MAXIM
GORKY
For those who wish an understanding of Russia and to whom the drama of Russian
life is a source of intensest interest, there is one writer who stands towering over
Russian literature today, its undoubted master. This is Maxim Gorky ; and his
writings stamp him as perhaps the one of all Russian writers who most completely
depicts the reality of life in the icy, northern land. His career has been extra-
ordinarily varied, a list of his occupations reads like the life history of one of his
own fictional characters ; painter, peddler, scullery boy, gardener, watchman, baker's
apprentice, revolutionary leader and writer of great novels! A man of the people;
he depicts those suffering millions, ground beneath the cruel wheels of autocracy,
yet with a spark of hope ever glowing and firing them
to the century-long struggle for freedom of which
Gorky himself has been a leader. His books are tense
with the nervous horror of a down-trodden people, the
characters displaying an amazing reality, human men
and women in the grip of love, hate, greed, ambition,
bravery, cowardice, poverty, disease. It is a whole
world that Gorky depicts ; and every event in it, every
twist of character is shown with a clarity and faithful-
ness to exact detail that are unsurpassed.
MOTHER is Maxim Gorky's greatest novel. In it he tells the
story of a Russian Mother, whose love for her son transformed
her into a valiant, irrepressible fighter for freedom. The book
sums up the spirit of the struggle against the Czar's autocracy ;
it is the perfect expression of the Russian will-to-freedom,
which constantly was undermining the Imperial structure. An
amazing novel, real as life itself, as thrilling and as moving.
In it Russia stands forth in a flood of light. $2.00 net

SAINT TERESA
Henry Sydnor Harrison
Once again, and more emphatically than ever before, Mr. Harrison
shows himself in SAINT TERESA not only a creator of unique
plots but a master craftsman in the deftness, the artistry with which
he handles his material. As a presentation of a very modern type
of girl SAINT TERESA is fascinating, as a picture of modern
business it is illuminating, as a study of the eternal conflict of the
sexes, it is absorbing. But best of all it's a mighty fine story told
as only Harrison could tell it and completely satisfying, from the
first page to the last. $1.90.

Colonel Repington
During the period covered by this continuation of his famous diary,
Colonel Repington visited most of the capitals of Europe' and talked
with the leading statesmen and men of affairs in each country. Add
to this that it ends with a first-hand account of the Washington Con-
ference and a description of American scenes and persons, written
with all the frankness, the intimacy, the unreserve for which the
author is famous, it will be seen that here, indeed, is a book that will
be anxiously awaited, eagerly read, and widely discussed by the
American public. $5.00.

Founded by F. Leypoldt
January 7, 1922
"/ hold crcr\ man a debtor to his profession,

rr<v/7v countenance and profit, so ought they of
duty to endeavor themselves, by tray of amends,
to be a help and ornament thereunto." — BACON.
Half Century— Prospect
THE PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY with this issue
begins what its present conductors hope
will prove a second half century of use-
fulness, as its present editor, who has been
at the helm for most of its years, records his
hope that the successors of present chief and
staff may hold to the same aims and ideals and
win from a book -trade of vaster extent and
prosperity, the appreciation for which the
PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY gives thanks to its sup-
porters thru the years past.
In the twenty-five hundred issues of the
past fifty years, aggregating one hundred
thousand pages, the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY has
sought in the development of successive years
to give increasing service to the trade and
help in the leadership toward greater useful-
ness and larger prosperity and this aim it
will continue to cherish in the earnest belief
and sincere hope that the American book-trade
iaces an era of service and prosperity far
beyond its present attainments. The facts that
the collections of all the public libraries in
the country do not amount to one book per
capita of our population and that the total
production of books, Bibles included, from
American presses does not reach one volume
each year per capita, are sufficient evidence
that the great field of book distribution has
so far been harrowed rather than cultivated
and that abundant margin of opportunity is
still before us.
A difficulty in the way of the sale of good
books has been the amount of reading time
claimed by the newspapers and other period-
icals, especially by the popular weeklies and
monthlies of wide circulation. Such reading
should, nevertheless, be the bridge to reading
of a more permanent character and to the
sale of a larger number of books, provided
American publishers are ready to do their
part. That part must be done by studying
the taste of the public, providing a literature
which will meet and elevate that taste, issuing
books in a style and at a reasonable price
which will cause the supply to increase demand
and pushing forward promotion work in be-
half of book distribution in which the book-
trade should cordially co-operate with and
have the cordial co-operation of the libraries
thruout the country. In the past few years
notable advances have been made in this co-
operation, altho the increased price of books,
necessitated by the increased cost of printing
and until recently of paper, has stood seriously
in the way of the greater use of books.
In this development of the future the PUB-
LISHERS' WEEKLY hopes and plans to do its
part. It recognizes that a trade journal must
both follow and lead, in sympathy with pres-
ent methods, and looking forward to a future
of better methods and larger achievements.
Those who thru its columns are doing what
they can in this service will hope that when
the labor of each comes to an end their suc-
cessors at the end of the first century of the
existence of the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY may
have earned in larger proportion the apprecia-
tion which the book-trade has increasingly
shown for the efforts of the past.
The College Text Book
Problem
AFIELD of book distribution that is
important in its gross amount but dif-
ferent in almost all its aspects from
the general trade distribution is that of the
college textbooks. These do not have just
the same channels for selling as the grade
books, which are in a large percentage of
cases sold on state contract. There "is much
more individuality in the colleges in their
selection of texts ; aad the problem of pre-
senting these texts and of getting smooth-
running distribution after they are accepted
is a difficult one. We print in this number
a paper on this subject by Frederick D. Hart-
man, a previous contributor, who feels that
the dealer could take, to the advantage of all,
a much more prominent part in the promo-
tion plans in this field. Mr. Hartman's
experience has been in Canada, and the
PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY would welcome further
discussion of this important problem.

1 . 1'. Dutton in His Ninrtx-
Sccond Year
Ol |) r.rmis ..[ the veteran E. P. Dntton
will U- nl.nl to know iliat. with his
l.Jrth.: ; lu- riiUT> »n h«S
,,r. He is still in health and
and with keen interest in affairs, tho
with hcarintr somewhat and vision slightly im-
paired. It still delights him to recall the
olden times in the Broadway store at \\ash-
itiKf>n I'lacr. where A. D. S. Randolph was
ml the hook-trade in general was
rontercd in the neighborhood, tho these old
times are seen thru a vista of years which
few men have known. He retains his old
home at 24 West ;ist Street, within walking
distance of the Fifth Avenue store which he
still occasionally visits, and not long since he
courteously opened the door as a youthful
visitor of seventy-three departed and said
good-bye with the cheerful word that he had
told Mr. Macrae at luncheon that he had
hegun to consider himself old but meant to
start a reformation at once and not feel
old any more.
Mr. Macrae has had his residence with Mr.
Dutton, while the daughter has been at col-
nd the two Macrae boys have been mak-
ing r< 'ke their places in the Dutton
concern, to which one of them, John Macrae,
Jr.. has come during the past year, while the
younger boy, Elliott Beach Macrae, will take
up his work in October, 1922.
One of Mr. Dutton's most interesting remi-
niscences is of the lad who nearly forty years
ago came to him from Virginia. A naval
officer living at Washington entered the store
and asked if place could not be found there for
a lad of his acquaintance who wanted to find
opportunity in New York. Mr. Dutton saw
no reason why he should look with favor upon
a youth from so far away. The officer made
a yearly visit to Xew York and came a sec-
ond time to the Dutton store, but again re-
ceived a negative reply. A third year he came
again and snid that if the boy could be given
a chance he would make good for the hoy's
expense, if he did not make good for himself.
Mr. Dutton yielded, and at eighteen young
Macrae came into the Dutton employ under
the immediate supervision of Charles A. Clapp,
the junior partner. The lad frequently took
a bundle of catalogs home with him at night.
despite the renu.nstranre of the other juniors
that the 'lay's work was ended. He told them
that he wanted to learn all that he could about
the stock and bookselling, and it came about
that when Mr. CJapp wanted particulars about
the stock it was to young Macrae that he
always turned. There came sudden need for
a traveler to make a western round, and when
Macrae was piven the opportunity he made
good by bringing in a bigger order than any
of his predecessor^ Then came the need fo-
<omeonr to make a journey across sea. and
again it was youne Macrae who had won the
chance. At once he made friends in London
and was wlri-.med. not only to the offices, 'nit
The Publishers' Weekly
to the homes of London publishers and began
to establish the relations abroad which have
since flowered into so great a development
for the Dutton house.
Mr. Dutton feels that it was a special Provi-
dence which sent the lad to him, for in these
declining years— if the adjective can be used
. ,f a man still looking upward — Mr. Macrae
has been his mainstay as now the active head
of the successful and vastly increased busi-
ness of E. P. Dutton & Company, as well as
a close personal friend. It is not always that
such reward comes to a man for good deeds
as has come to Mr. Dutton in this happy
relationship.
Photo-Engraving Lock-out
THE agreement between the employers and
employees in the photo-engraving field of
New York came to an end on December
3 1st, and, as no agreement had been reached for
an extension of arrangements, the shops were
closed and notices posted which shut down the
work for about fifteen hundred men. The em-
ployers insisted that a new arrangement must
be made that provided for sortie lower scales of
wage or an extension of the working week to
forty-eight hours. The men contend that the
present wage scale is fair and must be continued
if they are to keep at work. The strike has
affected only the commercial establishments, as
the newspaper engravers are under another con-
tract. The dispatches from Chicago from the
officials of the Photo Engravers' Union say that
they expect the lock-out will become general and
that action similar to that in New York may
be expected next week.
It was in this industry in New York where
the Union claimed for a time the right to set
the price at which the employers should sell
their product to the consumer. They did this on
the argument that union men who want the best
conditions could not afford to work in a shop
that sold its product for less than a certain
fixed figure and that therefore in the interest
of their craft they had the right to dictate the
price to consumers. Thlis situation, which would
if carried into other industries have revolution-
ized American industry, was made illegal by a
bill passed in the last New York legislature.
Shops now find that even with these discounts
they cannot hold the business in New York un-
der the present wage scale. The difficulty in
handling business, they say, has been increased
by the fact that the present wage scale of fifty
dollars is increased in practice by the fact that
members of the Union will not consent to work
at this figure, and the shops claim that when
they telephone for a man to Union headquarters
the report is made that there are no men to
work at the contract figure, as all are demand-
ing more. This same reply is made, so the
employers say, even tho it is welt known that
well over a hundred men have been out of
employment.
Conferences are now in progress between the
Photo Engravers' Board of Trade and the
Photo Engravers' Union Number One, and it is
hoped that a settlement wfill shortly be reached.

The College Text Book Situation
By Frederick Deane Hartman
ii'T'HE most persistently and consistently
I annoying source of perpetual unsatis-
factonness 1 ever thought could exist,"
was the reply one college professor gave me
in answer to my inquiry as to what he thought
of the present methods of supplying college
text books."
"An infernal nuisance — requiring continual
attention — lots of complaint and n9 money!"
This is what the dealer who supplied the in-
stitution with which the above mentioned pro-
fessor was associated had to say of the situa-
tion.
"College text books ! I would give anything
if we didn't have to publish them. There i->
more trouble and less money in that department
of our business than in all of the rest of the
departments put together." This came from
the head of the publishing house which supplied
the majority of the books used by the above
mentioned dealer.
I have given these quotations because they
quite well represent the respective points of
view held by the persons chiefly concerned in
the college text book question. It should per-
haps be added that probably the view expressed
by this publisher is only held by those pub-
lishers who do not specialize on educational
publications and have relatively few college
texts on their lists.
W'ere this the situation with any other line
of book publishing the line would be promptly
dropped, but. of course, it is recognized that
college text books are essential and must be
supplied. The responsibility therefore prima-
rily lies with the publishers to study the causes
of all this dissatisfaction and do what may be
possible to remedy the situation.
The first point to come up for consideration
is an analysis of the different methods of col-
lege text book distribution now in vogue.
(a) The most usual method of handling
college texts is for some dealer, who specially
caters to the student trade, to assume the re-
sponsibility of keeping informed as to the books
recommended for adoption in the various
courses, and nlso assume some of the responsi-
bilitv of introducing the publishers' new texts
to the professors and securing new adoptions.
(b) In a number of instances the institu-
tional authorities appoint from one to three
deserving and needy students for period? vary-
ing from one to four years to handle this
business. As a rule, the institution assumes
responsibility for the accounts and keeps the
records. The students, of course, must arrange
to do all the work outside their study hours
and their interest in the development of the
business is only temporary.
(c) In other instances an appointee is
chosen by the institution who holds the position
more or less permanently. Such a man is as-
sured of all the institutional natronage and is
Lruaranteed the co-operation of the professors.
Such an appointee must, as a rule, supply his
own financial backing. He feels himself to
'be in a very independent position, for he is
practically protected from any competition.
(d) In the case of many smaller institu-
tions, particularly those located in small com-
munities, the institution itself does the pur-
chasing of the texts and sells them to the stu-
dents.
(e) In a very few instances at the begin-
ning of each term the publishers have a rep-
resentative on hand who sells directly to the
students their requirements. Between the rep-
resentative's visits, the professors purchase
direct any books needed. This method of prac-
tice is now quite rare.
(f) In many places there have been tried
various forms of "Students' Co-operative
Stores" in which the capital is drawn from
the students, who purchase their tickets varying
in cost from five to twenty dollars each. At
the end of each academic year the students
receive that share of the profits which the
number of tickets to which they hold would
entitle them. It may be added that due to
inefficient management the rebates are usually
microscopic.
There are several other different methods in
practice for handling college texts, but they
are all more or less modifications of one of
these already outlined.
We shall now examine the manner in which
these various methods work in actual practice.
Let us start with the ease in which texts are
distributed thru a retail dealer. Such a dealer
may or may not be a lover of books with a
sense of discrimination and literary discern-
ment. Most generally he is not — so that he
does not find a very sympathetic listener when
he goes to introduce new texts to a professor,
and tries to procure new adoptions. It is hard
to say whether it is better to have a dealer
with literary tastes or not, for so frequently
those who have prove a dismal failure as a
business executive. At any rate, a combina-
tion of business ability and keen literarv dis-
cernment is exceedingly rare. This dealer
whom we are describing handles the publica-
tions of a dozen or more publishers. As a
rule, he does all the buying himself. He car-
ries a broad stock, including countless station-
ery items, and makes a strong play for general
trade to supplement the very seasonal college
text business. He is the direct recioient of all
complaints of the students which chiefly refer
to the cost of the books. An average student
unhesitatingly brands as a robber anyone
charging over two dollars for a book. The
dealer is very apt to become guided in his
recommendations to professors by the retail
price and thus frequently urges the adoption
of a very inferior book, thus arousing the sus-
picion of the professor, who feels there must
be some graft in the air, and promptly loses
i8
confidence in the dealer altogether. This ten-
dency towards a suspicious attitude toward the
dealer by professors is further fostered by
the tact that the dealer must charge professors
hill list price lor books, whereas the professors
iiml that 1>> communicating direct with the
publishers they either get the desired books
free or, at least less, at a 20 per cent discount.
The dealer docs not maintain a staff whicli
will permit him to give good educational serv-
ice. It is quite common for dealers to accept
order- tin- name of the publisher of
which they do not know. If the firm receiving
this order does not pick it up for the dealer,
then the matter usually is dropped, and unless
the customer placing the order does not inquire
he will never hear of the matter again.
In the cases in which text book business «s
handled by students appointed by the institu-
tional authorities the objections cited in the
case of the ordinary dealer all hold the more
strongly, as such appointees have only a tempo-
rary interest in the business and are very re-
stricted in the amount of time they have avail-
able.
When a permanent appointment is made by
the institution the greatest trouble arises from
the appointee's sense of security in his posi-
tion. He does not feel the necessity of learning
far enough in advance the requirements of the
classes. He knows that if one book is not
available when the time comes another
will be used, and in either case they will be
supplied thru him. In short, he places the
entire responsibility upon the publisher of keep-
ing a stock of all the books listed bound up
and ready for shipment. The publishers, how-
ever, have taken rather a broader view of the
situation, and in order to keep the costs of
texts down have tried to anticipate the exact
requirements and not have the expense of enor-
mous stocks in their warehouses.
The remaining instances cited under para-
graphs "d," "e," and "f" are so closely related
to the preceding case, in so far as their objec-
tionable features are concerned, that we need
not find it necessary to repeat.
The whole difficulty lies in the fact that in
the rapid development of the universities, pub-
lishing houses, and dealers each has considered
its own problems alone without giving proper
consideration to the requirements and develop-
ment of the other.
With the great increase in the number of
elective r<>iir-rs in the college and university
came, of course, the demand for many more
and more varied texts. In order to meet this
demand the publishers necessarily had to make
provision to stnclv the situation and also create
a department to cover the field. With the
creation of a new course at n university ami
the necessity of a suitable text being supplied,
a publisher undertakes the responsibility. He
must, in order not to lose money, get the book
into use elsewhere and originally put it up to
the dealer. Tn this reeard it must be said
that it would seem that many dealers have
hwi rather short-sighted, for it can be truth-
fully stated that rrry Trry few are the college
textual adoptions procured as a result of anv
The Publishers' Weekly
dealer's efforts. In the first place, as before
stated, the dealer may not be fitted for such
work — not have the time, etc. At any rate,
the promotion work has been left entirely to
the publisher who does his work thru the
college professors. It is, of course, out of the
question to expect a college professor to buy
every book he may consider for use — he is
accordingly presented with a copy. This prac-
tice is a great source of annoyance to most
dealers, who cannot see that in reality the
professors are the salesmen for college texts
and the more that is done to get texts into the
hands of professors the greater is bound to be
the demand for those books.
Coincident with the growth of the dealers'
disapproval of this attitude of publishers to-
wards college professors has been the growth
of the attitude on the part of dealers that all
promotion work and responsibility for the crea-
tion of demand for all books shall rest with the
publisher. The publishers have more or less
come to recognize this as the case and accepted
the situation. This necessitates the publishers
carrying a staff capable of handling this work
and the reason there still exists so much dis-
satisfaction is because the publishers do not
assume full reponsibility for the college text
service, as the retailer maintains more or less
the attitude that his territory is being en-
croached upon. The very fact that most of
the publicity on texts goes out directly from
the publisher tends to make the professors
forget the dealer's place in the general book
distribution.
There can be, it seems to me, two general
solutions. One would be very difficult to ac-
complish and mean a very radical change,
namely, to have the retailers take over the
educational promotion of all the publishers.
To bear this additional expense they would, of
course, have to procure the books at much
lower rates, for in the present situation it is
very difficult for the dealer to net much, if
anything, on the strictly educational lines.
The more practical plan for improving the
situation would be to have an understanding
with the professors and dealers that the service
on college texts should come exclusively thru
the educational department of the publishers,
who would do all the work of getting the in-
formation on future requirements, securing new
adoptions, etc. When the educational depart-
ment received the information relative to texts
to be used, etc., the matter could be referred
to the respective dealer and the stock for-
warded. It may be objected that this is vir-
tually the present practice, but that is not
true, because the final word in the matter of
adoption is left with the professor to give the
dealer. The professors are inclined to neglect
this until rather late, as thev know the dealer
is always available and can be seen any time —
or else they think the publisher will see the
dealer, etc. The one sure thins: is that con-
fusion results. Tn my proposed suggestion it
would be necessary first to make clear to pro-
fessors the real necessity of the publisher beini?
in constant possession of the nroeress of the
college courses and knowing long in advance
January 7, 1922
the book to be recommended and so far as
possible the number required. It is true that
publishers are inclined to forget that a pro-
fessor cannot tell exactly how many pupils
will elect a given course or, even so, how many
of these will be supplied with second-hand
texts. However, by co-operation the require-
ments can be pretty well approximated. In
this plan the dealer would be absolutely re-
lieved of any responsibilitv of getting adoptions
or anticipating requirements. As to the actual
method in which the publishers and professors
should carry on their co-operation, it would seem
that matters would be expedited if each college
department gave a monthly report of the texts
used in the various courses, the reference books
recommended, the relative satisfaction of books
used, new recommendations and the number of
students in the course.
True, this requires considerable time to be
given by the professors, but their co-operation
could unquestionably be procured if It were
made clear to them that such effort would
result in better service and cheaper books.
The publishers in the possession of such in-
formation could have no excuse for not being
prepared and the dealer could have no com-
plaint against the commission on educational
books, with all the responsibility removed. It
would, in effect, amount to their receiving the
books on consignment.
Copyright Discussion
THE mid-winter meetings of the American
Library Association with important action
by the Council met at Chicago* on Decem-
ber 2O.th, 3Oth and 3ist. Two resolutions of-
fered, with consequent discussion and decision,
were of special interest to the book-trade, that
on library revenues and that on copyright legis-
lation. The special committee on library rev-
enues, with Samuel H. Ranck, librarian of
Grand Rapids, as Chairman, brought in a reso-
lution containing recommendations in regard to
a better standard of library appropriations, put-
ting the weight of the Association's opinion
back of a plan advocating at least one dollar
per capita for any community that wanted ade-
quate service. After some discussion as to
whether one dollar per capita would be suit-
able service for both large and small communi-
ties, the resolution was passed in the following
form:
Submitted by Samuel H. Ranck, Chairman.
"The American Library Association believes
that $i per capita, of the population of the
commiunity served, is a reasonable minimum
annual revenue for the library in communities
desiring to maintain a good modern public
library system with trained librarians. This
sum should cover a main library with reading
room facilities, branch libraries and reading
rooms within easy reach o*f all the people, a
registration of card holders equal to at least
thirty per cent of the population, and a con-
siderable collection of the more expensive
books of reference, with a home use of about
five volumes per capita. This allowance of per
capita revenue may need modification in the
case of the very small or very large communi-
ties, or which are otherwise exceptional. Small
communities may often obtain increased library
service for the same money per capita by en-
larging the area of administration. The situa-
tion in large communities is often modified .by
the presence of good endowed libraries free for
public use. Communities desiring their libra-
ries to supply these needs extensively and with
the highest grade of trained service, will find
it necessary to provide a support much larger
than the minimum of $i per capita. This
should cover extension work sufficient to bring
home to the children, the foreign-speaking peo-
ple, business men, artisans, advanced students,
public officials, and in general all classes of the
people, the opportunities that such a library is
not only ready but is able to afford, with a
service that is administered by trained libra-
rians having special knowledge in their par-
ticular departments.
"The Committee recommends that further
study be given to the whole subject of adequate
support for high school and grade school libra-
ries, and for college and university libraries,
to be based on a knowledge of the existing
situation with reference to such libraries."
The copyright situation was given discussion
based on a resolution presented by Dr. M.
Llewellyn Raney, Librarian of Johns Hopkins
University, and Chairman of the A. L. A.
Committee on Book Buying. This resolution
takes issue with the Bill which is about to be
introduced in Congress. Frederic G. Melcher
represented the publishers in the discussion and
argued for the Bill as drawn. All agreed that
the United States should be a member of the
Berne Convention, but the Bill provides that
American publishers shall have full rights to
the American market on any foreign book which
they contract for, and the librarians are against
any feature that will prevent them from buy-
ing any book in any market. The resolution as
drafted and printed below was carried, and
the discussion will be carried before the Con-
gressional Committee.
Resolution Offered by Dr. Raney.
"Whereas, The Authors' League of America
proposes national legislation, including repeal
of the so-called 'manufacturing clause' in the
present copyright law, in order to pave the way
for the United States' entry into the Interna-
tional Copyright Union; and
"Whereas, The American Publishers' Copy-
right League (now the Bureau of Copyright
of the National Association of Book Publish-
ers) went on official record at its last session
as supporting such legislation only on condi-
tion that libraries and persons be prohibited by

Zona Gale Predicts the Novel
of Tomorrow
'«' I "HE chief course of the novel of tcnnor-
1 row is to uncover commonplace beauty, as
today it is uncovering cc/mmonplace ugliness,"
said Miss Zona Gale, the author of "Miss Lulu
Bett," in a talk Sunday evening at Unity Fo-
rum. Montclair, New Jersey.
"Criticism of the new American novel often
amounts to a dislike of the book because it is
not about pleasant people. The person who
dc/es not like a book because he would not
like the people is to be classed with the de-
votee of the motion picture or the barrel or-
gan— for I purposely link those two.
"The hope of the novel today is to see the
least attractive thing. To hate the sinner has
been the old order ; while to hate the sin and
to love the sinner is the word of tomorrow.
The custom of the ncA-elist is to pick out a
single, noble, fallen soul and to idealize him.
The men of the new fiction contend chiefly in
commonplace circumstances and do not always
win.
"Recognition of the value of the common-
place and a tardy turning to native sources ai
supply are characteristics of the present day
novel. The malady of the American novel is
the lack of beauty as a force.
"Our novels are scattered over with beauti-
ful passages, but the warp and woof of beauty
we do not weave. This is the whole reason for
the novel — today to look for ugliness and hate
it ; tomorrow to look for beauty and find it."

Bookselling in Kilts
IT is a dull day nowadays that does not see
a new bookshop started. C. F. B'. tells us
that Newark now has a bookstore since Bill
Rankin, an Amherst man, has started one at
174 Washington Street. And then we hear
that Old Hector MacQuarrie, the Laird of
Ulva, has started a bookshop at 27 University
Place. That interests us greatly, because Hec-
tor, himself a Caledonian of magnificent lin-
eage and astoundingly agreeable disposition,
says he proposes to conduct his bookshop on
the Scots plan. He promises to wear kilts
every Friday; to keep a tame haggis on the
premises ; and to speak the Gaelic for any cus-
tomer who makes a cash purchase of over $5.
We have heard of bookselling being a cult;
now it is also a kilt.

An Uncotrected
The presidency of the plot tellers' club
goes without contest to Mrs. Sparrow. "Do
you really think the countess killed him?" she
remarks, as her husband reaches the pithy part
of the mystery story. "Oh, dear, I am dying
to. tell you. It doesn't come out at all as
you expect it to. You've guessed, of course,
that the ivory box hasn't got anything to do
with the murder. Have they caught the one-
eyed man jet? There. I shouldn't have told
you, but he did it — revenge, don't you see? But
mercy, I mustn't give the plot away!"
When Mr. Stillwater begins a book he
never knows when he is going to finish it, if
ever. There are so many uses to which his
family can put a stray book — to hold the door
back, to press flowers in, to set the baby on at
dinner — that he really ought not to expect to
find it where he left it. We show the nightly
search under way, just as Mrs. Stillwater re-
members that the book is serving in place of a
caster under the 'baby's crib and that therefore
it can't possibly be touched until morning.

Why Read History?
AC. McLAUGHLIN, of the University of
Chicago, in a review of "The Chronicles
of America" issued by the Yale University
Press, made this plea for the reading of his-
tory in the New York Post Literary Review:
"To say that if the people of a nation are
to manage its affairs and determine its poli-
cies they should know something of its his-
tory is simply to say that they must know
its character. For how is character disclosed
except by conduct? The saying is so trite
it is almost valueless and has long gone un-
heeded. It is high time that some attention
be paid to it. Those, moreover, who are fran-
tically fearful of new nostrums and of vio-
lent convulsions in the body politic may be
urged to read history. It is quieting to the
nerves ; it soothes without depressing, but it
also clears the vision. It is good for the radical
and the revolutionist, too, because he gets some
idea of how steadily society has mdved on
from stage to stage and how the past has in-
sisted on reproducing itself often in a new
disguise. The violent reformer will be less
ready to husband and fondle his pet cure-alls ;
lie will find, if he thoughtfully reads, that the
one thing we can't be rid of is the past;
it not only dogs our footsteps, but we meet
it face to face at the next turn of the road ;
and it simply will not 'be fashioned over irr
accord with the dictates of a formula. His-
tory reading is a wholesome diet for the con-
servative, for he will discover that, while the
past cannot be destroyed, it cannot be pre-
served unaltered. The historical minded mart
is sure of one thing : the social order is going
to change : for better or for worse change is
coming; life is a series of accommodations
and readjustments. The reader of history
finds that while a generation of men are anx-
iously attentive to what appears to be the
conspicuous tendency of their day there is and
lias been an unseen current carrying them
towards a condition they have not dreamed of.
He will probably find that no generation quite
knows itself, because its deeper significance
can be comprehended only when one sees its
product, and the product is only fully dis-
closed bv the next generation or succeeding
stage. The impatient radical and the choleric
conservative may, if they will, from history
learn modesty, and may each gather respect
for the opinion of the other. One of the try-
ing and disturbing manifestations of modern
American' life is the mental immobility of
the conservative, for conservatism so easily
becomes obstinacy, and obstinacy begets intol-
erance, and intolerance makes fellowship and
understanding impossible, and misunderstand-
ing foments quarrels. Whether we like it or
not, changes are going to come. Let the im-
mobile minded man read history; he is likely
to find, if it be real history, that he will be
inclined not simply to watch the wake of the
vessel, but to peer ahead to see whither the
next turn of the wheel mav take him."

A Monthly Department of News and Theory — Edited by Virginia Smith Cowpcr
Gl-A»K«jK Madden Martin (Mrs. Attwood
K. Martin), whose new novel, "March
( )n" was recently published by Appleton,
is now associate editor of The Woman Citizen,
in which slu- is associated with Mrs. Gary
Thomas, Mary Garrett Hay and Dorothy Can-
ficl.l Fisher.
of the new and interesting book depart-
ments which has been started within the last
two months is that of James A. Hearn, West
141!) Street, New York. This department is
located on the fourth floor, and is combined with
the Gift Shop.
The books are arranged in racks at the sides
oi the room, with tables directly in front of
them, while the centre of the floor is given over
.Hoiis types of merchandise suitable for
presents. All classes of literature are included
in the stock, a large portion of which is given
over to religious books and articles. Children's
books are given a prominent place, and they
a wide variety of titles. This new depart-
ment is in charge of Miss Grady, whose name
is a new one to the 'book-trade, but who is, from
the appearance of the denartment, going to
accomplish things worth while.
Marion Cutter, the proprietor of the Chil-
dren's Book Shop, 5 West 47th Street, is a
contributor to the Sunday book page of the New
York Tribune, writing on the subject of new
books for children. Her column is given one
of the most prominent places, and includes both
chatty criticism and suggestions to parents for
book selection. Miss Cutter has recently been
elected First Vice-President of the Women's
N'ational Book Association.
The regular monthly meeting of the Women's
National Book Association will be held at the
Children's Book Shop on the evening of Janu-
ary 10. h is requested by the new president,
Belle M. Walker, that as many members as
]K>ssiblc attend, as there will be many things
of interest discussed, among which is the pro-
posed reduction of yearly dues from $6 to $3.
the business mentioned, there will be
present two authors, who will address the mem-
bers.

A new venture in the world of books has
been launched at 2255 Broadway, New York,
in the form of a Catholic circulating library,
which includes books for the old as well as
the young. The books have been very carefully
selected, and include works bv Catholic and
non-Catholic writers. Beatrice Ridder is in
charge, and her catalog will include the best
of recent books, together with titles in his-
tory, biography, science, travel, etc., by writers
of yesterday and to-day. The works of Joyce
Kilmer, Canon Sheehan, Maurice Francis
Kagan, John Ayscough for adults have been
chosen, together with stories of Zane Grey,
Eleanor Porter, Louisa M. Alcott and Thorn-
ton Burgess for the younger set.
Miss Rlidder has tried to keep in mind, wh'ile
making selections, the advice of a celebrated
man to his son : "Keep good company or none."
There is also a plan on foot to foster the book-
owning habit, and books may be bought from
the library as well as borrowed. If one does
not wish to buy a new book, those which have
seen a reasonable amount of service, may be
purchased for a small sum.
The book store of Gimbel Brothers, New
York, jn charge of Alice Dempsey, enjoyed an
old-time Christmas "rush" in all sections of
the department. This was especially true of
the Juvenile section, which this Christmas
reaped a harvest from Children's Book Week.
Miss Dempsey had two authors in her depart-
ment on alternate days of that week, who held
story-telling periods. They were David Cory,
whose "Puss in Boots, jr." stories are popular
among children and Howard Garis, who told
all about Uncle Wlggeley.
The Little Bookstore in East Sixtieth Street,
New York, has an attractive correspondence
card that gives a personal touch to all the no-
tices that go put. This card is 4% x $l/2 and
has a decorative border with the name and ad-
dress of the shop in a scroll across the top.
There is a good sized writing space, and it can
be mailed at the one cent postage rate. This
forms a very effective way of notifying people
about lxx>ks that have come to hand which
should be of spedial interest to them.
Sara Teasdale is at work on an anthology
of poems for children, to.be called "Rainbow
Gold." The book will be illustrated by Dugald
Stewart Walker and will be brought out next
year by the Macmillan Company. Miss Teas-
dale will include about seventy poems from
Chaucer to Robert Frost.

Obituary Notes
LEMUEL W. BANGS
LEMUEL VV. BANGS for many years resident
representative of Charles Scribner's Sons in
England, died at his home in London on Decem-
ber 1 5th. Mr. Bangs, who was born in New
York in 1840, was related to the well-known
family of auctioneers of literary property. His
uncle, Lemuel Bangs was the original Bangs
of the house of Bangs, Merwiin & Company. In
early manhood he entered the employ of the
Scribner house and in the course of time be-
came manager of the foreign department which
in those days was conducted as a separate busi-
ness under the name of Scribner & Welford.
When Mr. Welford, the resident London agent,
died in 1885, Mr. Bangs became his successor
and was permanently stationed there ever since.
His knowledge of books and of publishing con-
ditions was remarkable, and in addition to the
regular importing business of the firm many im-
portant finds and purchases of literary rare-
ties have distinguished his work. In his long
London residence he made a host of friends
and was a well-known figure in publishing
circles. He was one of the comparatively few
American members of the Garrick Club.
Scrantom, Wetmore & Company
Becomes * 'Scrantom' s Inc."
THE business of Scrantom, Wetmore &
Company, Rochester, N. Y., has just been
reorganized and hereafter will take the name
of "Scrantom's, Incorporated."
Albert C. Walker and Joshua T. Gorsline
recently purchased the interest of Lansing G.
Wetmore in the partnership and incorporated
the business, associating with them as stock-
holders Edward H. Walker, manager of the
social stationery and engraving shops ; Harry
A. Tompkins, manager of the commercial
stores, and Frank A. Davis, assistant man-
ager; Howard L. Peak, manager of the whole-
sale department; D. Karl Medcalf, manager
of the book store. Louis G. LaBorie, manager
of the sporting goods and toy shop, and Ernest
E. Gorsline general manager.
The Board of Directors of the corporation
will consist of Albert C. Walker, president:
Joshua T. Gorsline, treasurer: Edward H.
Walker, Harry A. Tompkins and Ernest E.
Gorsline.
The business was organized in May, 1868.
by Elbert Henry Scrantom, who with Lansing
G. Wetmore opened a book and stationery
store at No. 10 State Street, under the name
of Scrantom & Wetmore. A year later Albert
C. Walker was called from New York to
take charge of the book business as a third
partner and some years later the firm became
Scramtom, Wetmore & Company. The per-
sonnel of the firm remained unchanged until
the death of the senior partner, Mr. Scrantom.
in 1905, when Joshua T. Gorsline, who had
joined the company in 1883 as financial man,
entered the partnership.
Reduction in Postage Rates
THE Postmaster General announces that on
and after January i, 1922, the domestic post-
age rate of two cents an ounce or fraction
thereof will apply to letters for Argentine,
Brazil, Costa Rica, Ecuador. Jamaica and
Martinque. Heretofore the regular rate of five
cents applied to these countries.
Communications
Better Pay, Better Work
Albany, 27 December, 1921.
Editor, PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY :
Printers and 'binders, especially in New York
City, are being paid more than ever before. Is
there no way to insure better work than ever
before?
A recent small shipment of books to this
library shows —
"Letters From A Cat," put into the cover
upside down.
Van Doren's "The American Novel," con-
taining signature printed only on one side.
Rolt Wheeler's "Boy With the U. S. In-
ventors," with fourteen pages printed only on
one side.
Is there no way in which such imperfections,
and there are more of them than ever before,
can get back, in the way of penalty, to the re-
sponsible workmen?
Very truly yours,
J. I. WYER.

