SELECTED LIST OF BOOKS ON EDUCATIONAL IM- PROVEMENT AND SOCIAL REFORM, WITH COMMENTS For Loan by the University of Texas Department of Extension. To help further the educational and social interests of our State, the Extension Department of the University of Texas has perfected a plan for the loan from the University library of books for the use of members of mothers' clubs, parent- teacher associations, school and home clubs, and other similar organizations. One of these books will be sent upon applica- tion to the Director of the Department of Extension free of all charge other than mail or express charges to and from the University. These books are loaned for a period of two weeks, but usuall}^ arrangements can be made for a longer period when it is necessary. The list contains one hundred and thirty titles on Boys' Clubs, Child Study and Methods of Training Children, Citizen- ship and the Schools, Home Economics and Dietetics, Hygiene and Care of Infants, Industrial Education, Juvenile Crime, Moral Education, Nature Study, Plays and Games, Psychology and Pedago^fy, and the Public Schools. No attempt is made to offer an exhaustive list or to select all the best books on each topic, but to call attention to those which will open up the subject and stimulate further study either in the home or in the club. Every book in the list can be read with profit by any intelligent parent or club worker without special technical training, and deserves a place in the home library. When pos- sible, books which include extensive bibliographies have been selected in order that the reader may easily find further infor- mation on the subject studied. As clubs or individuals will often wish to buy some of these books, the prices and names of publishers, have been given. The compiler. Prof. Bird T. Baldwin, of the Department of Education of the University, will be glad to assist any readers who wish further suggestions concerning other books in these particular fields.
