We would like to make the following comments on some of the more outstandfng books which we have reviewed. -Virginia Inman, 44 Exchange Editor The North Star , Houlton High School, Houlton, Maine.

The Sokokis Warrior , Limington Academy, Limington, Maine. Your year book shows harda work and is an excellent mimeograph job. Wouldn't more pictures add to your year book? Your Let- ters from the Boys in the Service and Address Section w-ere very interesting. The Muse , Corinna Union Academy, Corinna, Maine. Why not enlarge your Literary Depart- ment?