THE United States Government has re-
served a plot of ground at Fort Henry
on which it has decided to erect a monu-
ment to Francis Scott Key, author of the
Star Spangled Banner.
Members of the thirty-sixth annual conven-
tion of the American Historical Association
held at St. Louis last month continued the
advocacy of an archives building at Washing-
ton for the safer keeping of public documents.
Alfred Goldsmith, the Lexington Avenue
bookseller, has printed a little brochure entitled,
"A Note on the Portraits of Walt Whitman,"
written by Sadakichi Hartmann, who is of
the opinion that the painted portraits of the
Grey Poet were not especially successful. The
best portraits we have are undoubtedly due
t<> the art of photography.
The centenary of William Collins, the Eng-
lish poet and author of "The Ode to the Pas-
sions," 'born in the last week in 1721, altho
a minor poet, did not pass unnoticed in Eng-
land. The growing custom of celebrating the
centenaries of those who have rendered con-
spicuous service to literature, art and science
by exhibitions in public libraries, addresses
in educational institutions and tributes to their
memory in the press and periodicals is a beau-
tiful one. In recent years it has been growing
in this country much to our credit.
Early in the New Year Knight, Frank &
Rutley of London will sell the remainder of
the autographs collected by Henry G. Bohn,
the famous Victorian publisher. The first por-
tion was sold some weeks ago in London when
the Burns manuscripts brought high prices.
The coming sale will be of special interest to
Shelley collectors, coming in the year of the
centenary of the poet's death and' containing
some extraordinary documents, letters and
manuscripts, among them his will written at
Geneva, July 24. 1816, accompanied bv a letter
providing for Harriet Westbrook. the poet's
first wife, whose death occured a few months
later.
The American Art Association will have
several important print sales this month. On
January 12 a collection of etchings and engrav-
ings by Whistler, Haden. Haig, Cousins. Ward,
Hucr and other masters will be sold On
riUi*Mr I3 rare Wh»stleriana from the estate
of WilHam Hememann. the London publisher
will ho sold. This collection includes etchings
lithographs, 230 unpublished Whistler letters',
books and brochures relating to Whistler and
several hundred letters by notables of th~
nineteenth century from the estate of Thomas
Hepp of Cornwall, England, the collection
of Miss Susan Minns of Boston, and Svdncy
Bawling, a partner in the firm of William
Mememann.
The first book sale of the New Year at
the Anderson Galleries will 'be held January 17,
when the library of the late Albert J. Morgan,
of Larchmont, N. Y., will be dispersed. The
distinctive feature of the library is the many
fine sets of American, English and French
authors, among them sucjh choice editions
as the American Statesmen Series, 40 vols.,
Boston, 1808-1916; a collected set of the
first editions of the "Historical Writings," of
Martha W. Freer, 19 vols., 1854-66; Haw-
thorne's "Writings," 23 vols., Boston, 1900-02,
autograph edition ; Irving's "Complete Works,"
40 vols., New York, 1895, author's autograph
edition ; a collected set of the first editions
of the "Historical Writings" of Jesse, 23 vols.,
London. 1840-75 ; Kipling's "Writings." 29
vols., 1897-1920, limited Outward Bound edi-
tion on Japan paper: and a collection of the
"Works" of Horace Walpole 30 vols., London,
1806-59.
A recent issue of The Irish Times of
Dublin printed a letter from a corre-
spondent alleging that a "large number of
faked autographed volumes" at the "substan-
tial valuations of the genuine article" are
"being manufactured for ottr American cous-
ins." The writer did not state whether these
are the books of Irish or English authors or
of "books ^published in Dublin or London.
Most well-informed American collectors have
been growing a bit cautious in paying high
prices for association books from abroad with-
out being properly safe guarded. Some of
the most active American collectors prefer
to buy thru a responsible American dealer
who is an expert on books of this character
and guarantees the genuineness of the books he
sells. If there is an error of the kind de-
scribed it is easier to get satisfaction from
a reliable dealer in New York than a fakir
in a European city.
An obituary notice of the late William F.
Gables, the Pennsylvania collector, written
by Charles F. Hartman and printed in his last
sales catalog, has been the cause of not a
little comment. In the concluding paragraph
in a few words addressed directly to Mr.
Gables' son. Mr. Hartman savs that "there
are a half dozen booksellers whining around
because Gables died and left a few small bills
unpaid and they are worrying as to how loner
it will take the estate to settle. 'Pay the rats
quickly* and may the money be poison to
them." ^ George H. Sargent, of the Boston
Transcript, has referred to the incident as one
of the "asperities rather than the amenities
of book collecting." We do not know what
basis Mr. Hartman had for writing these
words, but they should not be permitted to
create a wrong impression which thev might
quite easily do. William F. Gables was one
of the most constant and fairest of collectors
January 7, 1922
33
He bought widely from rare book dealers and
contracted no bills that will not be paid as
promptly as the settlement of his estate will
allow. The booksellers who knew him the
best and had the largest dealings with him
are not giving the matter any concern. When
they learn^l of his death the first loss gen-
erally mentioned on the street was that of a
true friend — not merely that of a good cus-
tomer— altho no bookseller who had had long
relations with him could overlook the loss
to the rare book-trade which his death brought.
The misunderstanding that Mr. Hartman's
remarks are likely to create may do him more
harm than any one else. The number of
booksellers that had open accounts with Mr.
Gables was very large and they are all quite
likely to resent being called "rats" or being
given "poison." Even tho Mr. Heartman felt
justified in speaking plainly these words under
the circumstances were unfortunate because
they were so likely to give an impression
broader than intended.
The exhibition of first editions, association
books, autograph letters, documents and manu-
scripts comprising English literature from
Chaucer to Conrad, together with important
smaller collections of French illustrated books
of the eighteenth century and rare Americana
held last month by the Rosenbach Company
at 273 Madison Avenue has been generally re-
garded as the finest of its kind ever held in
this country. Most of the important authors
in this long period of three centuries were
represented frequently by their greatest rari-
ties and sometimes by collections of unrivalled
importance. For instance, in the case of
Shakespeare there were the four folios and
thirty-six quarto plays from 1600 to 1676.
Dickens was represented practically by all of
his first editions, over fifty presentation or
association items, among them the incompar-
able copy of "Pickwick Papers" in the orig-
inal parts with presentation inscriptions to
Mary Hogarth on fourteen of the nineteen
wrappers; the Thackeray Jots, if less numer-
ous, were extraordinary, containing all of the
greatest rarities in the choicest condition and
many that were unique: the Shelley items,
too, were remarkable, especially the associa-
tion books, which included the poet's own copy
of the first edition of "Queen Mab" with
numerous corrections and changes in his hand-
writing; "Alastor." 1816, presentation copy to
Edward Williams who was drowned with the
poet; and upwards of a half dozen other pre-
sentation copies to his most intimate friends
including Leigh Hunt. The manuscripts and
autograph letters were not less wonderful in-
cluding such superlative items as the unpub-
lished manuscript of Blake's "Seven Days of.
the Uncreated World;" Poe's first draft of
"Morella": Rossetti's "William and Mary":
Scotfs "The Minstrel Pipe"; unpublished
manuscripts of Robert Louis Stevenson includ-
ing the short story "Heathercat" ; and others
of like importance. The selections from
French illustrated books were frequently
bound in full red morocco of the period in the
manner so prized by French collectors. The
rare Americana contained lots of the greatest
distinction representing a period of two and
a half centuries. For instance the Lincoln
autographic lots included the complete manu-
script of his celebrated "Baltimore Address"
delivered April 18, 1864, and the original mem-
orandum of a plan of campaign against the
Confederates written in September, 1861. The
catalog of the exhibition contained forty-eight
large octavo pages, closely printed, making
a mere title list, containing few notes. It is
impossible to give a fair idea of the large
exhibit in limited space. It was frequently
remarked while the rarities were viewed by
collectors familiar with the best bookshops
of Europe that no other dealer, here or abroad,
could have equalled it and it is quite easy to
believe this to be true. F. M. H.
A Horrible Discovery
["Einstein's theory is to be demonstrated in
film form, tho hcnv it is to be done is not
explained. The picture is being made in Ger-
many by Walter Kornblum, with the assistance
of Professor Otto Buck and Dr. Fanta, of
Prague, and Dr. Laemmel and Professor G. F.
Nicolai, of Zurich." — Evening Standard.]
Great Scott, and do I read the news aright —
Einstein the latest film-producing groove is?
Was it for this I made them my delight.
And forswore even music-halls for movies?
Ts this the cloud, no bigger than a hand?
Is this the flash that shows me where I stand?
I fear this new and most unwelcome dish
Prepared by the abstruse and learned
Teutons ;
Instead of Fairbanks, Nazimova, Gish,
Will films now "feature" names like Kant's
or Newton's?
Must algebra and Euclid take the place
Of Chaplin's antics and of Pickford's grace?
Is this the fate prepared for me, the lamb-
Wiho would not hear his doom resounding
louder :
Were Gish and Pickford just the dose of jam
Designed to introduce this final powder?
Was even Chaplin but the lure that led
To Einstein and these other names of dread?
Back, back and let me rescue from collapse
The stage that never harbored such inten-
tions,
Which gave me highbrow problem plays, per-
haps.
But never stunts involving four dimensions!
Back to the boards that Irving trod with zest —
Too long I've nursed a viper at my breast!
Lucio in the Manchester Guardian.

That "Big Book" on
Your Spring List
Of course It will be advertised heavily in
newspapers and magazines. Are you going to
do anything to link this advertising to the
book-seller's show window?— to bring the
memory of the book-buyer to a focus at a
point where the purchase can be made?
Lithographed window displays accomplish this
important task— effectively and economically.
Send us a set of galleys of the book you are
"getting behind big" and let us submit a
sketch idea of a window display for it. No
obligation unless you like what we show well
enough to tell us to go further.

thod* of work in the field, their technical equipment, the production of negatives and the
world
method* ,
making of finished prints from them. To them are added two chapters on gum-printing methods.

Pictorial Composition in Photography
By ARTHUR HAMMOND, Associate Editor of American Photography
The most important work on pictorial composition produced in recent years and the only
one yet projected which treats all of the well known principles of pictorial composition in such
a manner as to make them of primary utility to the photographer. The camera demands of
its practitioners a somewhat different treatment of pictorial material from that required in the
other graphic arts, and so this book will tell its readers how to see landscapes, figures, por-
traits. and other ordinary subjects of photography in the special way required to make well
designed pictorial photographs. The technique of photographic exposure development and
printing is nowhere lost sight of, and so the book will be far more useful to the photographer
than any other manual on composition or art principles yet published.
2J4 paces, 48 full page pictures. Size (% x &/•,. Bound in red cloth, Price" $3.50.

This, is, in fact, the long-hoped-for novel of the
Middle West. It is an epic work of vision and
insight — big, upstanding, constructive, truthful.
It shows how a wilderness was conquered by
the toil and courage of strong and earnest men
and women.
It tells in the life story of JAKE VANDE-
MAHK how wagon trains crossed the country,
how homes were built, farms worked, towns and
cities constructed, wealth amassed and civilization
established all in the short space of one lifetime.

J. C.
SNAITH
Here is a novelist who has distinguished himself in almost every field of fiction.
Master of romance and of realism, the series, of novels bearing his name show
an amazing versatility. Twenty years ago he was writing historical romances,
including "Fierceheart the Soldier" and "Mistress Dorothy Marvin," which
attained to great vogue in Appleton's Town and Country Library. Since that
period he has produced novels of every type, some historical, some contemporary,
some with a political flavor, some of romantic development of character. In each
has been exhibited the consummate craftsmanship by which Snaith has won for
himself an undisputed place among the foremost contemporary English novelists.
"The Undefeated," "The Sailor," and "Broke oi Covenden" are grippingly human
stories, full of beauty and a powerful pathos, depicting the potentiality for
development which the human soul can display. In these novels life is a fight
against smothering reality, with the human element (Henry Harper of "The
Sailor," or the valiant little green grocer of "The Undefeated") providing the
thrill of romance. Despite the grim realism of some of their pages, the Snaith
novels, brightened with humor, may truly be described as "a straight road in
hopeful company." Again, Snaith surprises his admirers by such a light gem as
"The Adventurous Lady," which is high comedy of sparkling brilliancy. Of the
author himself little is known by the public. He is a retiring man, appearing but
seldom at his club, the famous Garrick, a keen cricketer, living
in London or nearby, content to watch the life of war or peace-
time England and recording his impressions of its humors and
its romances in novels, shrewd, witty, and filled with true vision.
THE COUNCIL OF SEVEN is J. C. Snaith's new novel. In it he
has turned his fine abilities to the weaving of a mystery which thrill-
ingly tells the story of a young politician who, with a brave woman
at his side, becomes enmeshed in a conspiracy whose aims are lofty,
but whose methods are sinister, evil, poisonous. It is a remarkable
novel ; absorbing to any lover of mystery, romance, and vivid
characterization. $2.00 net.

FALL NOVELS that are still in
wick- di-mand. People are read-

selling. Circulations to date on these
iii.vi-ls run at encouraging variations
between the i8th thousand* (for
the lowest) and the 225th thou-
sand* (for the highest individual
sales).
An index of the universal favor
that has been bestowed upon The
Girls, Vcra, Niels Lyhnc, Alice
Adams, Her Father's Daughter and
The Beloved Woman has appeared
in the continued discussion in maga-
zines and newspapers. Representa-
tive comments :
"Miss Ferber takes you so closely into the
lives of her characters," said Percy Ham-
mond, "that you are almost abashed." It is
indeed an intimate study of life.
"It is fortunate the majority of wives are
not sufficiently intelligent to comprehend the
frightful veracity of this novel (VERA) or
one would be inclined to demand legislation
forbidding the writing of novels by women."
— William McFee.
Conforming with present-day popular novels,
though written forty years ago, Niels Lyhne
prompted George Kent to say: "No one has
remembered the spiritual experiences of early
manhood as well as the Danish novelist."
Mr. Tarkington, also interpreting youth,
was complimented by Henry Seidel Canby
when he said of Alice Adams: "She is the
lost youth of that wonderful mother in 'The
Way of All Flesh' — Samuel Butler's master-
piece of characterization."
Mary Squire, when she had read of Mrs.
Porter's Linda Strong, said: "Action! She's
at it every minute! Intimate nature knowl-
edge so humanized that it is useful to the
youngest."
"In 'The Beloved Woman,' " said George
1C. Stark, "there are some finely etched por-
traits in the course of an absorbing love
story."
New requests for the six notable
novels mentioned will doubtless con-
tinue for some time.

The Price Situation
F J7"£, of course, have no control
ww over retail prices which are
established in every instance by the
publisher concerned. This advertise-
ment is inserted for the purpose^ of
trade information and as a contribu-
tion to stabilized conditions.
SEVERAL inquiries recently received
lead us to believe that there is more
or less uncertainty in the trade as to the
probable trend of prices in the near future.
We have given the matter some considera-
tion and have come to the conclusion that
the changes in the prices of reprints, record
books and of certain popular priced competi-
tive lines already announced are the only ma-
terial reductions that are likely to be made
during the spring season.
An examination of the announcements of
the leading publishers shows that fiction
will be issued to retail at from $1.75 to
$2.50 as in the fall just passed. The level
of prices established last year will be
maintained on all lines of trade books. It
is hardly likely that in the face of this fact
there will be any general reduction in
catalogue prices.
It is well known that books were not ad-
vanced in price in the same proportion as
manufacturing costs or other lines of mer-
chandise during the rising market. Present
prices could not have been maintained, if
paper, binding cloth, etc., had remained at
the peak price. The present level of book
prices is based upon the present scale of
costs, and is now, we feel confident, fortun-
ately stabilized for some time to come.
The forces of competition which pre-
vented the raise in price level to the point
that the law of supply and demand seemed
to justify, are still as potent as ever in
the book publishing business, and it is our
firm conviction that prices will be reduced
just as soon as, if not a trifle sooner than,
a lowering in costs warrant. Our expecta-
tion is that the first reduction in book manu-
facturing costs will be reflected in a ten-
dency to lower retail prices of new popular
fiction titles as they come out.
Publishers will be quite likely to see the
desirability of a reduced price when the
time appointed for it arrives. It behooves
the bookseller, therefore, to cooperate with
the publishers in this matter by placing the
situation, as it exists, 'before his customers,
and to bear in mind that the publishers
are, of course, considering the dealer's
own problem of the reduction in inventory
value and margin of profit that would neces-
sarily accompany lowered selling prices.
Dealers who have not recently placed orders or reorders for
stock needs with us will be agreeably surprised, we feel sure, at the
character of the service we are now rendering. We should be glad
to have trial orders from these with a view to demonstrating the
advantages of conducting their business with minimum well assorted
stocks, making frequent purchases, insuring rapid turnover and based
upon a prompt and efficient jobbing service, provided at a reasonable
price. Practically all orders going by mail or express are shipped
complete on the day of receipt.

Book Price Levels for 1922
AS the year opens and announcements are
made on new books and travelers go out
with new books and new lines of books
in the competitive field, the question of price
levels for the year can be somewhat gauged from
the early indications. As has already been fore-
told during the fall, the prices on popular copy-
rights have been lowered and are now fixed at
75c. The competitive lines of juveniles, birthday
books, graduation books, etc. have shown the
same downward tendency.
The competitive lines are usually considered
separately in the minds of publishers because in
many aspects the business differs very markedly
from that of the new book publishing. The
cost of composition and of engraved plates is
a smaller percentage in competitive lines with
their large printings and in reprints does not
come into the problem except in jackets and pro-
motion. The cost of paper and binding, on the
contrary, is a far larger percentage of the total
cost. While paper and binding have not nearly
returned to the levels of five years back, there
have been very helpful recessions that have
made the new price level possible. Ordinary
book paper that was once 4c. a pound and went
as high as I3C. is now down to about 7c. Some
of the plain binding cloths that used to sell
as low as I2j4c. a square yard, and have been
last year up to 32c. are now down to 22c.
Binding wages, since the establishment of the
open shop last spring, have also receded, altho
they are still 50% to 75% above the old levels.
Pressmen who were getting $25 a week in 1914
and who reached a $51 level a year ago are
now at a $44 minimum.
The materials and wage levels, therefore, are
now about 75% to 100% more than 1914, but
even this is a considerable recession and has
been reflected to full extent in the competitive
prices now going out. It seems very probable
from the data newly collected and from re-
ports from the paper trade and book cloth
fields that these levels of cost are fairly well
stabilized for the year.
In the field of new books the announcements
for the spring are coming out and show that
the price levels are about the same as in the
fall, a very large percentage of fiction at $2,
with some at $1.90 and $1.75. On miscellaneous
books it is hard to draw parallels, but the prices
on books announced seem about the same as
last fall. A detailed study of the many ele-
ments in the cost of production that have en-
tered the problems in the last five years shows
that when the $2 level was reached a year ago
this did not nearly represent the increased cost
of manufacture, and until there came about, re-
cessions in paper and binding cloth last spring
the publishing of current books was decidedly
a hazardous venture. Hope for reduction in
other fields than paper and binding has not
materialized. The decision in the photo-en-
graving field in New York this week leaves
wage scales at their high war level of $50 mini-
mum, about double that of five years ago. The
electrotype wages are more than double, having
gone from $24.75 to $59. Composing room
wages, after fall arbitration, were left at their
war level of $50 minimum, a change from
$24.60 in 1914. All of these are of first im-
portance in the production of new books.
Publishers also still find on their lists hun-
dreds of titles that they are unable to reprint
because the cost of issuing small editions would
make retail prices too high for ready sale.
Some publishers who had carried staple titles
as assets, titles that brought in sales year after
year, have been obliged to mark these off as as-
sets,' as they cannot possibly be profitably
printed.
The cost of advertising, traveling and -gen-
eral overhead seems to have receded practi-
cally none in the year, altho the elimination of
the government tax on railroad fares has been
one rather slight benefit in the last couple
of weeks.
As most of these elements mentioned seem to
be little likely to change in the next twelve
months, it seems a fairly common prophecy in
the trade that prices in the new book field are
rather stabilized for another year. Publishers
are tending to give intensive attention to the
best obtainable titles in order to get the greatest
result from every book on which they have
underwritten the high cost of manufacture.
The Publishers' Weekly
Bright Spot in the New Year
ONE column of the paper that makes
pleasant reading as the new year comes in
is that part of the report on exchange
rates whdch shows that our business r«lations
with Canada are to be on much easier footing
this year than last. In twelve months the
Canadian exchange has risen from approxi-
mately 85 to 95. With this steady betterment
the business interchange between the two coun-
tries has become much easier. To no one will
this be more welcome than to the book-trade.
The Book Review
BEGINNING with the new vear, the Book
Review, published at the office of the PUB-
LISHERS' WEEKLY, is taking on new and attrac-
tive features to make it more valuable to those
dealers who distribute it to their lists of book
buyers. A regular feature will be a page on
books and reading by Heywood Broun, and
there will be more special articles and more
careful make-up than ever before, making it
the most dignified, effective and handsome im-
print magazine that has ever been available.
During the past few years, the experiment
has been made of attaching copies of the Book
Review to the third PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY of
each month, In order to keep it in the minds of
booksellers who might wish to contract for its
use. This form of promotion will now be dis-
continued as not being the most effective way
to circularize. There has been a very marked
increase in the appreciation of the function of
imprint magazines in the past year, and the
circulation of Books of the Month and the
Book Review has shown results.
Now that the extreme pressure on manu-
facturing conditions has lessened, it has been
possible to get better and better results with
typography and illustrations, and in no field is
attractive circularizing in this form more
valuable than in the book world. Rebecca D.
Moore has for the past several years been
special editor of the Book Review and Dorothy
Knight of the Books of the Month.
Christmas Sales Total
THE Federal Reserve Bank of New York
publishes statistics on sales in department
stores in New York City and vicinity from
December ist to December 2Oth, which gives
an increase of 3 per cent in dollar values over
a corresponding period of last year and 2 per
cent larger than December, 1919. This means
that there has been a greater volume of mer-
chandise sold than in any two previous years
in this district. The figures for November
show a slight decrease in money value of sales
in 1921 as compared to 1920 in the department
stores, and in mail order houses, which have
been adversely affected by conditions in the
agricultural districts, a falling off of about
one-third.
Photo Engraving Wages
SINCE the photo-engraving shops closed
down on January 3rd, the employers and
employees have been in conference, and
the employers, according to an announcement
made after a meeting on the evening of
January loth, have given dn on the wage scale
and consented to continue at the present basis of
$50 minimum for 44-hour week. The reports
say that there has been some change in shop
conditions, but particulars have not been an-
nounced.
There are about 1500 union engravers belong-
ing to Photo-Engravers' Union Number One,
and, altho the newspaper shops are under separ-
ate contract from those in general job work, a
good many of these men had walked out in sym-
pathy with the others. Matthew Woll, Presi-
dent of the International Photo-Engravers'
Union, came on from Chicago and took a lead-
ing part in the settlement.
Paper Mill Wages
ON January 4, the arbitrator in the paper
mill field, Judge Frank Irvine of Ithaca,
rendered a decision which has lowered the wage
scale in the unskilled departments of paper-
making while leaving the skilled -wages at the
level which followed the cuts of last August.
The paper mills affected are the principal in-
dependent companies of the United States and
Canada, not including the International Paper
Company.
The mills had reduced wages last August on
percentages varying from 10 per cent to 26
per cent. The wages of skilled workers were
left at a level of from 54c per hour upward.
The unskilled labor, on which the manufacturers
asked a reduction to 3Oc an hour from 4oc has
been placed at 32c an hour, or $2.56 a day.
This includes wood handlers, yard men, etc.
The agreement continues to May i, when the
arbitration agreement, under which thi« scale
was promulgated, expires. The manufacturers
have claimed that the mills were only about
75 per cent busy.
A Book Collector
IT is always interesting to note that the writer
of an obituary of a prominent man very
naturally includes in his report some reference,
if possible, to the attitude of the deceased
towards books. In the current reports follow-
ing the death of Senator Penrose the papers
state that:
"He had few diversions. He had not at-
tended the theater in more than thirty years.
He found no enjoyment in music and was never
inside a moving picture show. He spent his
nights reading and keeping pace with public
matters. At his offices in Philadelphia was a
good law library. At his home was one of
the most valuable collections of books in the
city. Attaches of the Librarv of Congress
say no other man at the Capitol drew from its
shelves a larger number of volumes."
January 14. 1922
The Complexities of the Printing Situation
THE printing situation has been compli-
cated in recent years by the organization
of smaller unions in correlative branches
of the printing trade, and has led to serious
wastage in labor which has greatly increased
the cost of printing, and therefore of publica-
tions and this illustrates only too well the
general complexities of the labor situation.
The following Unions are now inter-related
in the printing offices of New York City:
Typographical Union No. 6
Printing Pressmen and Assistants' Union
No. 51
Franklin Union No. 23
Platen Pressmen and Platen Press Assist-
ants' Union No. I
Web Pressmen's Union No. 25
Paper Handlers' Union No. i
Paper Cutters' Union No. 119
Bindery Women's Union No. 43
This list does not include the Fly Boys and
Girls Union No. i, organized some time since,
which is understood to have lapsed into "in-
nocuous desuetude."
The following are Unions with which print-
ing offices have close relation and which are
more or less inter-dependent with them :
Photo Engravers' Union No. i
Electrotypers' Union No. 100
Stereotypers' Union No. I
Bookbinders' Union No. I
Mailers' Union No. 6
Bookcover Stampers' and Gold Lavers'
Lnion No. 22.
Bookedge Gilders' Union No. 11
Paper Rulers' Union No. 9
Blank Book Workers' Union No. 6
Ink Workers' Union No. 2
The membership of these Unions are jealous
each of the other, and the intricacy of these
criss-cross jurisdictions is best illustrated in
the following official notice issued by the Paper
Handlers' Union No. i under date of Novem-
ber 28, 1919:
"The jurisdiction over the work of paper handling
sheet straightening and such other work as formerly
came under the jurisdiction of the old Paper Hand-
ers, and Sheet Straighteners' Union has been
?,,y re8ulated and assigned as follows:
All paper handling, whether in rolls or flat sheets
uch as carting storing and stripping of rolls and the
ting, unpacking of cases and stacking of white
neets come under the jurisdiction of Paper Hand-
lers' Union \ o. i, I. P. P. & A. U.
The work of straightening printed sheets whether
performed in the Bindery or the Press Room comes
inder the jurisdiction of Paper Cutters' Union No.
'?'t jThls aPP"« to the straightening of sheets
:ed on one side and all printed sheets that are
received in cases as well as to the straightening of
ill printed sheets. The work of carting the printed
sheets and signatures from the Press Room to the
Kindery which has heretofore been done by members
the Sheet Straighteners' Union should also come
under the jurisdiction of Paper Cutters' Union Xo.
119.
The -work of loading up the cross feed folding
machines comes under the jurisdiction of Bookbinders'
Union No. i.
This will cover the matter of the jurisdiction of .
work formerly done by the members of the old Sheet
Straighteners' and Paper Handlers' Union so that all
positions formerly filled by union men will continue
to be union jobs."
Thus the handy man, who in old days helped
to feed or handle paper or did other odd jobs,
is no longer permissable in union offices and
two men may stand around idly while a third
is doing work which either of the others might
do as well. Such conditions are unnecessary
for the protection of the worker and seriously
interfere with the maintenance and develop-
ment of the printing industry.
In New York employing printers have gone
so far as to divide their organization into two
sections, those of the closed shop, including a
large majority of printing offices, and the open
shop, which includes a few fairly successful
tho minor establishments. The present trend
in industry is to follow the precedent of the
bindery trade in emphasizing the open shop. It
should not be impossible to obtain such re-
organization among the Unions in relation with
the open shop system, the only truly American
system, without destruction or debasement of
the Unions. The Unions would still be the
dominant but not the dictatorial feature of
the normal printing office, and the Union card
should remain the best endorsement of a work-
er for employment.
It is doubly unfortunate that the leadership
of the Unions in recent years has become so
autocratic and unreasonable and unmindful
of actual economic conditions. Strikes such as
those in New York harbour and those of the
coal miners have become wars of starvation,
the modern equivalent of "your money or your
life." The milk strike and the threatened
butchers' strike 'both struck at the food supply
of New York in this same spirit of starving
out the public, and a last straw was added to
the New York situation, with an unintentional
touch of humor, when a vaudeville menagerie
of howling beasts was left out on a Broad-
way sidewalk after midnight because Union
theater helpers refused to load the crates on
waiting trucks which were not manned by men
of some other Union organization.
The building trades have been notoriously
under the domination of leaders whose proved
corruption has landed them in State's Prison.
The Publishers' Weekly
while profiteering manufacturers in these in-
dustries have made use of such leaders in a
joint conspiracy against the public, with the
natural result that housing conditions have pro-
duced increased rents and great economic
pressure upon the workers themselves.
. There has been a growing tendency on the
part of labor leaders to insist upon class legis-
lation and to forget that the wage earner is
dependent after all upon the farmer and others
who provide the raw materials which the earth
affords, and that he is only part of the com-
munity and not the whole thing. A final note
of warning is sounded by Bryce in his "Mod-
ern Democracies" in describing the political
conditions in Australia, where the Labor Party
not only has a majority in Parliament, but
pledges members in advance of their election
to accept the policy of the party which is
dictated by a Labor Council, nowadays called
a Soviet, of a few men who thus control
legislation and practically stop fruitful
Parliamentary debate and throttle representa-
tive government. There also the law provides
preference for the Unions and to that extent
deprives other citizens of the opportunity to
earn a living.
The Railroad Labor Board in its recent
decision, unanimously agreed upon with the
support of labor representatives, pointed the
way to the open door of friendly relations be-
tween employers and employed, between the
public and the Unions. In this important field
of transportation, where high wages and high
costs had seriously crippled all business from
the farmer to the ultimate consumer, this
decision recognized the Unions as the best
means for "collective bargaining," with the
proviso that non-union workers should not be
unrepresented, and required peaceful relations
between union and non-union workers. Also,
while modifying working conditions where these
had been made the pretext for despotic control,
the Railroad Labor Board insisted on the rights
of the workers to reasonable hours, proper
sanitation and the comforts of industrial life.
The common sense of it all is that an Amer-
ican citizen should have the right to earn his
bread and butter, whether or not he chooses
to belong to a labor organization, but that the
Unions rightly led constitute the best means
to lead all workers and the whole community
toward peace and prosperity. Standing stoutly
by the principle that the wage worker is en-
titled to a day's wage which gives him an
increasing rather than decreasing share of his
product the wage in any industry should afford
to each worker a comfortable standard of
living and this should bring about a relation
between employer and employed in which the
wastage of strikes and like difficulties should
be avoided, in which efficiency should be em-
phasized and thru which the prices of com-
modities should be kept as low as fair wages
permit, thus increasing demand and lowering
the cost of increasiing supply, so that each man,
woman and child in the country will be the
gainer and no wage earner the loser. It is
only by the application of the golden rule in
industry that this ideal may be reached.
Doing More Business on Less Capital
By Waldon Fawcett
THE government has been inquiring into
"turnover" and its bearing on business
expense. Ordinarily, a board of Agri-
cultural Inquiry would be expected to have
but slight interest in the rapidity of mer-
chandise turnover, but a Joint Commission
of Congress has just come across this factor
in investigating the marketing system of the
country. It will be some months before the
final report and recommendations of the
Commission will be ready, but its findings
will point out that costs and profits are heav-
ily governed by the number of turns of stock
in a year or a season.
< Study of retail turnover by the Commis-
sion has followed the Commission's probe of
the cost of distribution, or of "service," as
Chairman Anderson likes to characterize it,
all the functions of distribution from the
producing plant to the point of consumption
being included in "service." John Wana-
maker's general manager, Franklin N. Brew-
er, in testimony before the Commission, set
"dealer service" above price in the considera-
tion of customers. Thereupon, the econ-
omists did some figuring and announced that
49 cents of every dollar paid by the consumer
goes for "service," leaving 37 cents to cover
the entire cost of production, including all
materials, and 14 cents to provide all the
profits for manufacturers and distributors.
Prodded by the revelation of the heavy
proportion of marketing investment that is
bound up in the distributive machinery, the
January 14, 1922
Congressional explorers have sought, from
the business men that the Commission has
summoned as witnesses, light on the subject
of turnover. To the questions of members
whether turnover can be speeded up without
materially increasing the cost of doing busi-
ness, most of the merchants who have faced
the Commission have replied in the affirm-
ative. It was pointed out, however, that when
a certain point is passed, overhead goes up
with the turnover, not at the same rate, but
nevertheless steadily.
Christmas trade was cited as illustration of
possible illusion with respect to turnover.
Many a retail store takes care of a sharply
increased volume of business at the holiday
season without any material increase in oper-
ating expenses, but this high net gain is pos-
sible only for a limited interval when the
sales plant and its operative force temporarily
sustains an overload. If the store were
called upon to cope regularly with turnover,
swollen to Christmas proportions, it could be
done only if there were proportionate in-
crease of facilities and of personnel.
Concensus of opinion seemed to be that the
average retail organization is susceptible of
turning stock more frequently than it now
does without substantial increase in operating
expenses. One witness, who gave his cost of
doing business as somewhere between 20
and 25 per cent, reported the rate of turn-
over in his store as four times a year and
ventured the opinion that at least one addi-
tional turnover might be added without rais-
ing the cost of doing business. The propen-
sity of the average purchaser to seek pleasant
store environment points to opportunities for
better turnover, and wide aisles offer chance
for an increase of turnover with no advance
in the charges for rent, heat, light, insurance.
Starting from this idea that increase in
turnover spells increase in profit the Com-
mission have studied the relative ability of
the large store and small store to obtain
turnover. Department store executives give
the impression that they are anything but
cock-sure as to their superiority in turnover.
The Wanamaker manager saw an increasing
line of distinction between the smaller busi-
nesses that are locally close to the people and
the larger businesses that offer a range of
merchandise. But he admitted that one of
the big questions of the period is whether a
store with central management can continue
to compete with the smaller store in which
the personality and the effort of the propri-
etor enter most directly and where there is
a personal specialized service which the more
impersonal large store finds it hard to dupli-
cate.
Conceding then, that the small store cannot
be driven out by the large store and that, per-
haps, the efficiently operated small store has
never been so prosperous as at present, the
discussions have sought to square this condi-
tion with the all-important equation of turn-
over. It is acknowledged that the large store
and the large mail-order house obtain what-
ever advantage in price they possess by means
of quantity purchases. And it has been stated
brake upon turnover and the improvement in
transportation and other facilities, which en-
able the small merchant to reorder frequently
in small lots, is an influence that narrows the
gap between the large and small store.
The farther the Commission has pursued the
subject of turnover the deeper the insight into
the structure of retail merchandising. The
co-operative store, the consumer-owned store
and, at the other extreme, the manufacturer-
owned store have all been scrutinized. But
always there was, on the part of quizzed and
quizzers, an eye to the influence of turnover.
William H. Ingersoll, who stated that he had
recently been in Europe investigating this
subject eulogized as "a marked accomplish-
ment," the achievment of Selfridge in doing,
in his London department store, a business,
equal in volume of sales to Harrod's on half
the investment.
In suggesting a way for curing slow turn-
over, business men who have appeared be-
fore the Joint Commission have usually as-
sumed that 28 per cent represents the cost of
operation of a typical retail store. This ex-
pense is divided into two elements. One is
time expenses — that is expenses affected by
the length of time involved in transactions ;
the other labor expense involving buying,
clerk hire, etc. In the calculations at Wash-
ington, the expense of store operation has
seemed to be divided equally, 14 per cent be-
ing computed for time expense and 14 per
cent for labor expense.
As a basis for computing the influence of
turnover the store with one turnover a year is
taken. The specific illustration used in some
of the discussions was a store carrying a
$10,000 stock to do business of $30,000 a year
and that thus moves its stock off its shelves
once in twelve months. For this store the
time expenses embody :
Rent $1800 or 6%
Interest on investment in stock 6%
Light, insurance, etc 2%
Total 14%
Labor expense is apportioned as follows :
Buying and traveling to market l%
Clerks and sales force B%
Advertising 2%
Expressage, delivery and sundries l%
Breakage, loss, and obsolescence 2%
Total 14%
Grand total - 28%
The arguments have pictured the possibil-
ities if all labor expense be left the same, but
there is a speeding up of the turnover or the
time element. If the merchant could do his
$30,000 worth of business on a $5,000 invest-
ment instead of a $20,000 investment, then
against each dollar's worth of stock he has
only to charge i% or one-fourth of his year's
rent. Similarly the interest charge is cut
down and likewise the assessment for heat and
light. Simply by increasing the turnover the
time expense is reduced from 14% to 3^3%.
That saving would, if translated to the ulti-
mate consumer, so the Congressional Com-
mission has been told, exceed all the theo-
retical savings that have been promised by
66
The Publishers' U'eckly
that the largest mail-order house has little
advantage in this respect over the large de-
partment stores and "chain" systems. The
temptation to quantity purchases for the sake
of securing extra discounts is accounted a
advocates of systems that eliminate the
middleman or contemplate co-operative
stores.
The above supposes that the labor item
remains the same, but the board has been
told by witnesses that this is not fair and
that in the case of goods that, by the aid of
advertising or exploitation, sell so readily
that they turn four times a year or oftener
there is an appreciable saving in clerk hire
and other items under the head of labor. ^In
order that members of the Commission
should not discredit as preposterous sup-
posititious cases of multiplication of turnover
there have been laid before the jury of in-
vestigators a number of interesting concrete
instances of stimulus to turnover.
A store with a record of two turns a year
— doing a business of $60,000 a year on a
stock investment of $20,000 — was brought,
under new management to a rate of 10 turn-
overs. It is declared that the rate of 12 turns
which has been shown in several instances
is not unusual where modern methods have
been applied. Most of the witnesses who
have praised at Washington the efficacy of
more rapid turnover as a remedy for mer-
cantile ills have advocated not a mainten-
ance of present stocks with increased sales
but rather a cutting down of stocks without
any reduction in the amount of sales. There
has been mentioned, as a promising remedy,
the plan of the Domestic Distribution Divi-
sion of the U. S. Chamber of Commerce
which prescribes as a prerequisite of max-
imum turnover a system of stock control
based on "stock control cards." — a card index
file which affords a perpetual inventory and
affords at a glance conclusive evidence as to
which items of stock are stagnant and which
are selling out or turning most rapidly.
The Chicago School Book Situation
ACCORDING to the decision announced by
the Chicago Board of Education, Chicago
is to make its own schoolbooks, the text
being written by the teachers and the city pub-
lishing them. This decision followed closely
after the announcement of an adopted list of
books lecommended by the Superintendent of
Schools and his staff.
The production of schoolbooks by a muni-
cipality or state has been tried in this country
a great many times and under varying condi-
tions. If Chicago makes its texts under this
plan, it will be the only community, however,
actually producing its own books. The state of
California originally tried that plan but after-
wards amended its law so that the state could,
instead of preparing its own books, lease plates
from publishers for this purpose, the original
home-made books not being satisfactory to the
educators. It was reported at that time that
several hundred thousand dollars worth of
books were left on the hands of the state. At
first, after the law was changed, most of the
large textbook houses offered texts on a speci-
fied royalty percentage, based on the listed
price. Many of the larger houses, however,
have since withdrawn from this plate supply
business as being unsatisfactory to both their
authors and themselves. The state of Minne-
sota made experiments in a similar direction
and had for a period of fifteen years up to
1893 a plan of uniform state contracts, in which
an arrangement similar to the California leases
was made, largely on the series of Quackenbos
books. They, however, reverted to the general
plan of contract with textbook houses finding
the other unsatisfactory.
The state of Kansas Joes not make its own
textbooks but leases plates, and here, as in
California, many of the important texts are not
offered on that plan. The Province of Ontario
also makes its own books, edits and publishes
them. In many states the subject has been
under legislative discussion, but has been passed
by as unsatisfactory to the educators, who
believe that better texts are obtained under the
competitive method.
The Chicago Board of Education believes
that texts can be produced in time for use in
the next school year. The publishers claim that
frequently they have to spend from two to
three years in preparing and getting plates
made for a successful and carefully thought out
textbook. The difficulty of having textbooks
written by the teachers of any one city is a very
obvious one. The art of writing a textbook
requires a separate talent from that of teach-
ing, and ability to produce a textbook in any
field is usually given to few people. Publishers
who have sought '" vain for many years for
just the right textbook in some particular field
something that would measure up to their
highest ideas for such a book are not ready to
believe that every city school organization, no
matter how able the teachers, has talent of that
unusual capacity.
The publishers in their argument against
leased plates point out that under this plan
there is too small return to the author and no
adequate provision for the publisher to cover
the years of experiment and search for the
best text and the most usable book. Without
proper margin, experimentation and progress
would soon be curtailed. The Chicago School
Board is proceeding under a statute of Illinois,
which gives the Board of Education "the right
to print, publish, distribute and sell its own
textbooks." There has, however, been no
change in the constitution of the state, as was
provided in California in order to make per-
fectlv sure the state's right to enter into private
business.

