CHAMBERS'S GOVERNMENT HAND COPY BOOKS.

Approved by Department of Public Instruction.

The Letters are continuously joined to each other, so that the pupil need not lift the pen from the beginning to the end of each word. The s.p.a.ces between the letters are wide, each letter thus standing out boldly and distinctly by itself. The Slope is gentle, but sufficient to prevent the pupil from acquiring a back hand. The Curves are well rounded, checking the tendency to too great angularity. The Writing is not cramped and confined, plenty of s.p.a.ce being allowed for each word.

The Words are s.p.a.ced by perpendicular lines, and the lengths of the letters are indicated by horizontal lines in the early numbers of the series. These books are now printed in N.S.W. on paper which has been specially manufactured for the series, and is of unusually good quality. Price, 2d. each.

No. 1, Large Hand, Elements, Letters, and Short Words; 2, Half-Text, Short Words without Capitals; 3, Half-Text, Sentences with Capitals, Figures; 4, Half-Text, Proper Names with Capitals; 5, Half-Text, Sentences with Capitals, Figures; 6, Small Round--Double Ruling, Figures; 7, Small, Double Ruling with Intermediate Lines; 8, Small, Double Ruling without Intermediate Lines; 9, Small, Single Ruling--Historical; 10, Small, Single Ruling--Geographical; 11, Small, with Partial Ruling--Poetical; 12, Small, Commercial--Business Forms, &c.; 13, For Pupil Teachers.
