The Man and the State

TIE SOUL OF DEMOCRACY. BY Edward How
ard Grggs. l2mo PIP. l5s. Tho Macmillan
Company.
. "Man for the State" says DR.. Griggs,
means autocracy and Imperialism;
Man for Mankind is the soul of democ-
racy.:" That epigram is the keynote of
the book, and very pretty and plausi-
bio epigram it is, no doubt But, as
the young woman in "The Mikado"
says, it all depends. In this case it all
depends upon your definition of the
State. Is it that of Louis XIV? Then
DR.. Griggs's arguments are all right
Is it that of Sir William Jones? Then
DR.. Griggs is all wrong. And we must
say that the former definition seems to
be the one which the author has in
mind.
We have outlived Louis XIV. And
we have not yet come, and devoutly
trust that we never shall come, to the
worse than insane Tolstoyan delusion
that statehood is incompatible with
humanity and that patriotism is tho
worst of crimes. Thus We must regret
that Dr.. Griggs, in this otherwise in
structive and inspiring volume, places
so much emphasis upon International
ism and SO little upon national patriot
ism. His epigram would have been
more pertinent and more profitable If
it had read "Man for the State means
autocracy; the State for Man means
democracy"

gusts. to divide the country on any
such principles. but by mining en-
gineers, to get for Germany the largest
possible area OF Lorraine's wonderful
iron deposits.
Throughout the volume, indeed, Mr..
Dawson Is so conservative that he
might almost be regarded as playing
the part of advocatus diaboli and of.
presenting the German side Of the
case; though of course he is really
most loyal to the Allied cause. And
it is we'll that at least one strong
writer should present such views. For,
however strenuous and stringent may
be the terms which the Allies uti-
mately prescribe, they want to con-
slider them from all angles, and to hear
every legitimate argument against as
we'll as for them. On some points he
is correct beyond question or cavil;
such as his opposition to sheer retalia-
ton and his distrust of permanent
alliances and his final judgment of
"the necessity of prosecuting the war
until Germany knows that she has lost
and until, as a consequence of her
failure, Europe will be able to breathe
more freely and sleep more soundly
than it has done for generation" ;"
Let that judgment be executed, and we
need not bother much about the other
details, for they will of necessity have
to be settled right.
One feature of Mr.. Dawson's ergu-
ment must have special notice, as a
vindication of one of President Will

Red Cross
A New Edition of Miss Board
man Authoritative Work

UNDER TIE RED CROSS FLAG At HOME AND
ABROAD BY Mabel 4. Boardnan chairman
National Relief Board. American Red Cross:
With fore"ori by Woodrow Wilson. President.
Company.
The approach of another $100, 100000
war fund campaign by the American
Red Cross gives timelness to the ad-
vent of this second edition of Miss
Boardman's work, which, because Of its
authority and completeness, might we'll
be known as "The Book of the Red
Cross" The original edition was pub
lished after the outbreak of the great
war, but before our participation in
it., The author has accordingly for
this second edition added chapter
treating of the entry of the United
States into the war and the expanded
organization of the Red Cross designed
to meet the needs of this transcendent
occasion.
Miss Boardman's book has a three
fold quality. 1t is historical, giving
Red Cross's origin, development and
achievement in peace and in war. 1t
is descriptive and explanatory, making
clear to the reader every detail of the
purposes and methods of the organiza-
ton. 1t is, finally, exhortatory, though
only by implication. There is no at
tempt at preaching or soliciting. but
the simple presentation of facts forms
the strongest Of appeal to the reader
to give all possible aid to one of the
noblest social organizations the world
has ever seen.

"a circumstance in itself strongly sug-

proceeds to enumerate and describe the
qualities which are characteristic of

the spirit of the great O'Connell, and
of that great man, John Redmond. who
died the other day amid the mourning
Of even his strongest political oppo-
nents. 1t is not an. attempt to defend
or to vindicate ireland, which, OF
course, is not needed, nor even a spc-
cial plea for her, which we trust is now
no longer needed, but just spirited
vivid portrayal of the Irish, just as
they have been and as they are. A bet
ter portrayal Of them we have not seen,
or one more calculated to confirm d
right conception of them in all minds
And. of course. such a portrayal is ust
the best possible disclosure Of the rea-

