 The training and knowledge and spirit gained in Boy Scout work are the levers of action in "Blind Trails" Young Hal Ayres finds himself suddenly the man of the family when his father Is killed in the fire that also destroys many of his of flee records. Apparently there is nothing for Hal to do but close up his father s lumber business, since he has no knowl- edge of it, pay off the debts, give up his cherished ambition of college edu- cation and go to work. But two myste- rious offers for the business, whch ap- parently has no future, arouse his cu- riosity, an unfinished letter of his father s gives him clue, and off Hal sets with his dog Kim to find his fathers old guide and woodsman up in the north woods.

.-rHE CALL OF THE SOIL"

By the Late Arien Bertrand of the
 Chasseurs Alpines. The John Lane
 Company, publishers, New York city.
 AnatoIe France, Pierre Loti and
 others who reign in the Academic Con
 court, accorded this book the prix Con-
 court for 1916. and M. Clemenceau pre-
 dicted that the author would become
 one of the foremost figures in French
 literature, but this, alas, can never be
 as NJ. Bertrand was killed in the great war.
 Among the innumerable war novels that have been written this one occu- pies distinctive place because of its Illuminating and immortal record of the divine and unseverable link be- tween the soul of the French peasant and the soil of France. From their baptism of fire until the last great at tack in which they take part Sergeant Vaissette, Captain de Quere and Lucien Fabre, men from different parts of France and of various walks in life, oc- cupy the hours between engagements with philosophical arguments, remtn' iscences and stories in which the love | of home and country is the dominant note The dark war curtain is liftec | for moment by the author to permi' glimpse of Lucient Fabre's brief ec' static love dream, from which he is rudely recalled to his last great effor' for France.

Vaka and Kenneth Brown, is fascinat- ing story of love, adventure, and politi- cal intrigue. It is romance pure and simple, and the reader will himself live
 through some most interesting and ex- citing times in Greece, with Elihu Pea
 body, a secretary in the American Lega-
 tion at Athens.
 Demetra Vaka's writings almost in-
 variably treat of the vast, romantic, Ht-
 tle-known region called the near east. Born and brought up in Turkey and ed- ucated in Athens she is naturally well qualified to write with authority on
 the subject. Her collaboration with her , husband (Mr. Kenneth Brown), native of this country, bespeaks for this novel world wide interest, for his knowl- edge of the American character. as shown in his delineation of the young
 secretary, falls in no way short of De- metra Vaka's excellent pen pictures of the near east and its people.

Russians and the Serbians, from Persia and India and Arabia and Bengal. There arc stores of enchanted princes and be- Witched princesse, of brave deeds ana clever ones. of wonderful things like talk ing eggs and magic pipe and a carpet that flew and turban that made us wearer invisible. There are tales for boys, like that one of thebrave lad who killed the "Stoorwom;" there are stories for girls, as that one about the wise girl who could guess the hardest riddle the king could ask. And there are stories about animals and birds for both boys and girls, such as The Jackal and the Alligator" and the story of the beautiful black horse that befrinded the widows s son.
 They have all been translated directly from the folklore of these far-away countries and tell of the wonderful things that used to happen there commonly enough when the world was young and people had not last their faith in witches and enchantments. American children will enjoy them quite as much do their little cousins across the water.

 PIONEERS OF AMERICA" By A. F. Blaisdell and F. K. Ball. Illus trated. Little, Brown & Co, Publishers Boston.
 These stories of the days when America was covered with dence forests, and the mountain walls forbade easy passage from east to west, set forth for children the life and times of the backwoodsmen' hunters, fur traders and settlers who penetrated farther and farther into the west. Among the striking figures appear ing in these pages are La Salle, Daniel Boone, Pontias, Lewis and Clark, Put nam of the Ohio Company" and many others less known to fame, but of highly picturesque adventure and achievement. Perhaps the most intresting chapter is that on Everyday Life in the Wilder ness" theme which is indirectly treated in every chapter in the book.
