BOOKS for BOYS

 The "Problems Series" of Working Drawings, Good for Either Home or School Use

PROJECTS for BEGINNING WOODWORK and MECHANICAL DRAWING. By Ira S. Griffith.


A work book for the use of students in grammar grade classes. It consists of working drawings and working directions. The projects are such as have proven of exceptional service where woodworking and mechanical drawing are taught in a thoro, systematic manner in the seventh and eighth grades. The aim has been to provide successful rather than unique problems. The fifty projects in the book have been selected and organized with the constant aim of securing the highest educational results. The book is especially suited for use in connection with "Essentials of Woodworking" by the same author. Price, 75 cents.


PROBLEMS in WOODWORKING. By M. W. Murray.


A convenient collection of good problems consisting of forty plates bound in board covers with brass fasteners. Each plate is a working drawing, or problem in benchwork that has been successfully worked out by boys in one of the grades from seven to nine inclusive. Price, 75 cents.


ADVANCED PROJECTS in WOODWORK. By Ira S. Griffith.


This book is similar to "Projects for Beginning Woodwork and Mechanical Drawing," but is suited to high school needs. It consists of fifty plates of problems and accompanying notes. It is essentially a collection of problems in furniture making selected or designed with reference to school use. On the plate with each working drawing is a good perspective sketch of the completed object. In draftsmanship and refinement of design these problems are of superior quality. It is in every respect an excellent collection. Price, $1.00.
