# June 1920 Blue Book Magazine

This issue features "The Blue Ghost" by H. Bedford-Jones as its lead novelette—a dramatic tale of tiger-hunting and man-hunting in China, involving a "fiendish traffic" threatening the Chinese race. The magazine also contains eleven shorter stories by named authors including Edwin Balmer ("The Kick of Kismet," involving lost identity), Chester T. Crowell ("The Boll-Weevil Orator," about Senator Logwood), and Edison Marshall ("For Postmortem Perusal," featuring convention delegate Horace). Additional stories cover diverse subjects: a mongrel dog ("Blink"), German spy sabotage ("Deep Water Men"), moral reformation ("Antonio"), Wall Street schemes, and Mexican bandit action. Two serials run: "Behind the Closed Door" by George Barton, detailing mystery and intrigue at a banking firm on Thanksgiving Eve, and "Cross Currents," concluding a Wall Street and Wyoming novel.
