The Xext Step in Democracy, by R.
W. Sellars. Ph. D. (MacMillan Com
pany, N. Y., $1.50.)
A discussion of the ever-present
theory of government that we call so
cialism is scarcely profitable without
a working knowledge of what consti
tutes socialism and what its aims and
hopes are. This very necessary infor
mation, essential to a fair-minded crit
icism, is here given in a broad, com
prehensive way by the assistant profes
sor of philosophy at the University of
Michigan. Many will absolutely dis
agree with the opinions advanced and
the deductions reached, but the treat
ment given is extremely Interesting in
his development of the subject.
The author describes socialism as "a
democratic movement whose purpose
is the securing of an economic organi
zation of society which will give the
maximum possible at any one time
of Justice and liberty." He is here de
scribing the ideal condition, but un
fortunately he minimizes the powerful
force of human nature pulling the
other way. He develops the idea of
socialism from the Utopists, who be
lieved in the natural goodness of all
humans and in an artificial environ
ment; through the Marxian school,
which was more practical and bro\ight
the socialists' belief Into direct com
munication with an adaptation to the
working classes connected with large
industries —the realistic stage in other
words; finally to the present stage,
when agitators and educators are both
necessary to the spread of the social
istic propaganda.
The Red Debt, Echoes from Ken
tucky. by Everett Mac Donald. (G. W.
Dillingham Co., 51.25.)
This is an absorbing: story of the
McGills vs. the Lutts, one of the fam
ous old Kentucky feuds. Moonshiners
and revenue men, law-haters and
ruthless slayers keep the action at a
high pitch of excitement. These
rough giants of the hills, with their
own honest but misled conviction of
right and wrong, are an interesting
lot.
The plot deals with the history of
the young Lutts who are determined
to avenge their father's death at the
hands of the revenue man. Little
Belle-Ann Benson, the adopted daugh
ter of "Paw" Lutts, registers a vow
that the man who shall kiss her lips
must first kill the "revenuer." She
loves Lem Lutts and he reciprocates.
However, she goes away to school and
receives a new vision of her duty,
which after a powerful struggle Is also
revealed to Lent. The ending is a
happy one, but the suspense entirely
satisfactory. The power of visualiza
tion in the author's work Is exception
ally good.
The Gate of Asia, by William War
field. (G. P. Putnam's Sons, $2.60.)
The author takes his readers on a geo
graphical Journey from the Persian
Gulf to the Black Sea, recounting in
an interesting fashion his own trip
through the region including Mesopo
tamia, Kurdistan, Armenia, and the
Persian province of Azerbaijan, that
connecting link between the character
istically European nationalities and
the equally characteristic Asiatic races.
All invading armies, all trade routes
from the west that have gone east or
vice versa, have passed through this
country and the author's route cross
ed that of the great Cyrus, of Persia.
Nadir Shah, Xenophon, Alexander the
Great, the Emperor Julian, and other
conquerors.
It is a valuable work for those who
are concerned with ft study of that
particular region, an adequate and
ample view of the commercial relig
ious. civil and martial life and cus
toms of these peoples who live in the
pathway that connects two great con
tinents.

this week, if you stood in line with the
thousands of others to witness the
wonderful parade last Saturday. Even
should you fail to see yourself, you can,
at least, pick out some of your friends
here and there in that huge gathering.
The pictures show the boys preparing
for war, exocuting maneuvers, being
mustered into service and bidding fare
well to relatives and friends. The
regular five acts of vaudeville, headed
by the dramatic sketch entitled. "Mead
owbrook Lane,'' are being given along
with these pictures.

