Back to St Austin's College for twelve short stories, eleven of which had appeared in The Captain and The Public School Magazine. Charteris appears again. In fact The Manoeuvres of Charteris (forty-three pages) may have been the start of a notional novel, with the Headmaster's twelve-year-old niece Dorothy as heroine to Charteris's hero. The book ends with five essaylets from The Public School Magazine.
