In all cases they will send plainly and distinctly." If the despatcher had sent according to my ability just then he would have sent that order by train mail.
It makes geography a live subject. Suggest that your pupils organize a Travel Club, and that some of the trips be personally conducted. Maps and a globe should be in constant use. The home should be the starting point. Railroad circulars, maps, and time-cards for free distribution will be found valuable. Pupils should be taught how to use these maps and time cards.
"This chilly railway station wasn't meant for such giddy language." Wasn't it? Mr. Magee looked around at the dingy walls, at the soiled time-cards, at the disreputable stove. No place for romance?
