There is a figure of an Italian, to which is appended the following: "The Italian has got a flask of oil and a fish in his hand, and something else in his hand which the little child who reads this must find out.

Any child can tell who makes use of the sense of seeing.

In Italy they make a good deal of wine; big grapes grow there that they make it with.

Italians can sing very well, and so can little children when they are taught." Questions are likewise proposed on this, as before.
Of these lessons, however, there is a great variety.

All schools should possess them: they will effectually prevent the evil alluded to, by checking the apathy of children in learning to read, and calling the teacher's powers into full exercise.
