pointed by President Harding, i'm
pressed upon members of the Bis
marck high school today the value of
education in dollars and cents.
DR.. Tigert, speaking ir the assembly
room before the students and teachers,
cited the great advance made in the
iron and steel industry in the United
States through scientific research. The
status of the iron industry score or
more years ago represented the nat
ural ability of the creators Of the in
dustry; the condition today reflects the
value of education.
A steadfast purpose in life, ambi-
tiouly pursued. was urged upon the
high school students lie pointed as
examples the purpose and persever-
ance Of Andrew Jackson and Napoleon
B0naparte. He drew u contrast be-
tween ability, ambition and education
rightly and wrongly applied.
One of the greatest problems Of edu-
cation today is to see that energies
are directed in the proper channels,
DR.. Tigert said
'"You can't do much IN the world to-
day without education and ability" he
told the students. "You can't ac-
c0mplish much without purpose and
perseverance, and both of these must
be used to, keep education in the right
direction
DR.. Tigert, who is Ell route to Seat

partment, is stopping at the state cap

Fishing
Adventure With Fish lr
Many Waters

SOME FISH AND SOME FISHING. BY
Frank Gray Griswold. Published by the
John Lane Company So.
"HIS book is the record OF more
than forty years experience in
fishing for practically every kind
of fish that inhabits American waters
Usually work of this sort deals either
with the natural history of fish or with
the mechanism of fishing, the material
used and the methods employed, but
in these pages all phases of the royal
sport are handled in an admirable and
instructive blending.
In the opening chapter, in which
Griswold asserts that the tarpon is the
fish that interests him the most, he
gives a paragraph or two on the daily
life of this fish, and then quotes aptly
from a legend of the River Grow
Indians in which occurs a beautiful
conception of the reason why the tar
pom wears a mail of silver. The chap
ter following is a careful study of
boats, rods and bait to be used in fish
ing for tarpon. And so on through a
sequence of twentyfour chapters we
follow the author in his pages on all
the big fish of our coasts, with occa-
sional diversions in the riverways OF
the salmon.
Many men have wondered as to the
age fish attain and how they find food
In the deep sea. Some curious and in
tercsting sfacts on these matters are
found in The chapter on salmon.

and E. R. Hi gins, the illustrator, con-
vey you to that charmed country and
leave you there for a long, delightful
hour. Fairies and animals and humans
are all mixed up in joyous comedy
that you don't have to be seven years
old to giggle over.
Lucy Sprague Mitchell has done
something really new in her Here and
Now Story Book" In her experiments
as educator she has arrived at some
interesting conclusions. She declares
that all stories should lead children
out from the familiar and immediate,
rather than transporting them into the
strange and mysterious, as most stories
for children do. She has made care
full and patient Investigations and be-
lieves that the standbys of ANTIQUE
origin, such as Jack and the Bean
stalk" "Cinderella" and others, are not
only confusing to young minds, but
are actually hurtful in their influence
on the child's moral and social de-
velopment. She gives us 800 pages of
sample stories, all about things COM
mon to the experience of the young.
Really good stories of schoolgirl
life, those that unite exciting incidents
with the useful, busy life of normal
youth, are joy to schoolgirls who
read themselves into the heroine's s
career. Angela Brazil has accom-
pllshed much in the way Of writing
such a story, and her talent is well
expressed in "a Popular Schoolgirl u

Colonel Roosevelt as War
Journalist

ROOSEVELT IN THE KANSAS CITY
STAR. ndIted, with Introduction.
by Ralph Stout. Published by Hough,on
Minln Co. 81
/" HE policy Of the late Administra-
tion condemned Colonel Roose-
welt to the role OF most un-
willing stay-at home during the war.
but he found a way to back up his
four sons at the front by contributing
series Of editorials to "The Kansas
City Star" which attained wide circu-
lation throughout the country.
These editorials are now published
in book form, with an introduction by
MIR. Ralph Stout, managing editor of
"The Star explaining the crcum-
stances which led up to Colonel Roose-
velt's connection with the paper. The
editorials constitute vcritablc sermons
on true Americanism, preached with
Colonel Roosevelt's characteristic fer
vor. energy and diroctness The laggard
policy o. the government in the early
days Of the war is vigorously criti-
cized; the paciiists and pro- Germans
are stingingly cxcoriated.
The concluding EDITORIAL entitled
"The League of Nations" is especially
interesting, because it is one of the
last things which Colonel Roosevelt
wrote. 1t emphasizes the folly of en-
tering into any covenant which prom
ises more than nations at their present
state of development are willing to
perform, and recommends that the
league begin as an association of the
victorious Allied powers, expanding its
membership as dictated by safety and
expedience.
This book records the climax Of
Colonel Roosevets lifetime of patri-
otto service. 1t is a fitting and worthy
memorial to man whose greatness is
even more generally recognized in
death than in life.

THROUGH THE RUSSIAN REVOLT
TON. BY Albert Rhys Williams. Pub
lilshed by Boni & Liveright 81
T HIS is a colorful book in more
senses than one. In the first
place, it is illustrated with a
number of Soviet posters, excellently
reproduced in color. Then the authors
style is only little less brilliant than
the flaming posters with which he has
illustrated his work. Mr.. Williams
demonstrated his ability to interpret
current events in terms of human
drama and pathos when he wrote his
splendid war book, an the Claws of
the German Eagle" He has even frecr
scope for his talents in reporting the
Russian revolution.
With his judgment of the revolution,
with his sympathetic appraisal of the
characters of the Soviet leaders and
his approval of the present Russian
form of government very few Ameri-
cans will agree. Here, more than any
where else in the world, the com
munist experiment initiated by Lcninc
and Trotzky is viewed with unqualified
disapproval
But, leaving politics aside, there is
much that is fascinating and enjoy
able in Mr.. Williams's narrative of his
experiences in the tempest of revolu-
ton. His pictures of the workers and
peasants with whom he came in con-
tact are tinged with warm human SYM
pathy. The lover of excitement will
not be disappointed in the book Such
episodes as the great demonstrations
in Petrograd and Moscow, the death
struggle between Reds and Whites in
the telephone exchange, and the au-
thor's own adventures in Vladivostok
set the blood tingling and keep the
eye fastened to the printed page until
the end of the book is reached.
Some interesting historical material
is included in the appendices. And the
spirit OF the wild times which Mr.. Will
liams describes is effectively preserved
in the reproductions of original Soviet
procl lamations which are scattered
through the book.
