That’s the story of David’s journey with the Arcturus Expedition to the Galapagos Islands on the Equator—volcanoes, sea-lions, pirates, lost treasure, sharks, harpooning n’everything! Really a bully book written by David when he was 12 years old.
“David Goes Voyaging” is a book just like this one. The price is $1.75. Get it at your bookstore or send to the publishers (10 cents extra for postage).

Another bully book for boys and girls, written by a boy!
Deric in Mesa Verde
is a boy’s record of his life in Mesa Verde National Park, out in the cliff-dwellers’ country of Southern Colorado.
Deric himself is just thirteen years old. His father, the superintendent of the Park, is an archaeologist, and his mother a student and lover of the fascinating country in which they live. So Deric from the beginning has had rare opportunity to soak up understandingly the unusual interests of his environment.
Here is his own story in his own words. It’s full of the lore of yesterday and the lure of today—exploring and treasure-hunting finds and adventures, Indians, wild animals, folk-lore, bird-nesting. A book to delight boys and girls and grown-ups. With many photographs and sketches. Price $1.75—Postage 10 cents.
