  In Bayport, things were moving on as usual. From week to week the Rev. Mr. Fenwick appeared in the pulpit of the village church, and officiated to the satisfaction of all but a small minority of the parish. For there were a few malcontents, headed by Deacon Crane, who had not yet lost the hope of seeing the pulpit filled by his cousin, who, not being popular, had been unemployed more than half the time during the past year. The deacon went about and dropped disparaging remarks about Mr. Fenwick, but they did not bear fruit. To his chagrin, he found that very few cared for a change. He was perplexed, but none the less determined to bring about his desires. To facilitate his purpose, he informed the treasurer of the parish that he should reduce by one-half his subscription to the parish expenses. “Why is this, Deacon Crane?” asked the treasurer. “Are you getting poor?” “No, Brother Jones; but I ain’t exactly satisfied with our pastor.” “Why not?” “I don’t seem to get much spiritooal refreshment from his sermons.” “The rest of the congregation do, and they are to be considered.” The deacon had nothing to say in reply, but he stayed at home the next Sunday. One reason for his dissatisfaction came from a letter he had received from his clerical relative, asking for the loan of one hundred dollars. “I can’t lend you the money,” he replied; “but if I can get the parish to dismiss Mr. Fenwick, I will try to get you in his place.” It was while the deacon was exercised in this way that his son Noah ran into the store one afternoon and exclaimed: “Who do you think has just gone past the store?” “You had better tell me, Noah. I can’t waste my time in guessing.” “It was the minister’s son, Guy.” Deacon Crane pricked up his ears. “How did he look?” “Pretty fair.” “He’s probably lost his place, and come home to live on his father.” “Shouldn’t be a bit surprised, dad.” “Noah,” said the deacon, much shocked, “never call me dad again! It isn’t respectful!” “All right, father. You’d better call at the minister’s and find out what brings Guy home this time.” “I think I may have occasion to call this evening,” replied the deacon. Meanwhile we will follow Guy home. His father was overjoyed to see his son back again, for he was deeply attached to his only child. After the first greetings were over, Guy said: “You don’t ask me whether I am still at work for Mr. Saunders.” “I thought you would tell me in due time, Guy. Now I can only think with joy of your return.” “Well, father, I mean to stay at home, or at least near home, for a year. Mr. Saunders has given me a vacation of twelve months.” “Doubtless, my son, you can find some employment here, since he will not need you for a year.” Guy smiled. “There is no reason to worry about that, father,” he said. “How are you getting on with Deacon Crane?” “I think, Guy, he would prefer to have a younger man in my place. It makes me feel that I am growing old.” “Pooh, father! You are only fifty-two. But, tell me, did you not at one time think of writing a commentary on the Gospels?” “Yes, Guy; but my sermon writing takes all my time.” “Then why not apply to the parish to give you a young man as a colleague?” “The parish cannot afford to pay two salaries.” “Then you might offer to serve as senior pastor without salary.” “But, Guy, how am I to live?” “What salary does the parish pay you now?” “A thousand dollars.” “Very well, father, ask for an assistant, and I will pay you twelve hundred dollars a year.” “I suppose you are joking, Guy.” “Not at all. I am in earnest.” “But where are you to get the money?” asked Mr. Fenwick, looking at his son in bewilderment. “I must tell you, father, that I am worth over a hundred thousand dollars.” “If you had not always been truthful, Guy, I should think that you were trying to deceive me.” Then Guy explained. The explanation was, to “Now, father,” Guy concluded, “I will alter the terms of my proposal. I will make over to you outright the sum of twenty-five thousand dollars, and you can invest it so as to produce a good income.” Finally, Mr. Fenwick accepted his son’s proposal, and agreed to communicate with the parish. That same evening Deacon Crane tapped at the door and was admitted. Guy was at home, and sat demurely in his father’s study. “So you’ve got home, have you, Guy?” was his greeting, preceded by a cough. “Noah told me he saw you go by the store.” “Yes; Noah is a great friend of mine,” returned Guy, with a smile. “I hope he is well.” “Yes; I am thankful to say he is. He’s a good stiddy boy, Noah is; he don’t go gadding about all over the world.” “Like me?” suggested Guy, with