T hey have been gathered from the pages of Toronto Saturday Night and are here reprinted, through the courtesy of the publisher and editor, with such additions and alterations as have been suggested by the in creasing years and Wisdom of the writer - and the removal of the censorship. And they are dedicated to those two splendid and, long-suffer ing friends, - Constant Reader and Old Sub scriber, by their very grateful liegeman, the author.
