LORD LEVERHULME SEES
CRAWL AS KILLING PACE

LONDON. June 17.--Lord Levehulme.
one of Great Britain's largest manufac-
turers. asserts that more people shorten
their lives by dawdling in England than
by hustling. He is living proof that
hustling promotes hale old age. He has
always led the strenuous life and Aat 20
is still going strong.
He presided at the annual meeting or
the British Industrial Safety First AS
sociation recently. In his address he
drew largely upon his American expert
ence. Steps had been taken there, he
said, to ascertain whether 1t was the
hustling. bustling business man who was
supposed to shorten his days or the man
who crawled and dawdled through life.
He declared there were men in the
United States to-day of 80. 80 and be-
tween 80 and 100 years of age who were
still in good health and actively engaged
in business, whereas men who had re-
tired early from business had shortened
their lives thereby.
He thought the crawl of the dawdler
was largely instrumental In shortening
the lives of individuals in Great Britain
that the more a man worked. whether
professionally or in other vocations. the
more he would conserve his life ana
strength and thealife and commerce OF
the country.

Diuersities of Chestertos,

A new book by Mr.. Chesterton and
n reprint Of nm old one show him in
some OF the diversities of his intellcc-
tual equipment. The old book Is re-
print of the introductions to the novels
Of Dickens issued in the Everyman Ii
brary. The new one is collection of
journalistic essays published under the
title Of ''The Uses Of Diversity" (Dodd
Mead & Co..
The Dickens essays were written at
leisure with an attempt at some finality
Of judgment. They exhibit Mr.. Ches-
terton ms a critic of sympathy and dis
tPrnmert. That there should be a con
tinued demand for them in separate
form ten years after they were first
collected in this way proves that lie
has said some things which are Of per-
manent value.
The volume Of essays Is made up Of
the sparkling comment on books, men
and things which he contributes weekly
to London periodical. The comment
is suggested by a current play or q
now book or social development Of
momcntary interest. Mr.. Chesterton.
however, has n way of getting from the
specific to the general. and his comment
is worth reading long after the thing
that provoked 1t is forgotten. For ex.

Mrs. Blythe, who will be remembered
as the Anne of "Anne Of Green Cables

Miss Widden,er's Fairy Story

Margaret Widdemer herself would
doubtless admit that her latest novel
THE Year Of Delight" (Harcourt,
Brace 4 Co... is a fairy story. Such
things as happen in her book are COM
mon enough in that land Of the imag-
ination where by the waving of a wand
anything can be made to happen. But
in the town where you live? Well,
hardly.
Delight Lanicr. after whom the book
is named, is little girl living in an
endowed school maintained for the
orphaned daughters of clcrgymen. De-
light is always careful to explain that
1t is not an orphan asylum. and that
the dresses are not uniforms. because
although they arc all gray and oil cut
on the same pattern, the girls may
choose for themselves whether they
shall be trimmed with blue braid or
with red. Delight is quiet and obe-
dent little girl, but her quietness is
due to her ABSORPTION in dream of
what will happen the year after next.
When she is eighteen rich cousin Of
her dead mother takes her to her home
as her secretary. and then after two
or three years dies suddenly and leaves
the girl n fortune of $G,000,000. At
about the same time doctor tells the
girl that she is suffering from per-
nicious anemia and has only about
year to live. She decides to try to
make happen in this year all the de-
lightful things that she still continued
to dream might happen in the year after
next. In doing it she gets mixed up
in a lot of complications that never
troubled her dream. but in the end. as
in all good fairy stories, they were

In writing of the old conflict between

this: That some traditions too old to

religion are unprovable; the facts Of

these two books are full Of stimulating
