Patriotic Plays and Pageants for Young People
The one-act plays for young people contained in this volume can be
produced separately, or may be used as links in the chain of episodes
which go to make up outdoor or indoor pageants. There are full
directions for simple costumes, dances, and music. Each play deals with
the _youth_ of some American hero. The plays are suitable for schools,
summer camps, boys' clubs, historic festivals, patriotic societies, and
social settlements, and play grounds. $1.35 net; by mail, $1.45.

The Silver Thread and Other Folk Plays for Young People
Simplicity is the keynote of these eight plays. Each has a footnote
on its origin, and full descriptions and directions for easily arranged
costumes and scene-settings, especially designed to fit the limitations
of the schoolroom stage. $1,20 net; by mail, $1.30.

The House of the Heart and Other Plays for Children
Ten one-act plays that have stood the test of actual production.
$1.20 net; by mail, $1.30.
"An addition to child drama which has been sorely needed."--_Boston
