A book which should interest
many of you is "Sandlappers" by
Anworth Rutherford.
"Sandlappers" is a sparkling adj
venture story concerning two col
lege youths, Tip" Swain and
"Dode" Smith, who are suddenly
confronted with the problem of con-
vincing their parents they are
worthy Of a college education by
successfully developing an irriga-
ton project on a desert claim.
How they become toughened in
to genuine sandlappers, almost dis
cover gold, become involved in a
thrilling mystery and are tried for
cattle rustling, and finally make
good-all this, we say, constitutes a
fast-moving, vigorous, and colorful
take for boys Of all ages.
Readers, whether youthful or
adult, will find in "Sandlappers"
the same zest and humor and
wholesome tang they have found
in Hidden Island" "Squawberry
Canyon" and other books by An
worth Rutherford. Above all there
is the spirit Of invincible youth, de-
flying dangers, overcoming hard
ships, learning life's lessons.
