THE END
WHERE THE SOULSOF MEN ARECALLING
The first big love story to come out of the war zone—founded on fact more strange, more powerful than fiction.
The author, Lt. Credo Harris, stationed in France with the International Red Cross, is a Kentuckian. He just couldn't keep out of it "Over There." His story starts with the entrance of America into the war and ends on the firing line of France. There is charm and skill in his style which insures keenest interest on the part of the reader.
What the Critics are saying:
"A story of strong characters blended, it exemplifies the old maxim that 'truth is stranger than fiction,' and in this case more powerful."—Buffalo News.
"One of those books that grip and grip."—Milwaukee Sentinel.
"A book worth while and a book to recommend."—Louisville Herald.
"Combines the interest of character study with a realistic picture of life in the war zone."—Courier Journal.
"Jeb proves that a coward can become the bravest of men."—Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph.

LAUGH AND LIVE
A WONDERFUL BOOK OF INSPIRATIONBy DOUGLAS FAIRBANKSThe Man Who Set the World to Laughing—andKept Himself Happy and Well.
Many are the inspirational books that now abound written around the various phases of existence, but "Laugh and Live" is a thing apart from any other. Perhaps it is the author's style of writing, sort of "hammer and tongs," breezy, convincing, seeming to come out of real experience. But the remarkable quality of the book is that it fascinates the mind the same as a high-class novel—grips one's faculties from chapter to chapter. There is no preaching, no "Fatherliness," no "Big I" and "Little You" in the text. It is more like the talk of a widely experienced comrade back from a voyage. Asked to tell what he saw in his travels he proceeds to do it modestly and well.

A THOUSANDWAYS TO PLEASEA HUSBAND
ByLOUISE BENNETT WEAVERandHELEN COWLES LE CRONWith Decorations in ColorBy ELIZABETH COLBORNEA SPLENDID GIFT FOR A BRIDE
This volume is not the usual dull plodding kitchen cook book made up from "collected" recipes and enlivened by photographic reproductions of cakes, pies, roasted turkeys, and tables set with knives and forks placed "just so." Rather it is the "life and adventures" of "Bob" and "Bettina," who sail into the complexities of housekeeping the moment the wedding journey is at an end. Bettina's "know-how," plus "Bob's" good-natured helpfulness, bring about immediate success to a lively and interesting attempt at home-building.
Unique—practical—for two people in particular and small families in general. For economy and plenty at one and the same time it has no equal.

UNCLE BILL'S LETTERSTO HIS NIECE
ByRAY BROWN
Here's as gay a little gift as any girl could wish. Bright, sparkling and joyous—letters from a matter-of-fact old uncle who talks to his young niece straight from the shoulder, exactly as he might to a boy.
Uncle Bill gives facts about moonlight, becomes violent over athletics, taboos snobbery, takes a fling at heredity, and touches up a few complexions.
The result is extravagantly and deliciously funny—Just the Book for an Ingenue.