a smile. The deacon coughed, but did not disclaim the amendment. “Have you lost your place?” he asked. “Mr. Saunders has given me a year’s vacation,” answered Guy. “Humph!” said the deacon. “That’s rather “I shall not try for one. I am going to stay at home with father part of the time.” “You’re pretty young to retire from business,” sneered the deacon. “I shall be glad to have Noah call on me.” “I don’t approve of Noah bein’ idle. He’s helpin’ me in the store, out of school.” “By the way, Deacon Crane,” said the minister, who was enjoying in his quiet way the deacon’s misunderstanding, “I am glad you called in. I want to consult you about church matters. Guy wants me to ask for a younger man to share with me the responsibilities of parish work, as a colleague.” “Mr. Fenwick,” said the deacon, greatly surprised, “you must be aware that the parish cannot afford to pay two ministers. As it is, we are cramped by our agreement to pay you a thousand dollars.” “For that reason I propose to relinquish my own salary. There will be but one salary to pay.” “But,” said the deacon, inexpressibly surprised, “how are you going to live?” “Perhaps I ought to mention that a relative has given me twenty-five thousand dollars. I can live on the income arising from that.” Deacon Crane looked at the minister with greatly increased respect, for he set high value on worldly prosperity. “Why, that makes you a rich man, Mr. Fenwick,” he said. “Indeed, I feel so.” “But I didn’t know you had any rich relatives.” “Nor I, till to-day.” “Do you mind telling me who has given you this handsome fortune?” “Guy,” answered the minister, briefly. “I didn’t come here to be made a fool of!” said the deacon, angrily, half rising in his chair. “No one has tried to make a fool of you,” returned Guy, quickly. “I have been very fortunate, and can well afford to give my father twenty-five thousand dollars. He is anxious to get time to write a commentary on the Gospels, and so I have induced him to ask for a colleague.” “Is this really true, Guy?” “You can rely upon it, Deacon Crane. Father may have occasion to consult you about the investment of his money.” “I’ll be very glad to oblige him,” said the deacon, generously. “When will he come into possession of the amount?” “Next week.” “I congratulate you heartily, Guy,” said the deacon, very cordially. “I always thought you were a smart boy.” “I am sorry you don’t want Noah to come to see me. I have brought him a gold watch from New York.” “I’ll send him right over,” said the deacon, briskly. “He thinks a sight of you.” “I am glad to hear that. I shall always be glad to do him a good turn.” “I guess I must be goin’,” said the deacon, who was anxious to spread the wonderful news. “Well, father, did you see Guy?” asked Noah, when his father entered the store. “Yes, I did.” “Is he out of work?” “He needn’t work any more as long as he lives,” said the deacon, solemnly. “Guy’s come home with a fortune. He’s just given his father twenty-five thousand dollars.” Noah listened with eyes and mouth wide open. “Do tell, pa!” he said. “Yes. Guy’s an awfully smart boy. He’s brought home a gold watch for you, Noah, and he’ll give it to you when you go over.” “I’ll go right over, pa.” “And I am willin’ you should be with him as “You bet I will, pa!” “Don’t use that expression, Noah! Remember you are a deacon’s son.” In a few weeks the changes already hinted at were effected. Mr. Fenwick was provided with a colleague, but not the deacon’s relative, and had begun work on his commentary. At the end of a year Guy entered the office of the New York correspondent of John Saunders, whom he will eventually succeed. He makes a good business man, and Mr. Saunders has never had occasion to regret the interest he has taken in the young American. THE END BOY AVIATORS’ SERIES By Captain Wilbur Lawton Absolutely Modern Stories for Boys Cloth Bound Price, 50c per volume The Boy Aviators in Nicaragua Or, Leagued With Insurgents The launching of this Twentieth Century series marks the inauguration of a new era in boys’ books—the “wonders of modern science” epoch. Frank and Harry Chester, the Boy Aviators, are the heroes of this exciting, red-blooded tale of adventure by air and land in the turbulent Central American republic. The two brothers with their $10,000 prize aeroplane, the Golden Eagle, rescue a chum from death in the clutches of the Nicaraguans, discover a lost treasure valley of the ancient Toltec race, and in so doing almost lose their own lives in the Abyss of the White Serpents, and have many other exciting experiences, including being blown far out to