The following
are a few, selected from many other excellent ones:
Schaefer (3 vols., published by Augener).
Hilliard (5 vols., published by Weekes).
Somervell (2 vols., published by Augener and Weekes respectively).
Taylor (1 vol., published by Bosworth).
As a child will need more than one such book in the course of her study,
and as she cannot play the same test twice, a plan has been made in some
schools for the music to be sold second-hand from one pupil to another,
through the medium of a mistress, in the same way in which ordinary
school books are sometimes passed on. This reduces the expense of
constantly having to buy new books for sight reading. Another plan is to
establish a lending library, each child to pay 2_d._ or 3_d._ a term.
In the teaching of 'pieces' music mistresses should bear in mind that
children must, from time to time, revise those which they have finished.
Nothing is more irritating to a parent than to be told by a child that
it has 'nothing to play' to a visitor.
