The strike of printers nnd pressmen
in New York held un the publication of
many books this fall and enused the
temporary suspension of many periodi

n book without tho,,nssiRtnncc of print

sheets of uniform size, with running
titles at the top of each page nnd the
page numbers nt the bottom. Kneh page
wns iueloed In n single line border.
Tllnnk 'spaces were left In which the
drawings for the silhouette Illustrations
were pasted. Then each page wns pho

Austin Ilisliop is the writer of an
other corking good story of wnr aviation
iu "Boh Thorpe, Sky Fighter in the

the romantic highlights of the wnr, just
