Practical English Composition: Book II. / For the Second Year of the High School

A practical secondary-school composition manual that pairs concise instruction with classroom-ready exercises and models to build writing skills. It explains a system for marking and correcting themes, supplies signs for common errors, and recommends schedules and activities for oral and written composition work. Chapters present stylistic guidance—such as using contrast—alongside reporter-style examples, editing suggestions, and prompts for classroom publications. Memorization extracts and procedural directions reinforce technique, while exercises emphasize revision, concise expression, and the habit of thoughtful correction.
