History of Labor Unions

Helen Marot's american Labor
Unions" Qienry Holt 6 Co., New York;
Is Il clear statement OF the attitude toward
life and work taken by the laboring man
who sees In the union the one method
of his salvation. 1t is written by a mem
ber OF an American Federation of Labor
local, but II Is fair to all types of union
ism, and In Its discussion of the Indus
trial Workers of the World is eminently
we'll informed
The book combines judicious amount
of illuminating history with criticism and
analysis, and is therefore valuable as a
text book. apart from its excellence as
n criticism or explanation.
Miss Marot's keenness of mind is
shown by such thing as her distinc-
tion between the trade union (Amerlcan
Federation OF Labor as natural, as rep
resenting the relation of normal labor to
normal capital, while the craft union is
artificial, as representing the abnormal
relation OF labor to capital which has
come about through the abnormal synthe-
sis OF capital.
With a natural feeling for the trade
union, the author points out the demarca-
ton between the older and the newer
type; that the American Federation OF
Labor stands for "a fair days wage for
a fair days work" while the Industrial
Workers of the World necessarily deny
the ancient belief that the laborer Is
worthy of his hire, because they believe
that the entire relation between capital
and labor is unnatural

The Charm of the Antique"

THE Charm Of the Antique" by Robert
and Elizabeth Shackleton CHearst's In
ternational Library Company, New York;,
Is written enthusiastically and the human
element is kept well to the front. The
authors are so completely under the spell
of the antique that they are sometimes
too eXuborant in adiectives. However,
this Is better than If the subject were
treated in lifeless classification manner,
and 1t will please and instruct all who
have already felt the charm. and may
serve to create lively interest in those
who have never felt the joy of collect
ing old and beautiful things.
Behind the human interest there Is solid
knowledge of the history and art value OF
antique furniture and furnishings The
different periods are clearly distinguished
and. thanks to excellent illustrations, the
reader can see for himself what the
authors mean in their descriptions, No
one who wishes home in good taste
should be without this book, and fortu-
nately 1t is so we'll gotten up that it may
be used as a Christmas gift.

Children in Bondage

Gods battle" Thus the authors
conceive the subject OF which they treat
in children in Bondage" (Hearst's In.
ternational Library Company. N. ",
and in the spirit of that conception Ed
win Markham, Judge Lindsey and George
Creel dipped their pens and wrote.
This book. filled with a crusading fer
vor which is especially stirring in the
II chapters By Mr.. Markham, presents
the case OF 100000 little children who are
fed annually into the steel Jaws of the
modern Industrial machine to be man
gled. mind, body and soul. It is full Of
pity and full of, logic, 1t is a battling
cry to American citizens to join in re-
volt and assault against Mammon guilty
OF the crimes of child labor and more
cruel to his victims than Moloch. II
makes visible the horrible process of de-
stroying these little ones, so helpless and
hopeless, but its urgent appeal Is not
only for their rescue, but for the defense
of society itself.
Child labor is set forth as n fundamental
evil with underlying and compelling re-
lations to vice, crime, disease, low wages
and the ferment OF unrest And "if we
are to win free from the evils which mem
ace our experiment in democracy we
must guard our youth" We must con-
serve the children.
The book is. above all things else, what
can rightly be called n human docu-
ment," and along with it's emotionalism
goes a calm consideration of ways and
means for winning the campaign of
which It is itself part. That campaign
centres on the adoption of n uniform
child labor law by all States.

