"The Laily of the Lake" is a story dealing with the life of King .lames V of Scotlaml, who lived in the Hth century. As a boy King Jartics was under the guardianship of Archibald D"glns, Earl of Angus, who had married his mother. The young king or a 'onK tinM' wished to free him- their captive. He at last escaped to Stroling Castle where he was receiv.nl by the governor, an enemy of che r i , T i. . . Douglas clan. In a short tune so many chieftains joined the king that thcv were able to hanish the f-1 ..f they were able to banish the Earl of Angus to England. Douglas, who.-n , i . . . we reaa 01 in tne poem, is an ima- , nary uncle ot King James, who s seeking refuge on a lonely island in Lack Katrine under the protection of KoaevicK una. uouglass and Kodpr- ick are also fictitious characters. Thy same is true of EllonTho Lady of the Lake Nalcom Greamo, and Al- lonham. The name of th is poem is a sug-- lion of the romantic characters of toe poem.

"The Call of the Wild, by Jack Lon- don, is my favorite book, and in my opinion it could not be surpassed. The author was an American writer wno was thoroughly acquainted with the subjects, scenes and customs of which he wrote. This adds immps- urably to the charm and flavor of the v" ...en. mi story, since a knowledge of the thin.- about which one wishes to write is f-T. J!.,. ..7..!. . - . indpnpnupklo i) iniFs,i o,i color of a Rtbrv whert finished Jack ' - Londdn.. was well versed in nature nna especially docs, which constitute the mnin characters of the book. Thus we have the writer with a thor OUKh ami eompletc knowledge of the subject. Naturally, with an author of the experience, education and vo- cabulary of Mr. London product is bound to be the finished '.rue to life-. vivid and colorful. The plot starts with tne hero a collie dog, Muck, stolen from a peace ful American home by a servant and shipped to Alaska to be sold for a sled dog. As the scene nr.
