a direct and interesting manner. The first
| assails the theory so often exploited that
minister's sons are inclined to wildness
! The defense Of the preachers boy which
Mr.. Hooper presents is convincing. 1t pre-
sents the lad well meaning, and while
| often misled into mischief, never vicious
in his errors. Noble characteristics make
! friends for him. and he stands a fair
| type of a large and, according to Mr..
| Hooper, misunderstood class Of youngsters
| More boys like this minister's son would
make life Sweeter. The other story tells
| of the success which awaits enterprising
| lads in small towns and villages rather
| than the large cities or the country dis
| trlcts. Both stories are written in a vein
| to command the attention of the thought
| full youthful reader and are well Illus
| trated. Mr.. GunnisonS Introduction is an
| eloquent appeal for more sympathetic
| understanding of the minister's son from
| the point of view of one Of that class.
