The Outline
of Science

THE OUTLINE OF SCIENCE. Vol
ume II. Edited by ]. Arthur
Thomson. G. P. Putnam's Sons
TT is a pleasure to welcome the
second volume of this monu-
mental work so soon after the
first. 1t is also a pleasure to note
that the book is meeting the-welcome
it merits, and that a fourth printing
has already been demanded. 1t was
reviewed, as to its whole scope and
importance, in THE HERALD of May
IA. 1t will be complete in four parts.
The contents Of this second volume
include Microscopy, a chapter on
The Body Machine and Its Work"
g. e., the human body), a succinct
but very comprehensive statement as
to How Darwinism Stands To-day"
and then three detailed chapters on
Natural History. dealing with birds.
mammals and the insect world. The
final chapter in the volume passes
to The Science of the Mind" and
treats of the new" psychology.
psycho-analysis and the subcon-
scious.
Like its predecessor this volume
is very amply illustrated, with sew
eral fine plates in color and scores
of drawings and photographs, some
of the last, especially in the Natural
History chapters, being extraordi-
nary pictures.

New York. Indeed, there have been
strikes in Kansas, not only despite
the new law but because of it; so
that it is at least not conclusive as
yet that the law will finally prove
suitable even there. Most employers
object to State regulation of condi-
tions of employment quite as vigor-
ously as do trades unions, and ap-
parently those that have approved
the Kansas plan have done so by
way of choosing between two evils.
Since meanwhile the discussion of
some legislative or other public ac-
ton to prevent the growing menace
of strikes continues, Mr.. Huggins's
brief argument in favor of the Kan
sas method is timely and no doubt
The New York herald., 1922-07-02

will be widely read. He makes a
telling case against strikes, and the
contention that the way to prevent
them is to insure justice is lab
stractly) sound enough. Trades
unions and strikes arose in the early
nineteenth century because of condi-
tions that are now generally recog-
nized to have been socially objec-
tionable; if the strike itself is to be
prohibited as unsocial, then the
State logically ought to do some
thing to protect the wage Garner
from the abuses which the strike
was called into existence to remedy.
Whether this country is prepared to
do either at single stroke is de-
cidedly open to doubt.

LABOR AND DEMOCRACY. BY
William L. Higgins. The Macmil-
Ian Company.
TT is rather curious that Mr.. Hug
gins, who is presiding Judge of
the Kansas Industrial Court.
should take pains to assert his belief
that socialism in the present selfish
world is impracticable, when the
Kansas commission of which he
writes possesses and exercises con-
troll over private industry that most
persons would call decidedly social
istic. Mr.. Higgins may believe no
more in the Benthamite individual
ism that is supposed to be the basis
of our economic system than he does
in socialism; at any rate, the law
setting up State power to fix
wages and hours of employment and
to tell employers when they can and
when they cannot discharge men is
a notable departure from individual
ist ideals.
Not that a tincture of socialism
need be considered anything against
the Kansas act. We have picked up
bits of socialism in SO many of our
State and national statutes that
few more are nothing to cavil at.
The Kansas plan will stand or fall.
not according as it reflects economic
theories, but according as it brings
relative industrial peace. If it does
that an occasional injustice, perhaps
even a fundamental injustice, prob
ably will not be deemed TO damn it.
A similar scheme was rejected last
winter in New York because it was
held that such industrial supervision
was not the proper business of the
State; also because its partial sue
cess in an agricultural State was no
very strong evidence that it would
fit a highly industrialized State like
The New York herald., 1922-07-02

outrank the efficiency of the human
mind; our battleships and automatic
guns operate with accuracy and pre-
,cision, but the general human intel
ligence still functions so poorly that
we sometimes consider it worth
while to sacrifice twenty thousand
lives for a few hundred square yards
of mud, or the safety and usefulness
of millions for the doubtful honor of
being supreme in destruction. Mill
tarists have repeatedly defended their
creed by asserting that war opens
ones eyes to the realities OF life:
yet this. contends Mr.. Wingield-
Stratford, is precisely what war does
not do. since its tendency is to leave
the masses so blinded by hatred. fear
and prejudice, so deluded by false
glamour and glory, as to be COM
pletely immured from reality. And
it is largely for this reason that war
constitutes a menace to the very
existence of mankind, for once the
majority were to see it as it is, to
see it stark and naked in all its
hideousness, they would be so
shocked by that contact with reality
that they would straightway discard
their destructive illusions and set
out to free the world from a peril
that looms doubly near because so
few are even dimly conscious of its
presence.

a book of adventures in detecting

it is a lucid, authoritative summary,

the fog out Of the popular mind on
this matter.