Progress on Bookselling Promotion
Committees Organized and General Plans Announced
67
FOLLOWING on the series of meetings of
the past six weeks of publishers, sales man-
agers, advertising men and travelers, the
outline of what will be done this year in pro-
moting bookselling is taking definite shape and
the committees to take care of the details an-
nounced. The committee which is in special
charge of developing the program is as follows :
COMMITTEE ON YEAR-ROUND BOOK

BOOKSELLERS
Eugene L. Herr, President American Book-
sellers' Association, ex-officio
John Loos, Brentano's, New York
F. S. Smyth, Wanamaker's, New York
Many suggestions have developed from the
meetings, and the committee at its first gather-
ing took up the problem of the plans, posters
and material for the coming six months. The
larger appropriation, pledged by the publishers,
which is more than double that of last year,
will permit a wider distribution of material,
higher grade posters and far more general pub-
licity. When the first poster goes out, there will
be sent to the 1700 booksellers who have been
cooperators in the movement or to those who
can cooperate this year, a handsome mahogany
frame in which this and succeeding posters can
be effectively displayed. Extra frames can be
obtained at 7oc. each from the office at 334
Fifth Avenue.
The first poster that has been adopted to go
out about January 2Oth has the wording
"Every real home has books" and will be hand-
somely reproduced in full color. It is felt that
this poster will have continuing value the year
round. There has been no effort to settle on
a single slogan for the whole year, but book-
sellers who are interested are urged to send in
suggestions. • This poster slogan has been ab-
breviated from a longer one "No Home a Real
Home Without Books" which is the form in
which publishers will use it in their advertising.
From among the designs of the best posters,
book-marks will be made, according to a sug-
gestion made by some of the booksellers last
year. There is also being prepared a Valen-
tine's Day band, to be used on books — white
with red lettering, as is the customary form,
reading "To My Valentine." Any of the
booksellers who will write for them may have
them. It is also proposed to study the possi-
bility of having other helps to make books
more widely used as gifts, and a type of gift
certificate is being designed, especially applic-
able to books, and a second style similar in
form but having a Christmas decoration will
be developed ifor the fall.
Marion Humble, who has had charge of the
details of the campaigns for the last fifteen
months is in executive charge of all details at
the Fifth Avenue office with two assistants, one
experienced in book promotion, so that ma-
terial can go out as promptly as possible.
Dealers will receive semi-monthly news bulle-
tins with suggestions for display and local
publicity, and correspondence from the trade on
any special problems of retailing is encouraged.
There will be frequent releases to the news-
papers of book news, and suggestions will be
sent to the bookseller on good types of ad
copy.
Besides the book news sent to a list of 150
literary editors, there will be regular releases
to a longer list of managing editors. Copies
of these will be sent to publishers and book-
sellers for information and further use. The
Committee will endeavor, as during last fall,
to keep magazine editors and writers informed
about book news by letters and personal calls,
and encouragement will be given to starting
book columns. The committee has the advan-
tage of the advice and assistance of the newly
organized Publishers' Ad Club, which con-
siders from the advertising man's point of view
all the problems presented. A brief s-ummary
of the emphasis that will be placed in the
posters and publicity during the next six
months is as follows

Plans for Booksellers' Convention
THE Convention of the American Book-
sellers' Association will be held at the New
Willard Hotel, Washington, D. C, May
8th to nth inclusive. While the plans have not
sufficiently matured to give a detailed account
of the proceedings of this Convention, enough
is known about the program to be safe in say-
ing that this will essentially and strictly be a
Booksellers' Convention and that it will deal
with the practical phases of bookselling. It
is the aim of the committees that the book-
sellers shall finance their own convention instead
of asking the publishers for contributions for
entertainment. This can be done by charging
a small registration fee, as was done by the
National Association of Stationers and Manu-
facturers at its convention last October.
CHAIRMEN OF COMMITTEES
The chairman of the General Committee on
Entertainment and Banquet is S. L. Nye of
S. Kann & Son, Washington, D. C. The chair-
man of the Program Committee is J. Joseph
Estabrook of Hochschild, Kohn & Company,
Baltimore, Md.
They will be assisted by Sidney Avery of
Brentano's, Washington, William C. Ballan-
tyne of William Ballantyne & Sons, Washing-
ton, Fred S. Woodward of Woodward &
Lothrop, Washington, and Stanley G. Reming-
ton of Norman Remington Co., Baltimore.
It is believed that the first meeting of the
Convention will be held on Monday afternoon.
If the plans for the entertainment are carried
out, it will be the banner convention in the
history of the Association, as it will include a
reception by President Harding to the Associa-
tion on the afternoon of the nth followed by
the banquet in the evening.
By opening the Convention on the afternoon
of May 8th, it will allow for those who arrive
on Sunday plenty of time, and for those who
arrive on Monday morning an opportunity to
be present at the opening session.
Another American Invasion
WHEN the Berlin dispatches carried re-
cently a story about the burning in the
streets of Berlin of 40,000 dime novels, it
seemed to indicate that the youth of Germany
was being protected from any alien invasion.
One reader of the dispatch has reasoned it out
that the German soldiers having heard so much
about our "Bear Cat" battalions had felt that
German youth needed to be fed on Wild West
literature in order to be able to hold their own.
If this was the reason for their increased con-
sumption of this literature, the concerted move-
ment to stop its use can surely be treated as
a pacifist measure helping on the peace of the
world.
The same dispatch says that the Berlin boys
who parted with these treasures were provided
in their place with "classical works and other
good books." It is to be hoped that if such a
selection were made the Berlin boys did not
cease reading altogether but did really benefit
by the change. This German censorship seems
to have its counterbalance in this country
where there have been several efforts to elim-
inate certain harsh and gruesome features
from Grimm's "Fairy Tales" in order that the
American children may not be coarsened.
With the new international character of liter-
ature being thus demonstrated, the system of
exchange professors can have but relatively
small influence compared to the appalling pos-
sible effect of Wild West heroes going to Ber-
lin and German witches coming to our hearth-
sides.

Religious Book Week Under Way The Fellowship of Booksellers
THE Religious Book Week feature of the
general Year Round Bookselling plan has
now had its work well outlined, and the
Committee in charge is as follows.
F. S. Braselman, Presbyterian Board of
Publication.
Arthur F. Stevens, The Methodist Book
Concern.
H. W. Cressman, American Baptist Publi-
cation Society.
Vernor Schenck, Congregational Publishing
Society.
Arthur Kenedy, P. J. Kenedy and Sons.
S. Edgar Briggs, The Fleming H. Revell
Co.
William Thomson, Thomas Nelson and
Sons.
Charles M. Roe, George H. Doran Co.
Donald P. Bean, University of Chicago
Press.
William McGhee, Kaufman's, Pittsburgh,
Pa.
Charles E. B'loch, The Jewish Book Concern.
This Committee was selected at a general
meeting of the religious publishers held in the
conference room of the National Association
of Book Publishers' office, and the details
for the work were plotted out. The date,
as has already been announced, is April 2nd
to 8th. It is hoped and expected that book-
sellers will find 'this an unusual opportunity
to display religious books. And in the fol-
lowing week, Easter week, the display of de-
votional books and Bibles is always a book-
trade feature.
The large religious organizations have
found this plan of general co-operation of
great value in stimulating new interest and
better methods in book use thruput the coun-
try, and the ministers and religious papers
have seen an opportunity for promoting re-
ligious reading in a way very much in ac-
cord with their own natural inclinations.
The Committee has felt that the big theme
to be emphasized this year was the need of
enrichment of the religious home life thru
religious books, and this thought will be ex-
pressed in posters and general discussion. Al-
ready editors of the religious press have
been making suggestions, and prominent
writers in the churches have promised articles
and messages. As was shown in the way
the church leaders took up the subject of
children's reading last fall, the general
thought of the place of books in relation to
the church has been coming to the front,
which will make the co-operation much
more complete.
"What causes most human troubles? Lack
of knowledge. What is the remedy? Read-
ing good books."
"How only can one get the greatest good
from books? By owning them."
— W. F. Gregory, Manager Lothrop, Lee &
Shepard Company, Boston, in New Era Maga-
zine.
AT the Booksellers' Convention last May,
announcement was made of the election
of the first members to the Honorary
Fellowship of American Booksellers, which
had been instituted by the Association to
provide a method for giving recognition to
those booksellers who had raised their stand-
ards to a commendable level.
The Committee in charge of this Fellow-
ship, as appointed by President Herr of the
Association, is now sending out to all mem-
bers an announcement that nominations will
now be received for the second year and that
five names will again be selected from those
nominated. The Committee in charge con-
sists of Frederic G. Melcher, of the PUB-
LISHERS' WEEKLY as Chairman; Henry S.
Hutchinson, New Bedford, Mass. ; John T.
Hotchkiss, of the J. K. Gill Company, Port-
land, Oregon ; W. P. Blessing, of the Pres-
byterian Board of Publication, Chicago;
Belle M. Walker, of the Bookseller and
Stationer, New York, and Eugene L. Herr,
Lancaster, Pa., ex officio.
Nominations either on the official blank
or otherwise can be sent to the Chairman
any time before March 1st. In connection
with the nomination, there should be sent
in a brief account of the business career and
a few comments on the outstanding char-
acteristics of the nominee's bookselling
knowledge and abilities. Those elected last
year were : Charles E. Butler, New York :
George W. Jacobs, Philadelphia ; William
Harris Arnold, New York; J. K. Gill, Port-
land, Oregon ; and Joseph M. Jennings, Bos-
ton.
The plan of the Fellowship is that nomina-
tions may be made by anyone in the book-
trade and that after March ist these nom-
inations will be put into the form of the
ballot and sent out to the Association mem-
bers for vote. About two hundred ballots
were cast in all last year.
The Fellowship has no separate officers or
organization, but it is believed that by this
method the standards toward which the Ameri-
can retail book-trade hopes to direct its pro-
gress will be indicated by the character and
records of the men who are chosen for this
honor. An inscribed parchment is prese'nted
to each one elected, and the announcements of
election are not made until the annual Con-
vention. Any person nominated one year who
does not happen to fall among the first five in
the election can be renominated for another
ballot. The making of such nominations de-
pends on the initiative of the friends of the
booksellers, and the Committee hopes that
those who know among their bookseller
friends, men or women, who should be con-
sidered for this honor will take pains to see
that the nominations are made. Extra blanks
for the purpose describing the details will be

Books of Cheer and Diversion
A BOOKLIST in a special field and one pre-
pared after a great deal of experience with
one group of readers is "Two Hundred B'ooks
for Every-Day Use in the Hospital" that has
just been published by the Sioux City Public
Library, Iowa. The hospital work of Sioux
City has been a model of what can be done in
the direction of turning books to the best advan-
tage in hospital work, and the description of its
efforts has been widely quoted in medical papers
thruout the country. Because of thp well direct-
ed character of the work at Sioux City, the list
will be of importance to all who are interested
to see that books come to their full value in this
tremendously important field. Copses of the
list can be purchased at 150 each from the
Sioux City Public Library Board of Trustees.

English Book-Trade News
(From Our London Correspondent)
WHILE pre-war standards of Christmas
sales were not reached this year, either
in volume or cheapness of books, the
holiday season of bookselling was extremely
good, in spite of pessimism in certain places.
There is always pessimism in the trade of
books, no matter whether you maKe, issue or
sell them. Why is it? We have looked for
the reason everywhere; we have discussed it
•with the pessimist and the optimist; we have
examined conditions in all departments of the
trade, but we have failed to rind the reason —
and what is infinitely better — we have failed to
find just cause.
Granted that, every now and again the spirits
of the trader, whatever it is he deals in, get
down to a pretty low ebb, if he doesn't watch
out, in that depth they may stay. Pessimism
has no place in business, and the exponent of
it never gets very high in his concern. Shrewd
leaders weed such encumberers out; they are
like rotten apples; they affect others. That
means clogged machinery. It is the balanced
optimist who scores, and he is a valuable
person. Somehow, it is quite a fashionable
thing to grouse about bad business where books
are concerned, but it is, like the devil, never so
bad as it is painted.
The stores here were well filled, and good
buying went on. Fortunately, the weather was
bright, and that meant money, as you know,
for the bookseller. The Christmas book buyer
is not altogether easy to satisfy. He wants a
certain kind of book, but iust what he has in
his mind is not always clear. Now that is the
burden of the assistant which he shoulders
rationally and with good temper. Many books
have to be shown .before satisfaction is given.
When the right — apparently right — book is
decided upon, there is a sigh of relief. On the
whole, while the Englist Christmas book buyer
is exacting, he is a very pleasant individual to
deal with. We have spoken of "he," but more
often than not the buyer is a "she," and perhaps
there is a little more difficulty there.
Among those books which everyone asked for
were not a few, which, besides being "popular"
— nowadays a recommendation — were also read-
able. Of course, the classics old and modern,
have rows and stacks to themselves, while there
may be seen piles of sucH new hooks as Gene
Stratton-Porter's "Her Father's Daughter."
There is a great run on her. rtuge Walpole's
"Young Enchanted" and Brett Young's "Red
Knight" are going strong. "Mrs. Bindle" is
doing a roariner trade, much to Mr. Jenkins's
Helight. but the novel which is probably selling
better than anv is that exquisite romance, "If
Winter Comes," by A'. S. M. Hutchinson. Its
success here is great, but in America we hear
it is enormous.
A great Christmas seller was Wilfrid Evart's
"Way of Revelation." the finest war novel yet
written. It is a first novel, and the publishers
"backed their fancy" by printing many thou-
sands of copies. They must feel very happy
about it. Other books in much demand this
holiday time are Carpenter's "Blocking of Zee-
brugge," Ponting's "Great White South," Mr.
Duster's epoch-making book, Sir William
Robertson's autobiography, "Old Time Stories,"
"The Mirrors of Washington," Ben Hecht's
"Erik Dorn," Drinkwater's "Oliver Cromwell,"
"Recollections and Reflections," Caine's "Men-
doza and the Little Lady," Hull's "Shadow of
the East," Sir Sidney Colvin's "Memories,"
Hall Caine's "Master of Man," Marie Corelli's
"Secret Power," Lord Salisbury's "Life," Lord
Rosebery's "Miscellanies," the book of Lord
Frederick Hamilton, Professor Jack's "The
Legend of Smokeover," Conan Doyle's "Wan-
derings of a Spiritualist," Farnol's "Martin
Conisby's Vengeance," "Collecting Antiques for
Pleasure and Profit," George's "Ursula Trent,"
Norman Davey's "Guinea Girl," Lady Angela
Forbes's "Memories," the new novels by
Lowndes, Maxwell and McKenna, "Kate Green-
away's Pictures," and many, many others too
numerous to mention.
The books with pictures by the late Lovat
Fraser are very successful, while "The Story
of the Mikado" is an exceedingly popular book.
Finally, the publishers tell us that a very large
number of subscriptions are being taken by
booksellers for that enormously fascinating new
twenty-part serial, "Outline of Science,'' by
Professor J. Arthur Thomson. People are
making Christmas present; of subscriptions to
old and young. The success of the whole un-
dertaking has exceeded the utmost expectations
of the promoters, and the first issues have been
printed again and again.
And now for 1922 we hope a brisk drop in
costs and a fine rise in sales.
The Only Real Readers
A BOOK-MARK used during the recent
Canadian Book Week quoted the following
from Stephen Leacock, a selection, headed "The
Only Real Readers":
"As a writer of books it is my opinion that
children, or at least young persons, are the best
readers ; indeed, the only real readers. Grown
up adults are badly damaged. They read in
an inattentive way, with no real effort of men-
tal power to fuse the picture before them into
the white heat of imasrination. They read and
forget. Thev would pass by Weller and never
see him. They would forget Huck Finn's
name over-night. Their judgments are the
standard of education and their admiration lies
dead in the crave of their childhood. For
real literary* success let me tell a fairy story
to the listening ears and wondering face of
my little son of four."

Obituary Notes
WILLIAM H. PARKER
WILLIAM H. PARKER, one of the founders of
the Booksellers' League of New York, died
suddenly at his home in West Haven on Decem-
ber 21. For a number of years he was a
salesman with E. P. Button & Company, leav-
ing them to engage in farming in Maine. 'On
his return to the book business after two years,
he engaged with Brentano's, New York, and
later started for himself in the old and rare
•book business in New Haven. Subsequently he
joined the staff at Whitlock's, where he was
employed at the time of his death. He was
about fifty-five years old, and was known to
many as an unusually well-equipped, all-round
bookman.
PRISCILLA GUTHRIE
WORD has been received from Colorado of the
death of Priscilla Guthrie, founder of the
Priscilla Guthrie Bookshop of Pittsburgh. Miss
Guthrie was one of the first women successfully
to enter into the bookshop field, and developed
her store along individual and attractive lines.
About three years ago, her health made it im-
perative for her to leave for higher climates,
and the business was conducted for her by
W. J. Crull, at first as a temporary arrangement,
but finally by his putting his whole time and
interest into the development of the business.
MAUDLENA JOHNSON BEANE
MAUDLENA JOHNSON BEANE died in San
Diego, California, the latter part of Novem-
ber. She was engaged in educational work for
thirty-five years, the last half of which was
spent in the Philippines. She retired in 1918
and purchased the Occult Bookshelf and rapidly
absorbed several other concerns. She had been
ill for nearly two years. She is survived by
her husband, her father, six brothers and three
sisters. Her husband, Charles Wallace Beane,
will continue the business.
KATRINA TRASK
KATRINA TRASK (;Mrs. George Foster Pea-
body), who died at her home in Saratoga
Springs, N. Y. on January 7, published a num-
ber of volumes of verse, a book of short stories,
and several plays for amateurs. She married
Spencer Trask, the well-known financier of
New York in 1874, who died in 1909, and about
a year ago she married Mr. Peabody. -> former
partner in the firm of Spencer Trask & Com-
pany. Her list of titles include Christolan. a
poem, (1003) ; Free Not Bound, (1903) ; In
My Lady's Garden, (1007) ; John Leighton, Jr.;
King Alfred's Jewel: drama, (1900.) ; Lessons
in Love: short stories, (1900) ; Night & Morn-
ing, (1007); Sonnets & Lyrics; Under King
Constantine, (1893) ; In the Vanguard: drama,
(1913) ; Invisible Balance Sheet, (1916) ;
Mighty and the Lowly, (1915) ; Without the
Walls: a reading play, (1919).
First New York Bookselling Class
THE lecture room connected with the New
York Library School was filled to capac-
ity on January 6th at the first lecture of the
series on bookselling, which is in charge of
Miss Bessie Graham of Philadelphia, under the
auspices of the New York Booksellers' League.
Mr. Eisele, as Chairman of the Committee on
Arrangements, was in charge of starting the
course, and it was found that the capacity of
'the hall had been easily sold out at five dollars
for the course of twelve lectures.
Miss Graham's opening lecture was on bio-
graphies, and, after a general introduction to
the subject, she gave a most interesting account
of the place of the popular books in the bio-
graphical field from Boswell's "Johnson" to
"Edward Bok." Her comment on these books
is of the kind most valuable to booksellers, be-
ing ,iull of incisive comparisons and interesting
anecdotes that give the retailer just the needed
material to help him describe the book to those
interested. The class will follow Miss Graham's
"Bookman's Manual" as a guide for study.
After the hour's lecture, which begins at seven
o'clock, there will always be a talk on some
general trade subject, and at this session the
subject chosen by the Chairman was that of
"Book-Trade Periodicals," which was covered
by Frederic G. Melcher.
Women's Book Association

Day of Faith" which was published by

Women's National Book Association, which is
to be held at the Children's Book Shop on Jan-
uary 19, beginning promptly at 8 p. m. The

Rare Books Autographs and Prints
ETCHINGS of New York by C. F. Mie-
latz are on view at the Brown Robertson
Galleries and will be followed next
month by the etchings of a group of American
artists.
Hodgson & Company of London have re-
cently been instrumental in bringing to light
a hitherto unrecorded copy of the first edition
of Caxton's "Chronicles of England," 1480.
Thomas J. Holmes of Cleveland, who has
been engaged for several years in compiling a
bibliography of the writings of Cotton Mather,
the New England divine, has nearly completed
his task.
Dickens first editions have been bringing
good prices in London. A copy of "Pickwick,"
in parts, brought £610; "A Tale of Two
Cities," in parts, £80; and the "Sketches of
Boz," 3 vols., original cloth, £76.
Historical records of cathedrals and cities of
France made between October, 1918, and
March, 1919, by D. Putnam Brinley are on
view at the Montross Galleries. The drawings
were made on the spot in one sitting and record
conditions now being altered.
A collection of early aquatints is now on
exhibition at the New York Public Library.
Invented in 1768, the acquatint was popular,
especially as a medium for illustration, for
nearly a century. The selections bring out the
beauty of the work done during the height of
its popularity very effectively.
A collection of books of modern authors,
mainly first editions, together with original
manuscripts of the late Edgar Saltus and other
important books and autographs from various
consignments will be sojd at the Anderson Gal-
leries January 18. The collections of Conrad,
Hardy, Masefield, Swinburne and Wilde are
especially noteworthy. There are several manu-
scripts of Walt Whitman of very great interest
that collectors of the Good Grey Poet cannot af-
ford to overlook.
The New York Public Library Bulletin notes
the accession of a file of the scarce Columbian
, Mirror and Alexandrian Gazette, published at
Alexandria, Va., covering the last four months
of Washington's administration. Another ac-
quisition is the Duplessis portrait of Benjamin
Franklin, presented by Franklin to Louis de
Veilland. mayor of Passy, which passed into the
hands of M. de Senarmont, from whom it was
secured by John Bigelow who gave it to the
library.
A collection of missals, codexes and ancient
books belonging to the late Emperor Franz-
Josef of Austria-Hungary and said to number
upwards of 10,000 items, has been added to the
Vatican Library for the use of students of all
nations. The collection was the property of a
Roman nobleman who donated it to the Jesuits
on condition that if the order was suppressed
it should be placed in the care of the Emperor
who thus became the owner in 1873.
The fine collection of cookery books gathered
by Blanche DuPuy, together with many rarities
in all classes of literature from various con-
signors will be sold at the Anderson Galleries
January 18. The rarer items include a mag-
nificent copy of the original folio edition of
Audubon's "Birds of America" and also of the
"Quadrupeds;" a number of Kate Greenaway
items including presentation copies and original
drawings; Milton's "Paradise Lost," first edi-
tion with the 1667 title; William Pitt's copy
of the Third Folio of Shakespeare; a remark-
able autograph letter of Edgar Allan Poe and
many other lots not less extraordinary.
On January 26 and 27 an unusual aggrega-
tion of rarities, including twenty-nine con-
signments large and small, will be sold at the
American Art Galleries. The largest and
most important of all consignments is a part
of the library of Frederick Corder of London
which contains some very rare Cruikshank,
Rowlandson and Dickens books, many in parts,
in the choicest condition and frequently of the
utmost rarity. There are also rare association
books, first editions of Kipling from the
Martindell collection; collected sets of first
editions of English and American authors, un-
published manuscripts and colored plate books.
It will probably be the most important sale
of the season thus far at the American Art
Galleries this season.
The famous collection of first editions, asso-
ciation books, autograph letters, manuscripts,
and relics of Charles Dickens gathered by the
late Dr. R. T. Jupp of London, will be sold at
the Anderson Galleries February i and 2. The
catalog contains 491 lots including some of the
greatest importance such as "Pickwick," in
parts, with rare points; Dickens "Memoranda
Book" containing ideas for books written and
unwritten ; the manuscript account of the death
of Grip the raven ; upwards of one hundred
autograph letters, some of great personal and
literary interest, and a number of personal
relics among them Dickens' wedding gift to his
bride, the writing case he used in America, etc.,
all duly authenticated by Georgiana Hogarth.
The New York Evening Post sums up the
menace of the Fordney Tariff schedule on books
as follows : "The amount of the general duty
would be raised not merely to the old 25 per
cent level, but, thanks to the American valua-
tion section, in many instances high beyond it —
to 30 or 35 per cent. This increase would
wholly disrupt the long-established co-operative
arrangement between American and British
January 14, 1922
81
publishers to which we owe the possibility of
the publication of many scholarly books of
limited demand and many series of books upon
which British and American authors have
collaborated. It would thus injure no fewer
than 175,000,000 English-reading people thru-
out the world."
"It is a remarkable feature of the present
state of the book market," says the Bookman's
Journal of London, "that there has been so
keen a demand for the writings of moderns, in
particular, perhaps, George Moore, W. B'.
Yeats, Max Beerbohm, John Masefield and
Walter de la Mare, the latter a writer of
peculiar charm and delicacy, whose accession
to the ranks of collected authors has been
too long delayed. Tho the enthusiasm of col-
lectors of such first editions is not a whit less
than their brethren of ampler means who in-
dulge in Caxtons and First Folios the field is
nevertheless open to a much larger circle, and
certainly affords a relative interest."
France has preparations well in hand for the
commemoration this year of the tercentenary
of the birth of Moliere which occurs this year.
The absence of papers written or signed by
him is being discussed anew. As actor, author,
and manager he led one of the busiest of lives
but it is a mystery what has become of every
scrap of his writing. Only three signatures are
known to exist, one of these is owned by the
Comedie Franchise and another is in the Na-
tional Archives. Fifty years ago a receipt of
six lines signed "Moliere" dated 1656 was
brought to light and a few years later another
receipt of four lines was discovered, but both
documents were pronounced forgeries by ex-
perts. There has been many theories and an
incredible amount of searching but without
result.
The January number of the Bookman's
Journal and Print Collector is at hand and in
text and illustration is quite equal to the pre-
ceding three issues in its new form. The first
article is an interesting discussion of the ques-
tion, '"Should Translations Improve upon their
Authors?" by Arthur Symons ; "The Etchings
and Dry-Points of William P. Robins," with
illustrations, is the subject of an illuminating
article by Malcolm C. Salamon; the rarity of
"The First School Prizes," with illustrations,
by A. W. Pollard, of the British Museum will
especially interest collectors; "With Queen
Elizabeth to Westminster," with illustrations,
by W. Jaggard, is alive with historical interest.
In addition to special articles there are the
usual departments, Notes on Prints Old and
New," "Book Reviews," "American Notes" by
George H. Sargent, "Books in the Sale Rooms,"
"Book Prices," "Catalogues from Bookshops,"
"Correspondence," and the specially interesting
feature "Men and Matters." The collecting of
books, autographs and prints has become highly
technical. The collector cannot know too much
about what is doing; even a little knowledge
sometimes saves much money. The need for a
periodical of this kind is apparent to every one.
The way to give it its greatest usefulness is to
subscribe for it, read it. keep in touch with its
editors and encourage them to do their best.
Booksellers and collectors should give this mat-
ter their attention for it is for their interest
that there should be an international periodical
of this kind brought to the highest degree of
efficiency. F. M. H.

Heart-gripping novel of San Francisco and New York
SLEEPING
FIRES
The success of SISTERS-IN-LAW, still going
a year, points to big sales for Mrs. Atherton's 1922 novel,
SLEEPING FIRES, which is likely to be more talked about
even than SISTERS-IN-LAW.
SLEEPING FIRES is more closely packed with action than
any novel Mrs. Atherton has written. The scene is San Francisco
and New York around 1870, but the problems that make up the
plot know no definite period. No novel we have ever read treats
the eternal triangle in a similar manner.

Can Books
be SOLD
The average publisher issues scores of books
each year, scatters half-hearted support among
them, and hopes that one or more may catch the
public fancy and be bought in quantities. He
does not jr//his wares as other manufacturers do.
He gambles on issuing something that the pub-
lic will take away from him.
Each year he repeats this process, abandon-
ing books that showed promise in order to
bring out new failures.
After investigation, the Business Survey of
THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE has come to the conclus-
ion that books can be sold and that advertising
can be an invaluable aid in selling them. Book
publishers have run announcements in THE
TRIBUNE, but (except in the case of subscription
books) have never advertised their wares in this
market. But it can be done — profitably.
We invite discussion with any publisher
who wishes to substitute modern merchan-
dising methods for the lottery element in
his business.

ELEANOR
GATES
100% American this novelist and playwright can be called. Geographically, she
hails from the West, born in Minnesota, brought up in South Dakota' and
California. Her family, with many distinguished members, runs back for three
hundred years in New York and New England. From her childhood dates her
love for the open and for horses. At the age of three, we learn, she could sit her
horse on the Dakota prairies and was presented with her first saddle. From five
to eleven she "punched cows" and, with her brothers, was an active trapper. It
was on the great plains that she first came in contact with literature; Scott,
Dickens, Thackeray, Byron swung at her saddle horn ! At Stanford University
and the University of California, later, her years of study were completed.
A move to New York started her active career of writing, with delightful short
stories followed up by the novels and plays that have won her fame. "The Poor
Little Rich Girl," both as novel and play, made her name a household word
throughout the country. Its appealing fancifulness and droll humor leading
critics to hail her as "the American Barrie." Eleanor Gates is the wife of Fred-
erick Moore, author of "Siberia Today," "The Samovar
Girl" and other popular volumes. While riding continues
to be her favorite recreation, she also is proud of her
abilities as a cook.
THE RICH LITTLE POOR BOY, Eleanor Gates' new novel,
is of most unusual significance. A great big idea is back of it
which will win for it a vast audience of readers. This idea is
that there is a power within each one of us by which we can
win our way to happiness and success, regardless of how smoth-
ering may be the every-day details of our surroundings. In its
pages is told with entrancing fancy and drollest humor the story
of how a little boy in the city slums found high content through
the gift of an imagination which could make a Niagara out of
the kitchen sink and could bring Rockefeller into intimate con-
. verse over the clothes-line telephone wires ! In entertaining
chapters, with pleasing characters and skillfully built action.
Eleanor Gates' novel has an idea in it that will sell it to every
man and woman (and child, too), who finds pleasure between
the covers of a book. $2.00 net.

has been steadily building up a strong following. He

well as pilgrims and convicts, to all parts of the East.
His book is called
COOMER ALI
HERE the sailor novelist opens up a new world of
fiction — the land and sea from Calcutta to Mecca.
Coomer AH is a tale of three of the strongest characters
that ever prayed and dreamed and schemed through the
pages of fiction.
Coomer AH is a fiery little Mohammedan whom Allah
has deserted in his hour of need; so he sets out for
Mecca to tell the whole M/phammedan world that there
is no Allah. Captain Armit is a black-listed British sea
captain whose opium dreams tempt him to try to steal a
valuable cargo. And Mr. Brown is a Far Eastern half-
breed, who specializes in telling others how to escape
punishment for crime on the high seas.
Their story is the product of an impatient inquiring mind
which has penetrated to otherwise unknown depths in the
life of the Orient. You have never read anything like it.
It will be widely advertised, and is the kind of story that
will make record sales on word of mouth publicity. It
will give your book buyers the "S. B. H. Hurst" habit

follow. $1.75

TROUBLE-
THErHOUSE
By KATE JORDAN
Author of "The Next Corner," "Against the Winds," etc.
We expect that 1922 sales of Kate Jordan's story of a girl "Penrod,"
TROUBLE-THE-HOUSE, will be larger than the sales in 1921. The book
is receiving the enthusiastic commendations of leading reviewers — just
the sort of reviews which are sure to start people reading it.
The New York Evening Post says: "A delightful yarn about a little girl
whose vaulting imagination was continually plunging both herself and
her family into difficulties . . . There is much observation and humor-
ous sympathy in the book ... It will prove abundantly entertaining to
ail readers furnished with a humorous appreciation of character." The
l\ew York Herald says: "The book is pervaded by the happy laughter of
youth that will reach the ears of many. It cannot fail to touch many
hearts, too, for beneath the joyousness flows a tender stream of quiet
melancholy. It is a reminiscence that never remains only that, for it
is a novel written by a novelist." The New York Times says: "In Kate
Jordan's latest story we get a book that gives us a girl who is really that.
. . . Susy Gilvarry is as real as 'Penrod,' and as intensely individual, an
individuality that prevents neither of these engaging youngsters from be-
ing typical of childhood, as distinct from ma-
turity, or even near-maturity. No one can read
TROUBLE-THE-HOUSE without shouts of
laughter . . . It is a book as fresh and brac-
ing as a clear wind from the West. To the last
page you read with huge entertainment and
•rrowing sympathy. Here are real characters.
There is a background, charming as an old
print, . . . and here, above all, are real chil-
dren, real girls."

Publishing Association Steps
Ahead
THE new publishers' association, the Na-
tional Association of Book Publishers,
enters upon its third year with a record
of accomplishment and a prospect of future
continuance and usefulness, which, unhappily,
previous organizations had not been able to
show. The first of these, the American Book-
Trade Union, of the early seventies, was start-
ed by the retailers of the Middle West under
the presidency of Isaac B. Aston of Colum-
bus, O., and later under the presidency of An-
son D. F. Randolph of New York, who as
writer, speaker, editor, publisher and book-
seller combined in himself the several relations
of the association. It had but a brief career
of a few years, and its surviving leader is
Timothy Nicholson of Richmond, Indiana, its
treasurer, who still preserves his business re-
lations with the trade a« a retail bookseller
under the same name and in the same lo-
cality as fifty years ago.
Next came the American Publishers' Asso-
ciation, which started upon a useful career
\\ith every promise of continuance, but which
was wrecked by the decisions of the Courts
that some of its actions, however well meant,
violated the Anti-Trust Law, so that it per-
force came to an end, to the serious cost of
many of its members. Curiously enough, it
had scarcely gone out of existence before the
government in the war years insisted that
there ought to be an association of publishers
with which the government could deal. The
National Association of Book Publishers has
now come to the front and is already dealing
with questions, such as tariff and copyright,
in close relationship with our government.
The record of the Association, as presented
at the business meeting, which will be pub-
lished in full in our ensuing number, tells the
story in detail of what are really extraordi-
107
nary accomplishments \vithin the short space
of sixteen months. Recently, the American
Publishers' Copyright League has assimilated
itself with the larger organization as its Bu-
reau of Copyright, and throughout this pe-
riod of organization the new Association has
liad the cordial cooperation of publishers with
very few exceptions, these last largely because
of the fear of having relations with any asso-
ciation whatsoyer in view of the mistaken leg-
islation of several states as to educational
books. Except for these, it represents com-
pletely the present scope and variety of Amer-
ican publishing, and. as we have recently had
occasion to emphasize, at a time when there it
large expectation that American publishing is
at the beginning of a great era of development.
For this result a large share of the credit
must be given to the first and only President
of the Association, who has stood behind the
executive officer and the several committees
with an energy, enthusiasm and business acu-
men which have been one of the chief factors
of the success of the Association. It has not
been given to any President of the United
States, even Mr. Roosevelt, to be nominated
for a third term through a constitutional
amendment, and Mr. Hiltman has been moral-
ly forced by the pressure of his appreciative
associates into the acceptance of the burden
of this post of honor for a third period.
At the business meeting and afterward at
the convivial gathering there was universal
appreciation of the service which he and oth-
ers had done for the whole trade, and the
unanimity of aim and breadth of purpose
which have been shown throughout this short
period of the Association's existence give high
hopes for its future service in a profession
whkh must increase in ratio both with our
increasing population and increasing literacy.
Price Maintenance Decision.
THE conditions of price maintenance is only
slightly clarified by a decision hi the United
States SupremeCourt in the Beechnut Pack-
ing Co. case. This decision, however, decides
that any producer of a product can refuse to
sell direct to any purchaser whose business
methods, such as price-cutting, he objects to.
Whether there can be any general policy of
maintaining prices when goods are passed
through other hands is left undecided. As it
would stand to-day, any publisher is free, as
an individual, to cut off any account, but would
not be free to maintain prices thru others.

THE amendatory copyright bill, of which
the text as presented to Congress on be-
half of the Authors' League is printed
elsewhere, has for its chief purpose the en-
trance of America into that particular family
of nations known as the International Copy-
right Union. This was one of the earlier pur-
poses of copyright reform, even before the
Act of 1891 which, at the instance of the Typo-
graphical Unions, contained the manufacturing
clauses which made entrance into the Union
impossible.
The passage of this bill would not only give
us our place with other civilized nations in
copyright relations, but would be of especial
value at the moment in strengthening the
influence of the new liberal government hi
Canada, which desires reciprocity with Ameri-
ca, in disapproving the copyright measure
with the manufacturing clause directed against
this country, which passed the Canadian Par-
liament last year but has never had approval
of the government.
The draft for the copyright amendatory act
has been modified from time to time as con-
sultation developed criticisms or suggestions.
Section i provides for adhesion to the In-
ternational Copyright Union, which consists
in notification under this enabling act to the
Swiss government and for presidential pro-
clamation, presumably of simultaneous date.
The provision to include in the proclamation
a list of the countries comprising the Union
was omitted because of the awkward precedent
which might require the President to make
proclamation each time a new country ad-
hered to the Union.
Sections 2 and 3 are necessarv concomit-
ants of entrance into the International Copy-
right Union.
Section 4 repeals in detail the manufactur-
ing provisions and references thereto, the re-
peal having the assent of the Typographical
Unions.
Section 5 contains the positive declaration
necessarv for entrance into the International
Copyright Union by extending the scope of
our copyright laws to cover works bv citizens
or subjects of any country which is in the
Union and works by Bothers copyrighted in the
countries of the Union. It is not drawn to
extend such copyright to works previously
published, and it is not vet determined whether
this will be in the way of our becoming a Union
country. On this point question has been
asked of the Director of the International
Copyright Union. Prof. Rothlisber^er at
Berne, who is the highest international author-
ity on copyright. The main and evident re-
quirement is that no formalities should be re-
quired, except those of the country of origin
or first publication, if any. Tho this requires
that works by foreign authors shall not be
subject to the formalities required for do-
mestic copyright within the United States, it
is not to be considered that this is a discrimin-
ation against American citizens, because they
in turn have the right to copyright protection
thruout all the countries of the International
Copyright Union without any other formali-
ties than those in our own country.
Section 6 replaces the absolute prohibition
of importation of Section 31 of the copyright
code by a prohibition conditioned on registra-
tion and deposit by the proprietor of the Am-
erican copyright. This permits importation
without question until such registration and
deposit are made, after which importation is
permissible only by assent of the American
publisher, with the exceptions provided. These
are the same as in the previous law, except
that individuals and libraries must first re-
quire the American publisher to agree within
ten days to furnish the desired foreign copy.
This provision is felt bv publishers to be neces-
sary to assure them of the copyright territory
for which they have arranged, but the libra-
rians object to this interpretation, and by un-
animous vote at the A. L. A. Council meeting
in Chicago, December 30th, have instructed
their Committee to oppose this change, which
must apparently be fought out at the Con-
gressional hearings. It should be noted that
this section is confined exclusively to books
and does not coyer works of art, etc.
Section 7 provides for regulations "as pre-
scribed" by the Supreme Court, which phrase-
ology extends previous regulations to cover
the new circumstances or permits additional
regulations.
Section 8 gives the President immediate au-
thority to act, but dates rights and remedie-
from the subsequent date of the President'
proclamation.
Doubtless, discussions of the bill before th
Congressional Committee will bring
changes which may prove desirable and whi
may or may not be opposed, but it is to
hoped that no opposition will have the effe
of preventing the passage of the bill in i
essentials and of stopping our progress in thi
direction and our better relations with ou
English-speaking neighbor across the imagin
ary boundary which separates us from
Canada.
The American Copyright Act
THE following is the text of the propose<
amendatory act. making it possible for the
United States to enter the Internationa
Copyright Union, as prepared for presentation

hearings.