sea in their air-skimmer in a tropical storm. It would be unfair to divulge the part that wireless plays in rescuing them from their predicament. In a brand new field of fiction for boys the Chester brothers and their aeroplane seem destined to fill a top-notch place. These books are technically correct, wholesomely thrilling and geared up to third speed. Sold by Booksellers Everywhere BOY AVIATORS’ SERIES By Captain Wilbur Lawton Absolutely Modern Stories for Boys Cloth Bound Price, 50c per volume The Boy Aviators on Secret Service Or, Working With Wireless In this live-wire narrative of peril and adventure, laid in the Everglades of Florida, the spunky Chester Boys and their interesting chums, including Ben Stubbs, the maroon, encounter exciting experiences on Uncle Sam’s service in a novel field. One must read this vivid, enthralling story of incident, hardship and pluck to get an idea of the almost limitless possibilities of the two greatest inventions of modern times—the aeroplane and wireless telegraphy. While gripping and holding the reader’s breathless attention from the opening words to the finish, this swift-moving story is at the same time instructive and uplifting. As those readers who have already made friends with Frank and Harry Chester and their “bunch” know, there are few difficulties, no matter how insurmountable they may seem at first blush, that these up-to-date gritty youths cannot overcome with flying colors. A clean-cut, real boys’ book of high voltage. Sold by Booksellers Everywhere HURST & CO. Publishers NEW YORK BOY AVIATORS’ SERIES BY CAPTAIN WILBUR LAWTON Absolutely Modern Stories for Boys Cloth Bound Price 50c per volume The Boy Aviators in Africa Or, An Aerial Ivory Trail In this absorbing book we meet, on a Continent made famous by the American explorer Stanley, and ex-President Roosevelt, our old friends, the Chester Boys and their stalwart chums. In Africa—the Dark Continent—the author follows in exciting detail his young heroes, their voyage in the first aeroplane to fly above the mysterious forests and unexplored ranges of the mystic land. In this book, too, for the first time, we entertain Luther Barr, the old New York millionaire, who proved later such an implacable enemy of the boys. The story of his defeated schemes, of the astonishing things the boys discovered in the Mountains of the Moon, of the pathetic fate of George Desmond, the emulator of Stanley, the adventure of the Flying Men and the discovery of the Arabian Ivory cache,—this is not the place to speak. It would be spoiling the zest of an exciting tale to reveal the outcome of all these episodes here. It may be said, however, without “giving away” any of the thrilling chapters of this narrative, that Captain Wilbur Lawton, the author, is in it in his best vein, and from his personal experiences in Africa has been able to supply a striking background for the adventures of his young heroes. As one newspaper says of this book: “Here is adventure in good measure, pressed down and running over.” Sold by Booksellers Everywhere BOY AVIATORS’ SERIES BY CAPTAIN WILBUR LAWTON Absolutely Modern Stories for Boys Cloth Bound Price 50c per volume The Boy Aviators Treasure Quest Or, The Golden Galleon Everybody is a boy once more when it comes to the question of hidden treasure. In this book, Captain Lawton has set forth a hunt for gold that is concealed neither under the sea nor beneath the earth, but is well hidden for all that. A garrulous old sailor, who holds the key to the mystery of the Golden Galleon, plays a large part in the development of the plot of this fascinating narrative of treasure hunting in the region of the Gulf Stream and the Sagasso Sea. An aeroplane fitted with efficient pontoons—enabling her to skim the water successfully—has long been a dream of aviators. The Chester Boys seem to have solved the problem. The Sagasso, that strange drifting ocean within an ocean, holding ships of a dozen nations and a score of ages, in its relentless grip, has been the subject of many books of adventure and mystery, but in none has the secret of the ever shifting mass of treacherous currents been penetrated as it has in the BOY AVIATORS TREASURE QUEST. Luther Barr, whom it seemed the boys had shaken off, is still on their trail, in this absorbing book and with a dirigible balloon, essays to beat them out in their search for the Golden Galleon. Every boy, every man—and woman and girl—who has ever felt the stirring summons of adventure in their souls, had better get hold of this book. Once obtained, it will be read and re-read till it falls to rags.

