FRIENDS SCHOOL FOR BOTH SEXES CHEVY CHASE Mount Pleasant Military Academy French and English Boarding and Day School for Dear Sirs-Having expressed my personal opinion as to the merits of the Plymouth Hymnal before its adoption by my church, it gives me pleasure now to inform you of the success of the Hymnal in actual use. I have heard but one opinion among the people, and that a hearty indorsement of the book in every particular. The marked improvement in the congregational singing since the arrival of the three hundred and twenty-five copies of the Plymouth Hymnal, and the hearty way the people now take part in the public praise, are, however, the best assurance to me of the success of the book. We are just now holding a series of summer praise services for Sunday evenings, in which the singing of hymns from the new book is given the prominent place, the effort being to get at the riches of the collection both as to old and new. The congregation is led by a large chorus choir, and we sing three or four hymns in succession with fine effect. The services are very popular. Our choir is particularly emphatic in their praise of the Hymnal. As to the typography and binding, a lady expressed the general verdict when she said, "It is a means of grace to hold such a hymn-book in the hand." Sincerely yours, CORNELIUS H. PATΤΟΝ, A free (returnable) copy will be sent to any pastor or choirmaster for examination with a view to introduction THE OUTLOOK COMPANY, Publishers, 13 Astor Place, New York A companion volume to the popular "Century Book for Young Americans," issued two years ago, by the same author. In that work "The Story of the Government" was told in the form of a record of the adventures of a party of bright young folks in the city of Washington with a well-informed uncle. The present volume takes the same party of young folks on a trip to the historic homes of America, Quincy, Marshfield, Monticello, Springfield, Ill., New York, Boston, Richmond, etc., and describes the early days and surroundings of Washington, Lincoln, Grant, Jefferson, Franklin, Webster, Clay, the Adamses, and other famous men. It will contain about 250 pages, and nearly as many illustrations, and will cost $1.50. It is not only a great book for the home, but will take its place at once as a supplementary reader in hundreds of schools. Published by THE CENTURY co., UNION SQUARE, NEW YORK |
