the War and its influence upon the schools of the country. Suggestions for revision of the course of study, practical lessons, and news items serve to keep teachers and others interested in the schools abreast of the most recent thought.

WAR REPRINTS

The monthly War Supplements are being reprinted as fast as they appear, in an inexpensive pamphlet form for use in classes, reading circles, clubs, and public meetings. The Reprints are sold at 20 or 10 cents each, with a generous reduction in these prices when a quantity is ordered.

A reduced rate of One Dollar is granted to members of the American Historical Association, and to members of other history teachers' associations.
