THREE STORIES OF SERVICE
Few American boys east of the Mis-
sissippi realize the miracles Uncle
Sam has performed in turning the dry
Western plains into well-watered gar
dens. Bobby Cullen did not realize
either, till the river near his nome
overfiowed its banks, destroying the
town and most everybody IN 1t. a
government engineering expert came
TO examine the ruins, liked boldly ana
took him to Arizona with him, whefe
Uncle Sam was constructing the koose-
welt irrigation dam, the largest IN the
world. Bobby entered the government
service, and after some exciting al
ventures became an engineer. Inc
story, "Uncle Sans Outdoor Magic
Harper & Bros.), by Percy Reese
Fitzhugh, is we'll told and instructive.
Just as instructive is Irving Crump 5
"Boy's Book of Firemen" (Dodd. Mead
& Coz. II is story OF modern nre
fighting methods, as used by the great
est fire department in the world, that
of New York City. In the vivid style
of a newspaper man Mr.. Crump de-
scribes some of New York's biggest
fires, the apparatus used TO fight them
and the dangers encountered. Nor
does the author forget the tireboats
that guard New York Harbor. The
book is illustrated with photographs.
The history of the United States
mail service is more exciting than
many boys imagine. In early days the
mail was carried by pony or stage
coach through regions where Indians
and hold-up men were often met. Even
to-day Uncle Sans mail men need TO
be brave ones and true. In an illus
trated book, "The Boy with the Mail"
(Lothrop, Lee e. Shepard, Francis
Rolf Wheeler tells the story of the
United States mail in a manner both
romantic and informative.
HOW TO MAKE THINGS
City and country boys alike will ap-
preciate Milton Goldsmith's "Practi-
cal Things with Simple Tools" (Sully
& Kleinteich). He tells how many
toys and useful articles can be made
at small expense with simple tools
sidewalk coasters, kites, sleds. bird
shelters, iceboats, book shelves, home
made talking machines, etc. Diagrams
help make the directions clear.
