As you likely know by now, I've a special weakness for penmanship practice notebooks of all sorts, for all different sorts of reasons, high among them being the specific words and phrases chosen for repetition, which take on added resonance for being written over and over again (and also tell us a lot about the times, including the values being stealthily drilled into children! ) This one, published in 1899, struck me first for the sentence "Burnt children dread fire," seeming quite macabre now, but surely not so much in the early days of electricity. Others seem quite of the moment: "Fight the battle for truth," "Usage is very often vague"...and then, my favorite page, near the end, which I would frame: "Wander not in your mind" repeated just once, followed by two wanders, then our girl Lila Wise's mind happily, defiantly, wandered off!
