ELLEN GLASGOW, iiiiiuiiy (he established novelists of out
' country, easily stancL in the front rank, says Tlu orth
American Review. "None of the modern inducements to gain
popularity by "lowering her own tine standards of what the novel
is and should be, have corrupted her."
Her first novel in more than three years,, this is. Miss Glasgow's com
ment on the changed currents of American life. With an aitist's hCrutinv,
she has probed its depths, and has seen Ametica knitting together into
a unity of jdeals.
This vision colors and makes blight the book, although the individuals
,iri it, those who build their Ark for the New Era, amid the scorn and sus
picions of the onlookers, have their burden of misunderstandings to bear.
In ihe powerful drawing of "'the bi'ilder," and in the poignant realiza
tion of his tragedy. Miss Glasgow's achievement is great.
But greater still is the mercilessly truthful portrait of the woman, his
wife, who, clothing her little spirit in the appearances of virtue, deceives
" the coarse vision ot the world.

Fleeing from an irate and disapproving brother, she
stepped into a taxi, and behold! there was a young
man ready to do battle for her, with no questions
asked.
And when the Cab whirled them away, leaving
Percy in the middle of Piccadilly with a broken silk
hat, there began one of the most amusing adventures
that' ever outraged English high society a rollicking
tale filled with surprising incidents.
PELHAM GRENVILLE WODEHOUSE,
widely known as the author of "Uneasy
Money" and "Something New," has here
compounded the perfect prescription for
romantic comedy.

Rhymes for Young Folks
rnrtunntely for tlie writers of ersi
for children the joung are not critical.
If the rh.viui'M jingle and tell a storj the)
ii r i usually satistieil. Hut the childrc'ti
aru tolerant of literal-) ctcelhnci
Hencii they like Stevenson.
They will also like Mary Carolyn
Davis, who hau'written ll lot of rhymes
which bavi! the Stevensouian quullty
added to u quality of their own. Miss,
Davis gets the child s point of view und,
iu two or four lines she exhibits it so
clearly as to surprise and charm the
adull. Her book is about "A Little
rrcelded Person," and purports to be u
reconl of impressions und reflections.
Hero is what appears under the title
"Perhaps:"
You never know, In this great world,
what wonders there may be
Perhaps them's burled treasure out bo
neath tho cherry tree !
Every oue intimate with children is
fuinillur with tho point of view in this
bit: ,
Of course I bellevo, in fairies'
Of course I lmow they're true '
Just think, if you were a fairy
And no one belleyed In you !
These samples Rive u taste of the
qualit) of the book.
Eleanor Ellin Perkins in'Nevvs from
Notovvn," has written verse ot a very
different kind which will please the
youiiE almost as much as Miss Davis's
beautiful rhymes. It Is about wlmt
.liff) Welhi ,suw and beuril in Notovvn
He tells how tlie Notovvn bean tried
to stay to dinner, and what happened
when the lllggs foolishly attempt to
flianife the mind of a settlug hen, and
the remarks ol an organ grimier, now a
well-known desperado is deprived of
anticipated punishment and many other
inlerestini: and exciting things.

CONSCIOUS GUIDANCE AND CONTROL IN DELA
TION TO HUMAN EVOLUTION IN CIVILIZATION
By F. MATHIAS ALEXANDER 'john'dewey
Dr. ROBINSON .sny.s: "I think Air. Alexander's, ability to
struighleii out adulth-and give them new energy and courage is
ery important, but by no meun.v so important aa tlie possible
application of his theories in the field of education, by which it
seems as if it might be possible to raise the whole race to a far
higher plane than it now occupies."
Dr. LI1EKT V. BARNES writest--'Tn the regeneration of Ameri
can institutions which the war has already started, no mora
important movement could be carried out than the adoption
of Mr. Alexander's system as an integraPpart of a national
educational plan."
l'rofeasor RICHARD MORSE 1IODGK, D.D., calls it a "boolc of
basic significance to . . . every .sphere of contemporary
life."
Dr. J. II. JOWKTT endorses it as "a work of rare and original
value." .
"No one interested in human improvement can afford to pais by
this plan without carefully considering its nature and bearings."
