BOOKS FOR CHILDREN. The children are marvellously well catered for, and those of us who are older may well wish such an array of books, cheap, well illustrated, and interestingly written, had been available in our childhood. The familiar "Annuals" are once again with-us this Christmas: fairy story books, practical books dealing with engines, ships, aeroplanes, wireless, books of school life, wonder books, toy books, are here in profusion, and their quality is as remarkable as their cheapness. Father Christmas will have no difficulty in filling any stocking from the bounteous store in our booksellers' loaded shelves. Merely to wander through these alluring shops is to experience a rich feast. To buy a book for a friend is to make him share the feast, and come hack ' for more.—4 Ad.) /
