Frank Armstrong’s Vacation
How Frank’s summer experiences with his boy friends make him into a sturdy young athlete through swimming, boating and baseball contests, and a tramp through the Everglades, is the subject of this splendid story.
Frank Armstrong at Queens
We find among the jolly boys at Queen’s School, Frank, the student-athlete, Jimmy, the baseball enthusiast, and Lewis, the unconsciously-funny youth who furnishes comedy for every page that bears his name. Fall and winter sports between intensely rival school teams are expertly described.
Frank Armstrong’s Second Term
The gymnasium, the track and the field make the background for the stirring events of this volume, in which David, Jimmy, Lewis, the “Wee One” and the “Codfish” figure, while Frank “saves the day.”
Frank Armstrong, Drop Kicker
With the same persistent determination that won him success in swimming, running and baseball playing, Frank Armstrong acquired the art of “drop-kicking,” and the Queen’s football team profits thereby.
Frank Armstrong, Captain of the Nine
Exciting contests, unexpected emergencies, interesting incidents by land and water make this story of Frank Armstrong a strong tale of school-life, athletic success, and loyal friendships.
Frank Armstrong at College
With the development of this series, the boy characters have developed until in this, the best story of all, they appear as typical college students; giving to each page the life and vigor of the true college spirit.

BEN STONE AT OAKDALE
Under peculiarly trying circumstances Ben Stone wins his way at Oakdale Academy, and at the same time enlists our sympathy, interest and respect. Through the enmity of Bern Hayden, the loyalty of Roger Eliot and the clever work of the “Sleuth.” Ben is falsely accused, championed and vindicated.
BOYS OF OAKDALE ACADEMY.
“One thing I will claim, and that is that all Grants fight open and square and there never was a sneak among them.” It was Rodney Grant, of Texas, who made the claim to his friend, Ben Stone, and this story shows how he proved the truth of this statement in the face of apparent evidence to the contrary.
RIVAL PITCHERS OF OAKDALE.
Baseball is the main theme of this interesting narrative, and that means not only clear and clever descriptions of thrilling games, but an intimate acquaintance with the members of the teams who played them. The Oakdale Boys were ambitious and loyal, and some were even disgruntled and jealous, but earnest, persistent work won out.
OAKDALE BOYS IN CAMP.
The typical vacation is the one that means much freedom, little restriction, and immediate contact with “all outdoors.” These conditions prevailed in the summer camp of the Oakdale Boys and made it a scene of lively interest.
THE GREAT OAKDALE MYSTERY.
The “Sleuth” scents a mystery! He “follows his nose.” The plot thickens! He makes deductions. There are surprises for the reader—and for the “Sleuth,” as well.
NEW BOYS AT OAKDALE.
A new element creeps into Oakdale with another year’s registration of students. The old and the new standards of conduct in and out of school meet, battle, and cause sweeping changes in the lives of several of the boys.

FROM BOYHOOD TO MANHOOD(The Life of Benjamin Franklin).ByWm. M. Thayer.
Benjamin Franklin was known in the scientific world for his inventions and discoveries, in the diplomatic world because of his statesmanship, and everywhere, because of his sound judgment, plain speaking, and consistent living.
FROM FARM HOUSE TO WHITE HOUSE (The Life of George Washington). ByWm. M. Thayer.
The story of the hatchet and other familiar incidents of the boyhood and young manhood of Washington are included in this book, as well as many less well-known accounts of his experiences as surveyor, soldier, emissary, leader, and first president of the United States.
FROM LOG CABIN TO WHITE HOUSE (The Life of James A. Garfield). ByWm. M. Thayer.
It was a long step from pioneer home in Ohio where James A. Garfield was born, to the White House in Washington, and that it was an interesting life-journey one cannot doubt who reads Mr. Thayer’s account of it.
FROM PIONEER HOME TO WHITE HOUSE (The Life of Abraham Lincoln). ByWm. M. Thayer.
No President was ever dearer to the hearts of his people than was homely, humorous “Honest Abe.”
To read of his mother, his early home, his efforts for an education, and his rise to prominence is to understand better his rare nature and practical wisdom.
FROM RANCH TO WHITE HOUSE (The Life of Theodore Roosevelt). ByEdward S. Ellis, A. M.
Every boy and girl is more or less familiar with the experiences of Mr. Roosevelt as Colonel and President, but few of them know him as the boy and man of family and school circles and private citizenship.
Mr. Ellis describes Theodore Roosevelt as a writer, a hunter, a fighter of “graft” at home and of Spaniards in Cuba, and a just and vigorous defender of right.
FROM TANNERY TO WHITE HOUSE (The Life of Ulysses S. Grant). ByWm. M. Thayer.
Perhaps General Grant is best known to boys and girls as the hero of the famous declaration: “I will fight it out on this line if it takes all summer.”
We will mail any of the above books prepaid at 60 cents each or the six for $3.50.
