his friends doubted~his Judgment but
Mr.. Bok's confidence in his own ability
10 do something else, the bigger the
better, was mistaken, and was justified
to the full as the event proved. He
began--as unconsciously as ever-with
the towering idea that 1t was not
necessary for a man ito understand
women in order to make a paper for
them, and he also believed that a man
could run a paper for women better
than a woman could; he could engage
women for special work and sift their
work and apportion 1t to better ad-
vantage. His first two successes,
which never died and are still going
strong. were departments In which
women correspondents upon the most
intimate personal subjects were an
swered individually by women who had
both the brains and taste to know
what TO say and the knack of so
framing their answers as to attach
every one Of the correspondents TO
the paper by ties OF personal interest
and a sense Of personal contact. He,
beyond every competitor, tapped the
great human interest vein," and his
paper thrived nightly under the trans
fusion. Pretty much all the women In

The series of articles on the work of
our navy I'm the war by Rear Admiral
William s. Sims, In collaboration with
Burton J. Hendrick. that appeared in
tho pages of The Worlds Work have
been brought together and published in
handsome volume. Specifically. the
text is. as Admiral Sims says in his
preface. an account OF the very gen.
orally misunderstood submarine cam
paign and particularly Of the means by
which Il was defeated. and not in any
sense history or our naval forces In
Europe during the Great War, much
less a history OF the naval operations
as a whole" No changes appear In the
story as It appeared in Tho Worlds
Work, and to his collaboration Admiral
Sims accredits both the form and
such graces OF descriptive style" as
the reader may be able to detect. Nine
appendices are added, however, includ-
ing the official authorization Of the
Navy Department for the publication

ciation from Secretary Daniels. and

the naval situation abroad sent by

does not need to be even half az wise
as Mr. Box must be to perceive that
any such generalization would De too
calamitous to think about. He does
confess TO a certain disappointment"
but he wags his head wisely and goes
on, with his sweet smile, to the next
job to be discovered, tackled and
brought into line as builder up Of his
general undertaking.
Mr.. Box has been able to WELD the
enormous influence of his periodical In
sundry attacks upon such abuses as
led to the passing of the pure food
crusades which led to great improve
ment In public taste'-to use a mystic
phrase. But he endorsed the old
fashioned Pullman car upholstery as
standard of home decoration, and he
improved the general appearance of
american country towns by his diff
fusion Of architects plans for small
houses conveniently planned, and at
the same time he exercised the ghost
of Queen Anne which stalked horribly
for time in quickening communities.
He engineered picture shows among
the Hittites and Amalekites of the Re-
public, and went half way round the
world repeatedly in search Of some new
beauty for the general betterment In
learning how to have eyes to see and
ears to hear. interchangeable from start
to finish, he now feels that he has
done some such thing for his country
as his grandfather did for the bleak
island in the North Sea to which he
had been sent when he planted trees, in
the face of all discouragements. He
has made the world bit more beauti-
full and better because he has been
in it."
Mr. Box is thoroughly serious and
purposeful man. II ne had scattered
his talents in any of the branching
channels of humor through which
much human energy is continually dis
sipated, to the lessening of the weight
of repeated hammering blows OF pro-
gressive endeavor, he would not have
done as much good as he has. His
book is as great a marvel OF well d.
rected effort as he Is himself.
