OUTDOOR SIGNALLING, by Elbert Wells. Mr. 
Wells has perfected a method of signalling by means of wig-wag, 
light, smoke, or whistle which is as simple as it is effective. The 
fundamental principle can be learnt in ten minutes and its applica- 
tion is far easier than that of any other code now in i^se. It permits 
also the use of cipher and can be adapted to almost any imaginable 
conditions of weather, light, or topography. 
“/ find it to be the simplest and most practical book on 
signalling published . ” — Frank H. Schrenk , Director of 
Camp Belgrade . 
“ One of the finest things of the kind I have ever seen . / 
believe my seven year old boy can learn to use this system , 
and I know that we will find it very useful here in our 
Boy Scout work.” — Lyman G. Haskell , Physical Direc- 
tor, T . M. C. A. t Jacksonville , Fla .
