Your Language Series, Set 4 (4 filmstrips, color; produced by McGraw-Hill Textfilm Dept., .330 West 42 St., New York 36, N. Y.; $18.50 per set, $6..50 single strips). Words are a part of life— personal business, professional and every minute of daily living. It is sad to say that all too few really understand how important words are if we are to carry out these activities. The content of this series deals with the way in which context changes word meaning, how words grow in meaning, how words work together, and how the same word serves as several parts of speech. The treatment is factual, plain and practical. Cartoon diagrams help to lend interest to descriptions and the presentation is good for detailed study of the place of words in life today, tomorrow and everyday. As easily as using a pencil ..
