_From W. D. Lewis, Executive Committee New York State Council of Grammar
School Principals:_
"I consider THE GREAT ROUND WORLD one of the most
valuable factors in my school work. It takes the
children out of the beaten paths and gives them an
active interest in current history. Not only is it
valuable for the children, but it furnishes an
incentive to thought work so useful to many
teachers."

_From Roland L. Beale, Kansas State Normal School, Emporia:_
"I have been taking THE GREAT ROUND WORLD for six
weeks, and it is the best little paper I ever saw.
I cannot speak too highly of it."

_From Mrs. Ella F. Switzer, Denver, Col.:_
"I am a teacher in this city, and a subscriber to
THE GREAT ROUND WORLD. My pupils read it, in
consequence of which they have more definite ideas
on subjects relating to current events than many
older people. Many of the parents of my pupils
have spoken in praise of it. The other members of
my family as well as myself read it instead of
_wasting_ time over the daily papers."

_From Mr. A. F. Otis, Houghton Gram. School, Augusta, Ga.:_
"I am delighted with the paper."

_From Miss A. W. Shortridge, 257 Benefit St., Providence, R. I.:_
"Enclosed please find check for seventy-five cents
for renewal of subscription of your publication
for six months. I should like to tell you that
having had classes in current events for both old
and young people, I have never seen any other
publication which so fully carries out my ideas of
the subjects to be presented in such classes as
your little magazine does. I have had classes
every day in the week. I find moreover in your
publication a most excellent resume, especially
for the younger classes. I have moreover
recommended the magazine to many of my older
people. I am writing this because I think it may
be pleasant for you to hear that your work is
appreciated."
