Individual incomes, estimated on a

Eighty percent of those receiving in
comes below sl.750 had about SO per-

The reprot further shows that in

principal organized industries, wages
and salaries were about 20 percent. of
the total income: while capital Tin

80 percent, out OF which were paid

proportions varied materially with
relative prosperity and depression.

Light is shed on the increased in

1910 to 1919 Agriculturists, who
during the past decade have made up
about 16 percent. OF the total of the

Boni and Liverwrighu. Rose Macaulay
has written book entirely about her
own sex. There is no particular rea-
son why any man should ever look
al IL unless he is curious about
woman's view point on life. And there
Is every reason why the book should
interest a multitude of women.
The author has had the original
idea OF taking five women from one
family. ranging in ages from 20 TO 81.
and writing her story around them.
The male characters necessary to the
plot are so lightly sketched in as TO
be entirely negligible. with the 'ex-
ception OF the one who figures in the
romantic episode OF the book.
The result IS quite odd. and rather
lop-sided. like knowing one or more
persons OF family very well and
hearing the others alluded to frequent
ly but never meeting them.
In this book as in her earlier work
"Potterisml" the author shows her
ability as a keen and subtle analyst
OF character, aud is merciless in her
expose OF the hidden springs that lie
beneath the surface OF the mind and
furnish it's motive OF action. She
takes gentle crack at the psyche