On the British Army

"The British Army from Within by
E. Charles Vivian George II, Doran Com
rany, New York;. is an intimate study of
the great British volunteer force by a
man quick to point out its virtues and
not slow to ackno wledge its vices and
weaknesses. Its treatment is so minute
and vet SO graphic that a very clear
idea is obtained of the daily life of the
prlvates, even to the margin OF spending
money they have per day and how they
use It, The work is thoroughly up to
date. and Is written in the light OF the
new army that Kitchener is now forming.
1t may serve as a popular handbook on
one of the Allies for all who are inter-
ested i'm the present war, and our reg
uIar army and militia officers win find
II instructive. II full and exact lSnowl-
edge of the subject is valuable, plus a
good style in presentation, the work
ought to be popular

The Last Christian y

Whether or not George Kibbe Turner
means to imply that the Christian church
is approaching the obsolete stage is care
fully concealed in his novel, "The Last
Christian" UIearst's International Lii
brary, New York;. He rehashes, through
the conversations of his characters, all the
more or less hackneyed doubts and re-
belllous arguments Of those persons who
think they have become too advanced to
accept the old dogmas. But to offset this
he devotes plentiful space to the reasons
given by the faithful why the scrlptural
revelations and laws should be adhered to.
Don't imagine from the title that you
are going to read about the final over
throw OF the Church. You would, of
course, be entitled to suppose this, But
the last Christian" referred to is merely
the last one in certain small New
England town to keep the faith to the
letter Most of the others adopted liberal
views, some departed from the fold alto
gethor.
OF these latter Calvin Morgan, the
young hero-lovcr. was one and we are
left to infer that his sweetheart eventually
followed him. She was the daughter of
the pastor of the White Church, old
Mr. GrIswold, the title character In the
book. And he remains the biggest. truest
character, Notwithstanding that he dwin-
dies to a lone minority.

New York;. A brother and sister sep
arate for their summer holiday. the one
going to the sea, the other seeking the
mountains. On parting they agree to
give some one n good time, and the full
filling Of this compact is the body of the
story. Betty, the sister, becomes inter-

who live alone in the mountains. Then
the reader scents a mystery. 1t seems
that there is bond that connects these
two widely dissimilar families The dis
covery of the secret and the restoration
Of their grandchild to the old couple
forms a story that, while intended prl-
marily for children, will hold the in
terest Of the elders as well. Charmingly
told, this tale should enjoy the same pop

BIG PUBLISHERS
Surfeit of War Literature
Will Turn People to Col

Planned.

While at least several New York pub
fishers. are at present specializing in
books bearing on the war, the majority
anticipate the biggest sales in nction.
That the public. stated with war litern-
ture, will seek diversion in romance is
Z the general opinion prevailing among
publishers both in New York and Phila-
delphia
1--WE look for a fiction boom along to-
ward Christmas and spring" declared the
manager of a Philadelphia publishing
house. I'VE believe that, depressed and
surfeited with war horrors, people will
want TO forget themselves and the war
in engrossing fiction, We believe also
that the European conflict will change
the character of fiction. There Is a ten
dency on the part OF readers to select
high-colored romances, full of sentiment
adventure and excitement. The pale ane.
mic books which have sold widely will
fail to stimulate the readers Imagination.
cat the present time there Is a lull in
book sales. but we are confident that, by
the holidays, business VIII revive and
people win buy novels as perhaps they
never have before. Working along these
lines. we plan big advertising cam
palgn; in fact, we shall spend more
money advertising this Christmas than
ever"
Jefferson Jones. the manager OF the
John Lane Company, New York stated
the other day that the book sales OF this
firm for September and October exceeded
those OF the same period last year
"A depression generally in business be-
cause of the war was inevitable" said
Mr.. Jones. Still, 1t is an extraordinary
fact that. with the war going on. we have
sold more novels this fall than during a
similar period in 1918. What do 1 think
the effect will be on fction7 Person
ally think the big writer's will have
great sales, but 1 fear It. will be an in
auspiclous spring for newcomers Pub
lishers, for one thing will feel mere con-
fident of investing money in established
sellers and less willing to take chances
However, the war will not deter publish
ers from publIshing-that is certain"
At the cffices of Henry Holt il was also
said that the fiction sales of the last
month surpassed those OF 1918. Il. j.
Clode declared that he would specialize
entirely on fiction next spring.