Now we know what has become Of the
old-fashioned war correspondent who
used to send to his paper one, two or
many columned letters describing bat
ties and army life and what not He
has turned book writer. There is no
longer room for such letters in the daily
paper, but the stuff must be written,
and SO it goes into books. Of such
books this war has thus far been i'm
measurably more prolific than all pre-
ceding wars put together, and the quail
'ty of it has averaged wonderfully high.
The diligent reader of these columns
will recall many volumes of personal
observation and experience on the bat
tie front, generally written by soldiers
themselves, to which we have given
high praise.
q place in the front rank. Sergeant
Major Lafond, of the Territorial Hus-
sars, has not hitherto been known to
fame. But writing from the fulness of
a gallant soldiers heart and life, he
has produced a volume epical in charac-
ter and in literary style, as gracefully
translated from the French by Edwin
Gile Rich, by no means unworthy to
have a preface from the pen of Maurice
Barres, Academician, while in its reve-
lations of French heroism it is splen-
didly in tune with Clemenceau's elo-
quent "Trbute to the Soldiers Of
France" which is copied from the col
umns of The Tribune upon the opening
pages of the book.
1t is a moving, living picture, a pano-
rama, of life, service, fighting, with
machine gun company on the battle
front. It is instinct everywhere with
intense vitality, with humor, with
pathos and with a dramatic sense such
as we have seldom seen surpassed.
There is romance, too, or it would not
have been written BY a Frenchman But
in all the varied scenes there is not
single false note, not one uncertain
touch. We have had books of this type
from American and from British
writer's. Place by the side of the very
best of them this from a Frenchman's
pen, and be grateful for la belle alli-
aNcp.

St. Parick's Day, or the eve of it, is
surely good time to consider the ques
ton implied in the title, if, indeed it is
after all necessary ever to do SO or to
ask the question. Why does God love
the Irish? Sure, mavourneen, 'tis just
because He is He and they are theyl
For He loves everybody, and therefore
He must love the Irish. And everybody
loves the Irish, and therefore He must
love them. Dye mind the fine logic?
But since the question is asked seri
ously, and since it implies some special
degree of divine favor for the Irish
race, DR.. Desmond gives it very seri-
Gus and convincing answer. Pointing
out the marvellous manner in which
that race, despite centuries of injustice

Mr.. Rice has written a frank and
revelatory preface to his new book OF
poems, always an event in American
letters. He makes plain a vigorous con-
tempt for the vers librists of Chicago
and all their works. His wish is un-
doubtedly running ahead of the facts
when he sees the exhaustion of these
free movements. But his point of view
is candid and we'll worth the making.
The traditions of English verse cannot
be too devotedly worshipped if the
worship be honest-and there can be
no question of Mr.. Rice's faith and sin
cerity. He writes his best work under

PEoBIEAfs OF THE PEACE BY William Har-

Sons.
This is one OF an increasingly numer-
Gus class Of books. which are to be
welcomed whenever they are sincere
and authoritative, as this one is, but
as many others are not. We mean that
a book is welcome which honestly and
intelligently seeks to indicate the
proper terms of peace at the end of
the war, and to inform the public con-
corning them; while the contrary is to
be said of any that aims at sordid
and sinister propaganda through mis-
representing and misleading.
OF Mr.. Dawson's sincerity there can
be no question, though we may not
always agree with him nor even accept
al his facts without modification. He
does not, for example, pay sufficient
attention to the purely economic mo-
tives which led to the German seizure
of Alsace-Lorraine, and exploits too
much the historic arguments in favor
of German ownership of the provinces.
We believe the fact is that the line
of demarcation through Lorraine was

MT. and Mrs. Barnett Goldstein Of POI Maple street have received the following letter from thelr son, Rob- ert, who is in France in the naval aviation force:
 I am transferred from Panillas to another station and this is dandy place. The best way that I can de- scribe it to you is to France it is the same as Atlantic City is to the United States, so you can just imagine what kind Of place it must be. We go in
 bathing every day. Sunday morning we are compelled to go in for a little
 swimming practice. I always thought
 that Ocean Beach was a good place
 to go in bathing but I find that France
 has better place than that of Ocean
 Beach and the water is warmer.
 Our station is on a small island and
 across the river is big city of Ara cahon. It is a summer resort and all the richest French people spend their vacations there.
 They tell me that before the war all the rich German people used to spend their summer vacations in Anacahon. I have been in quite few stations and on board quite a number of ships since I haves been in the service, but 1 have not yet found a place where
 
 frank I feel as if I am just spending
 summer vacation here. Only that
 have tq work every day, but the
 condition we have here work is a pleasure and the food at this station is simply great. It cannot be beat. A man cannot ask for any food any bet ter and you know that food has got to be good before I say it is good. The men and officers in general on this station are fine. But above all the French people we meet are the
 best French people in this place and I tell you that they are race of peo- pie whom are worthy Of the heh, of every nation as they sure do treat us l fine. If we walk by a Frenchman's E house and there is anybody outside l they invite us in and treat Us to any thing. They like to talk to the Amer ican boys and they want Us to learn to talk French.