A World at the CROSSROADS

FACING REALITY. BY Esme Wing
field-Stratford. George H. Doran
Company.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE
WORLD? BY John D. Works, Bos-
ton. The Stratford Company.
THAT the world to-day is at the
turning point is a fact which
numerous writer's have pointed
out, but it is doubtful whether many
completely realize the gravity of the
situation or the extent of the danger.
The world war has awakened some
to a recognition of the crisis con-
fronting civilization; the postwar
disorganization of Europe has
aroused others to sense of the
peril; the social and industrial dis
turbances in America and abroad
have apprised a certain number of
the writing on the wall-yet on the
whole we remain blindly complacent
to the greatest menace that man
kind has ever faced.
To those who would look at the
facts without blinking the two vol
umes under review are to be recon-
mended. For purposes of conven-
fence Mr.. Works. volume may be
mentioned first, since less need be
Said about it; it is, as the subtitle
states, "a comprehensive study of
present day evils" from labor prob
lens to divorce issues; but it is
hampered by the authors attempt at
all inclusiveness, and therefore
makes but a superficial survey of
conditions. It's chief value consists
in its recognition that there is some
thing vastly and fundamentally
wrong in the world, but it would be
more valuable if the authors point
of view were less conventional, if his
attitude were less narrowly conser-
vative and if he were less inclined to
assume the garb of the preacher.
Facing Reality" on the other
hand. makes a far more keen and
searching analysis of conditions.
Like Mr.. Works, Mr.. Wingfield- STRAIT
ford perceives that the world is at
the crossroads, and his book is in
the nature of an appeal and a warn
ing against a false step at what he
regards as the turning point in
human history. For it is soon to be
determined, the author believes,
whether man is to take the path of
progress and continued achievement
or whether he is to follow in the
footsteps of the brontosaurus and
the megatherium. If he succeeds in
adjusting himself to reality he will
continue to exist and to prosper; if
not. reality will overwhelm him and
he will go the way of the great ex-
tinct reptiles that ruled the earth
some millions of years ago and
vanished because they could not con-
form to the changing facts of life.
During the last century or two
human life has undergone a
tremendous change which thus far
has proved too great for human
adaptability. Mechanical contriv-
ances have transformed the relation
of man to nature and to his fellow
creatures; they have set in his hands
a genie's lamp which may be utilized
either for his advancement or for
his destruction; and thus far. unlike
the fictitious people of Samuel But
ler's "Erewhon," he has not per-

THE SHANTUNG QUESTION. By
Ge-Zay Wood. Fleming H. Revell
Company.
A LTHOUGH the Shantung ques-
n ton is generally considered
to have been settled at the
Washington conference, the author
of this volume believes that it has
not been finally erased from the
slate of international politics and
that much remains to be done before
Shantung can be completely restored
to China. There is no guarantee,
observes Mr.. Wood, that friction will
be absent in the operation Of the
joint commissions in whose hands
the restoration of the province re-
poses; and while the successful
execution of the agreement depends
entirely upon. the good faith of the
parties to it. yet there is a stony

Presumption. Feb. 4.-The regu-
lar monthly business meeting of
the Woman's Foreign Missionary
society was held Thursday after
noon, at the home of Mrs. Reinhold

vided into four groups, which repre-
sent the four seasons, each lady
belonging to the group or season
which contains the month of her
birthday, and each of these groups
is to be held responsible for its
share of the program and entertain
ment.
The lesson for study was on the
subject of India, and was conducted
by Mrs. E. J. Otto. Miss Harriette
Clarke took charge of the mystery
box questions, assisted by Miss Sus-
annah Clarke. The service for the
reception of members was given by
the officers of the society for two
new members, who were taken in.
these members being Mrs. Robert
David and Mrs. NJ. d. wicker. At
the close of the program there was
an hour given over to social con-
versation, during which a dainty
lunch was served by the hostess,
assisted by Mrs. M. d. Zwicker.

ERIE Men serve
annual SUPPER
Especial Correspondence

Erie, Feb. 4.-The annual supper
given by the Mems class of the
Erie Methodist Sunday school
Thursday evening, was a fine sue
cess, and the attendance good, con-
sidering the intense cold and wind.
The men proved themselves to be
adopts, as the affair was managed
entirely by them, while their bet
ter halves enjoyed the luxury of
looking on. An oyster stew was
served for the first course, A. B.
Robinson serving as chef, assisted
by E. L. Francis, and the soup was
excellent, Mr.. Robertson winning
much praise. The coffee, made by
Z. l.. Wait, was also pronounced
exceptionally good. Rolls, pickles,
celery, etc. were served for sec
ond and third courses, and while
the cakes were doubtless made by
the wives of the men, they were
cut by A A. Matthews in neat gen.
erous slices. The men as walters
and dishwashers were equally pro-
ficient in their line. The gross re-
ceipts from all sources were $5S.48.
