constructive leadership and guidance to
perplexed people.
The celebration of the birthday of
that great American, Ulysses S. Grant,
twice elected to the presidency by the
Republican pl-ty, was fitting occa-
sion for the utterance of this message
of cheer from Republican to Republi-
cans. The voters of the country are
sure to rally again under the standard
which represents the best traditions OF
safe and sane political leadership
which recalls the names of Lincoln and
Grant and Garfield and Harrison and
Mckinley.

April Magazines.

The magazines for April contain
number of interesting articles. The
following are from magazines sub
scribed for by the public library and
may be drawn for home reading:
Skirting the Balkan peninsula from
Triest to Constantinople, by Robert
Kitchens. Century, April, 1913, pages
884-S98. The second of a series of pa
pers on the Balkan peninsula; this pa
per deals entirely with Athens and the
country near it. The Parthenon and
other noted buildings are described. Il
Illustrations in color and in black and
white add to the vividness of the de-
scriptions.
Ny quest in the Arctic, by Vilhjalmur
Stefansson. Harper's, April, 1913,
pages ELISA. This paper maintains
the same high level of interest attained
by the author in the previous numbers.
Coronation Gulf is the destination
reached this time but the trip must
have been made in leisurely manner,
for Mr.. Stefansson has much to tell of
what he learned about seal and caribou
hunting among the Eskimos.
Vanishing roads, by Richard LEGAL
lienne. Harper's, April, 1913, pages
1909. This delightful article upon the
witchery and illusiveness of winding,
country roads is teeming with the in
SEPARATION to be drawn from life in the
open. Few authors have succeeded in
so artistically picturing that feeling of
oneness with nature which many of US
have experienced. Added charm is lent
by the excellent photographs.
Why children work the children s
answer, by H. M. Todd. Mcclure,
April, 1913, pages 6S-79 A powerful
grouping of answers upon this question;
one that does indeed transport US into
the child world. 1t may be surprising
to some of US that 269 out of 800 chill
dren answered that because they were
not hit in the factory they perferred it
to school Read this article and see if
you would agree with Miss Todd when
she asks would it not be possible to
adapt this child of foreign parentage
less to education and adapt education
more to the child?"
