Fast Nine or, A Challenge from Fairfield By: Alan Douglas |
---|
![]()
The Hickory Ridge Boy Scouts A SERIES OF BOOKS FOR BOYS Which, in addition to the interesting boy scout stem
by CAPTAIN ALAN DOUGLAS, Scoutmaster, contain articles
on nature lore, native animals and a fund of other
information pertaining to out of door life, that will
appeal to the boy's love of the open.
I. The Campfires of the Wolf Patrol Their first camping experience affords the scouts
splendid opportunities to use their recently acquired
knowledge in a practical way. Elmer Chenowith, a lad
from the northwest woods, astonishes everyone by his
familiarity with camp life. A clean, wholesome story
every boy should read.
II. Woodcraft; or, How a Patrol Leader Made Good This tale presents many stirring situations in which
some of the boys are called upon to exercise all their
ingenuity and unselfishness. A story filled with
healthful excitement.
III. Pathfinder; or, The Musing Tenderfoot Some mysteries are cleared up in a most unexpected
way, greatly to the credit of our young friends. A
variety of incidents follow fast, one after the other.
IV. Fast Nine; or, a Challenge From Fairfield They show the same team work here as when in camp. The
description of the final game with the team of a rival
town, and the outcome thereof, form a stirring
narrative. One of the best baseball stories of recent
years.
V. Great Hike; or, The Pride of The Khaki Troop After weeks of preparation the scouts start out on
their greatest undertaking. Their march takes them far
from home, and the good natured rivalry of the
different patrols furnishes many interesting and
amusing situations.
VI. Endurance Test; or, How Clear Grit Won the Day Few stories "get" us more than illustrations of pluck
in the face of apparent failure. Our heroes show the
stuff they are made of and surprise their most ardent
admirers. One of the best stories Captain Douglas has
written.
