"The Immigrant Press and Its Con-

troll" BY Robert T.. Park. New
York Cky: Harper & Brothers
This is the seventh volume of the
Americanization Series, and 1t deals
with a subject of much Importance,
mind has not yet been attracted def
nitely. This is the influence of what
is called the immigrant press upon
those who come to this country, and
how this influence affects their prog
ress towards real citizenship.
The papers of the immigrant press
are printed in foreign languages, and
thus the immigrant naturally seeks
his information and entertainment
from the papers whose printed pages
speak TO him in his native tongue.
Here is an influence that is enormous,
and when rightfully directed, as il
generally is, becomes an important
factor in the great work Of assimila-
ton.
The purpose Of this book is TO elm
mate what is regarded as one of the
greatest obstacles TO tho work OF
Americanization - the opposition OF
social workers, as well as the general
public, 10 the foreign language press
Mr.. Park goes into the subject init
mately, with numerous revealing and
interesting quotations from the for
eign-language papers, to show their
aims and the good they can do and
are doing, in his opinion. This is the
first attempt to explain foreign-lan
guage newspapers with an under

"Lost Valley BY Katharine Fuller
ton Gerould. New York City
Harper 3 Brothers.


This is the first novel coming from
Mrs. Gerould, who., however, had made
her name and her work known as a
writer of short stories. Lost Valley"
is her beginning in the extended line,
and a good one.
Interest in Lost Valley" centres in
its heroine, Madge Iockerby. She
was of the Valley and loved It. all
though the Valley had lost It's former
agricultural prosperity and was in n
state of decay. But II retained its
natural beauty. and physically at
least held the love OF appreciative
ones 10 the Valley born.
The career of Madge Lockerby is
full OF interest. Her life at home was
hard, and harder still was her long
search for her loved half sister, who
strayed from home, her childish mind
being infatuated with the monkey of
an itinerant organ-grinder. Tragedy
ended the fateful journey, the young
girl falling victim TO the blow of an
ASA ssin's knife, meant for another.
More interesting even are the asso-
Citations formed by Madge Dockerby
in her search for her sister. She met
with rebuffs, mishaps and hard times
But she met her fate. also. and after
her return to the Valley, amid it's en-
trancing beauties. heard the love con-
fession Of the man TO whom she gave
her heart at last.
The story is told with much dra-
matte force. and the leading character
will appeal deeply TO lovers Of good
romance.
