SPORTS
There is a greater appreciation of athletic sports among Americans than
among people of any other nationality.
We have had definite proof of this in the correspondence occasioned by
our publication of the adventures of Frank and Dick Merriwell. These two
boys are active athletes. They are proficient in every line of sport,
and they play fair or not at all.
This last feature of the Merriwell stories fills our daily mail with
letters from readers who say that they appreciate the integrity and
fairness of the Merriwells more than words can tell.
These books, while of greatest interest to the right-thinking boy are
educational and make for the development of a character which will
enable the average boy to meet his fellows fairly and squarely in the
battle of life.

Bill Cody
At a rough estimate there are 400 million civilized human beings who
have heard of Bill Cody, not under his real name, but by the name
everybody called him, "Buffalo Bill."
His character made him an outstanding figure during a period of the
development of America when a strong character was a matter of vital
necessity.
We doubt, however, whether the man's work is fully appreciated, or ever
has been. In the rush and bustle that followed the introduction of the
railroad to the West, the results of Buffalo Bill's work were more or
less overlooked, but a time is coming when this remarkable man's
achievements will be fully appreciated.
This is the character whose adventures are dealt with in Buffalo Bill's
Border Stories.
Read them. You will find them of true historical value.