Publishers Have Optimistic Meeting
Large Attendance at 2nd Annual Meeting of the National Association
THE second annual meeting and luncheon
of the National Association of Book
Publishers was held on January I7th at
the Yale Club with a large number present.
At the business meeting, John W. Hiltman,
President of D. Appleton & Company, was
elected for another term as President, and in
speaking to this nomination John Macrae of
E. P. Button & Company made a glowing and
well-deserved tribute to the initiative, tact and
enthusiasm which had been shown by Mr.
Hiltman and which had been responsible for
the growth of the organization and the value
if tne work accomplished.
The report of the last meeting was read by
Frank C. Dodd, the Secretary, and the Trea-
surer, Alexander Grosset, showed that the
Association had lived within its budget and had
also been handling funds of the book promo-
tion campaigns which are carried on as a sep-
arate enterprise. Both Mr. Dodd and Mr.
Grosset were reelected Secretary and Trea-
surer, and as V ice-Presidents John Macrae
of E. P. Button & Company, Charles C. Shoe-
maker of the Perm Publishing Company, Al-
fred Mclntyre of Little Brown & Company,
Ogden T. McClurg of A. C. McClurg & Com-
pany were elected. The directors for three
years will be Wv E. Pulsifer of B. C. Heath
& Company, William Thomson of Thomas
Nelson Sons, Edward S. Mills of Longmans,
Green & Company, Ogden T. McClurg of A.
C. McClurg & Company, George L. Wheelock,
The Century Company. Ten other directors
carry over for the ensuing year.
The President in his address spoke of the
fine cooperation that had been obtained from
the Board of Birectors and the Executive Com-
mittee, and congratulated the organization on
the fact that the publishing business had
passed through a most disturbing year, suffer-
ing less than most lines of commodities. He
emphasized the business aspects of publishing
and the fact that publishers must look at their
investments and depreciations on the same
basis as other manufacturers do if they are
to keep in aggressive condition for new enter-
prises and successful selling. He believed that
all lines of business had found the valbe of
quick turnover and that retailers would be
more likely than before to buy often and sell
quickly, and publishers must on their part
watch against accumulating non-fluid invest-
ment.
The Executive Secretary made a detailed re-
port of the work of the year, showing the
continuous activity that goes on at the office
and the pressing problems that had come up
in 1921. problems of wage scales, of forty-
four hour week, of freight rates, traveling ex-
penses, photo-engraving contracts, tariff, copy-
right, all of which made the weekly meetings
of the Executive Committee both necessary
and continuously valuable to the whole in-
dustry. in the new quarters there is room for
a large conference room and a smaller com-
nmtcc room, as well as two offices, one of
The Committee on Tariff, through its Chair-
man, John .Macrae, reported on it-, activities

not need protection, except in so far as the
^A*1™??1.1 "eeded Avenue from all imports
Mr. Melcher, reporting for the Bureau of
Copyright outlined to the members the fea-
tures of the new Copyright Bill, and gave to
members a draft of the revision as it was be-
ing presented to Congress. He pointed out the
importance of our entrance into the Berne
Convention and of the most creditable atti-
tude of the printers toward this change
Mr. Shoemaker reported for the Committee
on JNIew Outlets and told of the many inquiries
received for information about new bookstores
of the circulanzation of the pamphlet on
Opening A Book Bepartment" Copies of
the new pamphlet on "The Successful Book-
shop ' were given their first distribution. This
is intended to give newcomers into the field
of small, intimate bookshops some practical
information on how to begin business. Mr
Pulsifer of D. C. Heath Company reported
for the educational group, and Mr. Watson
ol W. L. Saunders Company for the medical
group. Mr. Boubleday, speaking for trade
publishers, made one of his characteristically
pungent speeches, suggesting that one of the
differences between a publisher and the aver-
age manufacturer 'was that the publisher
would sometimes issue books out of purr
friendship and against his best judgment as
a publisher, while nc manufacturer of tools.
for instance, would put out a screw driver
unless he felt that was the one best in^tru-
ment for its purpose.
Mr. McClurg, speaking on Middle Western
conditions, gave a talk that was listened to
with great interest, analyzing the reports that
had been coming in from the cotton belt, where
things were more encouraging from the corn
belt, where there was naturally a strong re-
flection of the farm product prices, and from
the Northwest, where the first reports in were
highly encouraging. He emphasized the im-
portance of the general promotion of books
by the publisher, in order that the jobber and
• retailer may get full results from their own
selling effort. At the close of the meeting,
Mr. Stokes expressed the opinion, which was
echoed in a rising vote, that the thanks of the
whole organization be extended to President
Hiltman for what he has done for publishing
l\2
The Publishers' Weekly
and for the Association during the year and
that this expression of opinion should be writ-
ten into the minutes. At one o'clock, those
who had attended the business meeting and
others from the publishing organizations gath-
ered at a luncheon in the Club, one hundred
people being seated.
After the luncheon, President Hiltman
turned the gavel over to Frederick A. Stokes,
member of the Executive Committee of the
Association, and deservedly favorite toastmas-
ter in publishing circles. Mr. Stokes referred
to the gathering as "a little disarmament con-
ference among the book publishers,'' and con-
gratulated the group on the large and enthu-
siastic attendance.
He introduced as the first speaker Joy El-
mer Morgan, Editor of the Journal of the Na-
tional Education Association. Mr. Morgan
made a brilliant and suggestive speech, under
the subject of "The Education Renaissance
and the Book Publisher." He evidenced the
fact that there was a world-wide determina-
tion that education should be really universal,
and that, in this country especially, organiza-
tion was being rapidly rounded out so that we
should have better teachers, and therefore
more intelligent and better graduates from our
schools. He spoke of the important place of
general reading in any educational effort and
of the place that book publishers had in the
general scheme of educational increase. Mr.
iMorgan was followed by Carl H. Milam, Sec-
retary of the American Library Association;
whose suggestions as to what the libraries
were doing and how this fitted into such plans
that the publishers and booksellers were doing
were very pertinent to the atmosphere of the
were very pertinent to the atmospnere of the
meeting and highly applauded.
Representing the Authors' League of Amer-
ica, of which he is President, Jesse Lynch
Williams made a graceful speech, and em-
phasized the constructive work that the au-
thors were doing. Besides their initiative in
bringing this country into the Berne Confer-
ence, he spoke of their efforts toward heading
off censorship. Very recently the League called
together a group of people representing va-
rious theatrical interests : managers, actors and
writers, and the concrete suggestion coming
from that discussion was that a plan should
be made for the providing of a panel of one
hundred to three hundred people in the city
or vicinity, women from civic clubs perhaps
or men prominent in city affairs, representa-
tives drawn from the universities, etc., and
from this large panel of intelligent people there
should be drawn a jury of twelve who would
be called upon when any complaint should be
registered against a play and pass opinion as
to its worthiness. If it was judged by such
a jury to be a bad play, it would be taken
from the stage under contract agreed to by
managers, authors and actors interested. It
was thought that some such agreement could
be reached.
The toastmaster read a letter of greeting
from Eugene L. Herr, President of the Ameri-
can Booksellers' Association, who was pre-
vented from being a guest.
George W. Hopkins, Vice-President and
General Sales Manager of the Columbia
Graphophone Company, gave a stimulating
talk on "Merchandising Nationally," making
many suggestions based on his experience in
several lines of merchandise. The program
closed with a humorous talk by Donald Og-
den Stewart, author of "A Parody Outline of
History." At the head table with the speak-
ers and as guests of honor were those to
whom Mr. Stokes referred as "deans in the
profession," W. W. Appleton. George Haven
Putnam and R. R. Bowker.
Biography in Fictional Form
THE News Letter issued by the Apprentices'
Library of Philadelphia, of which Bessie
Graham is now librarian, records that the
name of the library in its original meaning is
now obsolete. The students of library science
at the William Penn Evening High School have
been serving as volunteer workers in the library
in order to get practical experience in library
work, so that the library again seems to be
truly an apprentices' library. This News Letter
tells about the library's timely topics shelf,
which changes weekly. In November, these
were the chosen subjects:

Arms Conference.

AX ATTRACTIVE VISTA OF BOOKS AXD ILLUSTRATIONS ARRANGED BY BUU.OTK's
BOOK DEPARTMENT, LOS ANGELES
Browsing in Bullock's Book
Corner
PHAT is the title which a grateful patron
* gives to two columns of appreciation in the
Los Angeles Saturday Night of the noon-hour
pleasures to be found browsing at Bullock's.
"To find a literary atmosphere in a depart-
ment store book section is an unusual circum-
stance, writes the reporter, yet that is the
achievement of the delightful" corner of Bul-
lock's, where Miss Foster's book depart-
ment is.
"Two weeks ago the sympathetic manage-
ment gave Miss Foster liberal space on the
second floor of the seventh street frontage of
the big «tore, which already imparts a private
Hbrary effect, rather than that reflected by the
ordinary commercial display of books. This is
due to the presence of numerous original paint-
ings of the colored illustrations in the Christ-
mas books, adult and juvenile, tastefully ar-
ranged on tables and easels.
"Carved benches, placed .in sunny niches con-
:iguous to groups of books, judiciously selected
>y Miss Foster, add to the attractiveness of the
ensemble and invite the browser to sit down
and dip into the contents. Here one may for-
get the roar of traffic below, the call oi the
office to return to business duties and thi- pr. ra-
ise to one's stenographer to be 'back at twa.'
That pledge was given before the Bullock lure
was realized.
"Miss Foster knows her books, and has so
classified and grouped the collection of current
novels, histories, essays and standard works,
that her latest joined assistant may without
difficulty lead the tentative nurchaser straight
to the desired goal. Especially well arranged is
the children's section.
"Gray walls, with soft gray silk hangings.
form a soothing background and give the right
tone to the surroundings. Serenity cf mind is
an excellent aid to the contemplation of books.
and not often in a department store can this
attribute be induced.
"Miss Foster realizes that the buying public
will not expect in a department stnrc book sec-
tion everything that the Los Angeles public li-
brary, for example, can yield on percniiitorx
'summons. Her aim has been to keep well
abreast of the notable works of fiction, ever-
selling stories and juvenile literature. In this
way, the ready wants of the multitude arc sup-
plied, while the more discerning readers, and
harder to suit, are seldom disappointed."

The Publishers' Weekly
Good Bookmaking
NOT all the beautiful volumes that came
rapidly to the office as the 1921 season
came to a close could be included in the
last summary and comment on America's good
book-making. While the word "gift book" is
no longer used as a designation of a type of
volume that reaches its one and only audience
between Thanksgiving and Christmas, that
season is the best opportunity for marketing
handsome volumes in which the investment
for illustrations and plates has been heavy.
The Penn Publishing Company has had two
beautiful volumes with the advantage of Frank
E. Schoonover's handsome paintings. Perhaps
no other artist working in the historical field
comes so near to the Wyeth standard. The
colored illustrations in Lucy Madison's
"Lafayette" have been finely reproduced, and
the head-pieces are equally attractive. The
book has a type page very suitable to the
needs of this subject. The Penn Publishing
Company also provides Schoonover illustrations
for "Toilers of the Trails" by George Marsh.
These are in black and white with the ex-
ception of the frontispiece.
Detmold's illustrations of animal life have
always been held in high esteem, and Dodd,
Mead & Company produced a beautiful volume
of Fabre's "Book of Insects" with a score or
more of these beautiful drawings in full color
and a type page of great attractiveness.
The new care given in book illustration is
responsible for the colored drawings of
"Famous Colonial Houses" by Paul M. Hollis-
ter (David McKay Company.) These draw-
ings are by James Preston and illustrate a
dozen of the beautiful places of our early
times. His ability to render the architectural
details and yet give the atmosphere of the
fine old places gives this book a high standing
among the illustrated books of the year.
Besides his edition of "Scottish Chiefs,"
Wyeth produced thru the David McKay Com-
pany "Rip Van Winkle," some of the drawings
being in his very best and most successful
vein. The book has many black and whites as
well as interesting lining papers.
A fine example of the best rendering of
architectural photographs is shown in the
"Small French Buildings" by Coffin, Polhem-
us and Worthington, published by Charles
Scribner's Sons. These photographs have been
printed in a brown tint, and are as rich and
deep as a rotogravure in their reproduction.
An unusual children's book comes from
Duffield Company, "Gargantua," with illustra-
tions by Adrien Leroy, reproduced from the
French edition of a few years back. The full
page plates are something in the vein of Job's
famous drawings, and the black and whites
thickly scattered thru the text are bound to
give the book added zest for the reader.
Lovers of the writings of W. H. Hudson
will be pleased to find a new American edition
of "The Shepherd's Life" with the delightful
illustrations of Bernard C. Gotch, which has
been set up and printed in fhis country by E.
P. Dutton & Company. The black and white
drawings and chapter headings are perfectly
in keeping with the mood of the book.
Harcourt, Brace & Company have designed
a very attractive 121110 lor their "Modern Rus-
sian Poetry" by Deutsch and Yarmolinsky.
The type selected and page headings are well
balanced, and the presswork clear and clean.
An interesting volume of plays is Mac-
millan's edition of "Four Plays for Dancers"
by W. B. Yeats. The illustrations and cover
design are very effective.
Two attractive volumes of poems are
"Dreams Out of Darkness'' by Jean Starr
Untermeyer (Huebsch) and "The Captive Lion
and Other Poems" by William Henry Davies
(Yale University Press.) Another fine volume
from the Yale Press is "Art and Religion" by
Von Ogden Vogt. This shows the impress of
Mr. Rollins's masterly hand in the selection
of types and in the planning of the introduc-
tory pages. The type being used for the page
numbering is unusual and effective, being
placed at the bottom of the page.
From Fresno, Cal., comes a well designed
book entitled "A California Pilgrimage," pub-
lished by private subscription for Louis C.
Sanford, and printed by Bruce Brough at San
Francisco. The pages show a fine use of
Caslon with delicately colored initials and in-
teresting chapter headings The book would
be a creditable piece of work for any book
manufacturer.
To Alfred Fowler of Kansas City collectors
and students of the book-plate are indebted for
a book entitled "Book-plates for Beginners"
with twentv or thirtv reproductions. As with
all the books from Mr. Fowler, the typography
is worthy of the subject being handled.
Following the beautiful edition of Dante's
"Inferno," printed by the Updike Press last
spring for the translator Eleanor Vinton
Murray, comes another handsome volume con-
taining all three books of "The Divine
Comedy," translated by Melville Best Ander-
son, and printed by the World Book Company
of Yonkers. The volume is handsomely de-
signed and beautifully bound in Italian board
with vellum back.
Houghton MirHin has made a beautiful book
out of "Fir Flower Tablets," one of the most
pleasant and well planned books the recent
weeks have brought forward. The problem of
setting a well balanced page from material in
such broken form was not an easy one, and has
been carried out with perfect success. The
binding in red boards with blue back is strik-
ing and yet in excellent taste.
A good example of sound book-making for
a I2mo novel is shown in "The Romantic
Lady" by Michael Arland, published by Dodd,
Mead & Company.
An attractive little book from Knopf is "Lit-
tle Rays of Moonshine" by A. P. Herbert, well
planned to meet the style of the contents.

Reminiscences of a Book Scout
By Joseph Jewett Barton
WHEN I lived in Brooklyn, Roger Mif-
flin and I used to take weekly turns doing
the Ghetto over in Newark, and I believe
it was he who unconsciously saved me a lot of
work one day ; perhaps he did not, but somebody
with a good eye for values, did.
There used to be a man down on a side street
who "buys and sells anything and everything,"
and his place looked as tho he lived up to his
sign. He isn't there now so you needn't start
for Newark toniglht ; at present he keeps a gro-
cery store in Waterbury, Conn.
He was a peculiar cuss, always sat in an old
chair directly in the door-way and if he didn't
like your looks or knew you too well, he
wouldn't move and let you in, but just growl
that he didn't have anything today that would
interest you.
I made a hit with him finally, by purchasing
a picture he had on the sidewalk out in front,
at his own price. A fine, cobwebby, dusty bit
of architecture it was too, the glass looked as
tho it should be ploughed 'but it was good
enough for me and besides I wanted to get in-
side. This was about the sixth trip there and
I hadn't been thru the door yet.
Then I asked, "Haven't you any more pic-
tures," and he said I could look around if I
wanted to. I looked, and over in a corner be-
hind a lot of iron beds I saw three soap boxes
nailed up, that suggested books to me. "What's
in the boxes," I asked Growly, and he said
"books," and then I got the boxes opened and
found that all the good ones were in one box.
In the other two boxes there wasn't a book
worth over twenty-five cents at retail ; all fine,
crisp, clean copies they were, but of absolutely
no use to me.
But the one box was like a long, cool drink
after a hike thru a desert.
This business of pawing over a lot of Sun-
day school, theological, middle-aged law, med-
ical books and cheap fiction when you are look-
ing for real stuff, gets a little tiresome after
a While.
I found Mark Twain's "Jumping Frog,"
New York, 1867, first edition, first issue, with
the perfect "i" on page 108 ; "Leaves of Grass,"
Boston, 1860-61, with the tinted portrait of the
author and the orange colored cloth cover, first
issue of this edition : Valentine's "Manuals oi
the Common Council, 1845 to 1850 inclusive,"
and I assure you the manuals of those dates,
except 1850, are pretty desirable books.
Then there were several firsts of Harte and
two of Hearn; "Ghombo Zebes," 1885, and
"Chita," 1889; the rest of the box, some forty
books, were all quite ordinary, but good sellers..
Strange that all the good ones are in one
box, I thought, wonder what happened, but I
kept back that query for another day. just got
an expressman and shipped my box to Brook-
lyn. The whole transaction, including express
charges cost me less than six dollars and I
realized eventually quite a fair day's wages.
On my next trip to Newark I asked Growly
Haven t you any good books anywhere, that
box was pretty fair, but what I want is real
books, and I will give you a good price for
them; now stir around and see if you haven't
some more hidden away."
My conversation seemed to interest him, and
he commenced poking around in the corners and
behind old bureaus and various junk, mum-
bling to himself all the time, and I was help-
ing him poke.
At last he broke into intelligible speech to
the effect that "A smart Aleck book buyer came
into my shop last winter and picked out a lot
of books and put them into a box, and then he
tried to jew me down on the price and I got
mad and I wouldn't sell them to him at any
price."
I bet Growly talked to me an hour telling
me about that "smart Aleck feller" and I wasn't
interested a little bit, but I had to stand and
listen to it or he'd probably get "mad" at me
and I'd follow Aleck.
What I wanted was the box that Aleck had
packed but we never found it, thtf I suggested
that he had sold it to somebody else. No! it
wasn't sold, it \vas around somewhere, because
he hadn't let any feller wanting books in there
since he fired Aleck.
I put in a full day looking over that shop
and there wasn't another book in it. It finally
dawned on me that Growly had his number of
boxes twisted, and there never had been but
•three boxes, and I already had bought Aleck's
box.
On subsequent trips I always asked if he had
found that box yet, but he never had, and could
not seem to 'understand where it had gone.
As a decent Christian gentleman I suppose I
should have given Mifflin half of that box;
instead I never even mentioned it to him. but
then again, he had his chance and failed, and
I certainly earned what I got
Growly felt so badly about not finding the
box that a couple of months later, in order to
square himself and also in consideration of two
dollars cash in hand for the information, told
me that a countryman of his had bought two
truck loads of books the day before and "He
lives in a flat over on Broome Street, and you
should drop in on him, but don't tell him I
sent you."
I dropped in, and in his dining and sitting
rooms he had about three tons of books ; where
they came from I don't know, it doesn't pay
to be inquisitive when you are trying to buy
from people of that kind, but they certainly
were not from a nrivate library, and were the
queerest mixture T ever saw.
The Publishers' Weekly
Our Army of Students
NEVER has American youth been pound-
ing so persistently on the doors of the
colleges, and the reports of registration
that have come in indicate an increased enroll-
ment of about 7.1%. The Boston Transcript,
in commenting on this increased demand for
educational facilities, gives some interesting
statistics as to the size of this army of stu-
dents.
In a selected list of seventy-four colleges, it
finds a total of 197,000 students, an average
of nearly 3,000 per college, ranging from the
University of California and New York Uni-
versity, with over 10,000 each, to Gark Uni-
versity with 200. Of these totals, 57,000 are
women. Besides this, these same colleges are
largely interested in extending their facilities
thru summer schools and extension courses. In
this one list of colleges there are 73,500 among
the summer students and 92,200 among the ex-
tension students. In this latter column the
University of California has a total of over
20,000 and the University of Wisconsin over
18,000.
The importance of higher education in mak-
ing lovers and users of books is an obvious
inference to a book-trade paper, but it is in-
teresting in noting such figures to realize that
institutions of higher education are becoming
more and more conscious that, in order that
the effect of their work may extend into the
aduft life of the graduate, courses and lectures
must 'be so shaped that the student shall see
that education is a thing to go on for life and
not an operation to be passed thru and called
finished. On all Slides one sees efforts of the in-
structors to connect up courses with practical
life. There are libraries on every campus and
a greater variety of use of these libraries than
ever before. In many cases there are sectional
libraries so that the student of agriculture or
architecture or domestic economy visualizes
books as a part of his or her future career.
'Side by side with the effort to increase this
extension of instruction thru books and per-
sonal reading, should go the appeal of book
ownership, which, as every book lover knows,
gives a certain added interest to reading that
can not be had from anv borrowed book. Prob-
ably out of the seventy- four colleges whose
totals have been quoted not more than a score
are in cities or towns where there are book-
stores of real cultural possibilities. The move-
ment for better college town bookshops has
been well begun, and in many colleges one
will now find a bookshop not only handling
the textbooks, which is the conventional work
of a college town bookstore, but providing the
browsing ground for increased personal read-
ing.
With the experience in hand "lined in these
shops there should be determined effort on the
part of those who believe in the Book and who
know the value of a personal library, to in-
crease the number of good bookshops in college
communities. This is so important a point that
faculties would do well to consider it as the
thing for them to help brip<r about and not a
thing to be left to chance.
In one college community where a bookstore
was started, a few instructors felt that it
would be an instrument for diverting students
from their textbooks and therefore .to be
promptly discouraged. This same bookstore,
however, proved its worth and is now appreci-
ated by the entire institution. A conception of
a college as a place where certain textbooks
must be finished to the exclusion of all other
humanizing and cultural influences will not
stand analysis, and the colleges not having such
book centers at hand should give impulse to
this important movement and it should be
watched and encouraged as one of the signifi-
cant movements that will be a marked feature
in the growth of the book-trade in the next
few years.

Passing the Word Along
ANEW effort in the way of increasing book
sales thru the influence of satisfied readers
is shown in a card found in copies of William
George Jordan's new book. This enclosure in
the form of a post-card reads:
"I have just finished reading 'The Trusteeship of
Life.' by William George Jordan, who wrote
Kingship of Self -Control" It is a big little book, big
in its fine, sane attitude toward life, fresh in i]
charm and inspiration and in its individuality.
is a book to own and to read. It helped me. and
I want it to help you." .
Above this paragraph is a place for a fi
name and below a line for the sender's signa-
ture. In small type is the information. "Order
from your bookseller or from the publishers
Price only $1.25." This plan certainly make
it easy for a pleased reader to recommend the
book to a friend with the least trouble.

The Tariff Threat and the Retailers
The Fordney Bill Would Seriously Cripple Long-Standing Activities
THE following brief on the Schedules re-
lating to Books was prepared by Charles
E. Lauriat Company, Booksellers, Boston,
and is part of the evidence being considered by
the Finance Committee of the Senate.
January 9, 1922.
To THE COMMITTEE ON FINANCE:
As a dealer in 'both American and English
published books, having an established business
of fifty years' standing, this Company respect-
fully begs to submit for your consideration a
few thoughts and a few facts relating to a
tariff on books.
This Company deals both in new books, which
are mostly published in the United States, and
in old books, fine editions, and rare books,
which have been published more than twenty
years, either in the United States or in Eng-
land. If we sell more fine editions of English
publications than of American, it is because
more fine editions haive been published in Eng-
land than in America. And more have been
published there because there has been, and
still is, a greater demand for fine editions in
England than in this country. No tariff law
can alter that fact, and the imposition of a
tariff on books published more than twenty
years would not cause the publication here of
any books which would not be published here
without such a tariff. Nor will introducing the
uncertainties of American Valuation of books
increase the amount of printing and binding for
the American laboring man.
In closing this introductory statement we
wish to call attention to the fact that books
do not compete with each other. The Copy-
right Law prevents competition between dif-
ferent editions of the same book — there can be
no rival different editions — and books by dif-
ferent authors, even >if on the same subject, are
not competitive, but are rather to be considered
supplemental to each other. The sale of one
is likely to increase the sale of the other, and
the sale of both together is likely to be more
than twice what the sale of either one alone
would have been if the other had not been pub-
lished. In other words, the importation of Eng-
lish books will increase, rather than diminish,
the sale of American books.
With this general statement, we pass to the
details of the matter to which we desire re-
spectfully to call attention.
Paragraph 1310
We respectfully protest against the clause in
Paragraph 1310 in the proposed tariff, reading;
"books bound wholly or in part in leather,
the chief value of which is in the binding, not
specially provided for, 33 1-3 per centum ad
valorem ;" not only because the clause is am-
biguous and difficult of interpretation, but also
because 33 1-3 per centum ad valorem is a
higher rate of duty than is necessary for the
full protection of the American binder.
A similar clause in the Payne-Aldrich Tariff
(August 5, 1909, book schedule, No. 415) read
as follows:
"... all the foregoing wholly or in chief
value of paper," made the assessment for duty
so difficult of determination that an appeal was
made for a Treasury Decision and T. D. 30,326
was rendered February 4, 1910, in which the
Department practically instructed appraiseri to
ignore this clause entirely, as it was not the
intention of Congress to raise the duty on
books.
In the present Underwood Tariff, in Para-
graph 337, the same words were originally
written in; "all the foregoing wholly or in
chief value of paper," but before the enact-
ment of the bill, the words were stricken out,
as you will see by reading Paragraph 329.
In regard to the rate of "33 1-3 per centum
ad valorem," on books, "bound wholly or in
part in leather," we would say that we pre-
sent the following evidence to show why this
rate of duty is unnecessarily high.
The Scroll Club Bindery, 232 East i25th
Street, New York, have issued a "Trade
Price List," dated October 1921, on which
their price for binding a book 10 x 7 in
"half Erench levant, gilt top, two line panel
with a little tooling, gold line on sides," is
$540.
Robert Riviere & Son, 29 Heddon Street,
Regent Street, London on their "Trade Price
List," dated September 12, 1921, quote the
price of binding a book 10 x (tl/t in "half
levant, two or three line panel and center,
gold lines on sides, 24/-." At 21 cents to
the shilling, which is the present rate of ex-
change, and which will probably show a
gradual advance, rather than decline, makes
the binding cost $5.04.
On the Scroll Club Bindery price list, a
book bound in "full French levant, gilt top,
two line panel with a little tooling on the
back and sides, gold border inside, gold roll
on edges," size 10 x 7, costs $I5-5O-
On Riviere & Son's price list, a book bound
in "full levant, two or three panel and center,
gold line on sides, inside and edges." size 10
x 6l/2, costs 66/— , or at 21 cents to the
shilling, $13.86.
On the Scroll Club Bindery price list, the
cost of "Solander Cases" (such cases are
made to hold books which the collector wishes
to retain in the original binding), 'Trench
levant, Jansen finish," (meaning no gold tool-
ing on the back), is $16.00.
On Riviere & Son's price list, the cost <
"Pull-off Cases" (known in this country
as Solander Cases), "full levant plain
(called in this country Jansen finish), c
75/3 or at 21 cents to the shilling, $15 75-
The above figures show that a 15 Pfrcent ad
valorem duty, as is the present tariff, it
the American binder ample protection from
120

composition with British binders. A higher
tariff would unduly and unfairly increase the
price of such books, without any compensating
benefits.
We do not quote prices from French binders,
as they have not yet reestablished their binding
business to anything like pre-war quality and
standing. German leather binders were never
competitors of American binders.
As proof that the wages in English binderies,
of men and women, have advanced over 200
percent above pre-war level, we quote the fol-
lowing wages paid in the bindery of W. Root
& Son, 29 Eagle Street, Holborn, London,
which is a typical British workshop and in
which the same wages are paid as in all shops
doing binding in leather :
Minimum for Men,
pre-war 35/ — per week
Minimum for Women,
pre-war I3/ — per week
48/-
Minimum for Men,
as of August 10, 1921 . TOO/ — per week
Minimum for Women,
as of August 10, 1921. 5 1/ — per week
These wages are for a 48-hour week, and are
minimum wages paid. All workmen and work-
women after one year receive an increased
wage. It is therefore clear that the American
binders have little to fear from the competition
of low wages abroad, as wages there are now
about the same as wages here in the book bind-
ing trade.
We would therefore suggest that Paragraph
329 of the present tariff be retained, "books
of all kinds, bound or unbound, including blank
books, slate books, and pamphlets, engravings,
photographs, etchings, maps, charts, music in
books or sheets, and printed matter, all the
foregoing and not specially provided for in
this section, 15 per centum ad valorem," etc.
"American Valuation" as Affecting Books
We wish to protest against Section 402
commonly referred to as the American Valua-
tion clause, as impractical, even impossible, as
applied to 'books. Not only do books not com-
pete with one another, as above pointed out, but
the costs that enter into the manufacture of
two books, even on the same subject, are never
the same. They vary, commencing with the
royalty paid to the author, thru the various
parts of the manufacture of the book, such as
paper, printing, illustrations, binding, etc., etc.,
so that it would be impossible to compare the
imported book with any other, and so there
could be found no "comparable and competi-
tive product of the United States."
For example, the book by Captain Dickinson,
entitled, "Big Game Shooting on the Equator ;
A Sportsman's Experiences in East Africa,"
bears no relation to Roosevelt's "African Game
Trails," except so far as they each deal with
big game hunting in Africa.
The former book was published in England
some years ago, but after a fair sale in Eng-
land, it was there offered at a much reduced
price from that at which it was published. It
was published at i6/ — and offered by the pub-
lishers, to close out the copies that were not
sold, at 5/6. At this price it was an attractive
purchase to many American firms and they
bought it and paid duty on that price, inasmuch
as the book had some interest to collectors in-
terested in big game hunting.
The importing of Captain Dickinson's book
in no way interferes with the sale of Colonel
Roosevelt's book. The latter wholesales for
$3.84, and if duty were charged at this rate
on Dickinson's book, it would compel a sales
price that would be too high to appeal to the
American buyer. No bookseller could force the
Dickinson book on a customer asking for the
Roosevelt book, but sales of the Dickinson
book would probably increase sales of the
Roosevelt book. In this way the American in-
dustry would be benefitted by the importation
of such books, and the application of the pro-
posed American Valuation would defeat its own
purpose, so far as books are concerned.
If for the benefit of the manufacturing of
certain other merchandise, the American Valu-
ation clause must stand, there should be written
into it a clause that would "exempt books."
The above example of Captain Dickinson's
book is an instance of the offering by publishers
of so-called "remainders," by which we mean
the unsold stock of books left on hand after
the home market has Seen fully satisfied. Both
English and American publishers follow this
plan and dispose of such remainders at a price
that will effect a complete clean-up.
These English remainders are sold at a frac-
tion of the publication price to booksellers and
by them to the public, in most cases at less
than one half the price which the book would
have originally cost the buyer to import. If
any other than a small ad valorem duty based
upon the cost to us should be assessed, this
large and important part of their business
would 'be ruined ; and the business of American
publishers would not be thereby increased, for
none of these books are published in America,
and the sale of books published here would not
be increased, but probably decreased.
We respectfully submit that from no point
of view is American Valuation of books de-
sirable. It would be not only difficult and un-
fair in administration, but in certain cases it
would be disastrous to long established and
legitimate businesses. It is impossible to show
that it would benefit anybody, but it is clear
that it would deprive many readers of an op-
portunity to obtain excellent books at a low
price.
Copyright Protection
In drafting Tariff provisions relating to
books, a matter which should always be taken
into consideration is the Copyright Law. No
foreign made 'book which has been copyrighted
in the United States can be imported into this
country except under the provision which per-
mits of the bringing in of "one copy at one
time, for individual use and not for sale," ex-
January 21, 1922
cept to public libraries and this applies to
"remainders" as well as to all new books.
(See Copyright Law, as amended by the Act
of August 24, 1912, Page 30, Section 31, Para-
graph D, ",First").
Every prominent new book published in Eng-
land is offered to an American buyer to see
if he will take it for the American market and
either copyright it under the Law, or import
a few hundred copies for the American mar-
ket. A copy of the book is sent to the pros-
pective American buyer and if he decides it
would have a sufficient sale in America to
warrant the issuing of an addition of 2000 or
3000 copies, he buys and copyrights it, and
then sets up, prints and binds the book in this
country, thereby giving full employment to
the American paper manufacturer, type-setter,
printer and binder.
Having complied with the copyright law, it
excludes the possibility of any foreign edition
of this book ever being imported into this coun-
try for sale no matter how low the price abroad
may be.
This Copyright Law, operating in conjunction
with the tariff rate, affords real protection to
the American book industry. The tariff situa-
tion might be quite different if there were no
Copyright Law. But having that Law. the
tariff rate, in theory and in practice, should be
fixed at the lowest point consistent with insur-
ing that the great bulk of the books purchased
here shall be published here. If the tariff is
lower than this point, then importations from
abroad will be excessive and the industry will
not be receiving its fair protection. If higher,
then books which have only a small sale here,
but which may be very valuable from an edu-
cational, literary or scientific point of view, and
so be very desirable, will cost an undue amount.
In that case, the tariff would operate unfavor-
ably to 'the Nation, and even the publishing
business would not benefit.
It is for the Congress to judge as to just
where the theoretically correct paint should be
fixed. For many years it has stood at 15%
on all 'books published within twenty years.
Is there any evidence whatever that too many
books are being imported? Is it not true that
practically every book which has any con-
siderable sale in this country is also printed and
bound in this country?
We respectfully submit that a duty of i$%
on books published abroad within twenty years
has been shown by long experience to be high
enough to afford all reasonable and proper pro-
tection to the publishers and workers of this
country. And we submit that any increase of
duty will not increase the business of publish-
ing, but will amount to a tax on learning, to the
detriment of the country.
Elimination of Free List
We now pass to another matter which is of
vital importance to the book-trade. Book:
published within twenty years are not referred
to in this part of this brief.
Under the Bill as passed by the House,
books published more than twenty years are
121
not included in the Free List, altho such books
have been free of duty during practically the
whole period that our business has been es-
tablished. The admission of such books Duty
Free has done much to stimulate the reading
of books in this country and the assembling of
valuable collections of books which have !*en
of great educational value to the American stu-
dent and public.
The American workman and publisher have
lost nothing by the importing Duty Free of
books printed over twenty years, for not one
such book in a thousand would be repuWished
in this country, no matter how high the tariff
were. The protection that would be afforded by
the proposed change would be none whatever,
while the injury to those who deal in old books
and to those who buy them would be very
great.
In the case of Old and Rare books, first edi-
tions and books whose principal value is their
historical or literary association, the imposition
of a duty is nothing less than absurd.
For example, the Folio Shakespeare, pub-
lished in 1632, is of great value and intcVest to
a book collector and its importation into this
country at a value of, say, £500 in no way af-
fects the American workman of today; and
the duty on this book would in no way benefit
the workman's position, and would do much to
discourage the forming of private educational
libraries in this country.
Is there any excuse whatever for the im-
position of a duty on books more than twenty
years old?
The only claim of a reason for the proposed
change that has ever been suggested to the
writer is that the repairing or rebinding abroad
within twenty years of books more than twenty
years old, and the importation of such re-
paired or rebound books Duty Free works a
detriment to the American binder.
It is worth while for your Committee, and
for the Congress, to examine this claim care-
fully, and to determine, before imposing such
a duty, whether the benefits to be received by
the American binder are sufficient to outweigh
the injury which will be done to those who have
built up a business in old books and to those
who desire to purchase them for their libraries.
It is true that a portion of the old books
which are imported have been rebound within
twenty years. And to this extent there .is
basis in fact for the argument presented.
But we submit that if a duty were jtnpos
on old books it would bring very little addi-
tional work to American binders. It woulc
either keep the books out of the country en-
tirely or it would increase their price by t
amount of the duty; and in either case th<
American binder would not get the work. Wit]
old books on the free list the American bindei
now gets a portion of the rebindm*.
position of a duty would cut down what 1
now getting, because fewer old books '
quire rebinding would be imported.
It is not by the imposition of a duty on c
books that the American binder will be^t
his own interests. His interests will best 1
122
The Publishers' Weekly
served by improving his skill and learning to
bind books in an artistic manner comparable
with the binders of England and France. The
binder in this country lias never apprenticed
himself to his work for as many years as has
Che workman abroad.
It is true that there has never been the large
public demand here for extra leather bindings
and highly artistic work that there has been
abroad. But it is also true that in the few
cases where binders have really equipped them-
selves to do high class work, they have been
successiul. As an example of such binders we
beg leave to mention Miss Sears of Boston and
Miss Lahey of New York. Both have all they
can do from American clients, and both are
successful. Another example is Mr. Kalaba, of
Stikeman & Company, 114 West 32nd Street,
New York City, who has worked himself up
from the ordinary commercial binding to a
point where he does the finest of full levant
work, and he finds his time fully occupied with
work given him by American patrons.
The point that we desare to make is that the
Tariff must not 'be used as a screen for incom-
petence at the expense of legitimate importing
businesses and at the expense of book lovers
and those who desire to purchase artistically
bound books at a reasonable price.
There is no doubt that if the American work-
man produces an equal quality of binding, the
work will come to him. It lies rather with the
man's own initiative and ability, than by the
protection of a tariff duty on old books.
It has been suggested that the difficulty might
be overcome by placing all books printed more
than twenty years on the free list, with a pro-
viso that a duty be imposed upon bindings which
were placed on such books wdthin the twenty
year period.
Such a proposal sounds logical and reason^
able, but if adopted infinite confusion is sure
<to arise, because no man can tell, by looking at
a binding, how long it has been on the book.
For example, we have in our stock a set of
Macaulay's Works, in 13 volumes, print-
ed, according to the date on the title page, in
1849-
Somewhere in the period between the print-
ing of the book in 1849 and the current year,
this set -was rebound for the former owner in
full tree calf by Riviere & Son of London. The
set has been kept in a private library, and pre-
sumably .behind glass doors, and it is as fresh
as the day it was bound
This book was imported last year, and, by
the date on the title page, it was passed Duty
Free, as having been printed and bound over
twenty years. We recently showed this book
to the appraiser in Boston, and asked him, if
it came before him with the proviso as above
in the tariff, at what period he would assume
the binding to have been done.
He frankly told us he could not tell whether
it had been bound five years or twenty-five
years, and as he was working for the United
States government, he would naturally give the
Government the benefit of tihe doubt, and
assess duty on the book, as having been bound
less than twenty years, and it would then be up
to the importer to prove to. the contrary. This
is something it would be utterly impossible to
do. No importer could take an oath as to when
the book was bound.
Thousands of similarly bound books are im-
ported by the book trade of America on the as-
sumption that the book, or sets, will be passed
as an entirety by the date on the title page.
Should this not continue to be the custom, as
it has been under the various previous tariffs,
it would throw the importing of such books
into endless confusion and cause no end of
protest and very materially injure the trade
to a great deal larger extent than the value of
the revenue thereby collected, and to a much
greater extent than the protection thus afforded
would benefit the binders of this country.
It seems to us that the provision covering the
duty, on any and all books, should be so clearly
defined that the importer should not be at the
mercy of a "guess" of the appraiser.
We therefore submit that there should be no
duty on books printed more than twenty years,
even if bound more recently. Such a duty not
only would irreparably injure the importing
business without any 'benefit to the home in-
dustry, but it would be contrary to the highest
interest of the country as being a tax on study
and learning. And we further submit that if it
were attempted to impose a duty on the recent
bindings on old books, there would be endless
administrative confusion and unfairness by rea-
son of uncertainty, without any corresponding
benefit to the binding trade of this country.
Foreign-Language Books
We also hope that "books and pamphlets
printed wholly or chiefly in languages other
than English" will be put back in the Duty
Free part of the Tariff.
Books in foreign languages do much for the
educational side of the American foreign citi-
zen, and as practically no books are printed in
a foreign language in this country, the import-
ing of such books works no hardship on Ameri-
can labor.
All of which is respectfully presented.

