OHN MARTIN'S Publications for Children maintain the
same high standard that has been held for ten years by
John Martin's Book, the Child's Magazine. They are
books built absolutely from the child's point of view, full of
the twinkles and twists that children love.

talk with you about your individual problem. Our service is
available, also, for those at a distance. Write us the age,
temperament, and taste of your children, and we will gladly
supply lists of desirable books.

Stuart P. Sherman:

"Page's gusto and unconventionality and even his
rages are fascinating in themselves, and, working
in the service of a democratic faith, so lofty and
so comprehensive, they are irresistible, they add to
his racy vernacular an eloquent and angry beauty,
they touch that slumbering organ which also
craves for its part in the national music, the heart.
'Here,' I have said to myself again and again,
'here is the voice of America's higher self. Here
is a man who has unmistakably arrived at that
point of view regarding our social and national
destinies, which all intelligent men will reach by
and by.""
