The presentation is as clear cut and faithful as a sound picture of the actual migration would have been, and in no instance has historical. truth been glossed over or subdued in any manner in order that the reader might be spared. The manner in which the party was led to traverse the tragic Hastinto Sierras snow trap, work is an PaAtLys ings “short cut.” the killing of young Snyder by James Reed and the splendidly heroic manner in which the outeast Reed redeemed himself, the cannibalism both at Donner Lake and along the _ pass leading out to the valley of the Sacramento,.are set forth in all of their vividness and soddenness. One touch of particular interest concerns the participation of Selim Woodworth, son of Samuel Woodworth, composer of “The Old Oaken Bucket” in the heartbreaking and man-killing resattemps, but Woodworth’s act‘vities, according to the volume, left much ‘to be desired. eue ARMAND NEW SYMPHONIE BLENDED CREAM AN ALL PURPOSE CREAM i 20c, 50c, 75c, $1.00 ALSO ARMAND NEW WIND BLOWN ROSES—FACE POWDER 50c, $1.00 CHAMBERLAINS » LOTION 4 Oz. 50c These are the products endorsed by Mrs. Jane Barton.
