Notes
The HANDY VOLUME ATLAS OF THE WORLD has long enjoyed a large measure of popularity as the most complete and accurate Compendium of Geographical Information of its size published. The evidence of this continued popularity lies in the fact that, since it was first produced under the Editorship of the eminent Geographer, the late Dr. E. G. Ravenstein, no fewer than fourteen large editions have been issued. In this, the FIFTEENTH EDITION, the present Editor has endeavoured to deserve a continuance of that popularity, by making the new issue of the Atlas a complete SURVEY of POST-WAR GEOGRAPHY, exhibiting, in their natural order, the territorial changes and political changes throughout the World effected by the Peace Treaties and Agreements following the Great War. -- Excerpt from Preface, p. v

Abstract
Native American tribes living on the Great Plains have long attracted the attention of Euro-American scholars, inspiring over the years a vast quantity of research. The contributors to this volume discuss and evaluate all the major works of scholarship devoted to the culture of Plains Indians, from the arrival of these peoples on the North American grasslands thousands of years ago, through their subsequent Village and High Plains lifeways, to their present-day adaption to reservation and urban life. Toghether, the twenty-two authors undertake a comprehensive survey of the state of anthropology on the Plains: what it has been, what it is now, and what it may offer theory and method in the future. -- From interior dustjacket

Description
A black, heavy, cast iron-like Apollo Sound 16mm film projector. It has a unique shape with an art deco type styling. One side of the projector features a switch and silver metal knobs where the tightly coiled spring would be placed to move the film. There is a label with instruction but is illegible due to wear, herringbone-shaped cut-outs below that expose some of the mechanisms of the projector, next to these cut-outs is where the power cord connects to the projector, and towards the front of the projector is another cord that becomes wire that is wrapped around a smaller spool. Along the back side, in raised letters, text reads “APOLLO [vertical] SOUND [horizontal]”. On the very back of the projector are two switches and a black knob that props the back of the projector up slightly. The other side of the projector is the same raised text that reads “APOLLO [vertical] SOUND [horizontal]” near the back, and there is also a a sloped pattern cut-out near the bottom that exposes the fan of the projector. This side features the main part of the projector with the lens, reels, and the track for the film. The top of the projector features a handle-like design.

Abstract
As the flames playing about the burning driftwood logs weave together many beautiful shades and colorings, so in this collection of verse, the author presents many delightful phases of fancy and imagination, skilful tone-colorings and word melodies. Mrs. Mackay has a sensitive ear for the music of words and an instinctive feeling for rhythm. She has both imagination and humor, and a keen appreciation of the wonderful and the beautiful. Many of the lyrics in this collection have a universal emotional appeal while others reproduce with accuracy and fidelity a distinctively Canadian background and atmosphere. The author's many admirers will eagerly welcome this volume. -- From interior dust jacket
