THE ANGLER'S WORKSHOP 
Rodmaking for Beginners 
By PERRY D. FRAZER 
A UNIQUE work, bringing the science of rodmaking up to the very moment and 
epitomizing the knowledge and experience of experts for the guidance of the 
average man. The evolution of bait-casting principles has made Mr. Frazer’s book 
supersede all previous publications on the subject. 
Every angler—young or old—who is fond of adapting his rods and tackle to his own 
ideas of what they should be, will find in this book a large fund of information gathered 
by the author in years of study, experiment and practical experience in fishing, tournament 
casting and at the work bench. He theorizes jjid speculates not at all. He tells “the 
how” of everything connected with rodmaking in a way that makes results certain. All 
explanations are simple and easily followed. 
Separate chapters are devoted to each of a half dozen types of bait-casting rods; to 
tarpon, surf and light salt water rods; bass and trout, salmon and tournament fly-rods. 
Complete specifications of well known types are given, and the chapter on split bamboo 
rodmaking is the most comprehensive treatise on the subject ever published. Indispen- ^

THE JACK SERIES 
Best Books For Boys 
By GEORGE BIRD GRINNELL 
T he solution of the parents’ problem of providing for the growing boy reading at once healthy and 
satisfying to his craving for action and adventure. In the Jack Books the longing of the normal 
boy for Western stories is gratified, the interest is absorbed and the mind is unconsciously led to 
phases of life that are elevating and instructive. 
The books are the story of a young New York lad, sent to Stillwater ranch in the Rockies for his 
health, who becomes the companion of a veteran of the frontier. For each of six succeeding years he is 
led through new territory and experiences, accumulating much of the lore of plain and mountain, enriched 
with tales of the old West. 
Ranch life, travel and hunting on the lonely plains, Indian camps, mountain 
climbing, trapping and canoeing are described. There is not a dull page, and 
the author manages to put much oi the spirit of the West into his books.. Jack 
is a real boy, and the books are stories for live boys—not lectures in disguise.