Bookish Greetings
THE Christmas card that Gabriel Wells, New
York dealer in rare books, sent to his
friends seems particularly applicable in its senti-
ments to the 1922 situation in the book-trade :
"All men are born different and dependent.
Thru cooperation they become fraternal and
free. Cooperation <is that which transforms the
razv material of animal existence into the fine
product of human life. If competition is the
life of business, cooperation is the business of
life"

In the Field of the Retailer
The Bookshop Atmosphere
ONE of the many explanations that have
been made of the present prosperity and
increased interest in the small bookshop is
contained in an article by Amy Bonner that
appeared in the Times Book Review.
"Now that the famous old coffee houses are
no more, might not one speak of their mantle
as having descended upon the quaint little book-
shop of to-day, where book lover and littera-
teur, scholar and raconteur, author and, aye,
columnist now gather to partake of the de-
lectable feasts of discourse and of many minds?
The genial bookseller is mine host, and, altho
the sanded floor, the buxom daughter flourish-
ing in and out between spotless tables, and,
alas ! the steaming bowj are now lacking, dis-
cussions nevertheless wax bright and scintil-
lating, until midnight often, when the 'kobold'
and the cat are supposed to arise, 'to prowl
among the books,' as a delightful old book plate
has it."
There is a good deal of truth in this sugges-
tion, and, as the bookshop manager becomes
more and more widely acquainted and better
able to serve as a distributing point for ideas
and enthusiasms, so is he or she more and more
likely to have in the bookshop aisles people who
by genius and ability can be appropriately com-
pared to the famous habitues of London's old
coffee house. Certainly there could be no better
place in which to develop this atmosphere of
friendly interchange.

IN a recent number of the Burrows Brothers
Breeze, James Soutar, Manager of the Book
Department, on his page "Observed and Over-
heard," notes the following:
Overheard: During photographing of the
store, Sunday, September twenty-sixth, many
comments on the neatness of the stock. It can
be kept that way without having the firm go
to the expense of taking pictures again. Let's
try.
Overheard: A salesman directing a customer
to another salesperson for a twenty-five cent
map. A little salesmanship often increases
the sale to a ten dollar wall map. Don't shirk
small sales.
Observed: Many customers being offered
nothing but the very latest fiction. Suggest
some not so recent and avoid their getting
into a special sale later. This helps boost
the department profits.
Observed: Boys in the basement opening
boxes with the hammer. Use a nail puller
as many of the cases are resold. Morris, take
heed.
Observed: That "sales-grabbing" is becom-
ing more noticeable . It spoils the morale of
the department and is not appreciated by cus-
tomers. Avoid it.
Observed: That sales rivalry in the book de-
partment is at fever heat. Don't let it inter-
fere with service to the customer.

The vastness of the difference
Was one she could not see.

And 'King Coal' came instead:

To Read Before You Die
THERE is always a place for another list
of best books. Upton Sinclair has, in
"The Book of Life," chosen the thirty-two
books which we should all read before we die.
"Do not let the world cheat you out of your
chance," he says. This is the list:
widespread feeling even among the admirers
of Wells that 'Joan and Peter' is too long
and too didactic. And yet we would just as
soon die for this one as any other novel of
Wells. It is almost our favorite and seems
to us to contain not only an absorbing story,
but the best discussion of education which
was ever printed. The second best which we

Heywood Broun quotes the list
in his column in the New York
World and disagrees with some of its details.
"In Upton Sinclair's list of thirty-two 'must'
books, six volumes of H. G. Wells are included.
According to our way of thinking, six in a
list of thirty-two is by no means too large
a representation for Wells, but we disagree
most heartily with Sinclair's selection. We
would keep onlv one of the six books which
he mentions. His list is largely drawn from
the early days of Wells, when he was given
over to pseudo-scientific novels. These do not
seem to us nearly as important as most of his
later work. 'An Outline of History* belongs
at the top of any recommended list of his
books. In our opinion, the other five ought to
be 'Joan and Peter,' 'The Research Magnifi-
cent,' 'Tono Bungay,' 'The History of Mr.
Polly' and The New Machiavelli.' Perhaps
we would be tempted into extending the list
to seven because it almost breaks our heart

As their building is almost next door to the

The Kent Memorial Library of Suffield,
Mass., has lately come into the possesssion of a
complete file of The Impartial Herald, pub-
lished in Suffield toward the end of the eight-
eenth century. The paper appears to be un-
known to bibliographers and this file is probably
unique.

ed on a half sheet; the 1913 title on a single
leaf tipped in ; the 1914 title printed on a single
leaf tipped in ; and the 1914 title printed on a

Sometime since Albert E. Gallatin wrote an
essay on "Modern Fine Printing in America,"
inspired by the exhibition of fine printing under
the auspices of the American Art Institute in
1920, which has recently been privately printed.
Writing of Bruce Rogers he says :
"No printer has shown as great versatility
and variety in his work as has Mr. Bruce Rog-
ers. Quite different in format are the ninety-
seven volumes designed by Mr. Rogers up to
1916, which are listed in one of the publications
of the Carteret Book Club of Newark. Design-
ing his own types, as many printers did until
the seventeenth century (and cut their punches
as well), drawing or engraving his own initial
letters and headpieces, designing his bindings,
in addition to laying out his books, the volumes
of Mr. Rogers are as distinctive as those print-
ed at the Kelmscott, Doves and other English
presses. What Mr. Rogers has done, however,
is a far greater achievement than that accom-
plished by any other of these presses : for one
thing, and this is an important one, his books
are meant to be read and are not merely objets
d'art. Mr. Rogers' volumes range all the way
from a large folio, with illuminated roundels
inspired by a thirteenth century manuscript, to
a three-volume edition of Montaigne's "Essays,"
in folio, the "History of Oliver and Arthur."
set in black letter, to a diminutive edition of
"Ecclesiastes." Other volumes include an elab-
orate book on Geoffrey Tory, an extremely
beautiful edition of Chaucer's "Parlement of
Foules," printed in black, red and blue, with
gold initials, and an altogether delightful volume
entitled "Franklin and His Press at Passy."
which has been printed for the Grolier Club.
Every one of these books is distinguished for
the technical excellence of its layout; the two
pages are properly considered as being a unit,
the margins are of correct and pleasing propor-
tions, the type is always clear and of the right
size for the page, the composition is faultless,
and the decorations are always suitable and
form an integral part of the whole."
A. W. Pollard of the British Museum some-
time ago declared that Mr. Rogers was the
"most vital force in modern typography" and
wrote about his work quite as appreciatively as
Mr. Gallatin. It is the "versatility," practical
beauty and vital force" of his bookmaking
that is the secret of his wide recognition and
growing popularity among booklovers and col-
lectors. The books printed by him have been
steadily increasing in value for several years.
Based upon real merit, and not a mere fashion,
the collectors of Mr. Rogers' books are sure to
grow in numbers among all who care for beau-
tiful and appropriate typography.

SECRETS OF THE BALKANS
By CHARLES J. VOPICKA
UNITED STATES ENVOY EXTRAORDINARY AND MINISTER PLENIPOTENTIARY
TO ROUMANIA, SERBIA AND BULGARIA, 1913-1920
A RARE CONTRIBUTION
TO THE ANNALS OF THE, WORLD WAR
FOR five years Mr. Vopicka upheld the honor of his country and, as one
after another of the powers were drawn into the maelstrom, he assumed the
responsibilities of their legations and consulates until at one time he was
representing the interests of eight nations, — the United States, Roumania,
Germany, Turkey, England, Russia, Italy and Serbia. How he maintained
the difficulties of his position, and how he worked always for right and justice
is told in these pages.

STEPHEN FRENCH WHITMAN'S NOVEL
SACRIFICE
The word is quickly spreading that Whitman's
"Sacrifice" will be the big adventure novel of
the day. It possesses all the qualities of
popular interest and entertainment that sell a
novel to the limit. Readers (and reviewers!)
of adventure and romance will thrill to the
colorful glamor of its story of a woman who
could sacrifice all to love. They will find the
exquisite style in which it is written not only
unusual in romances of adventure but also
giving it true literary significance.
Ready early in February
"Sacrifice" can be called with no hesitancy a sure fire best seller. Sell it
to the men who want the excitement of adventure, of strong, virile
romance; sell it to the women whose hearts will follow the beautiful,
society heroine in her thrilling pursuit of happiness, her undergoing of
exotic dangers in the hope of finding her love.

STEPHEN
GRAHAM
All too infrequently appears a man who can live and mix intimately with foreign
peoples and then accurately record his impressions in writing. Frederick O'Brien
can do this ; Stephen Graham can. Attracted by the spirit of Russian literature
Graham once gave up his London home to take his chances among the Russian
peasants and students. He has lived in little Russia and Moscow, has tramped
in the Caucasus and the Crimea, in the Ural Mountains, in the Far North of
Russia. He has accompanied the peasant pilgrims from Russia to Jerusalem;
with immigrants from Russia to America he has crossed the Atlantic in the steer-
age, has tramped from New York to Chicago and the farms of the West. Central
Asia, Egypt, the Balkans, Norway, Georgia have seen
this tramper of the world, curious of the peoples, their
habits of mind, their daily habits of life. In the war
he served as private in the 2nd Bt. Scots Guards. All
of his adventurings have been narrated in very read-
able and absorbingly interesting books, among them,
"A Vagabond in the Caucasus," "The Way of Martha
and the Way of Mary," "Private in the Guards."
EUROPE— WHITHER BOUND? is Stephen Graham's new
book. Than him no one could ibe found better able to feel
the pulse of Europe today and tell what conditions abroad
really are. He visited in succession every one of the con-
tinental capitals, and tells in delightful chapters the things
we Americans most wonder about. What frame of mind
is England's, France's, Italy's. Germany's. Greece's and the
Balkans' today? Exactly what are France's intentions? What
is seen in the streets of Vienna? People want to know theafe
things. The Graham book is of surpassing timeliness. In
addition, it is very good reading. Octavo. $2.00 net.

Lord Frederic Hamilton
eLord Frederic Hamilton is "that jolly old aristocrat" who
has been everywhere, met everyone and who knows all the
stories. Inspired to reminiscence by the wealth of his per-
-U sonal experiences he last year wrote "The Vanished Pomps
of Yesterday." It is not often that candor goes so far in
description of the intimate details of a very brilliant and
alluring society. So great was this book's success that Lord
Hamilton turned to his youth, taking the muser's privilege
of jumping from continent to continent. This he called
"The Days Before Yesterday." Now the third volume,
"Here, There and Everywhere," filled with the humor and
frankness which makes his personal experiences and keen
observation a fascinating panorama of affairs the world
over, has taken the public by storm.

sixties, and if it jarred American traditions of the Civil War it was wonderfully
illuminating of the impressions current in England during that struggle.
TAMARISK TOWN
is the story of a man who, 'with a joy that approaches the divine, creates a town
and then finds himself torn between his love for the work of his hands, and his
love for a woman who dislikes the place, and can not understand its meaning for
him. As H. W. Boynton put it "The tale has magic of style and of mood. . .
the glamour of true story-telling."
THE FOUR ROADS
is the story of what war meant to Sussex, one of the strongest, finest pictures
interpreting rural England which the war produced. It epitomized a whole
country's war time atmosphere.
GREEN APPLE HARVEST
Here, said The Literary Review, she has achieved "greater power, a more genuine
maturity than she has ever shown before," noting also, "the uncanny manner in
which Miss Kaye Smith analyzes the masculine mind, the vivid reality of her scenes
about which women as a rule know nothing or little." It is rare," said The
Tribune, "to find a book that brings at once the great and little gifts of beauty."
Her Latest Novel is also her Best
Joanna Godden
The story of a young woman who, inheriting a farm, proceeds to manage it
according to her also inherited ability, regardless of her neighbors' views as to
woman's place and man's superior wisdom — in farming at least. At last, she
has turned her splendid powers of analysis upon a woman and has produced a
story that is far and away her best.

A Book on Russia That 75 Selling
Albert Rhys Williams* "Through the Russian Revolution'* is enjoying
unprecedented sales because it is not "just another Russian book."
Floyd Dell calls it, " The book of the Russian Revolution.** The NewYork
Tribune says, "This is a colorful book in more senses of the word than
one. In the first place, it is illustrated with a number of Soviet posters,
excellently reproduced in color. Then the author's style is only a little
less brilliant than the flaming posters with which he illustrated his work.**

AFTER THE WAR
London - Paris - Rome - Athens - Prague
Vienna - Budapest - Bucharest - Berlin
Sofia - Coblenz - New York - Washington
Few recent books have created the sensation
of Colonel Repington's FIRST WORLD WAR
and his new book will, we believe, be more
widely enjoyed. During the period covered
by this continuation of his diary, Colonel
Repington visited the capitals of the Western
world and talked with leading statesmen and
men of affairs in each country. His picture
of the world today is complete and illuminat-
ing beyond the power of any other man to
paint, and is lightened throughout with the
inexhaustible fund of anecdotes and gossip
that were so great a feature in the popular-
ity of its predecessor. The volume ends with
a first-hand account of the Washington Con-
ference and a description of American scenes
and celebrities, written with all the frankness
and intimacy for which the author is famous.
Colonel Repington will start an extensive and widely advertis-
ed American lecture tour early in February. His new volume
is sure to occasion a deluge of publicity in the press, and this,
combined with the lecture engagements, should easily make it
the most talked of book of the spring.

BEYOND SHANGHAI
By HAROLD SPEAKMAN
This exceedingly charming "look in" upon China is unique because it is "different." The author
made a solemn compact with himself not to attempt to describe, sketch, or otherwise molest the
imperial palaces at Peking, but to see as much as he could of the Chinese people themselves in
their humblest and most intimate surroundings, to live alone with the Chines* and to eat their
food. And this he did, and the fruitage of his unusual experiences is given in this interesting book,
embellished by eight illustrations in color from paintings made on the spot by the author. In Press.

FYODOR DOSTOYEVSKY
By Aimee Dostoyevsky
The definitive biography of the great Russian for which
his ever increasing public has been impatiently waiting.
William Lyon Phelps (who is getting behind the book)
says:
"The daughter of the great Russian novelist, Dostoyevsky, has written
a romantic and highly interesting biography of her father. . . .To those
who have read Dostoyevsky's novels these new and intimate revelations
will be of keen interest, and even if one has never read any of the novels,
this biography is written in such a manner as to hold the attention of the
reader from beginning to end."
And in a two column review in the London Times Lit-
erary Supplement can be found such quotations as the follow-
ing:
"The story of Dostoyevsky's life as told by his daughter in this
volume is one of enthralling interest. . . . The book belongs to literature
and one lays it down with a sense of deep gratitude to the writer, whose
love and sympathy, combined with her admirable gift, have given us so
moving a revelation of the mind and character of a great artist."

TWENTY-THREE years ago Elbert Hubbard
wrote "A Message to Garcia." It was the story of
a man who — without asking what or why; without
alibis or excuses— went ahead and did the 'impossible.
The book was translated into every modern language;
millions of copies have been sold.
Now, out of the hardest selling year in this generation there comes
another "message." It is a book not written by a famous author ; it is written
by th'e fifty-one salesmen who made the best sales — under the hardest condi-
tions— in 1921. In their own words they tell just how they put thinking into
selling and made the orders come through.
No salesman can read this book without having the results show in his
own personal production. Salesmanagers will recognize that something has
happened to the men who have digested its message. It is called

a book on salesmanship — it is a book on selling; it is not an exposition of
theory — it is a thrilling recital of actual experience — told by the men who faced
the problem, and won. It is a book of
Tools, not rules
A living story, in one compact little volume, of the romance of selling by

The Year's Significance
THE year of 1921 has been a year of
book-trade emphasis on distribution and
one of proper caution in the expansion of
the number of titles. England, as usual, leads
the United States in totals and this year has
nearly 10,000 bound volumes compared to a
little over 6,400 new books and new editions in
•this country.
It is always regretted in any summary of
bookselling conditions that there are no facts
by which to record the total number of books
made rather than the total number of titles is-
sued. In many other industries, there are
complete records of output, so that the gen-
eral progress and development can be clearly
charted. In bookselling, however, there is
no agency for gathering such figures and no
present means of getting them together. If
yearly figures could be had from the principal
edition book binders of the country, which are
largely located in the big cities, there could
probably be a clearer understanding of the
total output than thru any other means. With
but slightly fewer titles than a year ago, the
total sales have undoubtedly increased, judging
by the reports from publishers, and if com-
plete statistics could be had from the retailers,
an even better showing would probably be
made, as for the first months of the year re-
tailers were busy cutting down their stock by
turning every possible item into sales. Jobbers
and mail order houses had the same need of
curtailing stock investment.
The Year Round Bookselling Campaign has .
been the most significant development of the
year, as it has crystalized the book-trade
sentiment of placing more emphasis on the
perfecting of the distributing machinery and
on the need of reaching the public with
propaganda of book ownership. Those
who study such statistics as from time
to time appear about distribution in various
other fields are repeatedly struck with the
potential possibilities of the book market if
lull headway could be reached, l-'iyun-s i>riiit-
cd elsewhere in this number point to the fact
that the phonograph manufacturers expect to
sell as many records in 1922 as all the book
publishers combined, including the schoolbook
manufacturers, will sell books, or will sell as
many records as all the books circulated in
our public libraries. But in spite of the shock
of such figures, gain has been made, and, in
a year when many businesses have been suf-
fering curtailment, books have noticeably gone
ahead.
Another significant aspect of the year has
been the increased co-operation between vari-
ous groups interested in the distribution of
books. The work of the American Library
Association has broadened in its scope to in-
clude a much more varied stimulation of read-
ing and library extension. The National Edu-
cation Association has been discussing the
wider place of general reading in the cur-
riculum and the importance of libraries in
every school building, however small. The
government has continued its appropriation for
books in the Navy, and the Army appropria-
toin, tho curtailed, is still going on.
It has been a record year of new book-
stores, and all jobbers report many new ac-
counts. The material published by the Na-
tional Association of Book Publishers on book-
store promotion and management has been
very widely called for and is bringing in a
steady increase of inquiries. These are signifi-
cant indications of the healthiness of the book-
trade.
The year's analysis of the cost of book-
making as printed in the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY
of January i;th has shown that the manufac-
turing costs have not receded enough to give
promise of lower prices for the year except
in the competitive lines where reductions in
paper and in binding have made changes pos-
sible.
Jn the years after the Civil \Var, when similar
and even greater increases in books were
necessary, the reductions that finally came
were the result of the perfecting of new
methods of manufacture, from new paper
machinery and perfected printing presses
rather than in decreases in the elements that
had previously gone into manufacturing costs.
It seems likely that a similar situation will
obtain in the coming years. If the book

work for the United Kingdom.
"How great is the sale of Judge Story's
books can be judged only from the fact that
the copyright now yields, and for years past
has yielded, more than $8,000 per annum. Of
the sale of Mr. Prescott's works little is cer-
tainly known, but it cannot, I understand,
have been less than 160,000 volumes. That of
Mr. Bancroft's History has already risen, cer-
tainly, to 30,000 copies, and I am told it is
considerably more; and yet even that is a sale,
for such a work, entirely unprecedented.
"Of the works of Hawthorne. Longfellow,
Bryant, Willis, Curtis, Sedgwick, and numer-
ous others, the sale is exceedingly great; but,
as not even an approximation to the true
amount can be offered, I must leave it to you
to judge of it by comparison with those of
less popular authors above enumerated. In
several of these cases, beautifully illustrated
editions have been published, of which large
numbers have been sold. Of Mr. Longfellow's
volume there have been no less than ten edi-
tions. These various facts will probably suffice
to satisfy you that this country presents a
market for books of almost every description
unparalleled in the world."
For a population that had but recently passed
the Mississippi, this showing now appears re-
markable.
The Year Gone By
ALL things considered the book business
in 1921 appears to have fared ' better
than almost any other line of merchan-
dising, according to the statisticians and the stu-
dents of the business barometer as analysed in
the monthly surveys. It maintained, its old time
reputation of being the last to feel the pinch
of hard times and the first to recover when
the tide has a favorable turn.
A glance at the records of the year shows
but few business failures in the book-trade
and those wholly of minor importance. Two
of tihe speciality publishing houses were com-
pelled to ask for extensions of credit but both
were quietly financed with satisfactory results
and without needless publicity.
One of the two outstanding features of the
development of trade during the year was the
splendid fundamental work of the National
Association of Book Publishers. Its campaign
for Year-Round Bookselling brought very en-
couraging results. Its work was planned with
such thoroness and wisdom that everyone clown
to the most skeptia-1 approved its methods
and was benefited by the outcome. The other
striking feature due largely to the Associa-
tion's campaign was the unusually large num-
ber of ventures in bookselling. More shops
were opened during the year than were reported
in any two years in the history of the American
book trade and reports show that most of them
are well satisfied with the first results and
encouraged with the prospects. These shops
generally followed the present commendable
trend of selecting distinctive names.
Among the new shops recorded during the
year were Aries Book Shop, Buffalo ; Artemesia
Bookshop, San Diego; Land of Story Books,
New York; Story Book Shop, New York;
Frank Coombs, Bay Shore, N. Y.; Dixie
Terminal Bookshop, Cincinnati; Neighborhood
Bookshop, New York; Miss Kitty's Bookshop,
New York; Alexander Hamilton Bookshop,
Paterson, N. J. ; F. M. Behymer, St. Louis;
M. E. Blatt Department Store, Atlantic City;
Blue Book Room, Seattle ; Book and Art Shop,
South Haven, Midi., Brick Row Book Shop,
Princeton ; Lloyd E. Buchman, Allentown, Pa. ;
Campion Bookshop, Toledo; Louis H. Cou-
lomb, Philadelphia; Douglas Bookshop, De-
troit; Elizabeth Book Company, Elizabeth,
N. J.; H. V. Jackson, San Jose, Calif.; Lo-
cust Street Bookshop, Philadelphia; London
Bookshop, New York; Hector McQuarrie,
!!ew York; Paul Morphy Bookshop, New Or-
leans; City Book Shop, Atlantic City; Ritz-
Carlton Bookshop, Atlantic City; Silberman-
Sayers Book and Art Shop, Chicago; Studio
Bookshop, Chicago ; Studio Book Shop, Mi-
ami, Fla. ; and Miss White's Book Shop, Mt.
Vernon, N. Y.
In the more exciting field of selling — that
of selling by caravan — the house of Appleton
tried it out with an automobile during the sum-
mer on Long Island with its many vacation
colonies, and met with very considerable suc-
cess under the management of E. J. Clode, Jr.
The caravan of the Boys & Girls Bookshop
of Boston again made a summer tour of New
England.
Another noteworthy development in the book-
field during the year was the increased pub-
licity given by a number of daily papers in
the large cities to book reviews and literary
news and gossip, to keep in closer touch with
the greater interest of the public in books
and reading.
The death list of 1921 included among au-
thors of note Frederick Upham Adams, Austin
Dobson. H. M. Hyndman, Dr. Morris Jastrow,
Tr., Mrs. Molesworth, Edgar Saltus, Harriet
Prescott Spofford. Florence Barclav, John Bur-
roughs, E. W. Hornunr. T. !G. • Huneker and
F. C. Phillips.
Among publishers who passed from the
scene were George Mifflin, M. D. Berlitz, and

American Book Production, 1921
THE American book production statistics
for 1921 based on the number of books re-
corded by the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY during
that year show a decrease of but 93 in com-
parison with the figures for 1920, in fact the
smallest loss since 1917 (1920, 172; 1919, 643;
1918, 823; 1917, 385). There were in fact 137
more new books published in 1921 than in 1920,
but new editions decreased by 78 and 352 fewer
pamphlets were recorded.
Books by American authors again lost as well
as books by foreign authors manufactured in
America, but importations have increased by
356. Thirteen classes show gains of which the
most marked are : Science, 161 ; Geography and
Travel, 106; Juveniles, 77, and Fine Arts, 65.
With the exception of Fiction which in 1919
was among the gaining classes (250), the in-
creases are, for the most part, along the same
lines as last year.
In addition to Fiction which shows a drop
of 182, the other heaviest losses are Sociology
and History, each showing a decrease of 137,
and Agriculture, 121.

and was benefited by the outcome. The other
striking feature due largely to the Associa-
tion's campaign was the unusually large num-
ber of ventures in bookselling. More shops
were opened during the year than were reported
in any two years in the history of the American
book trade and reports show that most of them
are well satisfied with the first results and
encouraged with the prospects. These shops
generally followed the present commendable
trend of selecting distinctive names.
Among the new shops recorded during the
year were Aries Book Shop, Buffalo ; Artemesia
Bookshop, San Diego; Land of Story Books,
New York ; Story ' Book Shop, New York ;
Frank Coombs, Bay Shore, N. Y.; Dixie
Terminal Bookshop, Cincinnati; Neighborhood
Bookshop, New York; Miss Kitty's Bookshop,
New York; Alexander Hamilton Bookshop,
Paterson, N. J. ; F. M. Behymer, St. Louis;
M. E. Blatt Department Store, Atlantic City;
Blue Book Room, Seattle ; Book and Art Shop,
South Haven, Mich., Brick Row Book Shop,
Princeton ; Lloyd E. Buchman, Allentown, Pa. ;
Campion Bookshop, Toledo; Louis H. Cou-
lomb, Philadelphia ; Douglas Bookshop, De-
troit; Elizabeth Book Company, Elizabeth,
N. J. ; H. V. Jackson, San Jose, Calif. ; Lo-
cust Street Bookshop, Philadelphia; London
Bookshop, New York; Hector McQuarrie,
I Tew York; Paul Morphy Bookshop, New Or-
leans; City Book Shop, Atlantic City; Ritz-
Carlton Bookshop, Atlantic City; Silberman-
Sayers Book and Art Shop, Chicago; Studio
Bookshop, Chicago; Studio Book Shop, Mi-
ami, Fla. ; and Miss White's Book Shop, Mt.
Vernon, N. Y.
In the more exciting field of selling — that
of selling by caravan — the house of Appleton
tried it out with an automobile during the sum-
mer on Long Island with its many vacation
colonies, and met with very considerable suc-
cess under the management of E. J. Clode, Jr.
The caravan of the Boys & Girls Bookshop
of Boston again made a summer tour of New
England.
Another noteworthy development in the book-
field during the year was the increased pub-
licity given by a number of daily papers in
the large cities to book reviews and literary
news and gossip, to keep in closer touch with
the greater interest of the public in books
and reading.
The death list of 1921 included among au-
thors of note Frederick Upham Adams, Austin
Dobson. H. M. Hyndman, Dr. Morris jastrow,
Tr., Mrs. Molesworth, Edgar Saltus, Harriet
Prescott Spofford. Florence Barclav. John Bur-
roughs, E. W. Hornunr ]". G. • Huneker and
F. C. Phillips.
Among publishers who passed from the
scene were George Mifm'n, M. D. Berlitz, and

American Book Production, 1921
THE American book production statistics
for 1921 based on the number of books re-
corded by the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY during
that year show a decrease of but 93 in com-
parison with the figures for 1920, in fact the
smallest loss since 1917 (1920, 172; 1919, 643;
1918, 823; 1917, 385). There were in fact 137
more new books published in 1921 than in 1920,
but new editions decreased by 78 and 352 fewer
pamphlets were recorded.
Books by American authors again lost as well
as books by foreign authors manufactured in
America, but importations have increased by
356. Thirteen classes show gains of which the
most marked are : Science, 161 ; Geography and
Travel, 106; Juveniles, 77, and Fine Arts, 65.
With the exception of Fiction which in 1919
was among the gaining classes (250), the in-
creases are, for the most part, along the same
lines as last year.
In addition to Fiction which shows a drop
of 182, the other heaviest losses are Sociology
and History, each showing a decrease of 137,
and Agriculture, 121.

The Publishers' Weekly
Classified Analysis of Books Published During
1921 in Great Britain
rriHE Polishers' Circular and Booksellers'
i Record records a total of 11,026 books as
having been published in the United King-
dom during 1921. This is an increase of 22
over the total for 1920.
An examination of the table showing the
number of books published each month shows
that the spring and autumn publishing seasons
were not so marked as formerly except for a
drop during the holiday season, and a slight
rise in the autumn, the figures show a fairly
constant level maintained thruout the year.
This is interesting in view of the efforts that
have been made to keep book-buying active in
every month of the year, by means of such
ideas as the "Buy a book a week" campaign.

International Statistics of Book and Periodical
Production
Condensed from Data Compiled by Le Droit D'Auteur
THE annual statistical study of book pro-
duction published in the December 15
issue of Le Droit d'Auteur is much more
extended this year than usual, covering 20
countries and including new information from
Latin-America, Belgium, Russia, Sweden and
Czecho-Slovakia. In its much abbreviated in-
troductory comment, the article points out
that the characteristics of igig's book produc-
tion, a period of transition wherein because
of the troublous times an enormous number
of unpublished -works was produced, were ap-
parent in 1920 : that a relatively large number
of the works produced the year ebfore were ap-
lished, since with the exception of Denmark,
Spain, the United States and Switzerland every
country showed an increase in 1920 over
1919; but that this prosperity was deceptive,
for editions were smaller on account of exorb-
itant cost of production, that there were in
general fewer scientific and serious works pub-
lished, that the sale of expensive books had
decreased and that the periodical press was
still unstable.
The figures given by Le Droit d'Auteur are
for the most part for 1920. Statistical tables
for the year 1921 for the United States and
Great Britain are printed elsewhere in this
issue. Owing to the extent of the article, com-
ment has been greatly abbreviated and the fig-
ures left to speak for themselves.

The Belgian Author's Association received
a subsidy of 1000 fr. which the following
year was increased to 3000 fr. For the distri-
bution of prizes it received 30,000 fr. and in
1920 it was allowed i.rsoo fr. for the pur-
chase of books for reading rooms.

Up to this time Czecho-Slovakian biblio-
graphical information has been entirely lack-
ing, but since 1920 the Zemedelske Knihku-

years (1916, 172; 1917, 199; 1918, 358; 1919,
450: 1920, 151), lost ground. The greatest
number were from English (1918, 358, 1919,
450; 1920, 151). Those from German fol-
lowed (47, 53, 36). then from French (45,

the books printed in foreign languages which
lost by 68, the most numerous were those in
Spanish which increased from 28 to 36. Books
in English lost about two-tiidrds (90 in 1919;
31, 1920) ; next were books in Portuguese
(26); in French dialects (20), and in Anna-
mese (8).
GERMANY
BOOK PRODUCTION
Book production which began to increase in
1919 after several years of depression again
increased in 1920 reaching the figures 32,345,
which approach the prosperity of the years
before the war. The figures for the past de-
cade are:

books, 751 for music and 60 for engravings.
The statistics in the following classified table
are taken as in the past from the semi-annual
lists of the Borsenblatt of the German book-
sellers. Only three classes show losses : Mili-
tary Science ( — 91), General bibliography
(— ^8), and Miscellaneous ( — 6). The great-
est increase is in Belles-lettres (+1586).

The 32,345 publications include 10,078 new

editions (1918, 4326; 1919, 6432) plus 4552
reviews (1919, 3886).
According to an article by M. Sdegismund in
Papier Zeitung the new books are almost all
published in small editions. This would ex-
plain somewhat why publishers complained of
depression in business while the number of
new books which reached in 1920 the enorm-
ous figure of 19,078, was as great as pre-war
totals. The actual prices were regulated by
the cost of manufacture which increased ex-
orbitantly. Paper sold at from 15 to 20 times
more than before the war. Printing costs
increased ten fold and binding more. The
result was that even a large edition could not
bring about a reduction in price sufficient to
encourage sale among those to whom the work
was not indispensable The increased manu-
fecturing cost was especially fatal for the
scientific bookseller so that universities and
students whose means are slender, found it
difficult to get new books. In Austria the
libraries were obliged to ask outside libraries
to lend them books

1021 new editions, 771 newspapers and 349
translations. The striking feature is the de-
crease in tine number of new books from 2501
(1916). The Niewsblad attributes this to the
increased cost of manufacture, as illustrated
in the following table which is based on the
number of books after those which are made

RUSSIA
The book-trade in Russia has been so dis-
turbed that for two years it has been difficult
to procure Russian books. In Soviet Russia
the deposits of former publishing houses have
long since been exhausted. Publications are
very few and book exportation, reduced to
zero. Russian emigrants have formed centers
in almost every quarter of the globe and have
founded newspapers the greater part of which
have ceased to appear. As the emigrants can
not do without books, publishing houses estab-
lished in these centers have assumed the task
of furnishing classic Russian works, belles-
lettres as well as the practical books, text-
books, and juveniles needed. These publishing
houses are situated at Prague, Stockholm,
Sofia, Paris and Constantinople. The principal
center of Russian book production, however,
is at Berlin where there is a large number of
Russian publishers and booksellers. The sta-
tistics for 1920-21 which follow are from
Russkaja Kniqa, a monthly review published
at Berlin by the house of Heinrich Sachs :

The review also gives the first attempt at
estimating the book production of Bolshevik
Russia and arrives at the naturally incomplete
figure of 369 titles. Whatever the turn of
events in Russia, it is certain that for a long
time hence lovers of Russian literature will be
obliged to seek it outside of Russia.

This enormous total which surpasses all
countries in the world with the exception of
Japan is explained by the fact that not only
books but also pamphlets and leaflets arr in
eluded. Under these conditions a comparison
wiith .the production ol other countries i

Growth of Phonograph Sales
THE growth that has taken place in
the field of phonographs and phonograph
records has been interestingly charted in a re-
port published recently by the National Re-
tail Dry Goods Association, which estimates
that 6,000,000 phonographs have been sold in
the United States, and there are probable sales
of 1,500,000 machines and 100,000,000 records
for 1922.
This would make the output of musical rec-
ords almost on a par with common estimates
that are made as to the total output of books,
including textbooks and subscription sets.
The report points out that two-thirds of the
phonographs are sold on instalment payments,
with perhaps I per cent of failures to complete
payments. The stores that reported on their
expense accounts show that there was an aver-
age cost of selling in these departments of
30.63%. The average margin of gross profit
in these departments is 40 per cent. Of the
stores from whom specific data was collected,
most phonograph departments were on the third
or fourth floor.
Drop in Magazine Advertising
AS the largest users of book paper are the
magazines, the decrease in their size ow-
ing to a falling off in advertising has
been one of the important elements affecting the
paper market.
According to the tables compiled by Printer's
Ink the total January advertising in 61 leading
magazines and weeklies was :
1919 1,092,975 lines
1920 1,806,652 lines
1921 1,541,589 lines
1922 i, 111,600 lines

Titles That Came to the Front
Best Sellers in the Bookstores
THE following titles, arranged in order of
their popularity, have been leading best
sellers during 1921 according to the rec-
ords published in Books of the Month. The
statistics are based on reports of booksellers
in all parts of the country. One significant
point to bear in mind, in connection with any
such list, however, is that the books issued in
the spring or previous fall invariably have an
advantage, since they have been on sale for
a longer period and have had a better oppor-
tunity to break into the Best Seller Class.

Best Short Stories of 1921
TTHE twenty short stories of the year chosen
1 by Edward J. O'Brien for publication in
"The Best Short Stories of 1921" (the seventh
volume in his series) were selected because
they "have rendered life imaginatively in or-
ganic substance and artistic form." What in-
terested Mr. O'Brien especially in making his
survey for the year was the fresh live current
flowing thru the best American work of the
present and the imaginative reality which Amer-
ican writers have brought to it.
In past years the annual anthology has been
dedicated to the American author who in Mr.
O'Brien's opinion made the finest contribution
to the short story field during the period con-
sidered. This year the honor again fell to Sher-
wood Anderson, but since the volume for 1920
is associated with his name, the new offering is
inscribed to A. E. Coppard, a distinguished
English writer who has won the compiler's ad-
miration.
An appended list in the Yearbook of the
American Short Story shows that 80 volumes
of short stories by American authors have been
published in the United States during the past
twelve months. Add to this a total of 24 vol-
umes by English and Irish authors and 17 books
of translation, and the short story output in
this country during 1921 mounts to no incon-
siderable figure.
Out of this number a selected list of the best
books of short stories which the year has pro-
duced has been made by Mr O'Brien as fol-
lows :

The Triumph of the Egg. Sherwood Ander-
son. Huebsch.

