“The following set of Slides have been specially prepared to meet the requirements for Pupils who take the elementary stage of the Science and Art Department's Syllabus, and Schools under the County Councils.

In nearly every case the objects have been photographed from nature.

In bringing these under the notice of Teachers we feel sure that the study will be greatly facilitated, and, at the same time, rendered very interesting during the winter months, when specimens are difficult to procure.

Teachers in Day Schools who take this subject as a branch of elementary science will be able to make a very useful selection, now that the Lantern is being used in so many Schools, as a valuable addition to the necessary School apparatus.

A few extra Slides (which are placed in their proper position and numbered a, b, etc.) have been prepared since the original preparation of this list, which tend to illustrate special points, thus bringing the total number up to 150[sic].”
