Abstract: en_US Here is more progress toward completing the set of Mrs. George Cupples' books. We now have Volumes III, V, VI, VII, and XI of the series. The pattern is the same: this booklet of 31 pages includes seven stories, each with a large illustration by Harrison Weir. The pattern here includes a fable, moral, illustration, and then a story from real life. Only the last fable, "The Dog and the Ducks," lacks a real life story. The tenor of these stories is the same reinforcement of good behavior: do not stray, obey your parents, work hard. In this volume, I am impressed by the importance of social standing for the author. Who has fine clothes, and who does not?
