GROSSET & DUNLAP'S
Great Books at Little Prices
NEW, CLEVER, ENTERTAINING.
GRET: The Story of a Pagan. By Beatrice Mantle. Illustrated by C.
M. Relyea.
The wild free life of an Oregon lumber camp furnishes the setting
for this strong original story. Gret is the daughter of the camp
and is utterly content with the wild life--until love comes. A
fine book, unmarred by convention.
OLD CHESTER TALES. By Margaret Deland. Illustrated by Howard Pyle.
