Persons moving from one part of this great country to another

that their health is seriously impaired. A lady who was a native of
New York City moved to Texas to live with her son, who is a ranch.

evils of a change in atmospheric and living conditions. She writes;
"The diet being different in Texas from what have been accus.

One who thinks to circumvert or to successfully resist econo- mic and social laws is fighting against the stars in their courses
 If then the city is destined to dominate the nation, every important question fol- lows-is materialism to dominate the city? 1.-The materialistic city menace to itself" is chapter full of vital questions, treated in serious and altogether earnest man. ner by the author He maintains that our political development in the United States has been along national and state lines rather than municipal. The principles of the state and national governments are well settled and clearly defined, but those of municipal reorganization and govern ment are confused and uncertain. Dr. Strong deduces many arguments upon sani- tary problems, the moral welfare and other questions of dense city life to enforce his idea of the immense responsibility resting upon city authorities No greater emphasis could prove his earnestness than the following quotation: "1t does not seem to me extrayagant to say that higher lntellectudl Qudl1tleS are reQuircu to SOlVe these problems than-to administer success fully the office of the nations chief ex- ecutive.
 In the chapter s"The Materlalistic City a Menace to State and Nation," Dr. Strong states many facts not particularly new per haps to the broad-minded thinker upon public questions. but he states their ten dencies and their probable effects with such energy and vigor that the reader must, perforce. be impressed with their import Our friendly but discriminating English critic, Prof. Bryce, says that the one conspicuous failure of American insti- tutions is the government of our great cities. Dr.. Strong claims that every intel ligent man knows this to be true. The standardization of municipal affairs in our large cities has long since become 6 national scandal and disgrace These chap ters are too valuable for the reviewer, to give any adequate idea of their worth by a few detached quotations, for "a new pa- triotism suggests to the mind in a most persuasive way the responsibility and duty laid upon every individual.

 Three years later the Baltimore had a wretched experience off Japan, where she was torpedoed by the Japanese torpedo fleet which mistook her for a Chilian ship fleet, which mistook her for a Chinese ship. The Chinese opened fire on the Jap anese and before the Baltimore could get up her steam, take up her anchor and get out of the way, she was under fire of both forces, China and Japan, but fortunately was not struck. She dared not fire on either fleet.

Rev. Joasiah Strong. D. D., of Illinois, a Congregational clergyman has created for himself an enduring reputation by his able and scholarly books which have made @ profound impression on the present de- cade. Our Country and ''The New Era, ' are books replete with information, pow erful and patriotic books. which should be read by all our, people who wish to keep abreast of needfu knowledge of our land and country. The latest book published by Dr. Strong is 'The Twentieth Century City, In this volume the author attempts a diagnosis and a prescription. After dis cussing the growth and tendencies of mod ern civilization. in wonderfully concise and lucid manner he suggests the reme- dies for evident dangers which threaten and encompass the modern city. The vol ume is composed of eight chapters. some of which have appeared before as series of articles. In the first chapter 'The Ma terialism of Modern Civilization" Dr. Strong undertakes to show the essential character of modern civilization, its weak ness and peril. After pointing out the ne- cessity for equal development along the physical, mental and moral growth of in- dividuals he says: Tt is vital question whetherthe materialsm of the Nineteenth century is to blossom into something
 
 marvellous material civilization will prove to be at the expense of intellectual and spiritual growth The author offers two striking and forceful examples in quoting Spain and England. The Sixteenth cen tury was a period of wonderful physical activity. There were voyages, travels in ventions discoveries, which resulted in a great extension of commerce and increase of wealth. The gold of the New World was poured into the lap of Spain, but the entervening years have proved that Spain failed to make a corresponding develop mcnt of intellectual and spiritual life, and her material glory soon faded. England on the other hand, made intellectual and moral progress no less remarkable than her physical growth
 Prof Drummond has said. ''he who makes the city makes the world" Following in the lead of this statement, Dr. Strong maintains that If it is true of modern civ ilization that materialism is its supreme peril, pre-eminently true Is 1t of American civilization. and further, if material growth finds it's comparative in the New World, the modern city furnishes it's superlative- Under the title "A Nation of Cities" Dr. Strong gives some forceful and convincing arguments to prove the causes which have
