Bill Edwards, the famous Princeton football player and touch, wrote this to Lawrence Perry (Fair Play) about his first boys' book: "The Full Back" is the real thing in the way of a college story.

"England's Efforts," by Mrs. Humphrey Ward, has just appeared in a new edition which, in addition to other changes, contains a final chapter which carries her account of England's effort through the Jutland sea battle and up to the present Somine offensive. It gives an astonishing first-hand information of the increase and output of British munitions and the growing fighting efficiency of England's army. It is the fourth edition of a book which Joseph H. Choate says. In his Introduction, he thinks will convince anybody that England is doing all she can, and that she will win the war.

Of the Greeks and Romans, may no longer be worshiped as divine personages, yet the names of many of them are not known.