By the time these lines are read, exactly such an offer will have been spread broadcast by one of the foremost newspapers of the country. In the Golden Eagle, the boys, accompanied by a trail-blazing party in an automobile, make the dash. But they are not alone in their aspirations. Their rivals for the rich prize at stake try in every way that they can to circumvent the lads and gain the valuable trophy and monetary award. In this they stop short at nothing, and it takes all the wits and resources of the Boy Aviators to defeat their devices. Among the adventures encountered in their cross-country flight, the boys fall in with a band of rollicking cow-boys—who momentarily threaten serious trouble—are attacked by Indians, strike the most remarkable town of the desert—the “dry” town of “Gow Wells,” encounter a sandstorm which blows them into strange lands far to the south of their course, and meet with several amusing mishaps beside. A thoroughly readable book. The sort to take out behind the barn on the sunny side of the haystack, and, with a pocketful of juicy apples and your heels kicking the air, pass happy hours with Captain Lawton’s young heroes.

Well, in Captain Lawton’s latest book, concerning his Boy Aviators, you can not only read absorbing adventure in the regions south of the eightieth parallel, but absorb much useful information as well. Captain Lawton introduces—besides the original characters of the heroes—a new creation in the person of Professor Simeon Sandburr, a patient seeker for polar insects. The professor’s adventures in his quest are the cause of much merriment, and lead once or twice to serious predicaments. In a volume so packed with incident and peril from cover to cover—relieved with laughable mishaps to the professor—it is difficult to single out any one feature; still, a recent reader of it wrote the publishers an enthusiastic letter the other day, saying: “The episodes above the Great Barrier are thrilling, the attack of the condors in Patagonia made me hold my breath, the—but what’s the use? The Polar Dash, to my mind, is an even more entrancing book than Captain Lawton’s previous efforts, and that’s saying a good deal. The aviation features and their technical correctness are by no means the least attractive features of this up-to-date creditable volume.” Sold by Booksellers Everywhere OAKDALE ACADEMY SERIES Stories of Modern School Sports By MORGAN SCOTT.

BOYS OF OAKDALE “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.

Connected with the dwellings of the vanished race of cliff-dwellers was a mystery. Who so fit to solve it as a band of adventurous Boy Scouts? The solving of the secret and the routing of a bold band of cattle thieves involved Rob Blake and his chums, including “Tubby” Hopkins, in grave difficulties. There are few boys who have not read of the weird snake dance and other tribal rites of Moquis. In this volume, the habits of these fast vanishing Indians are explained in interesting detail. Few boys’ books hold more thrilling chapters than those concerning Rob’s captivity among the Moquis. Through the fascinating pages of the narrative also stalks, like a grim figure of impending tragedy, the shaggy form of Silver Tip, the giant grizzly. In modern juvenile writing, there is little to be found as gripping as the scene in which Rob and Silver Tip meet face to face. The boy is weaponless and,—but it would not be fair to divulge the termination of the battle. A book which all Boy Scouts should secure and place upon their shelves to be read and re-read.
