# Der Lutheraner_St. Louis Missouri_1855 04 10_S136 # AI translation — CHI Digital Archive (demonstration) 136 the preachers and teachers of the Wisconsin Conference, has prompted a local bookshop to a reprint of the first little booklet of the collection of problems by Scheidemann, introduced in the schools of Pomerania and very serviceable. The same has just now left the press. It contains on 17 pages "Problems for Ciphering in the four simple Rules of Arithmetic with unnamed Numbers." Each of the four rules is divided into several stages, and the individual problems of each stage are not only suitably arranged, but at the same time so constructed that each problem can be used at the very least in a twofold way. Thus, for example, the first stage of Addition, which comprises only 2 pages, contains no fewer than 138 examples. If this first booklet finds sale, there shall follow it still in this year, God willing, a second with unnamed numbers and later a third, containing fractions, and to the three booklets, for the hand of the teacher, a key will finally be added. As goes without saying, however, both booklets will not be a reprint but a revision of the second and third booklets of Scheidemann adapted to American coin, measure, and weight relations, etc. The local teachers of our congregations have already made a beginning with the revision of the second booklet, and its appearance will in due time likewise be announced in the Lutheraner. The first booklet is sold singly at 6 cents; whoever takes 100 copies at once receives them at 4 dollars, so that, with the postage added, each booklet comes to only about 6 cents. Orders should be made postpaid and with good bank notes enclosed to Mr. bookseller Christian Ott, Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
