December
Our Prize Fiction Number'
When "MOLLY MAKE-BELIEVE" appeared, our readers gave us no peace until we promised another story by the same author. Our Christmas number opens with "THE PINK SASH," by Eleanor Hallowell Abbott.
In "THE HAZARD," Katherine Cecil Thurston gives an exciting romance of the days when feelings ran high in the fight for a maiden's hand.
Rupert Hughes' story, full of snow, Christmas presents, soldiers and a girl, is entitled "DUMBHEAD."
In the "FIRE_BLUE NECKLACE," by Samuel Hopkins Adams, the well-known detective hero, "Average Jones," while in search for the adventure of life, lends Cupid a helping hand.
"THE IRISH SCHOOLMASTER," by Seumas MacManus, is the first of a series
of delightful Irish sketches. John Kendrick Bangs comes into our
Christmas issue with one of his up-to-date fairy stories; "PUSS IN THE
WALDORF."
Among the many entertaining stories in our January issue there is one by Mary Heaton Vorse, entitled "THEY MEANT WELL"—a story of too many chaperons and what happened to the girl; also, in "THE LITTLE MOTHER AND THEIR MAJESTIES," Evelyn Van Buren accomplishes her usual feat of making the reader laugh and cry at the same time.
The Boy Scout movement, its purpose and its laws, is treated by Ernest
Thompson Seton in the article "ORGANIZED BOYHOOD.
Miriam Finn Scott in "SHOW GIRLS OF INDUSTRY" relates interestingly how beauty of form and features figure as a big asset in the Business World.
