Abstract
THIS wall map is constructed on a conical projection on a scale of 1: 3,200,000, or 50.5 miles to an inch. It is provided with an inset map of the Philippines on a scale of 1: 7,500,000. The coast-line, rivers and lakes are in blue; the railways and sea-routes, with distances, are in red; and town names are printed in black. The general effect is excellent, and the map should meet the needs of the class-room satisfactorily.
