"Bar-20." Outing Pub. Co., New
York, is the cognomen of a collec-
tion OF short stories of ranch life by
Clarence e. Mulford. There is more
than the canons permit of literary
ginger but the writer is easily par
donable in these days of multitude
nous placidity. Hoopalong Cassidy
is a stringent character who was
once shot in the leg and rather pre-
ferred to be shot any old way 20
not being shot. These tales are
full OF tar and gravel, life and racket,
have a rich red western flavor, and
are mighty good reading.
