Types representing Similar stages of civilization are presented in conjunction, without regard to chronology. It is hoped that through these stories, thus grouped, children may be interested at the proper times of their own development in the various phases of the evolution of society and in history itself, and that the interest thus awak ened may lead to a better study of history than is common in elementary schools.