Literature Abroad
By Ernest Boyd
The following very interesting summary of the
year's literary output abroad appeared in the New
York Evening Post Literary Review, December 31,
1921.
THE close of the year naturally invites
meditation, melancholy or otherwise, upon
the literary production of the past twelve
months. In the various places where books
are discussed I have noticed lists in which
cheerful scribes have brought together the
volumes which seem, in retrospect, to have best
justified their existence during the year of
grace now ended. What has struck me most
about these lists has been the small place al-
lotted by most of them to American works,
Out of any given dozen ten books at least
are importations. Curiously, my own impres-
sion of the year's foreign literature is that, on
the whole, very little of outstanding merit has
come to my notice and that the real creative
vitality has been on this side of the Atlantic.
Technical competence is still with the Euro-
peans, but they have nothing to say. Over
here, on the other hand, the impulse towards
self-expression and original creation is power-
ful, if rather undisciplined and naive. How-
ever, as I have had many requests for reading
lists of contemporary European literature, I
purpose to recapitulate the books of 1921 which
seem best to answer that need. I am taking
in alphabetical order, the countries with which
this department has been more particularly con-
cerned.

By Way of Comment
These lists, needless to say, do not purport to
give the year's best sellers, and they are ob-
viously not exhaustive. The works mentioned
simply represent some of the more important
publications of the year, with special reference
to those which have been discussed in this col-
umn or elsewhere in The Literary Review. I
have not recalled the inevitable volumes by
German generals proving that the army won
the war but the civilians lost it; nor the annual
contributions of MM. Bourget, Loti, Bordeaux,
and company to the railroad bookstalls of
France ; nor the vast literature inspired by the
belief that the millennium has dawned in Mos-
cow. These bibliographies are primarily con-
cerned with works of pure literature and they
give, I think, a fair idea of what each of the
countries mentioned has produced during the
past twelve months.

A Year's Library Progress
IN making a condensed report on the 1921
activities of the American Library Associa-
tion Carl H. Milam, secretary, points to a net
gain in membership of 843, bringing the total
to 5,307. He estimates that the number of library
workers in the United States and Canada who
are not members of the Association is some-
where between ten and twenty thousand.
The Headquarters at Chicago has provided
an employment service for many of the mem-
bers, has conducted a campaign for recruiting
for librarianship, has maintained extensive cor-
respondence in helping communities erect the
best possible buildings and is in daily touch
with communities desiring to establish libraries.
The Library War Service has even now not
come to complete termination. Recently $1,000
was authorized for books at Coblenz. The
work of the merchant marine was transferred
in August to the American Merchant Marine
Library Association. A continuing connection
with the new American Library in Paris "*^"t
that the librarian will always be nominated by
the A. L. A, and five trustees appointed. Moft
of the war hospital service has now gone to the
government.
The publication department shows 43 new
publications, including the valuable pamphlets
which have done much to interest the public in
wider reading and pamphlets, such as "View-
points in Biography," "Children's Books for
Christmas Presents," "Plays for Children," etc.
Some of these publications are intended pri-
marily for distribution to the public and many
bookstores have availed themselves of this op-
portunity.
Some of these, including posters and ex-
hibits, were made possible by the Books for
Everybody Fund to which publishers, among
others, made contribution.

The Publishers' Weekly
The Year's Activity of the Publishers'
Association
Annual Report of the Executive Secretary, Frederic G. Melcher
THE Executive Committee of six, in whose
hands, guided by the bi-monthly delibera-
tions of the Board of Directors, lie the re-
sponsibility for carrying on the purposes of this
Association, have held continuous weekly
meetings on Tuesdays since the last annual
meeting. The President has visited the office
daily for conference and suggestion. With
the enlargement of the quarters there has
come greater use of the rooms. The confer-
ence room being made available for such
outside groups as the Publishers Ad Club and
The Credit Conference, as well as for meet-
ings of the Religious Publishing group.
Medical Publishers and Educational Pub-
lishers and Year-Round Bookselling Cam-
paigns. The new rooms double the floor
space, provide a conference room that will
hold up to forty people, a smaller committee
room and two offices. The slight increase in
rent is being borne by the Bookselling Cam-
paign, whose staff of three is thus given
quarters.
The publishers of Religious Books came
together last winter to promote a very suc-
cessful campaign for a wider interest in re-
ligious books and have organized again this
winter for even more intensive work. The
Medical publishers met on December i6th to
•consider the value of special group gather-
ings and on January 4th the Educational
publishers came together in the same way.
In October the American Publishers Copy-
right League, with its long record of con-
structive activity, voted to become an in-
tegral part of the Association, and this work
was organized as the Bureau of Copyright
of the National Association of Book Pub-
lishers with a special committee of five in
charge of its work. W. W. Appleton as chair-
man and George Haven Putnam as Secre-
tary. This Bureau is of very special import-
ance to members during the present dis-
cussion on the new Copyright bill and when
the new law is passed and begins to apply
to current business.
Manufacturing Problems
The fundamental problems of book manu-
facture and distribution, which affect all
publishers alike have occupied the larger
part of the time of the Executive Committee
and the office staff of three. Printing emer-
gencies, binding crises, electrotyping and
photo-engraving costs, freight rates, travel-
ing and hotel expense, mail regulations, have
been urgent problems ; the most threatening
tariff issue the American book-trade ever
faced; a straining of good copyright rela-
tions with Canada, an all important project
of revision of the fundamental copyright law
of the United States have fallen to 1921.
The year came in with unfavorable con-
ditions. In spite of the pressing need of
lowered manufacturing costs, there were in-
creases at many points. The December 1920
decision of the New York arbitrators had
just increased printing wages $2.50 to $5.00
per week. The 44 hour week was demanded
for May 1st. In the spring the Association
joined in the effort which brought $4.00 to
$5.00 decreases in one group of unions in
April. The even more pressing need of re-
lief in compositors' wages in the fall was not
however obtained. The 44 hour issue which
came to a head in May ultimately brought
open shops in Binghamton, Boston and
Philadelphia, but only increased costs in New
York. In January last all bindery workers
an New York demanded wage increases cor-
responding to those granted to the printers,
but the Association insisted that no increases
could be absorbed by the book-trade and the
employers stood fast in refusal. On May ist,
after considerable conference with the unions
to obtain better conditions the Employing
Binders broke with the unions and after two
months effort got satisfactory production in
•an open shop. These various crucial situa-
tions demanded continuous consideration
from the Executive Committee.
Photo-Engraving Costs
The first of the year had brought also an
$11.00 increase in the wages of electrotypers
with 44 hour week and a $6.00 increase
among photo-engravers. No relief has yet
been found in these fields, tho better rates in
photo-engraving have been obtained thru the
Meyer-Martin bill, passed in the New York
legislature in May, making it illegal for the
Unions to set the price at which engraved
plates should be sold. This important bill
was backed at Albany by newspapers,
periodicals and book publishers thru their
several associations.
January 28, 1922
Another important action at Albany in
which this Association was interested was
the revision of the Civil Rights Act so as to
prevent publishers being held liable for re-
printing photographs and illustrations that
they had bought in connection with the plates
of some book or set. This relief was largely
due to David S. Beasley of the University
Society.
In the Committee's investigations into
manufacturing costs, the possibilities of
stereotyping has been studied as a substitute
for the increasingly expensive electrotypes
but, so far, not many American pressmen
seem to get the results from these that the
English do.
With wages increasing or at best stationary
in the trades that touch book manufacturing,
the saving relief that has prevented further
rise in retail selling prices, has been the drop
in the cost of materials. Book paper which
had been 4C. to 5c. before the war and had
risen to I3C. to I5c., fell by January below
IDC. and by summer to 7 or 8c. Binding cloth
came down 20 per cent January isth, and had
further reduction, tho still about 80 per cent
higher than a few years ago.
Freight Rate Hearings
The fundamental costs of freight and trans-
portation was early considered tho the
strained conditions of railroad finances made
it difficult to find a line of progress. In
July a hearing was obtained before the freight
classification committee and as a result of
this, carload shipments to the South were put
on the same basis as the rates to other sec-
tions. This change will mean thousands of
dollars a year to the educational publishers
who would be the only ones to ship in car-
load lots. A further application to obtain
better classification for 'Less Than Carload
Lots to all parts of the country was finally re-
fused by the Federal Commission, but it is
felt that this may yet be successfully reopened
by placing the emphasis on educational books.
Such hearings could only have been obtained
by publishers acting as an organization. It
was found that excessive demands for freight
losses set up against railroads by certain dis-
tributors of subscription sets, had created a
strong prejudice in the minds of the Federal
Commission.
Co-operating with several other national
organizations, there has been an effort to get
some reduction in the cost of railroad travel.
The abolition of tax on railroad fares on
January ist has been part of the effort. It is
hoped that provision may soon be made for
a 5000 mile book at 2-J^c. which would be
of great advantage in keeping men in the
field.
During the fall a strong drive was made to
obtain lower hotel rates for the travelers
representing our members. Several good
hotels agreed, but not enough to make rt
feasible to outline a detailed plan. It is be-
lieved, however, that the agitation did some
good and echoes of our effort were seen in
the hotel men's trade papers. Costs of book
packing were investigated and a pamphlet
of recommendations sent to members. With
the incoming of a new Postmaster General
it seemed an opportune time to strike for re-
lief from the P. O. ruling that book prices
could not be printed in book reviews with-
out their becoming advertising and on
May 25, Mr. Hays sent out cancellation of
the aggravating order.
Tariff and Copyright
In two directions the publishing world has
been facing problems such as come to real
'issue but once in many years and both of
these carry over for .final decision in 1922:
tariff and copyright revisions. Wheif the text
of the Fordney Bill was published in July it
was found that the book schedules showed
changes that would rock the established cus-
toms of the book business to their founda-
tions. Publishing would be chiefly affected
by the American Valuation clause which it
has been estimated, would triple the actual
amount of the duty paid on editions im-
ported. Mr. John Macrae, vice president of
the E. P. Dutton & Company was appointed
by the Association to watch publishing inter-
ests and immediate steps were taken to lay
the case of the book publishers before the
Ways and Means Committee, of the House
and before influential senators. When the
new Senate finally began hearings, the Asso-
ciation had its plea in shape. In the mean
time much discussion was started in news-
papers whose columns help to form .public
opinion. Mr. Macrae has been also forcing
attention to the present condition whereby
book tariff is doubled at the custom house
thru a ruling that 1/3 of the English list
price must be the basis for levying all duties.
The printers and binders have appeared at
Washington asking for a 50% duty in place
of the suggested 20%. The Fordney clause*,
taking from the free list, old books, books
in foreign languages, books for the blind,
etc., has been protested against as being a
severe blow to the educational needs of the
country, to the retail book-trade and as
against all American precedent.
New Copyright Bill Ready
After many years of firm opposition the
2O6
The Publishers' Weekly
International Typographical Union gave its
concurrence in July to the plan to revise the
Copyright Law of the United States so as to
omit the manufacturing clause. As soon as
this was assured, consultations toward per-
fecting a proper bill have gone forward. The
result, which is about to be presented to
Congress, is satisfactory to the Authors'
League, represented by Eric Schuler, the Bu-
reau of Copyright of this Association, repre-
sented by Ivlajor Putnam and Stephen H.
Olin; to R. R. Bowker, as independent
authority on copyright and member of this
Association; Theodore Solberg, the Registrar
of Copyright. While this discussion has
been going forward, the American Publishers
Copyright League voted to become connected
with this Association under the name of the
Bureau of Copyright of the N. A. B. P.,
thereby becoming the representative of all
this Associations' Members and of eighteen
other firms not thus connected and paying
special dues. This Bureau has steadily
advocated dropping the manufacturing clause
but has pointed out that a new copyright law
ought to adequately protect American pub-
lishers in the full American rights to such
foreign books as are contracted for. Under
the present law practically anyone except the
American publisher can bring in the rival
foreign edition. The American libraries have
strongly protested and will protest actively
at the Congressional hearings which are to
come, against any phrase in the law that
will curtail their right to import all books
without reference to the American owner
of copyright.
Canadian Copyright
Canadian copyright revisions have offered
as much food for thought. Their printers
pushed thru parliament a bill which would
make Canadian manufacture necessary for
full protection of rights there. Both Cana-
dian and American authors would suffer
from this law as well as all our members.
A phrase in the law holds it up until pro-
claimed by the Premier and it is still wait-
ing and threatening.
The office has found many opportunities
during the year to enter into or to help
supply book discussion to the papers and to
see that the papers had accurate information
on publishing conditions. There have also
been several occasions where the Secretary
could present the subject of book distribu-
tion before various audiences. In March last
your Secretary visited Toronto on the invita-
tion of the Canadian publishers and spoke
on new methods in promoting book sales.
In May before the Booksellers Convention;
in June before the annual convention of the
American Library Association; in July at
Chautauqua ; in the fall in several conven-
tions of the Middle West.
The office files of addresses, book-trade
statistics, copyright data, etc., are becoming
increasingly complete and valuable and in-
quiries of all kinds are sent in ; when infor-
mation is not on hand and falls within the
Association's province the facts are gathered.
Co-operative buying of supplies has been
tested out and proved of a great saving to
those using it. Recently the Executive
Committee decided that the Association
would do well to work in conjunction with
other business men, desiring to see govern-
ment economy, in support of the budget sys-
tem and gave a group subscription of $100,
whereas individual subscription would have
been $25 per firm.
For the Committee on New Outlets the
office has prepared a pamphlet on "Opening
a Book Department," one on "The Successful
Bookshop" and material on "Starting a
Circulating Library." Many letters on book-
selling problems are answered, advice given
and special interviews arranged. A canvass
on the question of which cities need new
bookshops has just been made . It has been
a banner year in the increasing of new book-
shops and most of them have been in touch
with the office in one way or another.
Bookselling Campaigns
While the Executive Committee is largely
occupied with matters of general importance
to all publishers it has also encouraged the
organizing of campaigns for the sale of more
books and the Year-Round Bookselling Cam-
paign seems to have successfully met the
problem of increasing the aggressiveness of
the trade and must take some of the credit
for the good showing the publishing business
has shown in 1921 as compared to so many
industries. This campaign was supported by
nearly all the publishers of the trade books
and carried its own overhead and material
expense. Its success has warranted a much
increased appropriation for 1922.
No wholly complete survey of the year's
activities could be contained in one report
but so many trade problems have come up
which could only be adequately handled by
some joint action that it now seems hard to
imagine how the situations could have been
met by spasmodic individual action. Joint
effort seems economical of time and money
and the constructive way of facing the
present needs and future expansion of a great
industry, a great industry facing its period
of greatest expansion.

Copyright Report for the Fiscal Year 1920-21
By Thorvald Solberg, Register of Copyrights
COPYRIGHT ENTRIES AND FEES
THE registrations for the fiscal year num-
bered 135,280. Of these, 127,338 were
registrations at $i each, including a cer-
tificate, and 5,736 were registrations of photo-
graphs without certificates, at 50 cents each.
There were also 2,206 registrations of re-
newals, at 50 cents each. The fees for these
registrations amounted to a total of $131,309.
COPYRIGHT DEPOSITS
The total number of separate articles de-
posited, in compliance with the copyright law,
which have been registered, stamped, indexed,
and cataloged, during the fiscal year is 235,122.
It is not possible to determine exactly how
completely the works which claim copyright
are deposited; but as title cards are printed
and supplied upon request to other libraries
for all books received bearing United States
notice of copyright, the demand for such cards
for works not received furnishes some indi-
cation of possible percentage of failure to
deposit.
In response to inquiries received during the
year from the Card Division, the Order Di-
vision, and the Reading Room in regard to
631 books supposed to have been copyrighted
but not discovered in the library, it was found
that 35 of these works had been received and
were actually in the Library, 122 books had
been deposited and still in the Copyright Office,
30 works were either not published, did not
claim copyright, or for other valid reasons
could not be deposited, while in the case of 248
works no answers to our letters of inquiry
had been received up to June 30, 1921. Copies
we"e received of 196 works in all in response
to, requests made by the Copyright Office dur-
i&g the period of 12 months for the works
published in recent years.
The total copyright deposits for the year
included :
Printed volumes 19,306
Pamphlets and leaflets 35,636
Newspapers and magazines 68,148
Dramas 3,545
Pieces of music 47,688
Maps 3.322
Phonographs 13,649
Prints 14,520
Motion pictures 9,210
Contributions to periodicals .... 13,125
Works of art and drawings 3.982
Lectures 198
These were all produced in the United States.
From abroad there were received 2,546 books
in foreign languages and 247 books in Eng-'
lish.
During the fiscal year a total of 102,789 ar-
ticles deposited have been transferred to the
Library of Congress. This number included
16,632 books, 50,589 periodicals, 29,125 pieces
of music, 3.355 maps, and 3.088 photographs
and engravings.
pu
Out of the total number of articles de-
posited in the Coypright Office .luring the peri-
od from July i, 1909, to June 30, 1921 (2,-
288,270), there have been transferred to the
Library of Congress 217,555 books 285911
pieces of music, 61,354 maps. 46,351 photo-
graphs and prints, 442,154 newspapers and
magazines— a total of 1,053,325 pieces during 12
years. This transfer includes a total of n 261
volumes for the War Service Library for the
use of soldiers and sailors during the war,
and 13,491 volumes of American poetry and
drama sent to the Library of Brown Uni-
versity.
INDEX OF COPYRIGHT ENTRIES, CATALOG,
BULLETINS AND CIRCULARS
The Copyright Act of 1909 (sec. 56; re-
quires the Register of Copyrights to fully
index all copyright registrations. This index
is made by using card forms carefully pre-
pared and printed. 223,044 cards were' made
during the fiscal year for this purpose. These
cards are used as the printer's copy (properly
edited) for the Catalogue of Copyright En-
tries required by law to be prepared and
printed at periodic intervals. When returned
from the printer after the revision of the
proof about half of these cards are filed in
their proper places in the permanent card in-
dexes. During the year 135,280 cards of this
character were so completed and filed. The
various permanent indexes to the copyright
registrations now contain nearly three and a
half million cards. To save cost of duplica-
tion so far as practical, the title cards for
copyrighted books prepared by the Catalogue
Division of the Library of Congress are used
in preparing printer's copy for the Catalogue
of Copyright Entries, Part i, Group I (Books).
Of the 6,673 t'tles of books entered during the
calendar year 1920, about 6,000 were so pre-
pared.
The remaining titles were made in the Copy-
right Office by the Catalogue and Index Di-
vision, as well as the index cards required for
all other works registered, the cards numbering,
during 1020, nearly 220,000.
During the calendar year 1920. 136 num-
bers of Part i, Group I, of the Catalogue were
published, containing the book titles, with
complete record for all renewals for books,
and complete annual index. 1.089 plus 266
pages; 12 monthly numbers of Part i. Group
2, containing titles of pamphlets, contributions
to newspapers, lectures, dramatic composi-
tions, maps, and motion pictures, and a com-
plete annual index, 1,952 closely printed pages :
4 quarterly numbers of Part 2, containing a
registrations for newspapers and magazine*, with
annual index, 467 pages: 12 monthly numbers
of Part 3, musical compositions, with conjp
list of renewals for music and lists of music
used or licensed to be used for mechanic
reproduction, together with complete annual
208
The Publishers' Weekly
index, 2,589 compactly printed pages; and
4 quarterly numbers of Part 4, containing
•registrations of works of art and photographs
and prints, with annual index, 410 pages.
The two Copyright Office bulletins most in
demand, No. 14, containing the copyright laws,
and No. 15, "Rules and Regulations for the
registration of claims to copyright," were re-
printed during the year. Information Circulars
were printed as follows: No. 58, containing
the President's Copyright Proclamation dated
April 10, 1920 in regard to Great Britain and
the British copyright Order in Council dated
February 9, 1920, both effective on the 2d day
of February, 1920, (6p. 8°) ; and No. 59, con-
taining the President's Copyright Proclamation
of December 9, 1920, in regard to Denmark
(3p. 8°). A continuing demand for copies of
the general Copyright Proclamation of April
9, 1910, necessitated a reprint of Information
Circular No. 40 (2p. 8e).
LEGISLATION
On February 24, 1921, a joint resolution pro-
viding that certain motion-picture films and
talking machine records registered under the
United States copyright laws be sent to the
Director of the National Museum for preser-
vation, was introduced in the Senate by Hon.
James D. Phelan of California. It was re-
ferred to the Senate Committee on Education
and Labor, but there was no further action
taken.
On April 13, 1921, Hon. Duncan U. Fletcher
reintroduced his bill "to protect Government
documents by copyright." The text of this bill
is identical with Sec. I of the bill introduced
on February 28, 1918.
A bill to amend section i of the copyright
law of 1909, was introduced on June 21,
1921, by Hon. Florian Lampert and was re-
ferred to the Committee on Patents. The
amendment consists in the addition of a fur-
ther proviso to the first paragraph of sec. i
(e), in the following words:
The copyright control shall not extend to
public performances for profit of musical com-
positions where such performance is made
from printed or written sheets or reproducing
devices issued under the authority of the
owner of the copyright.
My last year's report (1919-20, p. 130) noted
the passage by the House of Representatives
of the public printing bill, containing the pro-
vision that "no Government publication or any
portion thereof shall be copyrighted," but no
action was taken by the Senate on that bill
before the adjournment of the 66th Congress.
Early in the 67th Congress, a public printing
bill was introduced in the Senate by Hon. Geo.
H. Moses, on which no action has yet been
recorded.
"A bill to consolidate, codify, revise, and
reenact the general and permanent laws of
the United States in force March 4, 1919," was
introduced in the House by Hon. Edward C.
Little on September 20. 1919, as H. R. 9389.
Several prints of the bill were issued to De-
• cember 17, 1920, and reports were printed
March 27, 1920 and January 13, 1921. The bill
passed the House on December 20, 1920, and
was presented to the Senate on December 23,
1920. The bill was reintroduced in the 67th
Congress as H. R. 12, April II, 1921. It was
reported without amendment May 13, 1921 (H.
Rept. 68), passed the House on May 16, and
was presented to the Senate and referred to
the Committee on Revision of the Laws on
June 27, 1921.
INTERNATIONAL COPYRIGHT
Under the authority of the act approved De-
cember 18, 1919, providing for retrospective
copyright protection in the United States for
works published abroad after August I, 1914,
and "before the date of the President's Proc-
lamation of Peace" not heretofore copyrighted
in the United States, a proclamation by the
President was issued on April 10, 1920, in be-
half of Great Britain (see my report 1919-20,
pp. 141-147) and a similar proclamation in be-
half of Denmark was issued on D^:ember 9,
1920 (see pp. 136-139 of this report).
Under .the provisions of the Joint Resolution
of Congress (Public No. 64, approved March
3, 1921) the act of December 18, 1919, became
effective on March 3, 1921. Works published
abroad in the English language after that date
may be deposited in the Copyright Office for
registration within 60 days after first publica-
tion to secure an ad interim copyright in the
United States for four months from the date
of receipt of the deposited copy and registra-
tion as provided by this act.
Under the provisions of the act of March
4, 1909, the benefits of section i (e), securing
copyright control of the mechanical reproduc-
tion of music, were extended to the authors of
Sweden by the President's proclamation of
February 27, 1920 (see pp. 135-136 of this re-
port).
"An Act to amend and consolidate the law
relating to copyright" was passed by the Par-
liament of Canada during May and assented
to on June 4, 1921. When its provisions are
put into effect they will seriously embarrass the
publishers of books and periodicals in the
United States. In response to inquiries con-
cerning this act it is printed* in full in the
addenda to ths report, pp. 141-168.
The enactment of this Canadian statute
makes it imperative that some action be
promptly taken to secure more satisfactory
copyright relations between the United States
and Canada. The fundamental difficulty here-
tofore has been the obligation to print in the
United States books and periodicals and to
manufacture here lithographs and photo-en-
gravings, and the first step clearly indicated is
the elimination by law of this requirement
of American manufacture. The Authors'
League of America is proposing the introduc-
tion of an amendatory act limited to the abro-
gation of all provisions of the Copyright Act
of March 4, 1909, relating to American type-
setting, etc., and to urge its prompt enactment
by Congress. When that has been accom-
plished satisfactory reciprocal copyright pro-
tection between the two countries may be dis-
cussed and arranged for.

GIFTS
Among the gifts received was one of a large
lot of pamphlets, periodicals, and separate works
that included some rare southern imprints
dating before the Civil War, presented by
Mr. Desha Breckinridge, Lexington, Ky.,
Miss Sophonisba Breckinridge, and Mr.
Henry Breckinridge Washington, D. C, with-
the gift made by them of additions to the Breck-
inridge papers which they had previously pre-
sented. From Viscount Bryce came a collection
of pamphlets, periodicals, and newspapers deal-
ing with questions of the day, particularly with
regard to affairs of Slavic nationalities. From
Mr. and Mrs. Hugo W. Hesselbach, Wash-
ington, D. C, came a collection of German
literature that formed the library of Mr. Hes-
selbach's father, the late William Randolph
Hesselbach. From Mr. J. Henry Holcomb,
custodian of the records, headquarters of the
Grand Army of the Republic, Philadelphia,
came, in accordance with the action of the Na-
tional Encampment, sets of the journals of the
National and Departmental Encampments. The
additions made by Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Pen-
nell to the Joseph and Elizabeth Robins Pennell
collection of Whistleriana, presented by them
to the Library in 1917, are noteworthy.
Gifts from publishers included various im-
ported and non-copyrighted books, as well as
certain copyrighted books, of which additional
copies were desired : From the B*ureau of Na-
tional Literature, 20 volumes; M. Edouard.
Champion, 3 volumes ; George H. Doran Com-
pany, 35 volumes; Doubleday, Page & Com-
pany, 34 volumes; E. P. Dutton & Company,
16 volumes; Funk & Wagnalls Company, 13
volumes ; B. W. Huebsch Inc., 3' volumes ; John
Lane Company. 60 volumes ; Longmans. Green
& Company, 89 volumes ; John W. Luce &
Company, i volume; Andrew Melrose, Ltd. 4
volumes; John Hendy Nash, i volume- the
Pioneer Company, i volume; Plon-Nourrit &
Cie, 5 volumes; Frederick A, Stokes Company
4 volumes.
PURCHASES
The total of purchases during the past year
tho not so great as in 1920, is considerably
above the pre-war average. In that year the
Library was in receipt of several collections of
war material, which augmented the total receipt
thru purchase. In addition, as during the
past year, a number of orders that had been
placed abroad were filled, which had remained
unexecuted because of war conditions. Pur-
chases of war material have been and must
continue to be selective. For purchases gen-
erally, with respect to quality, tho not as
to number, obviously one of our chief sources
is the auction roof. During the fiscal year
1920-21, the Library bid on 1,539 items offered
for sale at auction, and obtained 1,046 of them,
or a little iless than 68 per cent of the number.
The year before the Library similarly bid on
1,688 items, and obtained 1,093 of them, or
nearly 65 per cent of the number. The results
thus shown, are encouraging only within limits.
Purchase of a copy of the interesting block
book of Italian origin, the "Opera noua contem-
platiua" of Giovanni Andrea Vavassore, gives
to the Library an interesting specimen of
printing from engraved wooden blocks, and
the first block book, other than in reproduction.
that it has come to possess. Six incunabula
have been added. Exceptional good fortune
enabled us to obtain six rare issues of English
colonial treaties with the American Indians.
Mr. De Puy, in his bibliography of the sub-
ject, gives 50 entries for treaties negotiated
between 1677 and 1768 that were separately
printed. The Library now possesses in the
original issue 21 of the 50.
Numerous titles in English and American
literature of the eighteenth and nineteenth cen-
turies significant for their literary, historical,
or bibliographical interest have been added dur-
ing the year; but a list of them would unduly
swell this report.
In the Librarian's report for 1910 was noted
the deposit in that year, by Mrs. John Boyd
Thacher, of Albany, N. Y., of the collection of
incunabula brought together by her husband, the
late John Boyd Thacher. Mrs. Thacher. again
manifesting the same public spirit that actuated
her husband during his distinguished career,
has now deposited in the Library Mr. Thach-
er's collection on the French Revolution.
DIVISION OF MANUSCRIPTS
At the instance of Dr. Gaillard Hunt, form-
erly Chief of the Division of Manuscripts, bt
now Editor for the Department of State and
in charge of its Libra ry and Archives, and upon
210
The Publishers' Weekly
recommendation of the Secretary of State, the
President of the United States directed the
transfer to the Library of Congress (under the
general authorization of the Act of Congress
of February 25, 1903) of the originals of the
Declaration of Independence and of the Consti-
tution of the United States. The formal trans-
fer was made at the Department of State on
September 30 (1921), when Secretary Hughes
delivered these historic documents to the Li-
brarian of Congress.
The field of history is constantly broadening.
Social, economic, educational, literary and art
movements now claim the attention of the his-
torian, and consequently are not to be neglected
in the gathering of materials for his use. The
development of the Nation can not be dealt with
adequately without reliance on the papers of
the Presidents of the United States. During
the past year there have been noteworthy addi-
tions to the presidential series.
Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan's collection of Wash-
ington letters includes a number not in the Li-
brary's 400 volumes of Washington papers. In
order to make his material available to his-
torical scholars, Mr. Morgan graciously and
generously had his letters photostated for this
Library.
[The Library has also obtained other Wash-
ington papers and correspondence of Adams,
Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Jackson, Van Bur-
en, Tyler, Polk, Fillmore, Buchanan, Lincoln,
Johnson, Grant, Hayes, Garfield and McKinley.]
The Commodore John Rodgers papers fur-
nish materials for the study of the beginning
of the United States Navy.
Materials for Navy history have been added
to appreciatively by the further gift of some
400 papers of Rear Admiral Charles Stillman
Sperry. There are letters from the Second
Peace Conference at The Hague in 1907, and
an unpublished account of the cruise round the
world of the Atlantic Fleet, 1007-9.
The Confederate States Treasury Depart-
ment records of expenditures from its organi-
zation, September 19, 1861, to January 18, 1862;
correspondence of the Treasury, including let-
ters from collectors of customs; also quarter-
masters' correspondence; also letters and tele-
grams to the Secretary of War, C. S. A., are
among the official papers deposited by the
United States Treasury.
These records have been supplemented by
the purchase of the correspondence and papers
of George A. Trenholm, the last Secretary of
the Confederate Treasury. The group includes
information as to cotton shipments for Treas-
ury account and loans negotiated in France and
England.
By the gift of Hon. Henry Breckinridge,
Trustee, formerly Assistant Secretary of War,
the Library comes into possession of the papers
of his father, the late Maj. Gen. Joseph Cabell
Breckinridge, Inspector General of the Army.
1889-1004. The collection is especially rich in
materials relating to the Spanish American War.
This addition to the Breckinridge papers adds
an important group to a collection which begins
with the correspondence of John Breckinridge
(in the second generation from a Scotch Cov-
enanter who escaped to America after the re-
storation of the Stuarts), who was the author
of the Kentucky Resolutions and of the legis-
lation relating to the admission of Louisiana.
Mr. Justice Holmes supplemented his former
gifts by bestowing on the Library seven volumes
of manuscripts of Dr. Holmes's writings, in-
cluding "The Poet at the Breakfast Ta'ble" ;
"Over the Teacups" ; "A Mortal Antipathy"
and "Our Hundred Days" ; a volume of poems ;
the biography of Ralph Waldo Emerson; a
volume of notes on Emerson ; and the biog-
raphy of John Lothrop Motley.
The demands on the material were more di-
versified this year than last. More important
projects and a greater interest in historical! re-
search were made evident by the manner in
which the material was used. Prof. John Bach
McMaster, of the University of Pennsylvania,
spent several months in the division, engaged
on the continuation of his "History of the
People of the United States." Prof. Edward
Channing of Harvard College has been an
occasional visitor in connection with his "His-
tory of the United States." Mr. Jos-
eph Bucklin Bishop drew upon the Roosevelt
papers here for much of the material used in
"Theodore Roosevelt's Letters to his Children,"
and for his "Theodore Roosevelt and His Time
as Shown in His Own Letters." Selections from
the llast-named correspondence are now on ex-
hibition in the Library. Prof. John Spencer
Bassett of Smith College, was occupied for
six months on the Andrew Jackson correspon-
dence, with the result of adding materially to
the Jackson papers, thru gifts of papers lo-
cated by him. This form of cooperation is
beneficial both to the student and to the Library.
Mr. James Truslow Adams worked in the di-
vision for several months on materials used in
his "The Founding of New England." More
than 130 different students registered for longer
or shorter periods, and the daily average num-
ber of persons working was about 10.

The February
Poster
THE program of the
Year-Round Booksell-
ing Campaign places
special emphasis for Feb-
ruary on books concerning
American biography and
history. The poster, which
is going out to the book-
sellers, is one of the most
successful that 'has 'yet been
issued, and dealers are like-
ly to give at honorary place
on their walls long after
the month is over. Black
and white reproduction does
not give the full effect, as
in the color the figures of
father and son are in bright
orange and brown and the
historical figures like a
tapestry of blue and green.
Book Reviewers
and Churches
AX article appears in
the current number of
the Congregationalist,
which shows that one Ohio
minister in that denomina-
tion has found that his
parish is decidedly inter-
ested in current books, and
interested also, to have them
carefully discussed and
the problems they present
thrashed over :
In the hottest part of the
summer, a pastor in a mid-
western church announced
on a Sunday morning that
lor a number of Wednes-
day afternoons at 4.30 he
would review popular nov-
els. With a twinkle in his
eye, he said that, if no one cared to appear
at the appointed hour, he would spend that
time in reading other novels.
"He found the church editors of the local
papers very willing to give free publicity.
What was his delight, on arriving at the par-
ish house the first afternoon, to find no peo-
ple assembled to hear his review of Rose
Macaulay's Totterism.' The next Wednes-
day afternon found a capacity audience. Peo-
ple were standing in the corridors and were
perched in the balconies to hear his revie • of
Sinclair Lewis's 'Main Street.' The attend-
ance was over 220, altho the thermometer
stood at 03 in the shade. Crowds ranering
America's Making
told in **
\
"In these book reviews the pastor told "the
story as simply as possible, and then very
frankly preached as good a sermon as he
could, on some of the problems presented. Ml
the meetings were unsensational in style, the
people being reverent and. attentive."
Talks on Bookshops
A SERIES of short talks on "The Inti-
mate Bookshops of New York" was the
afternoon program of the New York Libran

The Publishers' Weekly
In the Field of the Retailer
A New Combination
THERE have been many suggestions during
the past year that the book business could
find healthy connection with many other
lines of merchandise besides those with which
books are accustomed to appear. Perhaps the
most unusual recent news of such a definite
accomplishment is that coming from Elizabeth
H. West, State Librarian at Austin, Texas,
who reports that in Dallas J. A. Majors Com-
pany of 1710 Commerce Street has an automo-
bile shop and books happily combined. Miss
West's description is as fallows :
"Passing along a business street of Dallas,
Texas, a few days ago, I noticed an automobile
shop with books arranged on shelves on one
side. The combination aroused my curiosity
so that I stepped inside to inquire ho*w it hap-
pened. I was told by the young man in charge
that the shoo was originally a book shop deal-
ing in medical books; the main house being in
New Orleans ; and that automobiles had been
added as a side line.
"I asked him how far the two lines had
helped each other out ; he replied that the auto-
mobile line had apparently had no effect upon
the bookselling end of the business, but that
the books had helped automobile sales, in that
several physicians coming in to buy medical
books had become interested in the automobiles
with several resultant sales.
"Both lines seemed to be flourishing, and
will soon be separated ; for the present, how-
ever, this combination, unique so far as I
know, is continued."
Still Buying a Book a Week
FIVE customers who started last year are
still regularly buying their "book a week" ac-
cording to the report of Will H. Johnson of
W. B. Read & Co., B'loomington, 111.
Mr. Johnson wrote an interesting account for
the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY last May of how he
had put into practice the slogan of "Buy a
Book a Week," and he has been pleased to
find how many who took up the idea have not
needed further urging to make the regular addi-
tions to their libraries.
ATStore Correspondence Card
THE Little Bookstore in East Sixtieth Street,
New York, has an attractive correspondence
card that gives a personal touch to all the no-
tices that go out. This card is 4^4 x ^A and
has a decorative border with the name and
address of the shop in a scroll across the top.
There is a good sized writing space, and it can
be mailed at the one cent postage rate.
This forms a very effective way of notifying
people about books that have come to hand
which should be of special interest to them.
Writing Sentiment for People
THOSE who either sell or use greeting
cards, which have come to be such an im-
portant part of our every-day life, do not often
stop to consider the careful thought that is
given to the subject of getting the right senti-
ment into the right shape. A most interesting
analysis of what people like in sentiments is
given in an article in the January American,
based on an interview with J. P. McEvoy, edi-
tor for the P. F. Volland Company, and well
known to the book-trade for his energy and
imagination of the book as well as the greet-
ing card field.
Mr. McEvoy says that "You would be sur-
prised to know how many people are yearning
for somebody, and they are either too bashful
to say it or they do not know how to write it
so they send 'Yearning-for-you' cards. Other
popular cards are the 'heart-home-and-mother'
and the lonely theme. The best selling Valen-
tine Day card Volland ever had carried the sim-
ple line, 'Aw, go on ! Have a heart!' The best
selling birthday card said 'Cheer up, everybody
'has 'em." As Mr. McEvoy points out, the edi-
tor of a magazine may study the tastes and
ideas of the people and yet never know exactly
what part of what he prints is most in line with
public sentiment. The greeting card manufac-
turer is left in no such uncertainty. He has
a very direct check on the sales, as people read
what they buy and buy what they like to read.
Eighty Years a Bookstore
ADAMS Book Store at 165 North Main St,
Fall River, has been celebrating its eightieth
birthday.
It was founded in 1842 by Robert Adams and
continued by his son, Edward S. Adams, until
he retired in 1917 in favor of Laughlin W. Mc-
Farland who had been long connected with the
store.
To celebrate the anniversary, one of the show
windows of the store was filled with papers and
mementoes of the days when Fall River was
young. Among the papers were receipted bills
covering many years, which showed that in
those days it was very common to have annual
settlements between retailers and manufactur-
ers and also between these same merchants and
their customers. lit was not until the early sev-
enties that bills began to be presented quar-
terly.
Among other papers was an order upon Rob-
ert Adams for schoolbooks for those children
who could not afford to purchase their own.
One of these was signed by Samuel Longfel-
low, brother of the poet, who was Unitarian
minister there and chairman of the school com-
mittee. Edward S. Adams still retains his desk
at the store tho taking no active part in the
business.

