Excerpt from The Folk-Lore Record, Vol. 2 I have been asked to contribute a preface to the folk-lore Record, and regret that want of time for due preparation pre vents me from writing anything at all complete or adequate about the objects of the Society. Compelled to be brief, I must select one or two points on which I have already written with, perhaps, damnable iteration. The readers of the Record must pardon me if, like the narrators of the fairy stories we collect and study, I tell a twice-told tale.

Excerpt from The Handbook of Folklore: Society Edition Dr. A. C. Haddon, Dr. R. R. Marett, Dr. W. H. R. Rivers, Dr. C. G. Seligmann, and Mr. W. Crooke have kindly read various portions of the work in ms., and have contributed valuable hints and criticisms. The whole Council of the Folklore Society have had the Opportunity of reading it in proof. Ms. Notes received from these sources are in many cases indicated by initials. But the final responsibility of selection or rejection has rested on my own shoulders, and for whatever flaws or weaknesses may be found in the work, the blame must lie at my door, for I have throughout retained the woman's privilege of the last word. Omissions there doubtless are, but I would ask readers to take the Questionary into consideration before making sure of this in any particular instance. Only the main points of each topic are touched on in the text: the Questionary is designed to supplement it, and to suggest further details in each case.

Excerpt from Readings in Folk-Lore: Short Studies in the Mythology of America, Great Britain, the Norse Countries, Germany, India, Syria, Egypt, and Persia; With Selections From the Standard Literature Relating to the Same This book is intended as a companion volume to the Historical Readings, which has proved so popular as a book of culture for teachers and students; and as the latter is a volume of prose and of recorded fact, this is a book of poems and of popular beliefs. The myths of legend and of pure fable, whether related to false religions or otherwise, are often of great interest to the student and the general reader. So interwoven are the faith and the folk-lore of a people with its literature and art that an acquaintance with its mythology is necessary to an understanding of its higher expressions of thought and feel ing. Such knowledge is highly essential to the teacher. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The American School Readers: Third Reader The subject matter has four chief elements: folklore and fairy story, historical stories, nature stories, and poems. The folklore and fairy stories are full of interest to children; they have humor and are decidedly ethical. The offensive stories of wicked relatives are omitted, as being immoral in their tendency. In their place are tales of enterprise and of common life which have become classics, and which tend to elevate the minds and characters of children. Historical stories are valuable at this age, because, while children are interested in fairy tales, they are also interested in real people, and this interest should be fostered in the school readers; so we have stories of Washington, of Lincoln, of Charlemagne, and of other historical characters, all by standard authors.

Excerpt from Myths and Legends Beyond Our Borders Has been an incentive to continue the work in the same field, and herewith is offered a volume of tra dition from Canada and Mexico, thus covering the North American continent. A need of brevity has made it advisable to keep to the method fol lowed in Myths and Legends of Our Own Land, of assembling traditions that attach to places, rather than attempting to set forth the almost exhaustless, always verbose, and sometimes childish folk-lore of the aborigines. Simple people, red people, and habitants, not readers, not logicians, not examiners, accept these tales from their old men and treasure them. Others may find amusement in them, and perhaps profit; for, ingenuous as they are, they. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Folk-Lore Record, Vol. 3: Part II There was once an Old woman who left her daughter at home to get dinner ready when she went to church. On coming back She found nothing in order, and her daughter crying by the fireplace. Heyday! What now? Said the incomer.

Excerpt from Story-Land Dramatic Reader Some of the stories in this book have been known in narrative form to generations of American boys and girls. Others have been known and loved by many more generations of children in far-off lands and times. They have been gathered from the child lore of the world. In an effort to appeal to the many different interests found in the average class, a great variety of story types has been included in this little book. Some of the stories belong to the more primitive, the simplest, form of folk-tales, others are more complex in thought and plot. None are beyond third-year children. Every story has been dramatized, read, and retold by the pupils in several schools. The simpler stories are to be read and passed over. Some of the others may well be worked over and presented as finished plays in the school-room or for more formal entertainments.

Excerpt from Shetland Folk-Lore Islands has been largely used throughout to give the necessary local colouring, but the author thinks that this will not cause the southern reader any very serious diffi culty, as in most cases explanations of the words have been supplied. If the writer succeeds in interesting those who take pleasure in recalling the old times and the old manners, and in stimulating any of his readers to join in the work of rescuing our island traditions ere they fade away into obscurity, he will consider him self amply rewarded. The author desires here to acknowledge his indebtedness to James M. Goudie, Esq., Lerwick, for valuable assistance rendered in writing the chapter on Prehistoric Remains and to the Rev. Thomas Mathewson, Lerwick, and J. J. Haldane Burgess, Esq., m.a., Lerwick, for many helpful suggestions and much assistance given while the book was passing through the press.
