- 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

- 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

He is rescued by a volunteer search party and is carried to the hotel where he is nursed back to health by Rose, the beautiful daughter of old Bill Canon, who soon falls in love with Dominick.

- Abstract
- The main purpose of this book is to furnish the University with a complete war record of the members of the Class. It is, therefore, primarily a statistical record and does not aspire to fill the place of an elaborate Class record such as the Class of 1904 deserves. The quinquennial record was the last book published by the Class and it has been a great disappointment to many of us that a complete record has not appeared since. Let us hope that our twentieth reunion will be productive of the information and enthusiasm as well as the inspired individual necessary for the compiling of such a volume. The Secretary desires to express his thanks to the members of the Class for their co-operation in responding to his requests for the information required for this book. The assistance of Bill Wrightson and his organization have made the completion of the work possible. Faithfully yours, W.A.B., Jr. (from introduction)

- Abstract
- In the old days, the happy days, when Wyoming was a Territory with a future instead of a State with a past, and the unfenced cattle grazed upon her ranges by prosperous thousands, young Lin McLean awaked early one morning in cow camp, and lay staring out of his blankets upon the world. He would be twenty-two this week. He was the youngest cow-puncher in camp. But because he could break wild horses, he was earning more dollars a month than any man there, except one. The cook was a more indispensable person. None save the cook was up, so far, this morning. Lin's brother punchers slept about him on the ground, some motionless, some shifting their prone heads to burrow deeper from the increasing day. The busy work of spring was over, that of the fall, or beef round-up, not yet come. It was mid-July, a lull for these hard-riding bachelors of the saddle, and many unspent dollars stood to Mr. McLean's credit on the ranch books. So begins Lin McLean, the 1898 novel by Owen Wister (1860-1938), a writer best known as the author of The Virginian. The story of "A Journey in Search of Christmas" is a part of Lin McLean. It was published by Harper & Brothers as a separate book in 1904, illustrated by Frederic Remington. Below is the text of that story and the illustrations. The story of Lin McLean was made into a film in 1918, "A Woman's Fool," directed by John Ford and starring Harry Carey. The film is "presumed lost."
