There the story unfolds, after the manner of Fannie Hurst. Sticking as close to life, strug- gling life, as a man’s skin sticks to his own body, the author follows this girl in quest of her shining destiny. From radiant and steady star to star- dust the aim lowers. The common story of reach too short for the vis- fon. A hard road to travel is the road in the big city even for a living, t sav pothing of an exalted Oareef. And the author misses ndne of the hardness of this road. A poignant story, that passes from the hope of personal success to that of vicarious fame by way of the little daughter that that hateful honeymoon had be- queathed her. And even this fades when the girl under the urge of life seems about to yield up the glorious voice to the ravages of marriage— with the man who had, a week before, loved her mother. Sordid? Maybe so. characterization the author what appears to be a fair mind. A Not all the great men come out here great. Lord Fisher does—and that rejoices this reader. You will be glad to pay tribute to the splendid war service of some of these—Lord Rhondda, Lord Inverforth and Lord Haldane, that maligned and traduced man. A most enjoyable hour goes by in the company of these tre- mendous forces in English life. IMMIGRATION AND THE FUTURE. By Frances Kellor, author of “Out of Work,” etc. New York: George H. Doran Company. A distinctly practical book on the outstatding subject of immigration. Granting that a new day has opened for this matter, the author reviews the history of the immigrant in Ameria up to the present. What the govermment, as such, has done for the immigrant, what he has done for him- =elf, what the home countries have done for him since his emigration— these are set down here. From this point the author looks toward the fu- ture, to discover if the immigrant is adds | T OCIAL WELFARE LIBRARY— COMMUNITY ORGANIZATION.

By Herbert Adams Gibbons, author of “The Founda- tion of the Ottoman Empire,” etc. Boston: Houghton Miflin Com- ‘pany. ‘The story of Eleutherios Venizelos is inseparable from that of modern Greece itself, for the hisfory of his country played equal part with the blood of his ancestors in the making of this Greek statesman. Mr. Gib- bons, therefore, in this study of the man himself, sets the whole situation of modern Greece as the fleld of his activity and power. Freedom from the Turk, general independence, the achievement of a full nationalism, a recognized internationalism — these are the ways along which the path of Venizelos runs in this intimate and discriminating study. From boyhood to the time of the peace conference, the account moves; through the Cretan agitation and the Balkan wars, through a_complete in- ternal reorganization of Greece and the entrance of the country into the great war itself—Venizelos an im- pressive and _influential figure throughout. More than one book on wvital matters of the eastern hemi- ephere attest already to the standing of Mr. Gibbons as authority on these matters. A vigorous and direct man. ner goes along with the knowledge and the seasoned judgment. The book in hand is the first in a modern statesman series that these publish- ers are projecting. THE LIFE OF JOSEPH .HODGES CHOATE. By Edward Sandford Martin. New York: Charles Scrib- ner’s Sons. Happily, this biography is achieved, in the main, by way of Mr. Choate’ own letters. It has, therefore, the im- mediate appeal of the autobiography. And, as e matter of fact, a part of the story was written by Mr. Choate himself, its continuation and con- clusion being made’by means of his correspondence. The® early days at 8alem, at Harvard, in New York, are| filled with experiences that stand as a part of our historic setting. The Professional career of Mr. Choate is reviewed in these letters through the record of many a celebrated case at law, since incorporated as a part of American jurisprudence. His ambas- sadorship to the court of St. James produces most interesting and inform- ing chapters in these letters. The whbole is of the genial nature of the man himsel?, of his.wit, of his wis- dom. The book is no more for the special reader—the lawyer, the dip- lomat—than it is for the great body of common readers who will take & personal pride in this eminent Ameri- can through the reading of this infor- mal and friendly story. To present a picture of such unity and continuity an admirable discrimination must have gone into the seléction and ar- rangement of the letters that make up this notable book. THE PEOPLE OF MEXICO. By Wal lace Thompson. New York: Har- per & Bros. Mr. Thompson, out of many years of study among the Mexican people, be- lieves that the answer