reader does not let one event that hap pened to the white-eared holy elephant escape him. From the time when, as Ganesh, the Holy One. he wandered with his master in the Jungles of teak trees, and pensado and Tilsapa, till he saved by his master, till he became sec ond leader of the herd; till the evil day when Haltine Ga decoy elephant). came to seek him in the jungle and lead him into the stockade, with the 'keddah.
 There he was fed of sweetmeats from golden dishes and kept for the King of Burma. No one rode our elephant of the white ears except the great Mahout and he lived life of ease till war came. Then the captors carried him to Ram goon, there harnessed with chains he worked in the timber yards until he was sent to the great Zoo to the good keeper of beasts, La Zada.
 Gidar. the Jackal of Burma. began his story with the song of his tribe:
 "Oo-oo-oo- co -oo- o-o-o-o!
 smell a dead Hindoo-oo!'
 That would be my cry. Brothers. Then from all quarters of the jungle the Pack would take up the song and sing1back:
 Where. where. where. whereT
 And would answer back cheerily:
 Here. here. here. here!' M
 Then altogether we would sing with all our lungs:
 'Oo-oo-oo-oo-o-
 Musselman or Hind-oo?
 Here. there. or anywhere,
 All flesh is flesh, we do not dare" And his story of the jungle and it's dwellers is followed by the story of his cousin the Coyote, and his more dis tant kinsman, The Prarie Wolf. Each night one of the Zoo Dwellers tells his tale: Raj Bhele. the King Tiger. King Cobra, Many Monkeys, The Buff falo, the Beson, Unt, The Camel Big Tusk, the Wild Boar. Oohor the Wolf, and Sher Abi, the Crocodile. Last of all La'Zada, the Zoo keeper, tells the stories of many wild creatures that he met in the jungles and mountain, plain and valleys when he was a hunter of beasts and not keeper of animals.
 The book is rich in animal-lore, in wood craft. Much is learned from 1t of the habits and habitat of the wild creatures. Animal life and the wilder ness he makes an open book to us. teaching us by the fireside what he has learned in the wild drive. the hard hunt, the weary tourneying of many a long year. He brings to our arm chair the intimate knowledge of the innermost depths of the jungle. the secrets of the deserts sandy sweep. the hidden places of great clefts in the snow crowned ranges.
 A rare treat.
