SUGGESTIVE READING.

You will hear it said that such
and such a magazine prints sug-
gestive stories, meaning that they
present corrupting ideas in an at
tractive dress. But there is sug-
gestiveness also of quite a different
sort-the suggestiveness that quick
ems the readers sense of duty, slim
ulates ambition, gives courage to
face adversely, fortifies against yield
ing easily to temptation. 1t is this
better kind of suggestiyeness that
you will find on almost every page
of The Youths Companion. Which
of these two kinds of suggestiveness

 Only few weeks ago, the Ameri can Legion brought Marshal Foch to the United States as the guest of tht Legion and began piloting him around this country. At first the officials of the Legion were careful about mak- ing the Marshal's trip one that would not prove too strenuous for him. But they found that the man who led the allied troops to victory in the World War was great deal more strenu- ous than they had estimated. For Marshal Foch said he wanted to see the United States from top to bottom and from one side to the other. and that too taSt q pace could not he set for him Therpfoie trip which had at first been set for about three weeks was extended to seven weeks
