A CITY WITHOUT VICE, ON THE SURFACE Chiet of Police Hart ia of the opinion there is no open vice in the city. The chiet ought to know. Certainly it is true that the old conditions of legalized vice through raids and fines no longer exists. 8in is no longer allowed to flaunt its lures into the faces of citizens and tha indirectly legalized variety has been well nigh annihilated, But that is not eaying that im morality no longer exists. That is a different matter entirely. Vice has merely changed its methods. In- stead af being a regular recognized business it has become a bootlcgging business, working in an underhanded manner and for the most part secure from legal interference because of {he subterranean methods employed.

OF THE U A HALF-CE / | We learn from the authority of | the Stamford that after April 15, when a woman in answer Advocate to an advertisement which says an article costs 1212 cents, goes to the the article, she the odd half medium of a store to purchase will be able | penny through to pay the half-cent stamp. ‘The aystem of issuing half cent astamps may thus have some uses not suspected aince the postal increase law was passed recently. But it ap- pears the Stamford paper does not that some storekeepers may not wish to accept half-cent stamps, a&nd cannot he compelled to do #o. Goods are aold for money, not postage stamps, al- though firms receiving through the mails usvally are satis- ameunts in take into consideration money fied to recelve small stamps. The main function of the half- cent stamp will be to cover the use of unsealed envelopes containing printed matter. These will cost 11 cents after April 15. To send them through the mails, however, it will be necessary to pay two cents, the | postal clerk returning the change tn a half-cent stamp.

(Copyright, 1925, Reproduction Forbidden.) AT YOUR LIBRARY ,Golng abroad? Wouldn't it be fun to take that long planned for trip this summer? At least making definite plans would make it so much easier to get on without chocolate sundaes and all the other pleasant non-essentials which stand in the way of a really worth while vacation, Even If it can’t possibly be this year, it would be almost as good as getting away to dream a Jittle about where one would go. It wouldn't be a conventional Cook’s tour and it would be leisurely, with delightful little exploratory trips into quaint places far from the usual tourist track. ‘Wanderlust Books Such as are described in “Shack- leton's Unvisited Places of Old Eu- rope.”” The author's gay humorous account is almost as good as a trip and inspires one to begin one's own adventuring immediately. Then there is a charming book about Roumania by E. O. Hoppe called “Gipsy Camp and Royal Palace.” The writer sees everything through the eyes of an artist and brings back some of the picturesque beauty of a little known ceuntry in the form of beautiful photographs all through the delightfully written text. Or there s Bohemia as seen by Jullus Street in his “East of Prague,” which is one of the most sympathetic accounts of the new Czecho-Slovaklan republic, “Two Vagabonds in the Balkans” by Gor- don is an account of a most uncon- ventional trip described with an eye for tragi-comic experiences and picturesque personages which makes it thoroughly entertaining reading. “Mediterranean Cruise” by Rolland Jenkins suggests the attractions one mustn't miss in Spain. Gjbraltar, that fascinatingly indefinite region, the Riviera, and the ancient lands of Greece, Palestine and Egypt. One 1is inspired to seek the un- usual in the opposite end of Europe by Robert Medill's little book about “Sweden and Its People.”” This is a cross between an orthodox travel book and a guidebook and equally pleasant in either capacity. Then if one's regard for judgment of past travellers makes at least a glimpse of London, Paris and Rome a neces- sity, there are any number of voi- umes to illumine the pathway, In i(art by a judicious perusal of such | informative and absorbing works as Clara Laughlin's “So You're Go- ing to Parls,” and B. V. Lucas’ “Wanderer in Venice” and compan- jon writings, one may disglay all the erudition of thg much travelled without going into bankruptey. Before You Sail But if by dint of past thrift and future optimism you are planning to actually brave the terrors of the sea and the temptations of Euro- pean shops you will find an epor- mous number of fascinating but | technical detalls to attend to. Rolfe's “Satchel Guide to FEurope” has been recently revised and is a sort of combination guldebook and per- sonal adviser. There is information about what to wear, planning tours, getting money changed, when to see what and all the rest, There is also the rather unusual addition of a suggested reading list. This includes books about the past and present of each country and also about its art. “Planning a Trip Abroad” by Ed- ward Hungerford is aiso new and practical for the beginning travel- ler. . Cathedrals and Art Galleries Can you imagine a European trip without days of faithfully “doing famous pictures?” It is a process which even the most avowedly un- artistic go through dutifully, It is quite amazing the difference that & Jittle cramming in the Icisure of oneg home will make in the genu- inencss of one's uppreciation, For instance going through Caffin's “How to Study Pictures” will give one an excellent notion of the whole sweep of art as it has devcloped through the centuries, For some- thing a little more advanced one should consult Faurc's new ‘‘His- tory of Art” and Neuhaus' “Appre- ciation of Art.’ Lucas in his peren- nially delightful role of guide is es- pecially successful in his beauti- fully illustrated “Wander Among n to look at buildings with a more appreciative and discerning eye one should read Hamlin's “En- { joyment of Architecture,” Gostling's ! “Lure of English Cathedrals” and her: Stalned Giass Tours in | ¥rance” will help particularly in | enjoying cathedrals. And books on works of individual artists are ! numerous and beautifully illus- trated. Literary Landmarks 1f one s going abroad to worship | at tne shrine of a favorite author {here are any number of books to point the avay. For instance there is the “London of Dickens,” the “Kip- Jing Country,” “Browning’s Italy,” “Bronte Moors and “Villages” to mentlon just a few. And even if | there isn't 'a whole book about & person, there Is sure-to be a refer- ence in some. Wwriting about his should guide or litterateur, NEW 300KS BORNEO, S#WALER O HEARTS, by Oscar Cook.
