Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boy Scouts Book of Stories: Edited With Introduction and Notes So much of my time is given to reading boys' books that, when I read books for grown-ups, now and again I find myself saying, What-a bully story for boys to read! Latterly, I have been putting down the titles of 'such stories. When the list began to lengthen, it occurred to me, why not make a book for boys contain ing stories like that: stories written for grown-ups but also of interest to boys in their early teens. Such a collection of stories could not be made, how ever, without the consent of the authors and publishers, but since everybody loves a boy, I didn't have much trouble in convincing them they ought to grant per mission to use their stories for such a purpose and, as a result, I am pleased to present to the boy readers of our country the Bov scouts book OF stories.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boy Scouts Book of Stories Something over a year ago the Electric Railway Journal be gan the publication of its monthly Mechanical and Engineering Numbers. The purpose of these has been to furnish articles of a character particularly helpful to the men who are responsible for the upkeep of the physical equipment of an electric railway property. Overhead line construction, tracks, buildings, power plants, substations, shops and rolling stock and its equipment have all been kept in mind. Arrangements were made with several specialists in different parts of the electric railway field for series of articles covering the fundamentals of track, power transmission, car equipment, car bodies and power plant operation; these were in addition to numerous articles on details of practice in the several lines men tioned. While all of the series are not yet complete, they have proved to date so valuable and comprehensive that the publishers of the paper have decided to reprint a number of the articles in the several series, particularly for the benefit of those who have not had the opportunity to read them month by month. Space limitations have prevented the reprinting of the entire groups of articles but a careful selection has been made of those which seem to have greatest immediate practical value. Readers of this volume are referred to the original series in each of the fields if further details are desired. The authors of the articles reprinted are all qualified by practical experience and theoretical study to furnish the kind of material desired by the workers in the practical depart ments of the electric railways. For want of a better word the term practical is used to designate those who have to do with physical equipment. Mr. Cram is in daily contact with the way and structure problems of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit System and had a wide experience before joining the stafl of the B. R. T.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boy Scouts: On Lost Trail Those who have read The Boy Scouts of Woodcraft Camp, the first book in this series, will need no introduction to most of the char actera of the present volume. Four of them are members of Dr. Merriam's famous vaca tion school in the deep woods, a camp con ducted under Boy Scout law, but with tribes instead of patrols, each tribe having as chief a Scout of the first class. Three of them were principal characters in the second volume, The Boy Scouts on Swift River. On that trip they made practical use of the things they had learned at Woodcraft Camp, and their experiences further fitted them for the severer tests, such as are necessarily entailed by an overland trip through the wilderness, such a trip as in this volume they take in their search for Lost Trail.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boy Scouts of Woodcraft Camp In this and succeeding volumes, The Boy Scouts on Swift River, The Boy Scouts on Lost Trail, The Boy Scouts in a Trapper's Camp, I have sought to portray the life of such a school camp under Boy Scout rules. The Boy Scouts of Woodcraft Camp has been written with a twofold purpose: To stimulate on the part of every one of my boy readers a desire to master for himself the mysteries of nature's great out-of-doors, the secrets of field and wood and stream, and to show by example what the Boy Scout's oath means in the development of character. Many of the incidents in the succeeding pages are drawn from my own experiences. And if, because of reading this story, one more boy is led to the Shrine of the Hemlock, there to ih hale the pungent incense from a camp-fire and to master the art of tossing a flapjack, I shall feel that I have not written in vain.

The smiling Peanut, always cheerful, always ready for fun or for trouble, can hardly be expected to stay cooped up in the village of Southmead all his life! We have no idea where he'll go, but it is certain that he, and some of his fellow scouts, will go somewhere pretty soon, to see strange countries and tackle new adventures. And it is equally certain that Peanut will expect us to write a book about it. The last time we saw him, he had almost decided to save up his earnings and go with Mr. Rogers to the great Dismal Swamp Of Virginia, and was urging the Wildcat and others to go along, too. Anyhow.