Foreign Language Books
THAT there is less study of foreign lan-
guages in the colleges of the country than
previously is indicated by the figures given out
at a recent conference of eighteen leading col-
leges and universities at Chicago. Ten years
ago, about twenty-five per cent of all the stuh
dents were taking foreign languages ; now, only
twenty-one and one-third per cent. This is con-
trary to what would have been expected as the
result of our wider interest in world affairs,
and will mean less textbooks for that field and
less literature in the foreign languages sold
than heretofore. There has been an increase in
the study of the sciences.
Leary's Location Threatened
THE time-honored site of the famous second-
hand bookstore of Leary, Stuart & Co. at
9 South Ninth St. has been threatened by an
ordinance introduced before the Philadelphia
City Council whose object is to provide for the
widening of Ludlow St. The object of this
widening is to provide a delivery approach to
the big new extension for Gimbel Bros, depart-
ment store.
The action will be opposed by Hon. Edwin
S. Stuart, head of this book business and former
governor of Pennsylvania wiho moved the busi-
ness to that location in 1877. Mr. Stuart ex-
plains that if it were a matter of civic im-
provement he would not complain but as it is
merely a business proposition he believes that
the (bookstore should be left on the site where
it is known to thousands thruout the country.
No Canadian Import Marking
BY an order-in-council just passed at Ot-
tawa, the regulation of making necessary
an imprint on all goods shipped into Canada
has been again postponed and it seems unlikely
that it will ever be revived.
This import regulation was originally planned
for October ist and then, because of objections
received from importers, was delayed until Jan-
uary. The act of postponement is effective
"until after the close of the next session of
Parliament" the Parliament coming to session
in March.
International Theatrical Exhibit
THE association, Kunst aan het Volk (Art
1 for the People) will organize in January and
February a theatrical exhibition in the Munici-
pal Museum. A section will be devoted to lit-
erature concerning the modern theater in all
its details. The printed catalog which wilt be
sold at the exhibition will specially mention tl
names of the editors, the owners, and those
who offered books, so that the booklet will be-
come an important acquisition for the literature
of the theater, that means a universal biblio-
graphy of the world's theater literature, a
permanent guide for all those interested in the
movement of the modern theater.
Current Clippings
Boni & Liveright will soon publish the first
novel of Edna St. Vincent Millay.
There is a rumor that Cosmo Hamilton U
making a stage play of A. S. M. Hutchinson's
"If Winter Comes."
Amy Lowell started a brief lecture tour,
January 11. She went first to Pittsburgh, then
to Cleveland, Newark, Trenton, and New York.
She will speak five times in New York City.
A woman was overheard asking in the John
Wanamaker bookshop the other day for "The
Woman With a Mirror." The clerk found
that she meant "The Glass of Fashion."
ANOTHER novel by Knut Hamsun has been
announced for publication by Knopf. It is
"Wanderers," which combines the two original
Norwegian novels "Under the Autumn Stars"
and "A Wanderer Plays With Muted Strings."
Other novels by Hamsun will follow at regular
intervals.
Ax EXPERIMENT unique in the theater will
be launched by the Theatre Guild on Feb. 2.
when it will begin the presentation of Shaw's
newest play, "Back to Methuselah," at the
Garrick Theatre. The length of the play is
such that it will require three evenings for
its presentation, and accordingly it will be
given as a cycle.
"Back to Methuselah" has been available m
book form for a number of months, published
by Brentano's, but the presentation at the
Garrick will be the first performance on any
stage. By its readers it has been generally
regarded as unactable— chiefly because of
length and the impossibility of -condensing
it, even if George Bernard Shaw were to give
his consent.
ANNOUNCEMENT is just made at the University
of Chicago that the contestants for the annual
John Billings Fiske Prize in Poetry are re-

The Publishers' Weekly
New Issue of Mileage Books
THE Senate passed on January 2ist the In-
terchangeable Mileage Book Bill, which di-
rects 'the Interstate Commerce Commission to
authorize railroads to issue mileage books of
from 1,000 to 5,000 miles at "just and reason-
able rates." The National Association of Book
Publishers has been co-operating with other
national groups in pressing for some action of
this kind, in order to make it more economical
to keep men in the field.
It had been argued that a 2l/2 cent mile rate
ought to be obtained, but the Bill leaves the
rate to the Commission. Present mileage aver-
ages about 3.6 cents to a mile. The general im-
pression is that the mileage will be issued at
2^4 or 3 cents a mile, or from $6.00 to $8.50
saving per 1,000 miles.
Navy Books Sold
A GREAT quantity of miscellaneous books,
which had been stored in Brooklyn since
the war, has been bought by Gimbel's New
York Store and was placed on sale January
ipth. This large collection of 40,000 volumes
is not of the books that were put on the ves-
sels by the War Service of the American Li-
brary Association, but is part of a quantity
purchased by the navy itself before the A. L. A.
established its connection with the ships. The
books are -entirely new and include a great
many on travel, biography, several thousand

Washington, D.C.
Jan. 21 st, 1922.
Editor, PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY :
Last August I rented my house at 1825 Q St.,
N. W., to a Dr. J. F. d'Vallier, who claimed
to be a British subject, and was attached to the
British Embassy. The man left Washington
early in January leaving many creditors and
I discover that he has removed and presum-
ably sold about 500 volumes from my library
consisting for the most part of travel, explor-
ation, Northwest, Southwest, American Indians,
military subjects and general books. To date
I have traced only one book, Peary's "Farth-
est North," which was sold in Boston.
I would grealty appreciate the publication of
this letter as it might be the means of enabling
me to trace at least a portion of my property.
There was also a painting of the Crystal Pal-
ace Glacier, Greenland, and several articles of
silver.

Ocean Rates Drop
THE cost of shipping from Europe is now
about 1 20 per cent above the pre-war level,
but has receded considerably from the highest
rates of 1920.
Newly collected data from the Atlantic ports
show that on general cargoes the cost per 100
pounds from the United Kingdom was 17 cents
pre-war, $1.20 January, 1920, and at present
40 cents to 75 cents ; from Hamburg, which was
20 cents before the war and which rose to $1.50
January, 1920, the rate is now 45 cents.

Obituary Notes
JAMES BRYCE
VISCOUNT BRYCE died very suddenly at Sid-
mouth England on January 22.
He was one of the foremost scholars of poli-
tics and government in the world. This repu-
tation he first acquired with the publication of
"The Holy Roman Empire," a dissertation pub-
lished when he was only 24 years old. He was
for six years the Ambassador from Great
Britain to this country and did more for the
betterment of Anglo-American relations than
any of his contemporaries. He was a famous
mountain climber, and had scaled many peaks
hitherto considered impossible. One of these
was Mt. Ararat. He was a skilled linguist,
writing and speaking six languages fluently in
addition to English.
James Bryce was born in Belfast, Ireland,
May 10, 1838. He was educated at the Univer-
sity of Glasgow, and later became a scholar
at Trinity College, Oxford, where he took his
degree in 1862. For fifteen years he practised
as a barrister. More than thirty universities in
all parts of the world have awarded him their
highest honorary degrees.
Lord Bryce's famous works include :
"The Flora of the Island of Arran," 1859;
"The Holy Roman Empire," 1862 ; "Report on
the condition of Education in Lancashire," 1867 ;
"The Trade Marks Registration Act, with In-
troduction and Notes on Trade Mark Law,"
1877; "Transcaucasia and Ararat," 1877; "The
American Commonwealth," 1888; "Impressions
of South Africa," 1897; "Studies in History

Good Government," 1009; "South America:
Observations and Impressions," 1912; "Univer-
sity and Historical Addresses." 1913; "Essays
and Addresses on War," 1918; "Modern De-
mocracies," 1921.
JOHN KENDRICK BANGS.
JOHX KENDRICK BANGS, the author, died at
Atlantic City on January 21. He was taken
511 about two weeks before and two operations
have been necessary. The third was aban-
doned before it was completed because of
the author's weakness and he did not retrain
consciousness at the end. About two weeks
ago it was thought he could not live twenty-
four hours, but his characteristic humor camo
to his aid and to the amazement of his phy-
sicians he rallied.
He was born in Yonkers, May 27, 1862. He
graduated from Columbia in 1883, and there-
after studied law. He was well known in
civic and political circles as well as among
men of letters. In 1918 he went to France
for the Y. M. C. A. and the American Com-
mittee for Devastated France. One of his lec-
tures was interrupted by an air raid. He
is survived by his wife and three sons.
The list of his works includes :
"Roger Camerden," 1886; "Katherine," 1887;
"The Lorgnette," 1887; "Mephistopheles,"
1888; "New Waggings of Old Tales," 1888;
"Tiddley winks Tales." 1890; "The Tiddley-
winks Poetry Book," 1890; "In Camp With

JOHN CHAPMAN ROCKWELL
JOHN CHAPMAN ROCKWELL, who died in Port
Chester, N. Y., on January 4th, was widely
known as a schoolman and a bookman. He
was born in Danbury, Conn., sixty-two years
ago, and his early education was acquired in
the common schools of that section. He en-
tered the teaching profession upon his gradua-
tion from the Potsdam Normal School and.
after teaching for several years in Bronxville.
he assumed charge of the local schools system
of Port Chester. Later he purchased a con-
trolling interest in the Schermerhorn Teach-
ers' Agency. He subsequently retired from
that connection to become district superin-
tendent in Westchester County. At the time
of his death, he was an agent for Hinds, Hay-
den & Eldredge, Inc., of New York. He was
widely acquainted in New York State and
New England and numbered very many warm
personal friends among the schoolmen and
bookmen with whom he came in contact.
New York Booksellers Meet
•"THE New York Booksellers' League held its

vprt on January i8th. The evening's speak-
ers included, in addition to the Hon. David
O'Connell who presided in the absence of Mr.
Wilson. Mr. Shaw Desmond, author of "Gods,"
"Passion." "Democracy," etc., and Mr. John
Farrar, editor of the Bookman. Mr. William

In a recent issue of The Dickensian of
London in commenting upon overseas branches
of the Dickens Fellowship it stated that Toronto
now had a membership of 496, Montreal of
310 and New York 200. A new branch has
lately been formed in Seattle, Wash.
It seemed like old times to hear one rare
book after another knocked down to "G. D. S.
Estate" at the last sale at Anderson's. Harry
Hymes, who has been identified so many years
with the Smith Book Shop, executed the
auction commissions. The famous old book
shop has been doing a lively business from
the very beginning of the season.
The manuscript of a hitherto unknown
novel by Guy de Maupassant entitled "Le
Docteur Heraclius Gloss" has been discovered
by the heirs of the French writer and has
just appeared in La Revue de Paris in two
instalments. This novel was written, it ap-
pears, between 1875 and 1877 when de Mau-
passant was between twenty-five and twenty-
seven years of age.
James F. Drake was among the very first
of dealers to foresee the present popularity
of first editions of modern authors and backed
his judgment by laying in a heavy stock that
he has been able to sell at attractive prices
and at a handsome profit. Mr. Drake, too,
was fore-handed when colored plate books and
the rarities of early English literature were
in most demand. And what particularly
pleases his customers, especially those who
have been with him longest, is that they have
constantly profited from his foresight. Gen-
erally they have been able to get the books
most in demand at the right prices.
John Daggett, writing of Henry E. Hunt-
ington in the Los Angeles Times, says that
"twelve years ago Mr. Huntington did not
possess any more books than the average suc-
cessful business man who has a leaning tow-
ard literature. His achievement of to-day is
the result of the application of those same
qualities which made him a successful busi-
ness man. Organization, concentration and
foresight responding to a conviction impelled
him to grasp am opportunity never before
offered in the world's history — the fact that
by a coincidence a number of the largest
private libraries became available thru sale
within a short period of years. Counting not
the cost, Mr. Huntington's self -voiced convic-
tion was to consolidate those nrivate libraries
which represented the life efforts of notable
connoisseurs. No more startlinsr achievement
can be found in the ami.iN <> finance than
the fulfillment of Mr. Hunting. m'> vision."
The Revue de Mondes of Paris has recentl)
published a lot of letters written during the
early years of the last century by Lai ;.,
and never published before. ' In' the
duction Comte d'Haissonville of the French
Academy declares that Lafayette'* fame and
popularity has greatly increased in France
since General Pershing landed on French soil
and that the editing of these letters has been
a labor of love. The letters now pul>lUhe<i
have been preserved for more than a century
by the heirs of Mme. de Steel. Some of them
date from the time he was a prisoner of the
Prussians in Germany. After his release thru
the efforts of Napoleon he felt that it .
not be well for him to return to Fram
projected another visit to the United >
There are many evidences that the affection
of Lafayette for the land whose independence
he helped to win never wavered. In a Mtr'
to Mme. de Stael, on the eve of war between
the United States and France, he speaks of
the "imminent hostilities between the two re-
publics which, above all others, I wi
see united."

A novel by HERBERT QUICK
YOUNG, stolid, slow, but sure in the way of his Dutch ancestors, a fatherless,
motherless dreamer, Jake is of true pioneer stuff.
As a little lad he had run away from home to escape the cruelties of his
stepfather, and for several years worked as a canal-boat driver along the old Erie
Canal. Then homesick for the sight of his mother, he returned home, only to
find that she and her husband have gone West. He followed on, through the
Canal, the Lakes, overland — to end, heartsick and alone, in the surging westward
waves of pioneers.
Slowly driving across the prairies behind growing teams of cows he finds romance
— and loses it. Taking his place in the activities of a new Iowa county, he meets
adventure. Growing to full manhood he endures trouble and success, poverty
and prosperity, dreams and disillusionment, and through fire and storm come the
love and happiness you will agree he deserves.

EXPLORERS OF THE DAWN
By Mazo de la Roche
Christopher Morley, in his introduction to this novel by a new
American writer, says: "So truly charming, so felicitous in subtle
touches of humor, so tenderly moved with an under-running cur-
rent of wistfulness, that surely will it find its own lovers. . . who
will look through it into the Almost Forgotten Land of Child-
hood." It is the story of three boys — but not a juvenile.

STEPHEN
FRENCH
WHITMAN
a6i
"A born writer !" one exclaims. Well, Stephen French Whitman always lias written.
At school he wrote for and edited the school magazine; at college he performed
like offices for the college humorous paper. Graduating from Princeton,
travelled around the world; and during the three years following his writing for
a newspaper was interspersed with further travels. His feature articles for the
New York Sun, at this time, he himself illustrated. Turning to fiction, his many
short stories appeared in the popular magazines. With "Predestined" he entered
the field of the novel. During these years of writing he has travelled much, and
lived abroad, chiefly in Italy. He is unmarried. He finds great interest in the
motion pictures, not so much for what they are but for the possibilities for develop-
ment of them. His other hobbies are various; listed, his fondnesses include, "fox-
trots, Stravinsky, chocolate ice-cream, blondes, brunettes, swimming, sitting in
motion picture studios, Anatole France, Vanity Fair, white bull terriers, gondolas,
Charles Chaplin, the Fifteenth Century and the Early Roman Empire." In this
much-travelled novelist whose interests are as varied as they are modern, can be
discerned a man who knows strange lands, who feels the
romance and drama of life and who expresses them fiction-
ally in an unusual vein of romantic realism, displaying an
ability to write which stamps him as a master of style.
"SACRIFICE" is Stephen French Whitman's new novel.
Eminently characteristic of him. its story is of a woman
for whom comes sacrifice in scenes of vivid drama, of
compelling love.
Love comes to <her with Teck, an African explorer, whom she
marries, but who disappears, reported dead in the depths of the
jungle. The love of three other men pursues her; and she
sacrifices herself in marriage to a health-stricken genius, who
needs iher inspiration. Then comes word that perhaps Teck stil
lives, and in following the jungle trail, all for the sake of love.
she makes the greatest sacrifice of all in the conquering of her
fears amid exotic dangers. <i net

""THE Garden Without Walls"

most over night it made its author
famous. It became one of the most
widely-discussed novels of years,
and the demand for it increased
steadily until, with the beginning
of the war, new literary material
demanded the attention of author
and public alike.
The tremendous amount of pub-
licity Mr. Dawson has been receiv-
ing during the past two years has
brought about a renewed demand
AUTHOR OF "THE KINGDOM

for this delightful novel, which has
been for some time out of print.
On the jacket of Mr. Dawson's new
book to be published this spring,
and in his extensive magazine and
newspaper advertising, "The Gar-
den Without Walls" and "The
Kingdom Round the Corner" will
be prominently featured.
That is why, like a famous old

A Book of the Hundred Thousand Class
THL GREAT
PRINCE SHAN
By
E. PHILLIPS OPPENHEIM
Author of THE GREAT IMPERSONATION
<J Will the League of Nations and the disarmament agree-
ments remove all threats of war? Or will Oppenheim again
prove to be a true prophet? In "The Great Prince Shan"
he deals with world politics in 1934; and this time, while
Germany, hating England for the Treaty of Versailles, has a
share in the plot, Russia, which refused to join the League,
and Japan and China, both withdrawn from it, are the
principal factors. America stands aloof and watchful. France
remains convinced that militarism is its only safe policy, while
England, practically disarmed, resting comfortably in the
false security of the League of Nations, is the objective.
*I By 1934 civilization will have progressed rapidly, scientific
marvels of today will have become commonplace affairs,
while warfare will have been raised to the point where
instant annihilation of entire cities is possible. Ambition
plays the same havoc with men and with nations, and
romance is never dying. "The Great Prince Shan" makes
a fascinating and absorbing tale that will rank with Oppen-
heim's finest work.

has already won a brilliant position among American
authors. Harper & Brothers will bring out his first
novel this season. Hallet's contacts with life have been
astonishing. After distinguishing himself at a great
university, he shipped as a sailor in a cattle boat, spent
five astonishing months in the Australian Bush, stoked on
a freighter and fought in the war. He was writing all
the while and making permanent devotees of those who
love the work of a born story teller. In America he
sought gold and experience from North to South. Then
he wrote
THE CANYON
OF THE FOOLS
It is full of the picaresque characters whose slang
is of the racy soil in which they grow, and of a humor
imparted to Hallet from life and which he infuses into
these striking people of the story.
It is the dashing tale of a young fellow who n
took up theology, then thought of osteopathy, and finally
decided upon love and hunting for gold near the Mexican
border. But it is the story also of a fascinating type of
American girl— a business girl whose romance lay only
about a half inch under the surface of her business life.
Robert McCarty did not dream that his trip to Cali-
fornia would end in The Canyon of the Fools, a place
near the Mexican border -where endless people wasted
their years looking for the gold they never found,
in Chicago he met May Gowdy who was going to th<
canyon to see what had become of her fiance, Jim
Harper So Robert decided to go too. And what a
mix-up! A Mexican general, his beautiful, temper;

ing love, make a story of excitement told with chuckl

Book Suppression
THE question of restrictions on the pub-
lishing and circulating of books has been
coming forward more strongly than ever
in the last two years and taking many forms,
all of which need full discussion and clarifica-
tion in order that the reading public and the
distributors may be in any measure saved
from the irritation of these conditions.
An article on this subject well worth careful
consideration was published in the Yale Review
of January entitled "Art and Decency" by Pro-
fessor Grant Showerman, professor of classics
in the University of Wisconsin. This discussion
has been taken up and further elaborated by an
interview printed in the New York Herald of
January 15th. Professor Showerman has pro-
posed a helpful line for discussion to take in
directing his comments toward the establish-
ment of "a line of decency in fiction" rather
than to a continuance of the discussion of the
effect of the laws on our statute books. A
court action of the past week will make this
subject of still further interest. John G.
Kidd, of Stewart Kidd Company, has appeared
before a United States Commissioner at Cincin-
nati on a case presented by the Post Office
Inspector, who charged the Stewart Kidfd
Company with sending thru the American
Railway Express to Michigan a copy of the
English translation of "Rabelais." Here is a
clear-cut case in a government court of a book
that is unquestionably one of the great world
classics and whose suppression would be un-
fortunate from any point of view. The case
is to appear before the United States Grand
Jury in April, and the whole book-trade will
be interested to give its support in any fight
that Mr. Kidd makes on this case.
In the case of new publications, the statutes
under which restrictions are brought fall into
a different field. These statutes are state
laws, and the last very prominent case, that of
"Jurgen," was brought in the New York
Courts. Each case in this field must »till be
considered by itself, and it is to be hoped that
some day soon a letter method of getting
judgment will be found than that which brings
them before a magistrate for a decision usually
given by one who cannot fully understand
literature and the public's needs in this matter.
The effort to firing altout tetter corvl
in the case of classics and of present literature
should not cloud the fact that there is now
and always will be some need of restraint in
the general circulation of books and pi* •
So prominent a critic as Heywood Broun ha»
claimed in his column that he believes no re-
strictions are justified and that if he had had
free access as a boy to some of the books that
are unanimously considered lewd, he would
have been none the worse off in coming to
years of maturity. This opinion, however, i*
far from being universal.
The term "booklegging'' has l>cen invented
to describe a good deal of this type of book-
selling, the discontinuance of which might
leave some booksellers the poorer but would
leave the whole atmosphere of bookselling
clear. Public arguments of the unquestionable
right to sell "Rabelais," "The Decameron" and
"Arabian Nights" should be no smoke-screen
to cover a "booklegging" business in titles that
do not even approach what would l)e called "the
line of decency in fiction." The type of book that
a bookseller cannot sell without having a lower
respect for his customer and a lower respect
for himself is the type of book that should Iw
completely eliminated from the commerce of
the bookstore, and its elimination would help
clear the air so that the status of books of
recognized value, whether old or new, could
be more clearly discussed.
The bookseller who tries to fill the just re-
quirements of readers of world literature
would be relieved if the public would clear it*
own mind a little in its aspect toward its book
purchases. The reader who has so little know-
ledge of what "The Decameron" or "Rabelais"
is that he cannot ask for it in a bookstore with-
out whispering, or who would not care to carry
either one into his own home or have it seen
on his bookshelves is giving insult t.
great pieces of writing and belittling himv-lf
in the eyes of everyone who hears him •':
these books. A good, strong, purifying gale
ought to blow thru this whole situation, carry-,
ing out to sea for permanent burial a lot of

"booklegging" merchandise and leaving clear to
the public approach those books, whether old
or new, which embody the product of a mind
of real imagination and literary power.
The Peak of Sales
THE Federal Reserve Bank in the New
York district -has just published an an-
nual summary of its studies of retail
business activity in the district, and one of
the interesting charts is that which shows how
retail sales in department stores vary from
month to month. In some respects this chart
will be a surprise to those who have considered
that from winter on sales were likely to show
a month to month decrease. These reports
cover all departments. Many of these do not
have the peak of the holidays, which is so
prominent in the book business and other lines
strongly associated in the people's minds with
gifts.
Taking the stores as a whole, the lowest
months are August and then July; the highest,
December with 14% of the total; October and
November, practically even at 10.2% and 10.1%.
The strength of the spring season is indicated
by the fact that after March at 8.1% comes
April at 8.4%, May with 8.5% and June with
8.3%. As the average of twelve months must,
of course, be 8 1/3%, there is in this an indica-
tion of the buying strength of the spring sea-
son which is worth while keeping in mind.
The Year Round Bookselling Committee has
been sending out a strong series of suggestions
to booksellers, in which, after February with
its emphasis on America's making there comes
March when there is emphasis on Useful Books,
both in the office and in the home, then Re-
ligious Book Week, then Back-to-Nature
Books, then the graduation and wedding pres-
ent season. With these concrete helps and with
the conviction in everybody's mind that book-
selling is to be made a really year round busi-
ness, there ought to be a strengthening of the
spring business and greater general confidence
in the ability to get sales during that season.
Missouri Book Week
THE libraries of Missouri have selected the
week of February I2th-i8th to put the book
completely into the minds and consciousness of
every town and city in the state. The Missouri
Book Week Committee consists of Charles H.
Compton, Assistant Librarian of St. Louis. R. E.
Lucas of the Missouri Stores Company, Colum-
bia, Mo., and Jean Cameron. The week has
been placed in February to help in the aid of the
drive for more county libraries, some of the
counties reaching a vote on April ist.
The Committee bnings together all of the dif-
ferent types of book interests, as has been done
in such campaigns as Children's Book Week.
Newspapers are to have articles on books, local
committees are urged to arrange for meetings
with effective speakers, bookstores are to have
special displays, and book exhibits are to be
arranged in other stores, if possible. The
schools are now being approached thru their
superintendents, women's clubs are being circu-
larized, and exhibits arranged, such as "Books
for Home Libraries," "Books by Local
Authors," etc.
The State Library Association, which has
started this movement, wishes to get book con-
sciousness into everyone's mind, believing that
the support of the libraries will be increased
by a more general understanding of the im-
portance of the book, and such interest will
prepare the way for wider support of city
libraries, county libraries and home libraries.
Religious Book Week Plans
PLANS are going forward toward an inter-
esting and stimulating Religious Book, Week
The religious book publishers are sending
special announcements to the bookstores and to
church organizations, and letters from the re-
ligious press indicate that there will be many
special book reviewing issues during March and
early April.
At the meeting of religious book publishers
on January 5th, it was decided that the em-
phasis this year should be placed on religious
education in the home ; the enrichment given by
good books to the life of the family. The
poster will carry this idea. Periodicals will
probably feature articles on reading aloud in
the home, on Sabbath reading, on books the
family can enjoy together, or similar subjects.
It has been suggested that interesting articles
could be obtained by getting statements from
ministers and laymen for February and March
magazines, of the "three books of the past year
that influenced me most" or the "three books of
1921 that interested my congregation most." If
a number of such statements could be had it
would undoubtedly be the basis for interesting
comment and quotation in the Religious Book
Week numbers of the magazines. Articles
from clergymen on "How I introduce books
to my people" — (thru mention in sermons,
talks in church schools, church libraries, "shelf-
less" libraries, etc.) — are also suggested.

The Successful Rental Library
By Marion Humble
A CIRCULATING Library or Rental Li-
brary can be, when well-conducted a
desirable department for a book-store or
general store, as has been proved by the expe-
rience of many. It requires very little capital
and will finance its own increase ; the operating
expense is light, and it shows a good profit.
Besides showing a good profit itself, a rental
library has the additional value of bringing
good customers to the store with a regularity
that can be accomplished by no other type of
business. One merchant with a good library
in charge of one salesman found that it brought
into his store on the average of one hundred
people a day, week in and week out, and showed
a net year's profit of over $1000 above a space
charge for rent, salary, miscellaneous expenses
and book purchases.
The general store will thus find it a new
department worth considering and the large
book shop will find that it brings people into
the store who have not learned to buy books,
but whose curiosity about specific books is
aroused by advertisements, or those whose in-
terest in reading is perhaps transient, but who
are willing enough to pay a small rental fee.
Customers of the rental library are constantly
exposed to the lure of other books in the store,
to the atmosphere of the store, to the ingen-
uity of the clerks' sales talk; and experience
has shown that each borrower usually becomes
a buyer. The list of borrowers adds to the
store's mailing list, and personal direct adver-
tising to these borrowers often results in sales.
The alert merchant will not rest content
until he has at least made the borrowers of his
rental books start the habit of book buying.
His ultimate success in this of course depends
on the quality of his service.
Location in the Store
The location of the rental collection is very
important not only in contributing to its own
success, but in attracting its patrons to pur-
chases. It should not be at the entrance to the
store, so that a borrower can slip in and out
without seeing the displays on tables and
shelves. It is most often at the back of the
store, on the mezzanine floor or in a well
lighted basement, so that those who come to
the rental desk must pass by sales tables and
attractive displays. Usually book borrowers
like to look over a number of books before
they choose, and if the collection is at the end
of the store or in an alcove it will not impede
passage back and forth.
Books to be Rented
The selection of titles for this library should
be made with care. At the start it should
include the titles which arc obviously the most
popular, the books just out, most advertised,
most talked about, most asked for in libraries
and stores. First, the newest fiction; and it is
an important feature that these be available as
near the date of publication as possible. Second.
popular fiction of the past year, and earlier
books by authors whose current books are in
the limelight. Good suggestions as to the books
most in demand can be obtained from any job-
ber whose business gives him a very accurate
insight into popular demands, from the local
public library which usually keeps a record of
the books for which there are special request*
and reservations, or from published lists of
"best sellers." In a bookstore the sales records
are of course an indication. Third, non-fiction
in greatest demand. There are a few outstand-
ing titles each year that are much advertised
and talked about as fiction. This field is not as
easy to cultivate as the fiction field but is well
worth while.
The collection might be started with fifty t«
one hundred books, including duplicate copies
of the most popular titles. These can be added
to as demand grows, and as new titles are pub-
lished. Books should also be removed as they
become worn, or stale on the shelves. In busy
stores two or three hundred books or even more
will be needed as a nucleus, and the collection
may run up to one or two thousand. It is a
common experience to find that two desirable
books are needed for every active user. That
is, in a collection of 300 books, 150 would be
out in use, and 150 on the shelves for the next
comer.
Finances
Accounts.
The financial records of rental books should
be kept absolutely separate from the other re-
cords of the store. This collection should be
considered as a department in itself, and must
be made to pay for its own floor space, salaries,
supplies, and show its own profits and losses.
A permanent record of accessions and with-
drawals should be kept either on card* nr in a
record book, to show for each hook : ( I > author.
(2) title, (3) date of addition, fj
copy number, (6) total receipts from rentals.
(7) number of times borrowed. (S) date of
withdrawal, (9) receipt from sale or transfer
to stock, (10) net profit or loss.
The Publishers' Weekly
If this record is kept on cards, the card for
a 'book is withdrawn when the book is with-
drawn from the rental collection, and two files
of cards (i) books in rental collection, (2)
books withdrawn permanently from rental col-
lection, will give a complete record of costs and
receipts of each volume. Whether the records
are kept in an accession book or on cards, they
should be balanced frequently and a balance
sheet kept to show weekly net profits and
losses.
Cash should be totaled daily and entered in
an account book, which should also hold entries
of all expenditures. This should be balanced
weekly.
The book cards will keep the records of
moneys taken in by each book, and number
of times each is borrowed. This latter record
is not a necessity, but affords data for interest-
ing study of the use of the book. These book
cards also provide records necessary to locate
overdue books.
It seems fair to have the rental copies of
books entered at cost price, that is, cost as pur-
chased from publisher or jobber, or as pur-
chased from the book department of the store,
perhaps at the price which would be made to a
public library. When books have outlived their
usefulness in this collection, they can be sold on
bargain counters either in the rental department
or thru the retail department which would
then be allowed a margin of profit for the sales
effort.
What to Charge.
There are two chief methods of charge for
rental books, each used with variations. The
first is a straight rental fee. Perhaps the most
currently used charge is three cents a day, with
a minimum charge of ten or fifteen cents. The
overhead costs hardly make it worth while to
rent a book for less than ten cents. In some
cases the minimum charge is twenty-five cents
a week, with an added charge of two or three
cents per day for each day over the week. This
weekly charge simplifies bookkeeping ; but the
extra over-time charge is a little more confus-
ing to borrowers than the straight charge per
day. Some libraries have a lower fee for re-
prints and all place increased fees on non-fic-
tion of over two dollars list price.
The second method is to charge a member-
ship fee, one or two dollars per year. This
usually takes the form of a deposit. The first
deposit entitles the borrower to one book at a
time; he makes an extra depostit if he wishes an
extra book, and any deposit is returned to him
whenever he wishes, minus outstanding charges.
In one store the membership fee is the purchase
of one new book every six months. With a
subscription fee large enough to practically
cover the cost of a book, say $1.50 each, the
dealer is insured against loss, and the library
finances itself. Some libraries ask for de-
posit only with out-of-town and transient cus-
tomers in order to protect against possible non-
return of books.
Store Expenses.
A certain proportion of the rent of the store
should be carried by the rental library ; as
should also its share of stationery, postage and
publicity. Even tho this is a small item, careful
records of these expenses will be useful in proof
of the profit made by the library independent
of the store.
General Bookkeeping.
Every business, large or small, needs to have
records that will accurately indicate its general
financial status. A Rental Library introduces
an element of depreciation which goes on stead-
ily with each book. Many library owners have
deceived themselves as to their profits by mak-
ing no allowance out of the receipts of each
month for this depreciation.
One simple way of watching accounts from
month to month and of setting a value on the
whole collection for use in annual inventory is
to consider arbitrarily the average value of each
book at some fixed figure say, 80 cents. That
is, if books are worth about $1.40 when they
go in, and 20 cents when they come out, the
average is 80 cents.
The monthly record then reads :

A book wrapper for each rental book, put
on freshly at the time of delivery, not only
protects the lxx>k but also serves as an adver-
tisement of the library. A wrapper of black,
or bright orange or some other brilliant color,
with the store name and address and the words
"Rental Library, Three Cents a Day," is cheap
advertising and goes wherever the borrower
goes, thru the streets, into the theater, into the
home. With no wrapper, the book is apt to get
mixed with public library books or with the
borrower's own books and put on the home
library shelves when it has been read.
No marks are necessary in the book itself,
except an accession or copy number to identify
February 4, 1922
the particular volume. Such a number can
well be placed on the inside front cover, or on
the first fly leaf. Perhaps the latter is the bet-
ter location, as this leaf can be removed if the
book is later placed on sale. This fly leaf, or
a slip pasted on it, can also be used for stamp-
ing the dates books are borrowed. The book
cover flaps are an appropriate place for printing
suggestions to borrowers; and if desired, one
flap can be used for the announcement of sta-
tionery or magazine department.
273
It is a good plan for keeping stock reduced to
have a very small slip pasted inside the from
cover, saying, "This book, with fee now due,
may be purchased for $2.00," or $1.50 or $i.w
or soc, the price being slightly lowered each
month as the book shows wear, or as H >~™TTft
apparent that the demand for that particular
volume is lessening.

Further Discussion on Library Discounts
IN our issue of November ipth, we carried
some comment on book prices and library dis-
counts based on the publication by the Ameri-
can Library Association Committee on Book
Buying of an article entitled "How to Import."
This comment of ours has brought out much
discussion and criticism of our point of view
from the chairman of the A. L. A. Committee.
The reason for further comment is that these
figures have again been used, this time before
the Senate Committee on Finance and the hear-
ing on tariff, and, if they are to be the continu-
ing basis of discussion of (the prices quoted to
American libraries by the American book-trade,
a further consideration of the facts is pertinent.
The original article on "How to Import" was
published by the Committee in order to point
out to librarians that it was advantageous and
simple to order as many books as possible from
England. In emphasizing the advantage, a list
of twenty-five titles of 1920 and 1921 date was
printed with a column of the "London list price"
and "Price to Libraries," "American list price"
and "Price to Libraries." In reference to these
figures the article said: "Here is a bill for
twenty-five new English books recently pur-
chased by a Western Library of fifty thousand
volumes from a well known London dealer. In
parallel columns were the prices asked by the
American handlers of these stocks. Both
columns are bona-fide, the one based on actual
invoice, the other upon quotation given on re-
quest. Both include carriage."
The column entitled American "Price to Li-
braries appeared to be about six to seven per-
cent below the list prices except on one twenty-
four dollar book, which they had priced at four-
teen dollars and thirty-six cents. The PUBLISH-
ERS' WEEKLY felt itself within the bounds of •
fact when it stated in fits article of Novem-
ber ipth : "In giving the figures as to the
cost of these twenty-five titles if bought
in America, the library discounts are figured
at about six to seven per-cent from list
prices. If there is any one of the three librar-
ians who signed the report who buys at that rate
or who believes that it is a current rate of
library discount, the book-trade will indeed be
surprised."
At the Library Council meeting jn Chicago.
Dr. Raney again referred to these figures as
being a reason to suspect the American book-
trade of bad practices, and, as he stated that the
person from whom the figures were obtained
was a member of the Council, the PUBUSHEXS'
WEEKLY wrote to him and asked if the name
of the library could be known. In reply. Dr.
Raney says : "In the list printed in the Library
Journal of November 1st I have as yet failed
to discover any error. The Western librarian
of a fifty thousand volume collection asked that
his name be not disclosed when the text was
sent in. As stated in the article, the price to
the library given immediately after the London
list price is the one actually charged to this
librarian by a London agent after all transpor-
tation charges had been met. As likewise stat-
ed, the American list price and the correspond-
ing price to the library, delivered by the pub-
lishers, was secured by me on direct applica-
tion to the publishers. The discount was the
discount in each case given by the publisher
on such request, and to it was added the trans-
portation charge given by the publisher as
the one which would be added to the price
of the book thus discounted. The article toM
you that, but, as in other instances, you have
insisted upon reading something into the article
which I did not say."
A re-reading of the paragraph quoted above
from the article which accompanied the orig-
inal figures does not seem to justify Dr. Raney
in his emphasis on the fact that he had made
the character of the quotations used perfectly
clear. The English library prices were based
on a bill from a London agent with the books
sent over by post, which is the cheapest way
to buy from England. The American library
prices were on item by item quotations from
a dozen different publishers with separate
postage on each, the most expensive method to
buy In the United States. The same list of
274
The Publishers' Weekly
books priced by an American agent and deliv-
ered prepaid would have been at least ten
dollars less. There seems to be no reason why
higher figures should have been used for the
comparison except in order to make as bad a
case as possible for those of the American
book-trade who supply libraries.
That Dr. Raney himself has "insisted on
reading something into the article" is shown
by his own remarks before the Senate Finance
Committee on December 2ist when he said:
"I recently had occasion to print from a single
invoice, from a certain western library that
presented it to me, a list of 25 titles of Eng-
lish books, with the New York and London
prices put in parallel columns, and found the
latter to be 60 per-cent higher than the for-
mer."
If these book price figures are to be so
continuously used they should be given a fair
revision.

