The noted French author. GulZot'
defined civilization as follows:
"Ciyilization, therefore, in its most
general idea, is an improved conuuOh
of man, resulting from the estapLsn-
ment of social order IN place OF ihe
individual independence and la"iesS-
moss of the savage or barbarouS NE
1t may exist in various degrees, - -
susceptible of continual progress
Mathew Arnold. in his essay, "ClVl-
1ization in the United States" said:
"Nhat is civilization? 1t is the hu-
manization of man in society; the sat
1sfaction for him, in society, OF the
true law of human nature
There might be some confusion as
10 what the French mean by I'M
proved condition of man, but there
can be no doubt as to the American
meaning of what constitutes human
ization of man"
of the Son of Man when asked: VINO
is my neighbour" 1t was not the
priest or the Levite, but the man VINO,
finding a sufferer. stopped the pursuit
of his own interests to minister TO the
victim of robbers.
With the light of the American DELI
milton of civilization as guide how
fares the world today
x y
It is eight years since Russian
Communists took possession of the
"civilization' of Russia. The cruel
tyranny of the Car had been ended
with regicide. The ATTEMPT of ker-
ensky to establish a republic had
been defeated by Lenin and Trotsky,
who promised greater reforms.
The Communists would abolish all
private rights in property, all rights
1,nfY
sanctity of the family relationship,
all reverence for the Deity, all ranks
and privileges. Money would no
longer be used, for all property was
to belong to the government, and
the agents of the Soviet government,
exercising absolute monopoly, would
transact all business.
Theirs was to be an advanced civ
ilization. 1t resulted in chaos, in
spite of the execution of thousands
of Russians who opposed the plan.
Industry was dying. In 1929, ac-
scording to Russian official reports,
AGRICULTURAL production was only ~
per cent of pre-war production and
Industrial production only 80 per
cent. 1t required from 179 to 31S
men to produce what 100 had pro
duced before the war. Observers
agreed that without personal reward
there was no incentive to work, and
the idea that all things were in COM
mon, and controlled by the state,
drove ambition out Of the hearts of
the masses.
Finally, on the brink Of chaos,
Lenin modified his original plan and
introduced his new economic policy,
known as "NEP," permitting private
enterprise under government control,
but taxing profits at least so per cent.
Soviet Russia today stands outside
the pale of civilized nations. She is
plotting to bring confusion and re-
bellion and revoluntion in all coun-
tries and snarling because civilized
nations refuse diplomatic recognition.

simplicity, but yet traditional, the
facade of extreme simplicity and re-
finement, relieved only by Lawrie's
superb bronzes and by sparse and
delicate stone cutting" He exercised
IN the choice of marble for this build

to give the interior color and warmth,
and in this he succeeded, through the
collaboration of painters and deco
rators sympathetic with his ideals.

O. Was VANITY Fair" considered
a success at the time it was written?-
B. d.

sented by a numbered ticket. As each
ticket is taken from the machine it
registers automatically at the top of
the machine, showing at all times
just how many tickets are sold on
each horse. The bettor can therefore
figure just what amount is in the
pool and after deducting the 3 per
cent (the clubs commission), and di-
viding by the number Of tickets sold
on his horse, he will know just ho~-
much he stands to win II his horse
comes in first.

AS every one knows, to Cram, Good
hue and Ferguson stands the credit
of reviving the Gothic and beautifully
interpreting it in contemporary church
buildings in America. They used this
same style in an entirely new manner
in the design of the buildings for
West Point. But Mr.. Goodhue was
not one who limited himself to a single
form of expression. His buildings for
the San Diego Exposition were in the
Spanish mission style; his Academy of
Sciences building in this city is clas-
sic; his design for the Nebraska State
Capitol was, it is said, a style all his
own, essentially modern. His chapel
for the University of Chicago wit
messed original development along
other lines, so also does his design for
the new art museum at Honolulu
shortly to be built. He was an icono-
claSt and yet one who upheld and Gre
ated high ideals. He despised repeti-
ton; he had no patience with those
who copied or even those who bor-
rowed prodigiously.
He was a great believer in the
crafts, and the story of his collabora-
ton with Lee Lawrie in the sculp-
tural and bronze work for the Acad-
emy of Sciences in this city and on
the Nebraska Capitol is one which
all should read and remember, an
example Of perfect cooperation and
fellowship in the arts.

When asked to design this building
