logical and Economic Survey at
the special request of the Superin
tendent of Public Instruction, and
this was ready for the printer the
beginning of August. For some
unaccountable reason the printini?
of this Manual has been delayed to
such an extent that it hardly seems
possible to have it properly distri
buted before Arbor Day. This is
a great misfortune, as the County
Superintendents of Public Instruc
tion throughout the State made an
almost unaniioaus demand thati
these books be distributed this year
earlier than was done last year so
that the teachers would have plenty
of time to teach tbe children their
exercises. Instead of being earlier,
the Manual will be much later, too
late to be of any use whatever in
preparing Arbor Day observances.
It will now be necessary for the
teachers who are organizing Arbor
Day exercises to use again the
Manual for 1915. If additional
copies of this are needed, they can
no doubt be secured by applying
to the County Superintendent or
to the State Superintendent of Pub
lie Instruction, Kaleigh.
