To The Editor:

The following is a clipping
/ took out of a Brisbane,
Australia, newspaper, January
of 1915:
cit would be heartening in
deed to America to learn that
the job of beating the Japs is
a less lonely task than some
times appears. - Colonel Nc
Cormick's Chicago Tribune.
Sure he lifts his quill with
a ready will,
and he makes
monstrous thud;
He never will shrink to spill
his ink, and
he needn't spill his
blood;
The Aussies and Yanks will
give their thanks,
as they squelch through
jungle mud,
To Mccormick
in Bougainville we are
scrapping still, but
the tale is never told
by Mccormick

be the First Anniversary of
The Chicago Star. May its in
fluence to help make Chicago,
and of course, the entire world,
a better place for mankind to
live, increase with its years.
Tell your friends about the
Chicago Star.

Och, Colonel, dear, come
over here, and
Wen find a gun to hold
for Mccormick

"We'n let you pass through
the kunai grass,
where crosses stand in
row;
From both the sides of
Pacific tides they
came and smashed the
foe:
When you see that place
you'll shut your face,
and Wen hear a lot less
blow from
Mccormick"

Reviewers notebook
sIums in land Of milk and honey
gave birth to The Children

The basic difference between
the slunns of the U.S.A. and the
slums of Europe is that there is
less excuse for them in "the land
of milk and honey"
1t is in the sIums of New York
that Fast has rooted his Chill
DREN. His latest-published novel
was written in 1895, when he was
working dozen-odd hours day
in factory. 1t was his first book.
Whit Burnett published it in Story
magazine in March of 1937-de-
voting the entire issue to it.
IT is beautifully written and
tightly woven story of the chill
dren of the slums. The dialogue
is genuine, tough, hard, coarse,
warm and human. as are his char
acters. The children are minia-
lures of the adults that surround
