THE REWARD OF BRAVERY.
Steadily the _Sylph_ continued her homeward journey. She passed several
vessels, all flying the British flag, and, in lieu of wireless, her
ensigns many times were dipped in passing salute.
At length the little scout cruiser docked in the exact spot where the
boys had gone aboard her the night they put forth for the North Sea.
Upon Lord Hastings' request, which was almost in the nature of a
command, Frank and Jack, as well as Alice Beulow, agreed to go with the
British nobleman to his beautiful and spacious dwelling.
"My home is yours," Lord Hastings told them. "You shall stay there
always when in London."
Arrived in London, Lord Hastings' large automobile was telephoned for,
and several hours later Frank and Jack found themselves once more
installed in the pretentious quarters where they had first talked over
their plans of going to war.
Lord Hastings, still somewhat feeble because of his illness, was
immediately ordered to bed by his physician, who prescribed rest and
plenty of it.
"You will be all right in a week," was his comforting verdict.
As Frank, Jack and Alice were dining with their hostess that evening, a
huge motor-car drove up to the house. A footman jumped to the car and
opened the door, and there stepped from within a tall man with a full
beard. The footman bowed low, and the visitor, alone, made his way up
the steps and into the house. A moment later he was escorted to Lord
Hastings' chamber.
This unceremonious entrance none of the diners saw, but the two boys
were made aware of it a short time later. A butler entered the
dining-room with word that Lord Hastings desired the presence of Frank
and Jack at once.
The two lads followed the servant to Lord Hastings' chamber, where the
visitor sat near the nobleman's bedside. Both lads stopped stock still
in the doorway, the utmost surprise manifested on their faces. They had
recognized Lord Hastings' visitor.
Lord Hastings raised himself upon one elbow.
"Your Majesty," he said, "allow me to present to you, Midshipman Frank
Chadwick and Midshipman John Templeton, to whom Your Majesty, upon my
request, was so good as to grant commissions only a short time ago. They
have proven that Your Majesty has no braver officers in his entire
navy!"
Both boys bowed very low, for Lord Hastings' visitor was none other than
George V., King of England.
The king smiled pleasantly.
"Lord Hastings, my cousin and good friend," he said, "has spoken of your
bravery in glowing terms. I know that he has not praised you too highly.
Come, sirs, tell me, what do you think of life on the sea under the Lion
of England?"
"There could be none better, Your Majesty," replied Jack.
"Indeed there could not, Your Majesty," said Frank.
"Well," said the king pleasantly, "I see that you are fond of the life
of midshipmen. What would you say to accepting, in exchange,
lieutenancies in the Royal Navy?"
Jack's surprise was so great that he was unable to utter a word. His
face turned red, and he hung his head as would a small boy caught in
some mischief.
Frank was equally as astonished.
"I--we--I----" he stammered.
The king laughed outright, and Lord Hastings smiled faintly.
"You may make sure, sirs," continued King George, "that you shall
receive your commissions as fourth lieutenants in the British navy
before another sun has set! You may go!"
Here is the fitting place to take leave, for the time being, of
Midshipman Frank Chadwick and Midshipman John Templeton, of the Royal
British Navy; here is the time to say a brief farewell to the two
gallant lads whose adventures we have followed through these pages, for
the final chapter in the lives of Frank Chadwick and Jack Templeton, as
British midshipmen, has been written--though not the last chapter of
their adventures in the greatest war of all history. The King of England
kept his royal word and on the day following the boys' brief interview
with him they were duly commissioned Lieutenant Frank Chadwick and
Lieutenant John Templeton.
So their further adventures and achievements, in a different capacity,
but in the same cause, and under the same brave and gallant commander,
Lord Hastings, will be duly chronicled in a second volume, entitled:
"The Boy Allies Under Two Flags; or, Sweeping the Enemy from the Sea."

The AMY E. BLANCHARD Series
MISS BLANCHARD has won an enviable reputation as a writer of short
stories for girls. Her books are thoroughly wholesome in every way and
her style is full of charm. The titles described below will be splendid
additions to every girl's library. Handsomely bound in cloth, full
library size. Illustrated by L. J. Bridgman. Price, 60 cents per volume,
postpaid.
The Glad Lady. A spirited account of a remarkably pleasant vacation
spent in an unfrequented part of northern Spain. This summer, which
promised at the outset to be very quiet, proved to be exactly the
opposite. Event follows event in rapid succession and the story ends
with the culmination of at least two happy romances. The story
throughout is interwoven with vivid descriptions of real places and
people of which the general public knows very little. These add
greatly to the reader's interest.
Wit's End. Instilled with life, color and individuality, this story of
true love cannot fail to attract and hold to its happy end the
reader's eager attention. The word pictures are masterly; while the
poise of narrative and description is marvellously preserved.
A Journey of Joy. A charming story of the travels and adventures of two
young American girls, and an elderly companion in Europe. It is not
only well told, but the amount of information contained will make it a
very valuable addition to the library of any girl who anticipates
making a similar trip. Their many pleasant experiences end in the
culmination of two happy romances, all told in the happiest vein.
Talbot's Angles. A charming romance of Southern life. Talbot's Angles
is a beautiful old estate located on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.
The death of the owner and the ensuing legal troubles render it
necessary for our heroine, the present owner, to leave the place which
has been in her family for hundreds of years and endeavor to earn her
own living. Another claimant for the property appearing on the scene
complicates matters still more. The untangling of this mixed-up
condition of affairs makes an extremely interesting story.

The Camp Fire Girls Series
By HILDEGARD G. FREY. The only series of stories
for Camp Fire Girls endorsed by the officials of the Camp
Fire Girls Organization. PRICE, 40 CENTS PER VOLUME
THE CAMP FIRE GIRLS IN THE MAINE WOODS; or, The Winnebagos go Camping.
This lively Camp Fire group and their Guardian go back to Nature in
camp in the wilds of Maine and pile up more adventures in one summer
than they have had in all their previous vacations put together.
Before the summer is over they have transformed Gladys, the frivolous
boarding school girl, into a genuine Winnebago.
THE CAMP FIRE GIRLS AT SCHOOL; or, The Wohelo Weavers.
It is the custom of the Winnebagos to weave the events of their lives
into symbolic bead bands, instead of keeping a diary. All commendatory
doings are worked out in bright colors, but every time the Law of the
Camp Fire is broken it must be recorded in black. How these seven live
wire girls strive to infuse into their school life the spirit of Work,
Health and Love and yet manage to get into more than their share of
mischief, is told in this story.
THE CAMP FIRE GIRLS AT ONOWAY HOUSE; or, The Magic Garden.
Migwan is determined to go to college, and not being strong enough to
work indoors earns the money by raising fruits and vegetables. The
Winnebagos all turn a hand to help the cause along and the "goings-on"
at Onoway House that summer make the foundations shake with laughter.
THE CAMP FIRE GIRLS GO MOTORING; or, Along the Road That Leads the Way.
The Winnebagos take a thousand mile auto trip. The "pinching" of
Nyoda, the fire in the country inn, the runaway girl and the
dead-earnest hare and hound chase combine to make these three weeks
the most exciting the Winnebagos have ever experienced.
