THE WONDER ISLAND BOYS By ROGER T. FINLAY
A new series of books, each complete in itself, relating the remarkable experiences of two boys and a man, who are cast upon an island in the South Seas with absolutely nothing but the clothing they wore. By the exercise of their ingenuity they succeed in fashioning clothing, tools and weapons and not only do they train nature's forces to work for them but they subdue and finally civilize neighboring savage tribes. The books contain two thousand items of interest that every boy ought to know.

I am awfully anxious to know where the charted islands can be that John spoke about, remarked George, as Harry was consulting the plans of the boat they were building.
They must be in this section of the southern seas, or his party wouldn't have sailed in this direction, answered Harry, after a pause.
Do you think he would be offended if we spoke to him about it!
No; answered Harry, after some reflection. He has spoken to me about it several times. But why do you ask!
For the reason that I think it would be a grand thing to hunt them up.
Harry laughed, and then slowly said: That would be a big thing to undertake. But what about going home?
I hadn't forgotten that. I meant that when we came back it would be proper for us to undertake.
