Elizabeth Hobart at Exeter Hall

By JEAN K. BAIRD

Illustrated by R. G. VOSBURGH

A spirited story of every-day boarding-school life that girls like to
read. Full of good times and girlish fun.

Elizabeth enters the school and loses no time in becoming one of the
leading spirits. She entertains at a midnight spread, which is
recklessly conducted under the very nose of the preceptress, who is
"scalped" in order to be harmless, for every one knows she would never
venture out minus her front hair; she champions an ostracized student;
and leads in a daring plan to put to rout the Seniors' program for
class day.

By JAMES A. BRADEN

The sub-title "Two Boy Pioneers" indicates the nature of this

"Strong, vigorous, healthy, manly."--Seattle Times.

the great, fertile wilderness of northern Ohio, and eventually achieve
fair success, though their progress is hindered and sometimes halted by
adventures innumerable. It is a lively, wholesome tale, never dull,
and absorbing in interest for boys who love the fabled life of the
frontier."--Chicago Tribune.

THE TRAIL OF THE SENECA

By JAMES A. BRADEN

In which we follow the romantic careers of John Jerome and Return
Kingdom a little farther.

These two self-reliant boys are living peaceably in their cabin on the
Cuyahoga when an Indian warrior is found dead in the woods nearby. The
Seneca accuses John of witchcraft. This means death at the stake if he
is captured. They decide that the Seneca's charge is made to shield
himself, and set out to prove it. Mad Anthony, then on the Ohio, comes
to their aid, but all their efforts prove futile and the lone ca
