NOTICE.

The Committee on Publication take pleasure in saying that the last sheets of this volume were sent to the binder by the middle of November, a month earlier than the sheets of the volume for 1876 were sent. When the printing began but few papers had been received, and some of these had been returned, at the request of the writers, for revision. The absence of the papers caused some delay and the marring of the symmetry of the volume by the printing of the delayed papers out of their proper place. The insertion of these papers out of order was done rather than not do all that was possible to comply with the request of the Board of Directors, expressed in a formal resolution, to have the volume ready by December 1st. To make the records of the Association complete the Proceedings of the Department of School Superintendence at the special meeting held in Washington, March 1, 2, 3, are published with those of the regular meeting.

This volume will be found to be one of the largest and most interesting of those yet issued by the Association. The price has been fixed as follows:

Single volume sent by mail postpaid

$2.00

$1.25

Lots of 5 or more sent at expense of purchaser, each volume
Only 1000 copies have been printed. Volumes may be ordered either
from the Secretary, W. D. HENKLE, Salem, Ohio, or from the Treasurer,
