Why doesn't
Your Boy Like
His School

THE average boy hates school.
THe sver no reason for it. He
seldom goes beyond second year
in high school, Fathers, mothers:
what wouldn't you give to show
your boys in a boy-natural way
Just how much school really means
to them! The publishers of The
American Boy assigned William
Heyliger, a favorite writer with
their 500,000 boy readers, to do just
this. After a year spent with prac-
tical educators everywhere he has
written "High Benton", about a
boy who first hated school and why
he came to like it. This great story
starts in the September issue of

AMERICAN BOY

"The Biggest, Brightest, Best Magazine
for Boys in All the World."
It's an entirely different school
story, a fascinating, absorbing
story that your boy will read eager-
ly. He'll live it himself. It puts
school in a new light. Gives him
his bearings on what school really
is for him. You owe it to your
boy's future to put this story in his
hands. School opens in September.
"High Benton" starts with the Sep-
tember American Boy. Buy it at
your news-stand, 20c, or subscribe,
$2 a year.
