BE EDUCATIONAL SCREEN I Editorial Section p L i JUNE, 1922 No. 6 Announcements ITH this number the Educational Screen has passed the half- way mark toward its first birthday. These six months have shown most gratifyingly that the place for such a magazine is eater than was realized at the start. We believed that the visual movement in American education was efficiently important to deserve a magazine all its own; a magazine writ- n produced and controlled by those qualified by educational experience , speak on educational matters; a magazine that could put the truth first id profits second, because it is independent of commercial interest and fluence. , . We believe that this sort of magazine, seeking to prove something [ther than to sell something, will afford the finest service to readers mtributors and advertisers. More and more readers, contributors and Ivertisers are believing the same thing. rHE first volume of a series of publications by the Educational Screen, Inc., pertaining to the visual field, is now ready. It is en- titled "Comparative Effectiveness of Some Visual Aids in Seventh frade Instruction." It is a thesis written by Joseph J. Weber, Associate rofessor of Education at the University of Kansas, for the doctor s degree t Columbia University. This is one of the very first important contnbu- ons to the literature of visual education. (Full notice of the book appears elsewhere in this issue.) This organization has also taken over the publishing rights to the rreene "Historical Charts of the Literatures," previously published at linceton N J. Four charts of this series (English, American, German, Tench) have appeared at intervals during the past ten years and are Rely known in every state in the union. The series will appear next all in revised and uniform edition. IN accordance with our announcements in January and May we are glad to print for the first time (see opposite page) the names of those behind this enterprise. There will be a few additions to be made to this list in he September issue, when the remaining acceptances have been received. 163
