CAMPFIRE STORIES.
"Campfiro Stories and How to Tell Them" (Herbert Jenkins) is written specially for those meti and women who are liable to be asked, "Toil us a. story, Skipper." The author, Arthur Catherall, has very evidently captured the high art of holding his audience to the last word and a study of his style alone must prove of value' to all would-be story tellers. But the author supplies even greater help than that, for the chapter
"How to Begin" discloses the rules which he has found valuable in story telling. Perhaps of even'greater importance is the cbapter on how to end one's talc. The book gives the reader much advice, and it also contains a fine selection of "yarns" suited to many arid varying tastes. Scoiiters and guiders in particular will find' this book valuable^
