THE LITTLE WAs.h.i.+NGTONS SERIES

By LILLIAN ELIZABETH ROY

=Handsomely Bound. Colored Wrappers. Ill.u.s.trated.

For Children 6 to 12 Years.=

This series presents early American history in a manner that impresses the young readers. Because of George and Martha Was.h.i.+ngton Parke, two young descendants of the famous General Was.h.i.+ngton, these stories follow exactly the life of the great American, by means of playing they act the life of the Was.h.i.+ngtons, both in battles and in society.

THE LITTLE WAs.h.i.+NGTONS

Their thrilling battles and expeditions generally end in "punishment"

lessons read by Mrs. Parke from the "Life of Was.h.i.+ngton." The culprits listen intently, for this reading generally gives them new ideas for further games of Indian warfare and Colonists' battles.

THE LITTLE WAs.h.i.+NGTONS' RELATIVES

The Davis children visit the Parke home and join zealously in the games of playing General Was.h.i.+ngton. So zealously, in fact, that little Jim almost loses his scalp.

THE LITTLE WAs.h.i.+NGTONS' TRAVELS

The children wage a fierce battle upon the roof of a hotel in New York City. Then, visiting the Davis home in Philadelphia, the patriotic Was.h.i.+ngtons vanquish the Hessians on a battlefield in the empty lot back of the Davis property.

THE LITTLE WAs.h.i.+NGTONS AT SCHOOL

After the school-house battle the Was.h.i.+ngtons discover a band of gypsies camping near the back road to their homes and incidentally they secure the stolen horse which the gypsies had taken from the "b.u.t.ter and egg farmer" of the Parkes.

THE LITTLE WAs.h.i.+NGTONS' HOLIDAYS

They spend a pleasant summer on two adjoining farms in Vermont. During the voyage they try to capture a "frigate" but little Jim is caught and about to be punished by the Captain when his confederates hasten in and save him.
