∵ As allusion has been made to the Parents’ National Educational Union and its various agencies, especially of the Parents’ Review School, it may be well to add that information about these may be had from the Secretary. The “Questions for the Use of Readers” are inserted with a view to the P.N.E.U. Reading Course. Persons who wish to become “Qualified Members” of the Union by undertaking this course should communicate with the Secretary, 26 Victoria Street, London, S.W.