Miss Frederick is seen first as the
elderly Duchess Maiden, who. in a mo

past revealed to her. As the gypsy,
Madge, she is seen at her best, and her

Japan Honors the Great Indian Poet.

he was expected at the end of May,

Expression in Singing, by H. S. Kirk
land. (Badger, SI.OO net.)
This volume of 160 pages is a trea
tise on the "art" o fsinging, a work
systematically planned, clearly and
concisely expressed. The work had a
double mission; for the author ad
dresses those "who wish to use intel
ligently the means of expression which
nature has given them" and the lay
men who would listen more intelli
gently to music, especially song. The
writer, who is intimately acquainted
with the author and in fact studied
under him, knows with what fervor
he has applied himself to the work
of giving society at large a means to
appreciate th 3 real art of vocal en
deavor; a means not iconoclastic, but
which goes deep into the realms of ar
tistic endeavor, without which, true
expression in any art is a thing Impos
sible. Mr. Kirkland's book might be
condemned, into one thought; "good
singing is not a quality of the song—
the music—it is of the singer." The
writer recalls the author's statement
"that to be a perfect singer, one shall
be able to sing in a hall so large that
the last row cannot fully understand
the words of the song, that the singer
shall sing in a tongue foreign to his
listeners, yet make his audience, by
his "expression," laugh or weep with
him. This then, is the end to which
the author is working in his volume;
perfect expression, based not upon
tonal beauty, placement of voice or
method alone, but by feelings of emo
tion and passion, by real expression
through genuinely "living" the text
and concept of the words.
SIXTEEN THOUSAND YARDS OF
MARK TWAIN
Mark Twain's popularity is in no
danger of diminishing, to judge by an
order just given by his publishers,
Harper & Brothers, for sixteen thou
sand yards of cloth to be used in bind
ing his books. If Mark Twain were
still alive and this cloth were stretched
out along the New York pavement, we
might see the familiar white-clad fig
ure walking over this green carpet for
ty Inches wide all the way from City
Hall northward to One Hundred and
Fifty-fifth street.
Bonnie May, the little heroine of
Louis Dodge's serial In Scrlbner's, has
contributed a lot of wise sayings on
the conduct of life. Here's some good
every-day advice on being pleasant:
"You ought to laugh sometimes when
you're not really amused. And you
can make people take a sensible view
of things sometimes just by laughing
at them. But, of course, you have to
know how to do it right. If you
bray at them, or giggle, they'll be in
sulted, naturally."

Gordon and Day are presenting a
comedy act at the park theater that is
in a class by itself. Some
The Show might term it a bicycle
at Paxtang; stunt. although the
wheels are but a sec
ondary consideration. So is the gro
tesque antics of the tramp comedian,
Mr. Gordon, that puts this act in the
headline class. Evlyn May and com
pany are offering one of those delight
ful little comedy sketches, entitled
"Much At Home." A surprise finish
makes Miss May's act a decided nov
elty among the various one-act plays on
the vaudeville stage. Three other acts
of standard caliber complete a most
pleasing performance. Arrangements
have been completed for a grand free
fireworks display at the park to-mor
row evening. In order to give the
park fireworks program plenty of va
riety, Manager Davis has ordered
changes made in set-pieces and aerial
stuff at each exhibition.
To Keep Skin in Fine
Condition All Summer
It would be much better for the skin
if little croam, powder or rouge were
used during the heated term. Mixed
with perspiration, dust and grime, these
things are anything but beautifying.
Ordinary mercolized wax will do more
for the complexion, and without giving
an oily, streaked, spotted or pasty ap
pearance. It is the ideal application
for the season, as it not only keeps the
pores clean, but daily removes particles
of scarf skin which have been soiled by
dirt or weather. By constantly keep
ing the complexion clear, white, satiny,
it does more toward perpetuating a
youthful countenance than any of the
arts or artifices commonly employed.
One ounce of mercolized wax, obtain
able at any drug store, will completely
renovate the worst complexion. It is
applied at night like cold cream and
washed off in the morning.
To keep the skin from sagging or
wrinkling, or to overcome such condi
tion, there's nothing better than a face
bath made by dissolving 1 ounce pow
dered saxolite in '/4 pint witch hazel.
