Japan, Brazil and Mexico. Have ws space for q fragment of the letter writ. ter by one of the three governors Os states in Mexico who are products oi our schools2 If so reproduce this:
 Writes senor Mireles, governor of the state of Cohahuila, to one of our mis- sionaries Since my early childhood have known of the great work that was being accomplished in tue institution of which you have charge, and since holding the office of governor, 1 have had re- peated opportunities for learning from personal observation the extent of it's influence which now reaches nearly all parts of our republic. On this occasion l wish to express the gratitude of the Mex
 can people to you and to all who have co-operated with you in the noble servfca you have rendered our nation. We need your continued help, and if in any way can prove my sincere appreciation of what you have done or propose to do by reciprocal service, I am internationally at your orders.'
 'The same gratitude was expressed by Miss Consuelo Saenz, cultured young women from our border school at Laredo, Tex, who is interested in the masses of her Mexican people, 63 per cent of whom are illiterate.' said Mrs. Elliott.
 Now, every one of these fields is re- membered in our centenary want coT-
 
 where Dr. Pinson carried his council aud1+ ence so graphically. Most of these mis- sion fields are just as interested as ws are at home in the centenary. Perhaps the Hottentot author wouldn't agree with him, but the venerable Bishop Murrah graphically assured the councA that the world is coming around to youx viewpoint Mrs. Elliott said. We appreciated, of course, that such an assurance was not only prompted by the graciousness of great man. but perhaps a bit by the indulgence an3 mere man likes to bestow upon a child his hand has supplied with new toy, or a woman his voice has helped to supply with a new franchise (By the way tho good bishop was speaking at the time of the 1aity rights recently granted by the conference to the women of southern Methodism). However, this may be, wa believe the wise man meant more. As hA was addressing body of women we be@ lieve he meant that the world was com1 ing around not to the viewpoint of any organization or creed, but to the mothea viewpoint, the saving viewpoint, the re- generative viewpoint, the missionary viewpoint. This will be the viewpoint of the League of Nations, of the democ1 racy made safe for a world It is thu viewpoint of the centenary. And so, with apologies to the cookA and bards of all ages and stages" Mrs Elliott said, Tets conclude with tha thought: Here's to the centenary drive, We toast it crisp and brown, We toast it on the homeland side | And turn it upside down To toast it on our foreign fields | In every single place Where bread of it's life message glad l May feed with truth and grace. 
 TO council and to conference, | We toast these loaves with spice, A toast to each auxiliary | That forms wholesome slice toast to Birmingham, its goal, 1 Arising not to drop
 | While centenary leavening 1 Spreads out above the top"

of it's influence may be guessed rom tnd title The novel closes with that drat matic touch of naturalism which is al all times the finger print, so to speak, of Bennetts soundest art.
 All this by way of preface to intro- duce a new book by Bennett which not only has connecting link with the earlier novels, in that its hero is the son of Hilda LeSsways of the Clay hanger series, but which has all the char acteristics of those earlier successes. In tracing the life of Hilda's son in Ison- don, his progress from an articled clerk in an architects office 70 the status of a talented architect, his love affairs. his own moral development under impulses not always logical, and the unexpected termination of the tale are all in Ben- nett's best style. George Cannon Is neither better nor worse than the aver- age, but tn ereader is admitted into the processes of his mind with realism that is sometimes startling, often iIlumk nating Of course, it would be fmpos- sible for an English author of today to write a book and not touch upon the war, yet this part of the story Is no more than a touch, graphic and telling, but still not more than a glimpse at the psychology of one volunteer in the early months of 1914. The characters of Can- non and of the two women of the tale ara freely Sketcneu ana Witn tnat ueucacy and skill which made of 'The Old Wives Tale' so great book. '"The Roll Call' others far less detail in the description of the lives of it's actors, and MT Bennett indulges in an elusiveness which is often tantalizing. But taken as a whole '"The Roll Call" is an admir- able production, of absorbing interest, notwithstanding that it ends nowhere and leaves the story in the air, so to speak and quite worthy to rank with the best work Mr. Bennett has done.

THAT'S ME ALL OVER, MABLE."
 Breck Frederick A. Stokes Company,

 Everybody loved "Dere Mable," those adorable Love Letters of a Rookie" written by E. Streeter, and now the clever author comes along with an addi- tion to the first 'Mable" letters his little volume bearing the name of That's Me All Over, Mable."
 These letters are good for whatever ''ails you" They are good for the old grouch, the melancholy fellow. and if you can't get up laugh over them you needn't try to get up a laugh over any thing because it cant be done, that's all
 The present little volume, That's Me All Over, Mable," finds Bill in south- ern camp, which he describes wonderful ly. His military duties, his jail sentence the stupidity and mysteriousness of mili- tary life, all come in TOT a touch of the brilliant original pen of the author.
 Almost every page is quotable. Here is sample of Bills genial observation:
 I'm goin to send you one of the tor petoes they shoot out of the guns. There lyin' all over the lot AS far as I can see there just as good as new. The Cap tain said not to touch any of 'em case they mightent have exploded and was liable to go off when you handled them. I asked them where they was going to, but he couldn't see Joke if you hit him with it. I'm not taking no chances, though, Mable. I always carry a ham, mer and I pound each one of them good before I picked 'em up.

 CHRISTIAN INTERNATIONALISM By William Pierson Merrill; the Mac milan company, publishers. New York
 city.
 An army pushing it's victories ad vance finds one stub born stronghold which resists; and it realizes that it must capture that one center of resist ance or it's advance is imperilled. So Christianity, advancing to the control of the worlds life, halts before this great citadel of international relation ships where pagan forces are still strongly intrenched; and it realizes that the whole programme and help of Christian redemption are held back, thwarted, imperilled, until that fortress is reduced"
 Christian internationalism lays siege to this fortress and marshalls in force manifold considerations, political, so- case for an immediate end of the old arbitrary conduct of nations toward each other and a beginning of a new era of peaceful, ordered freedom

quite gay and clever and rather true to the type of English girl which it portrays. Patricia Brent was employed as a prf- vate secretary by very respectable and negligible politician. None of her rela tives were alive except an aunt. rather seedy and disagreeable, but abundant in family pride. Patricia lived alone in lodging house which harbored many rsIl- CTS like her, in various stages of genteel disntegration. One night in a fit of desA peration she remarked at dinner that she was dining with her fiance Ca purely i'm aginary major in the British army) the next evening" When she reached the place where she had said they would dine she found that two of the lodgers had followed her and in a panic lest they discover her plight she spoke to young officer who was dining alone.

 THE ROLL CALL"
 Bo Arnold Bennett George H. Doran
 company, publishers, New York city.
 In this new, long novel, MT. Bennett reyerts to the manner which established his enduring fame. "The Roll Calr' has the texture of accumulated detail of 1.-The Old Wives Tale" The author here tells the story of George Cannon, very un- usual hero. The native of the famous Five Towns comes up to London at an early age and achieves a very great and rapid success as an architect. He mounts Through succeeding stratas of literary, artistic political and fashion able society "The Roll Call'' presents elaborate pictures of life in Chelsea, Bloomsbury and the West End, together with brilliant glimpses of Paris, where reside the parents of the strange girl whom George marries There is another girl, too in the story, and the compli- cations of Georges existence between the two produce striking drama.
 The most brilliant prospects spread out before the hero, and then the great wal begins. It's course exercises a drastic influence upon his career, and the natur
