can Geographical Society Special Publica-
tion No. 16. BY James Truslow Adams and
others. Edited by John X. Wright. New
York: American Gcogra phical Society.
THE title of this book is revival In 1884
vas published in London William Woods
New England Prospect" whose purpose, given
by the author in his foreword, was to perfect"
sCme very imperfect reports about New England
and to contradict many scandalous and false
reports" The editor claims similar motives for
the present volume. Since 1884 many changes
have taken place in New England most of them
the result Of the Fundamental change in racial
stock. New Englanders are no longer almost
entirely of English descent. One of the writer's
in this symposium, j. L. Hypes, says: More
than third Of all the farm folk of New Eng
land are of foreign stock" that is not Of origi-
nal English stock. The chapter New England's
Industrial Prospects," by Charles E. Artman,
says Of the immigrant population in the manu-
featuring centers: 1.-The drain the native
New England stock from Western migration in
past decades has been met in turn by large in
fusons Of immigrant blood from Europe and
from Canada. These new elements are keeping
up the vitality Of pioneer New England and are
absorbing In remarkable measure its ideals and
standards. They are making a flexible and
plastic people, perhaps somewhat less rigid and
austere than the old New Englanders, and often
more amenable to change and to new IDEAS"
The 20 articles included in this discussion Of
New Englands present and future, by econo-
msts historians social workers. engineers, for
esters, business men, chemists architects sociol-
ogists. geographers and political scientists
cover nearly all possible phases of the subject.
There are, however, some omissions, at least as
far IS specific discussion is concerned. The
subjects Of Americanzation, education domestic
economy and ethical development might well
have been treated In additional articles. Social
Service In Boston" Is discussed by Roy NJ Cush-
man, but . survey Of social service throughout
the other cities and the rural districts Of New
England would have been valuable. There are.
however limits to the possibilities Of one book
and this does not pretend to be an encyclopedia.
James Truslow Adams opens the general subject
with a chapter on THE Historical Background"
Other chapters deal with the geography, regions
and landscapes; industrial prospects, unemploy-
ment, types Of manufa cture: agricultural pro-
duction, food supply. marketing; forestry. both

STYLE CHATS
With ALMA ARCHER

Gentlemen in the aggregate are
little tinid about departing from
the conservative channels of dress
mimicry for fear Of being called =
racehorse fancier. But this fear
gradually is being overcome, ac-
cording to George Haskett, tailor
to the upper class, who first made
his reputation by fitting soldiers
like Major General Hugh A. Drum
of Washington the way soldiers
ought to be fitted.
With spring virtually in our laps
and banks closed more often than
open, there is a falling off of the
directors suit( demand for) and in
creasing interest in more colors and
more pattern in sack suits. There's
been a tendency to too much STAN
dardization and uniformity in sack
suit fabrics. Diversity of pattern
and individuality in the making are
the trend. Incidentally, a good
tailor can make a horse with an
awkward, distressing gait ride prac-
tically like a baby carriage, Has
kett will tell you, by simply cut
ting and sewing riding breeches
properly.

MRS. MOONLIGHT REVIEWED FOR
CLUB BY MRS CHARLES ANDERSON

Another of the delightful sociaI
affairs which the Ten Thousand
club is sponsoring for its members
only took place yesterday afternoon

esting program was given under
the direction Of Mrs. Ross T. Hick-
cox.
Mrs. Moonlight, that delicate
moving fantasy written by Ben
Levy and which played last season
Ia New York, was presented by
Mrs. Charles Z. Anderson.
AS Mrs. HickcoX expressed it in
her Introductory remarks, the play
is "tenderly sentimental" and Mrs.
Anderson presented it in all its
charm and appeal. Her character
ization CT the lovely, eternally
youthful and glamorous Mrs. Moon
light was particularly fine. Hav-
ing as its theme the tragedy of re-
naming eternally youthful which
Gertrude Atherton emphasized in a
more vigorous fashion in Black
Oxen, the play is a gentle, tender
romance and as Mrs. Anderson
Sympathetically brought the read
ing to its moving climax her au-
dience was close to tears, SO ex-
cellent was her portrayal.
Between the acts, Mrs. Hugh T.