to Mexico—to its unrest, its turmoil, its lack of na- tional sense—lies in the warring ra- cia] elements of the people them- selves, a struggle that will yield to the slow processes of evolution alone. ‘This book submits the evidence upon which this belief is founded. Who are the Mexican people? In answer the author traces the Mexican today 'k to his racial roots. The foun: tion of this people is Indian. And here the author portrays the old In- dian civilizations—Maya, Toltec, Az- tec and so on—and sets down as well the great body of uncivilized native Indians of this region. To the lat- ter was added the Spanish strain. From these two came the mestizo. the half-breed, or blend of the two..It is the incompleteness of the blend, the hostile elements striving in the indi. the back. tional sense. To this view of the situation the euthor adds a very full and painstaking description of the way the Mexican lives—this con- tributory, also, to the present unde- wveloped state of Mexico in any na- tional sense. In this picture one sees the sum of daily Mexican life—the climate. community life and its gov- emm.nh religion. education, housing and tation, the conditions of la- bor and cost of living. The book is a fresh approach to the problem of Mexico.- It is & ughgoing and scholarly piece of work. It is a theory that the study itself supports. A markedly worth-while consideration. IN RED AND GOLD. By m_lfir— ‘win, author of “Hills of Han," etc. Tiustrated by Cyrus Leroy Bald- ridge. Indianapolis: The Bobbs- Merrill Company. A dig and robust tionary China, as fine an invention even as Mr. Merwin’s “Hills of Han." The two novels together, through the medium of their common hero, Griggsby Doane, serve to produce as feeling and intelligent an interpre. tation of this ancient as_on¢ will come upon in many a day. How- ever, it is pure story, a most plo- turesque adventure, clean-cut in line, tense in situation, graceful and de! in {its softer tones. Griggsby Doane is a man worth knowing, quits able to dominate and shape the two romances that he fills so completely in these t'genovle&.ll by Mr. Merwin. There is a beaut romance here— the hero and the of revolu- new attitude of Europe toward emi- gration, going to show that the dfy of free moving about for homé- seekers is over and that hereafter nations will take a hand to secure for themselves certain advantages that may accrue from an intelligent plan- ning of the emigration question. The book is timely. It is clear and above all practical. It is not a big book. In a word, its characteristics are such as to direct it to the many people Who are giving beclouded influence to the present discussion of the immigration problem. THE TRUE STORY OF THE EM- PRESS EUGENIE. By Count de Soissons. Illustrated. New York: John Lane Company. This vivacious story is intended to give not only a picture of the Em- press Eugenie, but a picture of the court of Louis Napoleon, as well. It is a vivid story from which the au- thor appears to have made few ex- clusions. A personal account of the woman, the beautiful, gifted, capri- cious woman, stands as the sum of this work, together with an account of a pleasure-loving court. A spright- ly gossiping book that makes one marvel at the patience .of the French in tolerating the futilities that passed as the government of a great people. Even the one illusion of Eugenie's devotion to her son. appears to fall by the way here. A selfish woman— is the sum of this picturing. A book of clever turns of gossip about a famous situation and personnel. BOOKS RECEIVED. A TRUE ACCOUNT OF THE BATTLE OF JUTLAND, MAY 31, 1916. By Thomas G. Frothingham, captain, U. 8.

More Truth Than | The Program of 1921 Is the Pledge of 1900 New York AUTOMATIC GAS WATER HEATER Most miles per dollar 1s the pledge of service on which the structure of the Firestone Organization was reared. It is beyond any fluctu- ating policy and is bigger than any program. This explains the rally of new dealers everywhere to the Firestone standard. They who have weathered the recent difficult period are determined to play safe in the future. They are wide awake to the value in Firestone stability. They want the Firestone strength behind them. They know that the pledge of most miles per dollar is much more than a slogan—it is a guiding principle which has en- abled the Firestone Organ- ization to grow steadily and surely: to accumulate the fund of resources which is a tower of strength in time of trouble. Most miles per dollar outlasts temporary business changes and means more than a sale of miles—it means friends for the Firestone representative— it makes him a dealer in security.
