dragons, or drowned in q sea Of hot
pitch, or would they find India?
Red-headed Shane and young Joan
Coelho couldn't but wonder, as they
set sail from Portugal under Vase
Da Gama's command. They hoped
to discover India by sailing around
Africa-but no one knew what they
would find in these strange seas!
Adventure lay ahead - thrilling
adventure. They were to face in
tense danger and hardships, but
they would also bring back unfor-
getable memories Of Africa, the
harbor at Mozambique, and the
visit to ENTHUSIASTICALLY rich
in jewels and spices. But here, in
this beautiful city, there was
treachery, too. Had 1t not been for
Shane's quick thinking and courage,
the Captain Major himself might
never have reached Portugal with
the joyous news.
The true story Of this gallant
company's stirring experiences on
this voyage of discovery, is here
within these pages.
The Book Of Indians
BY Holling C. Holling
las a boy, I wanted to know all
about indians. How did they real
ly live? There were thousands Of
questions in my mind, and very
few answers in the books had.
In all parts Of the country scient-
lists are digging in the earth, writ
ing about what they have found,
and the things they find and the
books they write are being stored
in museums and libraries. Mrs.
Holling and I have visited these
museums and libraries and have
talked with the scientists them
selves. Besides that we have lived
with Indians. In the northern for
ests we padded their birch-bark
canoes, and slept in their wickiups.
We rode our horses beside theirs
across the great plains and camped
in their teepees in the mountains.
In the desert they made us feel at
home in their pueblos. We have
fished with them in the surf Of the
Pacific Ocean. This book Is the
result of some Of that hunting, rid
ing, camping and research.

BY Bernadine Bailey
JUST SUPPOSE
If you were lost in a snow storm
on a mountain, what would you dor
If you lived on boat all the
time, what games would you play?
If your home were made of snow,

to melt.
If you heard an Indian war whoop
just outside your house, what would
you do?
If you lived in a cave of long ago,
where would you get food and
clothes?
If you lived on desert, what
would you do if it didn't rain for
weeks and weeks?
If you lived in castle, what
would you do if you found a secret
room?
Children in other parts Of the
world have had adventures like
these. 'Cave, Castle and Cottage"
tells you all about it.
