"The Mentor," March 1928 issue. The periodical has a gold leaf-and-vine design within a blue-colored background border and the words "SCIENCE;" "TRAVEL;" "ART;" "HISTORY;" "LITERATURE" in scrolls placed within these designs.

An image, in blue and gold, of a Royal Canadian Mounted Police on horseback and amidst a mountainous scene, takes up much of the cover.

Articles are about such topics as the Royal Canadian Mounted Police; the intelligence of dogs; long-distance running Indians of Mexico; Indian relations with the mounted police in Canada; cultures in Saudi Arabia, Africa, and Taiwan; the Mongol rulers Genghis and Kublai Khan; and the Persian poet Omar Khayyam and his masterpiece, the "Rubaiyat."
