Excerpt from Fifth Reader The fifth reader completes the Golden Treasury Series. In the preparation of the book the same broad principles that underlie the other books of the series have guided in the selection and adaptation of material. The End Sought. The primary purpose of the reader is mental and spiritual development; the secondary pur pose, information along such lines as broaden the child's view of the world of which he is a part. The first aim, therefore, is to strengthen the foundations for true and strong womanhood and manhood, to arouse and develop sympathetic emotions, and to inspire ideals of social usefulness. The Subject Matter. The material of this book differs widely from that of any other reader published, because of the nature of its aim. Whereas the element of romance, which is strong in its appeal to the young, is given a prominent place here, it is often concerned with the sim ple things of life. The heroes of the farms and the work shops are given their deserved place among the heroes of battle. The patriotic selections of the book have been chosen with a view to broadening the child's appreciationof true greatness and nobility of character. The noble men of the South take rank with those of the North and those of other nations of the world, with those of America.
