What reading level is School-Houses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These are great controlling conditions ; and yet one sees, daily and almost hourly, in the offices and rooms of persons of good ordinary intelligence, a lamp or a gas-light burning in one corner of a large apartment, which, it is confidently expected, will thoroughly ven- tilate the whole building. Or, perhaps, a little toy-wheel, at times whirling around in the Mnndow-pane, and at other times motion- less, is designed to answer tlie same purpose. The little woolly lap-dog, as he bellows out at... the express-train with all the energy and force of his little lungs, scarcely presents a more ludicrous waste and misapplication of power. One must first learn to com- prehend these great controlling natural forces ; and, whenever it is possible, work with them instead of attempting to oppose them.
It will be seen at a glance, however, that all contrivances for ven- tilation must necessarily be varied frequently, owing to the con- stantly altering conditions with which one is surrounded. An open window is very agreeable on *a warm spring morning, but quite the contrary when admitting the keen, piercing wind of a cold winter's day.
