TAX LEVIES Bt SCHOOL DISTRICTS FOR THE YEAR 1925.
Very Exciting and Very Entertaining
/
By George Ethelbert Walsh
NEARLY every person fond of romantic literature likes a good sea story; but a majority of the writers of
today seem to think that modern conditions have taken all the romance out of the seas. This author proves the
contrary. The impulse to piracy is just as strong as it ever was, and the fact that it gets fewer opportu n'ties
to manifest itself does not put it entirely out of consideration as a basis for a good story. Wrecks, mutinies,
kidnappings and lootings which formed so large a part of the old tales of the sea are not by any means impos
sible or improbable in our present so-called enlightened age.
THE NAME VALHALLA, suggests an agreeable
place. This one is. It is a small privately owned island,
the winter home of a millionaire, in the subtropical re
gions of the Atlantic ocean. The pirates of the story are
mostly of the Wall Street financial sort. The gold for
which they fight is buried in the vaults of New York’s
financial district. The ship involved is not one of the
low, rakish crafts of old flying the Jolly Roger, but is a
modern, palatial private yacht. And the crew is not en
tirely composed of cutthroats. There is a kidnapping^ The
millionaire and his daughter are the victims of the in
dignity. All might have gone well with the plotters had
it not been for the presence of a stowaway aboard tne
yacht.
THE STOWAWAY is quite the most interesting
person in the narrative. He is lazily fishing from a
dock when the yacht took anchorage nearby. Something
familiar and at the same time peculiar about the ship
engaged his attention. A chance meeting with .some
of her passengers further arose his curiosity and de
cided him that there might be an adventure aboard. He
took quarters on her without being invited and without
his presence being suspected. He was in time to prevent
a murder, a very sizable looting and several minor but
sinister designs. He found a whole set of adventures.
They came to him with such a rush that he hacLdrffi-
culty in taking care of them. Strenuous as his experi
ence was, it wound up very pleasantly in a happy love
romance and the recovery of a fortune which his pater
nal ancestors h&d intended for him, but which had been
wrested from said ancestor before he had opportunity
to bequeath it. - -
IF YOU HAVE read any of the Western stories,
sea stories, boys’ stories, animal stories, etc., wfttten by
GEORGE ETHELBERT WALSH, you know that
something distinctly exciting and agreeable is to be ex
pected. ^He has turned out upward of tw r enty books and
more than sixty magazine serials dealing with outdoor
life and adventures. His tales-are clever, entertaining
and satisfying.
