Hudelson English Composition Scale will appear as the Virginia Supplement to the Hillegas Scale in Part II of the Report of the Survey of the Virginia Public Schools, which is now in press. It is here printed separately and in advance, because of the repeated requests that have been made for it. It is believed that this scale represents a distinct improvement over the scales now available. Mr. Hudelson has worked out unusually helpful directions for the use of the scale in scoring compositions and also directions for the training of scorers through practice on compositions of known values. It is a pleasure to commend this scale to teachers of composition and to others who desire a usable measuring instrument in this field. M. E.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
