“Meat TaKes An

al**ut the cost of something

Summer health and strength
come from a meatless diet.

THE NEXT STEP IN DEMOCRACY,
by R. W. Sellar*, Ph.D., the most
reasonable, philosophical exposi
tion of socialism that has appeared
for some time.
“Periods of transition follow
ju clods of relative balance and sta
hility, and It is during these eras of
change that the air is full of sug
gestions," rays 11. \V. Sellars, Ph.D.,
In his new book. "The Next Sfep in
Democracy.'* Hu ox plains the c on
stant and never ending warfare be
tween conservatism and raelicalistn
which always exists, and by which
the speed and direction of progress
Is determined.
Socialism stands for a state of
tntnd, something to be felt rather
than analyzed, for it ''consists of
tendencies which have not yet se
cured complete formulation." he
says It is so big and vital that it
will necessarily lee slow to attain
self expression.
We believe that Prof. Sellars has
the right id* a mien he says that
Socialism Is a movement rather than
a position; as much a means of dis
covery and of social growth as a
program. Jts e*ntlre idea is that hu
man welfare may stand as the para
mount Issue of government; that we*
may leiurn to our own principle* of
a government of, by and for the peo
ple*. in-'rad of the plutocracy of pri
vate profit which now Is threatening
to engulf us. It seeks to remove the
"unholy emphasis or* wealth" and
elenie - the* rights of these institu
tions which have robbed us of equal
eq.portunity for development. In Its
* s enee it is the Americanism of the
Declaration of Independence brought
down to lit more ne*aily present con
dlt lons.
Py seeing In Socialism a fluid
movement, not yet and prolubly nev
e r to he wholly crystallized. Prof.
Sellars has robbed its critics of most
of their ammunition. This is the*
best bonk on the subject which we
have* Hern and Mic higan is to be* con

with nice little morals, fcut more

Just why things are ns th»*y are,
I we nre told in the ' That's Why

when the sun comes up. why tho
toad has ugly warts; why the* moun

cus and interesting things have
come about because old mother na

nar\ selfishness such as you chil

limes we know it, and sometimes we
don’t. "\V hy the cat tails wear vel

GERMAN ATROCITIES, by J. H.

the German is to see F lire pc in

-SONGS OF A VAGROM ANGEL, by
I Elea Barker. Poems which Miss
Barker says are not hers, but were
given to her one night by a "sylph,
deva, angel or whatever it may
be,” a presence which came to her,
and seemed to use her as a vehi
cle to express its thought.
"Tears in your eyes, poor infant?
T'w.is ( nix a touch of your own
1 Father’.** hand.
He , ought to caress you with the
'life giving contract of knowledge
and heait brook;
But knowing not tho weight of His

These poems, written in blank
verse, are many of thorn 1 lOjl tit if 111,
j and have an unearthly sense in the

pieces a flower or trying to explain

I shed ils fragrance on tho air of
many planets. 1 fly from love as
the dew flies from tho noon day sun.

SPANISH IN A WEEK, by Theodore

Whether one believes !n tho light

attractive little book which looks as

print is large and the verbs look less
formidable than any verbs we ever

something besides confusion for ihe
