Ten Thousand Public Enemies, by
Courtney Ryley Cooper, published by
Little, Brown and Company, price
$3.00.
By reason of the respect in which
Courtney Ryley Cooper is held he has
been accorded an opportunity seldom
extended to any writer to view the in-
ner workings of this vast criminal-
catching agency. It is a fascinating
story of the workings of the Division
of Investigation of the Department of
Justice, and the man hunts for one
after another of the ten thousand, the
secret operations, the dangers and hun-
dreds of hitherto unknown and thrill-
ing facts about the Division form only
part of the book. The story of the
single finger-print and that of the man
who literally talked himself to death
are among the curious cases.
How to Run A Lathe is a helpful
booklet of 160 pages, published by
South Bend Lathe Works, 465 E.
Madison Street, South Bend, Ind. The
price is 25c, paper cover. Its purpose
is to aid the beginner or apprentice in
the machine shop and the student in
the school shop to secure a better un-
derstanding of the fundamentals of the
operation of a modern Screw Cutting
Engine Lathe. Many manufacturers,
engineers, authors, educators, and me-
chanics have contributed to this hand-
somely illustrated, very practical little
booklet.
In the Saddle with Uncle Bill. Pub-
lished by Charles Scribner's Sons.
Price, $2.00. Written and illustrated
by our friend, Will James, author of
"Uncle Bill," "Lone Cowboy,"
"Smoky," etc.
This is a story of Kip and Scootie,
a boy and girl and their adventures
on a big Western ranch. Will James
is famous as a portrayer of the real
West, both in word and picture.
The Boy Builders, by Edwin T.
Hamilton, Dodd-Mead & Co., price
$2.50. A modern, up-to-date handbook
for boys giving directions for making
over 100 articles out of wood.
A Book of Dogs, Oxford University
Press, 114 Fifth Avenue, New York.

d. Each group having a possible part
for one of the shows will be asked
to "Try out" before a member of
the theater staff. Make your efforts
good and you will have a chance to
act in the biggest show on earth.
That's worth working for!
5. Study the City of Washington and
its History
Lastly, it would be fine if your whole
Troop spent some time studying
our National Capital. It is a grand
place and filled with things of interest
to all Americans and students of
American history. Not only will this
help the Scout you are sending, but it
will make all the Scouts in your Troop
better citizens. To this could be
added a study of the history of the
places along the way he is to travel.
All this will add greatly to the
value of the trip.
And now we wish you an interesting
time developing this constructive
program. Especially do we congratu-
late the fortunate Scout who is to
represent your Troop and use the
items you have made for him.