Adventures of a Bookseller
By Ketch
MR. BIGBOSS arrived at the Bookstore not
long after its hour of opening, and, before
going to his desk on the balcony, stopped
and spoke to Mr. Ondeck and Miss Vampet,
who were arranging counter displays.
"Do you know who is to be in town today?"
said he.
"No," replied Ondeck. "Who?"
"I know," said Miss Vampet. "Mr. Celeb-
rity ! Last night's News had a big article about
it"
"Good!" said Mr. Bigboss. "You should
read the papers, Ondeck. Now I want you two
to get out all of his books that we have on hand,
for he has promised to come in and autograph
them. I have been invited to attend the din-
ner to be given in his honor this noon, so I won't
be here to see to the arrangements, but I leave
that to you. Display his titles prominently,
and put a card in the window announcing auto-
graphed copies for sale."
'Mr. Ondeck and Miss Vampet hastened to
follow these instructions and soon all of Mr.
Celebrity's titles, five in number, were prom-
inently placed on a small table near the front
door. A chair was brought, and pen and ink
provided. Shortly after noon, Mr. Bigboss
came in, and enthusiastically detailed the dinner
to Ondeck.
"It was a remarkable gathering!" said he.
/•'< bruary 4, 1922
"Really a brilliant affair. Such witty talk and
clever speeches. Ondeck! I wouldn't have
missed it for worlds 1 Well, I must be getting
on. I have to go over to the hotel ; so, if Mr.
k-brity comes in, take care of him till I re-
turn."
"Righto ! We'll make him feel 'to home'."
Miss Vampet was quite excited over the
event; she had read everything he had ever
written, and admired the man tremendously, so,
when he did come in, she advanced to meet him
with a thrill. B'ut Ondeck was before her, and
already had the great man by the hand, so she
stood quietly by, trying to reconcile the man
before her with the image of him she had
created from the printed page. He was a red
faced, dapper little man, dressed in a style that
invited attention, and had about him an air of
distinction that would mark him in any assem-
bly. He carried a cane under his arm, and
walked with a quick, springy step, that somehow
seemed to contradict the gray hairs that lined
his forehead. The impression gained was con-
tradictory, for he seemed to embody both youth
and age in one.
"Where's Bigbosl!" he exclaimed in a com-
manding tone. "Where's Bigboss ! Is he
here?"
"Sorry, but he just stepped over to the hotel
to—"
"Always out ! Always. Last place on earth
to find a manager is in his store. Tell me," tak-
ing Ondeck firmly by the arm, "What did he
think of the dinner? Did he say anything?
Did he enjoy it? What did he think of it, eh?"
"Oh, he was full of it!" responded Ondeck en-
thusiastically. "Oh very."
For a moment the great man's manner be-
came less assured, then he said:
"I dare say ; I dare say. Well, what is it he
wants me to do here He said he — "
"He said you had very kindly consented to
autograph a few books, so we are all ready for
you. Here's a chair, and pen and ink, and if
you will just — "
"Not here ! Not up here ! Do you think I
-'mi a public performer? Bring the books back
in the corner yonder. The idea! Why didn't
you put me in the window?"
He stamped back to the corner, where he put
a stenographer to flight, and promptly occupied
her chair. Ondeck got some men up from the
shipping room, and soon the books were being
carried back to the corner. Mr. Celebrity
1' >' >ked askance at them.
"Great Caesar!" he cried. "What is Bigboss
thinking of ! I would be all day at it if I signed
all these. Great Caesar!"
"Just as many as you can," said Ondeck, in-
sinuatingly. "Here's pen and ink."
Mr. Celebrity took the pen, dipped it, opened
a hook, and started to sign; then he threw
275
the pen on the desk in great indignation.
Bring me a stub!" he cried. "A stub! ThU
thing is no good !"
There was a frantic rush for a »tub, and soon
he was supplied with several ; so he signed the
book, fumbled around the desk, thai cried:
"A .blotter! Have you no blotters! Come!
Come!"
Another frantic rush, and a dozen blotter*
were handed him. Then he settled to this task.
MR. CKLEBRITY SETTLED TO HIS TASK.
"There!" he said, after he had autographed
about twenty copdes. "That's a day's work!
Tell Bigboss to look me up at the hotel. Good-
bye. Goodbye."
"But Mr. Bigboss wanted you to — "
But Mr. Celebrity paid no heed to the words.
Away he went down the store, his cane
swinging jauntily at his side. Ondeck looked
at Miss Vampet, and both burst out laughing
— Miss Vampet rather ruefully.
"Well, I declare !" said she. "Why, Mr. Ondeck.
he isn't anything like what I thought he would
be ! Well, I declare ! I always thought of him
as a — well, a mild sort of man."
"Mild!" exclaimed Ondeck.
"Oh his poor wife!" said Miss Gentleways,
who came up at this moment. "How does she
stand him!"
"She doesn't," answered Miss Vampet, with
a laugh. "They are divorced."
"No! Well, good for her!" And both Miss
Vampet and Miss (icntleways laughed tri-
umphantly. "Good for her. She was wise!"
"You know, I always liked his work." said
.Miss Vampet. "But I never dreamed he was
like— this. I always thought he was— well a
mild sort of a man."
"So did I! So did I!" exclaimed Mi<s
Gentleways.
"Exactly," said Ondeck. "And now we hare
the eternal disillusion. The trouble with you
ladies is, that you are looking for a sweet little
patootie, who is mild and inoffensive.

cones along, you are 'disillusioned' I"
"It is easy to see why your wife married you."
said Miss Vamprt, with a wink to Miss Gentlc-
ways.
"Quite," agreed Ondeck readily. "But really,
d'ye know I think I'm improving. Only the
other night she was threatening to get a divorce."
"It would be too bad if it had to go
that far," said Miss Vampct. "But let us spare
i»..th •.! „;« ling to make a man of you, Mr.
Ondeck did not seem put out by this thrust.
"Quite right, quite right," said he, easily.
"Man 4s not made by grace. Heroic measures,

Reminiscences of a Book Scout
By Joseph Jewett Barton
V. Auction Adventures
I WAS walking down South Broad Street,
Newark, a few springs ago, when from out
of the traffic came a voice with a query that
roused me from the tired feeling, as a bugle
does a war horse, "Want to buy some books,
today ?" and then an old acquaintance in an
automobile drew along side with a demand thc.t
I jump in and off we went.
Xnturally I wanted to know where we were
going but Bill replied, "What do you care?"
"But I've no overcoat and not much money
with me," I insisted, but he dug up an over-
coat and said I didn't need any money, he had
plenty for both of us.
Bill explained that a friend of his was
going to have an auction about thirty miles
out, a nice little private auction of some
storage goods. "I've seen the stuff," he said,
"and there are about four or five hundred
books. I don't want the books, but there is
a lot of antique furniture that I do want.
Now what are the books worth to you," and I
replied that $5.00 was plenty.
"Well the furniture is worth $30 to me, so
I will bid $30.00 for everything and you bid
$35-OO, and it will be knocked down to you.
Here is the cash," and it so happened.
The sale had been advertised, according to
law, but probably down in the southwest cor-
ner of some obscure local paper where nobody
jwould be expected to see it and the only other
bidder that appeared was a little old woman
who probably dropped in by accident, and who
wanted to buy a table. It was explained to
her that the goods must be sold as a lot, not
singly, but she could buy everything if she
wanted to; but when Bill started the proceed-
ings with his $30.00 bid I expect that
sounded like ^3,000 to the little old woman, and
she fled precipitately. Then I followed with
my bid, and after the final third and last call
I was the temporary possessor of a choice lot
of antique mahogany furniture and some
books.
What private arrangement Bill had with the
auctioneer regarding the division of the spoils
concerns me not at all.
I went thru the books and selected about
twenty of the choicest items and put them
in the car. I never leave choice things around
for somebody else to paw over after they be-
long to me. We then adjourned for lunch and
decided to call it a day's work, and the
results justified.
The best of the lot were Mrs. Shelly's
"Rambles in Germany and Italy," 2 vols. 8vo.
original cloth, uncut, London 1844, first edi-
tion; White's "Natural History and Antiqui-
ties of Selborne," quarto, polished calf, Lon-
don, 1789, first edition, and that was a beautiful
book, crisp as the day it was printed, but it
had been rebound.
Fox's "Book of Martyrs," quarto, calf, il-
lustrated with lithographic plates, published
by Wm, Borrodaile, N. Y., 1828; this was
probably abridged, as it had good readable
type. "A Treatise on Fencing" by J. McArthur,
quarto calf, London 1784, with Frontispiece
and nineteen other engraved plates; "Saducis-
mus Triumphatus by Joseph Glanvil," 8vo.
old calf, London 1726, fourth edition; "The
English Physician: or an Astrologo- Physical
Discourse on the Vulgar Herbs of this Na-
tion," by Nicholas Culpepper, small folio calf,
London 1652; and an old calf bound book on
Theology with an engraved armorial book
plate of Benj. Kissam, done in later Chippen-
dale style by Henry Dawkins about 1/50.
The auctioneer agreed to send the rest of my
purchase into Bill's storage warehouse in the
morning, and I saw that they were loaded
properly; unfortunately he left the wagon,
which had no top, out in the yard and it
rained hard that night so when I received my
books the greater part were ruined ; but I
saved a 16 vol. Burton "Arabian Nights,"
Denver edition, and a few others out of the
lot anyway, and with what I had brought with
me by auto, it wasn't such an awful loss.
Bill was, and is, an auctioneer himself and
owns a big establishment where he holds
weekly sales either of consigned or storage
goods. It is the custom of most places of this
kind to tie up in bundles books good, bad and
indifferent.
If you happen to see a good book? ^n
a bundle, you have to buy all the junk or books
you do not want to get one that you do, so the
one generally costs a pretty fair price.
I decided to change this method, so volun-
teered my services to help tie books previous
to sales. I tied up all the good ones in sev-
eral bundles, which I marked, and then at the
' sale bought those bundles. This scheme
worked finely for a time, until Bill found he
was getting a lot of bundles on his hands that
nobody would make a bid on, and then I lost
my job.
One sale I remember, I tied Hamerton's
"Etching and Etchers," first edition 1868, a
2 vol. half Morocco edition of "Robinson
Crusoe" with Stothard plates; a genealogy of
278
The Publishers' Weekly
the descendants of Thomas Olney ; Qute's "His-
tory of Staten Island," and three more books
together and stuck the bundle on the bottom
of a pile hoping it would not be noticed by
anybody who knew much about books. Sale
day came, Bill got along to the books, and I
cast my eye around to see who was there that
might be dangerous. Nobody there except old
Mr. H, an antique dealer, and I breathed eas-
ier and my hands stopped perspiring.
Bill started my bundle at a dollar, several
women helped it along to three, then old Mr
H. put on his eye glasses, gave a look, and
started bidding with me trailing along; at
$11.00 he stopped and with twenty-five cents
more the bundle was mine. As I was going
out of the door Mr. H. called after me.
"What was it you wanted in that bundle?"
but I Yankeed, by asking him the same ques-
tion, and he said an old friend had asked him to
pick him up a nice copy of "Robinson Crusoe,"
but he didn't know they were worth that much
money. I sold the "Etching and Etchers" for
$50.00, traded the Crusoe to Mr. H. for some
books he had that I wanted, and the others
are lying around somewhere yet.
I should not leave Bill and his place with-
out telling of a character who buys under the
auction initials of B. P. He is a little, near-
sighted Jewish person who when he started
on his awful career twenty-seven years ago.
Bill says, had a good store, two other build-
ings, money in the bank and was a leading
figure in his synagogue.
His store stock was secondhand furniture
and miscellaneous goods. One time, soon after
he started to buy at Bill's, he bought a locked
trunk and when he got it home and pried it
open he had all kinds of "sillik" dresses, ex-
pensive lingerie, a few articles of fairly good
jewelry, toilet articles, including a solid silver-
backed hand mirror, and other desirable articles
too numerous to mention, which cost him only
a few dollars.
Since then B. P. has been a fiend on every-
thing locked or nailed up. No price was too
high; he was the final bidder on all pigs in a
poke, and he beat me out of several good
boxes of books
* * * *
The money in the bank, the two houses, and
the store, have all gone.
GEORGE PALMER PUTNAM has just returned
from a two months' trip to England and the
Continent. Chief among the manuscripts
brought back, he reports, is that of "Painted
Windows" by a Gentleman with a Duster, au-
thor of "The Mirrors of Downing Street."
This new book deals primarily with the out-
standing figures of England's religious life to-
day.
Current Clippings
MAKCOT ASQUITH wife of the former British
Prime Minister, is now in America on a lecture
tour. Coincident with this event, the George H.
Doran Co. has issued a popular one volume
edition, bound in cloth and stamped in gold, of
"Margot Asquith: An Autobiography." This
was formerly issued in a more expensive two-
volume edition.
WHAT is actually the first personal word
ever received by her publishers concerning
Ethel M. Dell has just reached, them in a
cablegram. Miss Dell's engagement to Col.
George Savage, Jr.. has just been announced.
Miss Dell is living in Goiilford not iar from
London and Col. Savage lives in the same
town. Miss Dell has never been interviewed
and has never allowed her photograph to be
published. In fact, she so dreads publicity
that she has enclosed her house and grounds
with a high brick wall.
BEN HECHT, of Chicago, successful news-
paper man and novelist, is now apparently about
to become a successful playwright too. Leo
Dietrichstein telegraphed the author of "Erik
Dorn" to come on from Chicago last week. He
came. He saw Mr. Dietrichstein, and he immedi-
ately signed a contract for a new play which Mr.
Dietrichstein will put on with himself in the
leading part, in September. The opening is sched-
uled for Chicago. The title of the play is "The
Man Who Poses." With a fat advance pay-
ment: on the play in his pocket, Ben Hecht is
now busy on his new novel "Gargoyles," which
the Putnams expect to publish in the autumn.
AN Encyclopedia of Christianity for English
speaking scholars has been undertaken, in
America, according to the Outlook. It is to
be published by Robert Appleton, the publisher
who carried thru successfully the publication
of the Catholic encyclopedia. It is expected
that the work will take six years and will fill
twelve large volumes when it is completed. It
will be fully illustrated. It is intended that this
encyclopedia shall cover the entire field of his-
torical and doctrinal Christianity, including not
only its theological and ecclesiastical aspects,
but its physical and social aspects as well.
DOUBLE-PAGE SPREADS, in colors, for the
Desk Standard Dictionary, published by Funk
and Wagnalls have been appearing in the
Literary Digest and appeared in the Saturday
Evening Post of February 4. An interesting
feature of this publicity is that it contains
the names and business locations of all book-
sellers in the United States who handle the
dictionary.

In the Field of the Retailer
A Merchandise Manual
JUST what constructive work can be done in
bringing the whole field of retailing into
oetter condition is shown by the examination
of a merchandise manual for shoe departments,
\vritten by Elizabeth Dyer and published by
the Research Bureau for Retail Training, Car-
negie Institute of Technology, Pittsburgh. In
a book of 130 pages there is a complete intro-
duction to the retail shoe business for the per-
son becoming a salesman in that field. One
learns about the parts of the shoe, details
about material, so much needed by every one
who intelligently handles customers, details as
to the making so that the inner problems as well
as outward appearance can be understood, a
chapter on style, one on fitting the shoes, on
justifying prices, selling suggestions, answering
customers' questions, and very important mate-
rial cm the anatomy of the foot and the prob-
lems involved in foot health. If all the wisdom
and detailed information in this brief volume
could be fully in the mind of every shoe sales-
man in the country, the number of people who
would suffer uncomfortable hours would be
greatly decreased. The possible effect on the
happiness of the human race seems incredible.
The amount of information that needs to be at
the tongue's end of a salesman in a bookshop
is infinitely greater than is needed in the boot

need should be carefully encouraged, and the
fact that other trades are realizing the needs of
better retailing gives added stimulus to the peo-
ple in each separate field.
Boy Scouts and Bookcases
DURING National Boy Scout Week, Febru-
ary sth- nth, the boy's interest is be-
ing caught by the Boys' and Girls' Own
Bookshop of J. K. Gill Company, Port-
land, Ore., by offering a dozen prizes
for the best bookcase and best libraries
for a bookcase, Mabel Arundel Harris
manager of this special department, has
now a corner known as the Boy Scout
Room. This emphasis on the boy's interest has
brought many new friends, and these boys are
now preparing to submit bookcases in compe-
tition, manufactured from the design of the
Thomas Bailey Aldrich bookcase, which was
popularized during Children's Book Week. Ex-
hibits will be accepted from individuals and. also
from Scout troops. If a troop product, it must
be retained for a troop library and hung in the
regular meeting place of the troop. There are
three prizes for the best built bookcase entered
by individuals, three for the best built bookcases
entered by a troop, three prizes for the best
library contained in a bookcase entered by an
individual, and three for the best library entered
OLIVE KEATING WHO IMPERSONATED "ORPHANT
ANNIE" AT THE STORE OF MACAULEY BROS.,
DETROIT, DURING THE HOLIDAY SEAMiN
by a troop. These prizes run from five dollars
down to one dollar, and books to that amount
can be selected. The motto of the Book Room
is "Not Just a Book, But the Right Book."
The Doll "Cytherea"
A VERY appropriate suggestion for window
display in connection with Hergesheimer's
new novel is embodied in the prize which the
publishers have recently announced for the best
photograph of a character doll exhibited in
connection with the book. As those who have
read the story know, this doll is at the very
center of the theme of the story, and it will be a
very interesting problem for many people to
plan the dressing of a doll which will represent
"Cytherea." The prizes are to be for fifty,
twenty-five and fifteen dollars, and the photo-
graphs, snap-shots will do, must be filed with A.
A. Knopf, Inc., before Nfarch 2Oth.

The Publishers' Weekly
Women and Bookselling
A Monthly Department of News and Theory — Edited by Virginia Smith Cowper
ARTHUR SOMERS
ROCHE
The Women's National
Book Association met at
the Children's Book Shop
on the evening of Janu-
ary iQth, the speakers of
the evening being Arthur
Somers Roche, the author
of "The Day of Faith,"
"Eyes of the Blind,"
" R a n s o m," "Uneasy
Street'' and other best
sellers, and Mrs. Ida
Bensey Judd, profession-
al reader. Mrs. Judd read
"T h e Preface for a
French History of Joan of Arc" by Mark Twain.
This was charmingly and sympathetically ren-
dered, and it was a privilege to become ac-
quainted, in such a pleasant way, with a work
which has been so Itittle known for many years.
It appeared in a collection of Twain's short
stories, and. Mrs. Ralph Wilson, of McDevitt-
Wilson Co., recognized the great beauty of it
and suggested to Harper's that they publish it
separately, with the result that the story as told
by Mrs. Judd, appears in beautiful dress, un-
der the title of "St. Joan of Arc."
Mr. Roche more than fulfilled his require-
ments as a speaker, for being author's year in
the Association, all authors are asked to tell
of their early work, and talk about their ca-
reers. Mr. Roche's story of his start as a
writer, and of the years which led to ultimate
success, was just the thing which made the
booksellers present glad of the opportunity of
knowing him, and hearing what his ideas were
about present-day conditions. Much of his talk
had to do with the case of censorship and
"pseudo-reformers," and he asked the Women's
National Book Association as a body, to do
what it cquld in the cause of a less rigid regime
of censorship and to help to fight the issues as
they are presented by the censors. Thru the
efforts of Mrs. Sherwood, Chairman of the En-
tertainment Committee for this year, and the
kindness of Harper & Brothers, every member
present received a copy of "Lost Valley" by
Katherine Fullerton Gerould. Each book bore
the inscription "With the compliments of the
author and publisher, distributed thru the
Women's National Book Association."
It is planned to give a book at each meeting,
and it will usually 'be, as was the one presented
at this meeting, the book of the week.
The National Association of Book Publish-
ers also sent copies of "The Successful Book-
shop ; a Manual of Practical Information" by
Frederic G. Melaher. This booklet gives much
valuable information as to how to start a shop,
amount of capital needed, proper location, se-
lection of stock, display and promotion and
other important "tips."
Rubie Ley, formerly manager of the Liberty
Tower Bookshop, New York, sadls for Europe
on the S. S. Providence on February 25th, for an
extended tour. While overseas Miss Ley will
attend the International Book Fair, at Florence,
Italy, wihidh is to be held under the auspices
of the Associazione Editortiale Libraria Ita-
liana, with the cooperation of the Fondazione
Leonardo per la Cultura Italiana. She will also
spend some rime in England and France, where
she will study trade conditions, and do some
buying for her bookshop, which she plans to
open in New York upon her return, the latter
part of the next summer. While in Paris, Miss
Ley plans to call upon another American girl,
Sylvia Beach, whose shop "Shakespeare & Co.,"
8 rue Dupuytren. is filling a long felt want in
the Latin Quarter.
William Van Renssalaer Whitall, of Pelham,
New York, is the founder of a new prize in
the world of poetry. He has offered $250 in
casih annually to the Poetry Society of South
Carolina. This is to be an open competition
to "any native-born citizen of the United States
or any British subject, speaking English as his
or her native language." All poems must be in
the hands of the Secretary of the Poetry So-
ciety of South Carolina not later than the first
of January of each year. "Poems submitted
must not be less than fourteen lines in length
and special consideration shall be given to sus-
tained poems of considerable length ; all poems
to be origlinal and unpublished at the time of
submission." Mr. Whitall has appointed Amy
Lowell judge for 1922, and has named this
prize "The Blindman Prize" from the title of
the poem, "The Blindman," by Hervey Allen,
which appears in "Wampum and Old Gold" re-
cently published by the Yale University Press.
Mr. Whitall urges the Society to induce emi-
nent American and English poets to enter this
competition. There are a few other conditions,
not mentioned here, which may be had upon ap-
plication to DuBose Hey ward, secretary, the
Poetry Society of South Carolina, Charleston,
S. C.
Rosalie Nixon, of the Paul Morphy Book-
shop, New Orleans, has been in New York this
last week on a spring buying tour. She was
most optimistic about her new venture, and
reports that business has been especially good
since she opened her shop last fall,
February 4, 1922

Obituary Notes
SIR ERNEST SHACKLETON.
SIR ERNEST SHACKLETON, the British ex-
plorer, died January 5, on board, the steamship
Quest, on which he was making another ex-
pedition into the antarctic regions. He died,
after but a few hours' illness, of angina pec-
toris.
He was born February 15, 1874, at Kilkee,
in the south of Ireland. He was educated at
Duhvtich College. After he finished his course
there, he went to sea in the merchant service.
He was later a lieutenant in the Royal Naval
Reserve. In 1901 he was third lieutenant of
the National Antarctic Expedition under the late
Captain Scott. He first attracted wide atten-
tion when he became Commander of the Brit-
ish Antarctic Expedition of 1907-1909, which
reached within ninety-seven miles of the South
Pole. The story of any of his great expedi-
tions is thrilling reading, and the contribution
of any of them to science was immense.
His books include : "The Heart of the Ant-
arctic," 1909; "The Diary of a Troop Ship,"
"South," 1920.

WILLIS J. ABBOTT has just been elected by
the directors of the First Church of Christ
Scientist, editor of the Christian Science Moni-
tor, the election being confirmed by the newly
appointed trustees of the Christian Science
Publishing Society. Albert Field Gilmore at

ANOTHER PROMINENT PAPER has turned its at-
tention to more complete comment on books,
this time the Cleveland Plain Dealer, which will
have a well-rounded book section on Saturdays.
The Plain Dealer is well known throughout the
country as well as in Northern Ohio and has
always had book reviews and book news. The
present step, however, shows the intention of
making a more fully rounded department com-
parable to those that have developed in the four
larger cities. The preliminary announcement
sent out indicates that the department will en-
deavor to weld the interest of publishers and
booksellers together, and will have a clear con-
ception of the place of the book in the home
life of the community.

Charles Dickens's "Pickwick Papers" never
loses its attraction for illustrators. The latest
artist of note to devote his talents to the
great novel is Charles E. Brock who has
made twelve drawings which have been pub-
lished in a limited edition de luxe and an or-
dinary edition by Arthur W. Waters, of
Birmingham, England.
The letters and business records of the late
Henry Villard, covering his career as a rail-
road and steamship executive from 1874 until
his retirement in 1895, have been presented to
the Widener Memorial Library of Harvard
University. The papers are said to present a
remarkable record of railroad development in
the Pacific Northwest.
Another discovery relating to Conrad's
"Chance" is reported by The Bookman's Jour-
nal. It has been generally understood that
the American edition was dated 1914; it now
appears that Doubleday, Page & Co., issued
a small number — supposed to be ten or twelve
— dated 1913, and it now seems probable that
these copies were issued prior to the genuine
first issue of the English edition.
A copy of the famous Dante manuscript,

on University Heights. It is the gift of Luigi
Carnavole of Chicago and is one of seventy
copies which will be presented to the President
for the White House Library, the Con-
gressional Library, and universities thruout
the country. The gift is in commemoration
of the 6ooth anniversary of the death of
Dante.
Illuminated and other manuscripts together
with printed books, the property of Capt.
John Harrison-Broadley, with additions, will
be sold at Sotheby's in London, February 13
and 14. These consignments comprise many
rarities, among them a Flemish Horae; an
English I5th century Horae; an Italian isth
century Pontifical ; early printed books ; tracts
and plays of the i7th and i8th centuries; books
with colored plates; Higden's "Polycronicon."
printed by Caxton in 1482; the Second and
Fourth Folios of Shakespeare; a" signed auto-
graph draft of Richard Crawshaw's first vol-
ume of poetry ; a contemporary account of the
Scotts Guards of 1688; and a remarkable
Byzantine Psalter of the nth century.
Three important book sales in this country
— that of the Corder collection at the Ameri-
can Art Galleries January 26 and 27, the
Dickens collection February i and 2 and the
Thackeray rarities February 6 and 7, both
at the Anderson Galleries — and several smaller
sales have come in a very short period. In
London a very important part of the Christie
Miller Library will be sold on February 6 to
10 inclusive. Not since March. 1920, when the
Forman, Wallace and Yates Thompson sales
were very closely bunched have there been so
many rare books sold in so short a time. Some
collectors looked forward to a drop in prices
and even some dealers felt dubious but it
now appears as if these sales from start to
finish will have been well attended and good
prices maintained.
An appreciation of Amy Lowell, the Boston
poet, appears in The Landmark and makes
strong claims for her as a collector. Her li-
brary is said to be one of the finest in America
and her collection of manuscripts of Keats
surpassed only by that of the Earl of Crewe.
It was her passion for Keats, leading to the
study of his manuscripts, that fixed her pur-
pose to become a poet. The format and type
of her first book "A Dome of Many-Colored
Glass," published in 1912. followed that of
Keats's "Poems;" and, it is said, that it was
due to her exertions more than of any other
person that it was found possible to purchase
the Keats House in Hampstead for preserva-
tion as a memorial.

The Publishers' Weekly
Some years ago THE PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY
issued a classified list of private book collec-
tors which was at once much appreciated by
the book-trade. Two years later a second edi-
tion, enlarged and with improved classifica-
tion, was published ; and, still later, a third
edition, limited to 300 copies, which is now
out of print and is frequently called for.
There is need of a new edition, more compre-
hensive, with great care for accuracy of ad-
dresses and the most careful classification in
order to give it the greatest possible useful-
ness. Such a revised and improved edition
is now being prepared and dealers and col-
lectors can render important assistance if they
are so disposed, and we believe it is for their
interest to do it. Collectors not heretofore
enrolled are invited to send in the names, full
addresses, and special lines in which they are
interested. Librarians who are systematical-
ly adding to special collections may find this
an effective method in keeping in touch with
dealers in this country and England. This list
is becoming more or less an established insti-
tution, important alike to the dealer and col-
lector, as a means of communication. Sug-
gestions or information from any source will
be appreciated.
The sale of the Corder Collection, with addi-
tions, at the American Art Galleries on Jan-
uary 26 and 27 must have pleased every body
for there seemed to be a very lively interest in
rare books, and prices thruout were well main-
tained. The stability which valuable books
are showing must give collectors a great deal
of satisfaction, and, at the same time, it is
higthly encouraging for the trade because it is
the very foundation of their business. The
Dickens, Thackeray and Kipling special col-
lections sold especially well ; the Cruikshank
and Rowlandson illustrated books brought
good prices, some very high prices; and the
collected sets of first editions brought quite
as much as any one had any right to expect.
A few of the rarer lots and the prices realized
were the following: Ainsworth's "Works,"
109 vols., a collected set of first editions, Lon-
don, 1826-1911, $1350; Frederick Augustus,
Prince of Brunswick's "Reflections on the
Character of Alexander the Great, London,
1767, Washington's own copy, with his auto-
graph signature at the head of the title and
with his book plate, $1,550; Lord Dulwer
Lytton's "Works," 127 vols., v. p. 1820-1883,
collected set of first editions, $1,225; Cruik-
shank's "The Humorist," 4 vols., morocco,
London, 1819-20, an uncut copy of the first
issue of the first edition, $825 ; Dickens's
"Writings," 73 vols., morocco, London and
Boston, 1836-1882, a collected set of first edi-
tions, $2,300; "Pickwick Papers," 1836-37, in
parts, first issue of the first edition thruout,
$3.450; Milton's "L' Allegro," London 1920-21,
a beautifully executed manuscript in the style
of the early 15th century, $1,000; Kipling's
"Letters of Marque," London, 1911, one of two
known copies, the remainder of the edition
having been suppressed by the author, $1,525 ;
Charles Lever's "Works," 55 vols., calf,
Dublin, London and Edinburgh, 1839-1879, a
collected set of first editions, $950; six original
water color drawings by Thomas Rowlandson,
signed and bound in morocco, circa 1800-1815,
$75° ', Surtees's "Sporting Novels," 5 vols., in
parts, 1853-65, in choice condition, $850;
Thackeray's "Works," 53 vols., calf, London,
1840-1879, a collected set of first editions,
$850; "Vanity Fair" in parts, London 1847-
48, first issue with all of the advertisements
and slips, $2,100; and Anthony Trollope's
"Works," 135 vols., morocco, London and
Edinburgh, 1848-85, first editions with eleven
presentation copies, said to be the best set ever
offered at public sale, $1,700.

It will pay you to take the time to
read this novel yourself and also
have your salesman read it. You

GEORGE
MADDEN
MARTIN
Faith in the American woman! That is what this Southern novelist has.
Great things in the world she believes can be the accomplishment of her sex. By
her writings and by manifold personal activities she is working toward that end.
The famous "Emmy Lou" books won for her a vast audience of readers, to
whom the appeal of her keen understanding of the child mind proved a delight.
Her stories of the negro have aroused the attention of all interested in the
race question. In "Children in the Mist" the negro himself saw a thoughtful and
serious presentation of his problem and workers among the colored people recog-
nized Mrs. Martin as a leader in thought upon the great national problem.
In her fictional studies of childhood and of the race question, Mrs. Martin
was dealing with matters which she believes offer to womankind tremendous
opportunities for fruitful achievement. Now she has turned to the central part
of her belief and in her new novel, "March On," has written a powerful study of
the modern woman, who finds in her possession a sudden and complete emancipa-
tion in a time when change is attacking all aspects of
our national life.
Mrs. Martin is an active clubwoman, belonging
to many organizations both here and abroad. She is an
able lecturer, whose opportunities are frequent for pre-
sentation of her thought on the subjects with which
she keeps in close touch. Her friends know her
as a charming woman, who combines the fine flavor of
the old Southern traditions with a forward looking
spirit, which is essentially her own.
MARCH ON — "Mrs. Martin's new book has been worth Wait-
ing for — so fine and moving a performance is it. ... She has
given her message to her readers with a vitality, a flame of
conviction, a noble and sweeping force of portrayal. . . . It is
a novel of today that speaks thrillingly with the voice of the
younger generation. ... It is a novel, too, that is just now
of peculiarly timely consequence ... a stirring, flaming banner
proclaiming the iniquity of war." — N. Y. Times Book Review.

TO THE TRADE:
On Sunday, February twelfth, IF WINTER COMES will be six months
old. Back on August twelfth, 1921, we published this novel with high
hopes for it, but with no idea that it would be the most popular book
in years. But just that has happened! The advance sales of IF WINTER GOMES
were 8600 copies, including 1500 copies sent to Canada. To date we have
shipped out 265,673 copies, and the 305th thousand is printing. We know of
no other novel published in the twentieth century, which, starting out in
, a smnll way, has rolled up such a total in so short a time.
IF WINTER CONES still heads the lists of best sellers both in
England and America, and according to the latest report in the Bookman
is the novel most in demand at the public libraries. We have every
reason to believe that its popularity will continue undiminished for
many months to come, and it seems likely that this splendid novel is
destined to break records in point of total sales.
We find a steadily increasing demand for Mr. Hutchinson's other
novels, ONCE ABO.'iRD THE LUGGER--, THE HAPPY WARRIOR, and THE CLEAN HEART,
and there is every indication that during 1922 they will out-sell most
new novels.
Hutchinson's place in literature as one of the really great novelists
•of this century has been definitely established. • His books will be in
active demand for many years to come. In response to numerous requests,
we shall issue on February twenty-fifth an attractive Pocket Edition,
bound in limp leather, of bis four novels, and we believe that the book
trade will find a ready sale for this edition among their many customers
who wish to have all of Hutchinson's novels on their library shelves.
With much appreciation of the splendid cooperation on the part of
the book trade throughout the country, without which such an amazing
success as that of IF WINTER COMES would have been impossible, we are

dian author, and he says : "It seems to
me so truly charming, so felicitous in
subtle touches of humor, that surely it
will find its own lovers ; those, perhaps,
who utter the names of Barrie and Ken-

AN ORDEAL
OF HONOR
By ANTHONY PRYDE
Author of "Marqueray's Duel," "Jenny Essenden" "Nightfall."
Within the brief space of two years Mr. Anthony Pryde has won an enviable place
among writers of romantic fiction, and a popularity among fiction readers which
is constantly growing. A writer with a marked facility in the manipulation oi
plots, he is also the possessor of a gift for creating characters who stand out
in sharply defined reality from their background and from one another and who
speak in a brilliant, audacious fashion. His novels are swiftly moving, revolv-
ing about situations which are often bold and startling. His scene is almost
invariably the political and fashionable England of today and his people the
urbane, sophisticated men and women who inhabit it.
The qualities which have made Mr. Pryde's other books popular are present in
ample measure in An Ordeal of Honor. The story of a man accused of a crime
in which he has no part, of misfortune heroically borne, and of a love which en-
dures in spite of doubt and even degradation, it is a book which is unfailingly
dramatic and which will assure the author of a still warmer place in the esteem
of the many readers whom his other novels have won for him. $2 net.

KIMONO
BY

PARIS

Japan
Chronicle
One of the "big books" of 1922!
« "What Interests People?"
9.
Lord Northcliffe says in a recent article in The American
Magazine that "among the two or three books people
CL< are most interested in just now on the other side is
KIMONO, a novel of Anglo-Saxon and Japanese life."
O Reading the reviews from the English press makes one cer-
J^H tam that the book will start a furore over here. (We
were going to quote some of the fine comments of the
foreign press, but refer you to the end papers of the novel
itself, where about fifteen or so are given.)
^i KIMONO is the story of the marriage of an Englishman
to a Japanese girl, an orphan of great wealth, who
has been brought up in Europe; of how they go to Japan . .
against the advice of their friends and for a time are
parted, half by the efforts of her Japanese relatives, and
half by his discovery that her money is derived from
property in the Yoshiwara (Japan's official houses of
• • prostitution) .
But more, Japan, the mysterious, the inscrutable, its soul <^
and spirit, are revealed never to be forgotten.
The author of KIMONO is a well-known English diplomat,
who was attached for five years to the British Legation O
in Japan (John Paris is a pseudonym).
KIMONO is destined to be a great seller without a doubt
from the hour the book is out on your counters (several
American publishers have made flattering offers for our N^N
rights). The more you have on hand, of course — !

An Advance Notice of Spring Books
YOUNG BOSWELL BY CHAUNCEY BREWSTER TINKER
Professor Tinker of Yale University, the recognized authority on i8th century Eng-
lish literature, gives us here a new book based on what is considered to be a miraculous
discovery of manuscript letters written by the Boswell, not yet known to fame, to Rosseau,
Oliver Goldsmith, John Wilkes, and many of the celebrities and notorieties of the day. A
few of Professor Tinker's chapters will be printed in the ATLANTIC. In the book there
will be many illustrations, chiefly reproductions of manuscripts and unfamiliar prints. The
volume will therefore have the same appearance as A. Edward 'Newton's highly popular
"Amenities of Book Collecting" and "A Magnificent Farce," and will doubtless have the
same wide appeal as well as an important place in permanent literature.
Publication date April I. Price $3.50
THE IRON MAN BY ARTHUR POUND
Arthur Pound, an alumnus of the University of Michigan, lives at Flint, a manufac-
turing center for automobiles, where the development of automatic machinery has been
carried to the highest point. THE IRON MAN is the automatic machine, and Mr. Pound
studies its effect upon human beings in a variety of ways and in their relations with life.
His knowledge of the human problems of factory management is the result of years of
intelligent and imaginative study. A few of the articles have appeared in the ATLANTIC,
where they have attracted much attention.
Publication date April 15. Probable Price $1.75
A GLANCE TOWARD SHAKESPEARE
BY JOHN JAY CHAPMAN
John Jay Chapman, scholar and man of letters, is also the author of William Lloyd
Garrison, a recent addition to the Atlantic .Monthly Press book-list. His new book
contains a number of short papers on the individual plays and on such topics as "The
Plays as Poetry," "On the Stage," "Shakespeare's Types." and "Notes on Enunciation," and
"On American Speech." Full of brilliant criticism and suggestions it will make a special
appeal to general readers as well as to teachers of literature.

FINDING YOUTH By NELSON ANDREWS
Sixty Years is the age for Finding Youth, according to Nelson Andrews, and his re-
markable story is one of actual experience. It is an intensely interesting account of the
way in which this man took Fate by storm, found work, and founded a community made
of other young men and women of his own age. The author says : "This story is told
because others need to know it. They need to know it now, when all the world is making
a blind struggle to find youth — a new creative spirit." It is an inspiring message of hope
and optimism to older men and a story of strong human interest.

CONSOLATION By MRS. ALBION FELLOWS BATON
Within a week of its publication in the December, 1921, ATLANTIC, this article

hope that it would appear in a more permanent form, it is now reprinted as an Easter
booklet, in order that Mrs. Bacon's rarely beautiful and comforting message may reach
an ever-increasing number of thosie who stand in need of such solace.

Four Unusual Abingdon Books
BEYOND SHANGHAI
By HAROLD SPEAKMAN
This exceedingly charming "look in" upon China is unique because it
is "different." The author says : "I made a solemn compact with myself
not to attempt to describe, sketch, or otherwise molest the imperial palaces
at Peking, but to see as much as I could of the Chinese people themselves
in their humblest and most intimate surroundings, to live alone with the
Chinese and to eat their food." And this he did, and the fruitage of his
unusual experiences is given in this interesting book, embellished by eight
illustrations in color from paintings made on the spot by the author.

reminded of the praiseful Psalmist who bursts out with this song: "Let

This is the first time that the new titles of these "Important" series have
been published at this season of the year. We are making this innovation
because we believe that right now, in the after-holiday season, there is an
opportunity to push the sales of Juvenile books into almost undreamed of
figures.
And why not? These winter afternoons and evenings are ideal times for the
boy and girl to read; the books which the youngsters receive at Christmas
time have aroused their fresh interest in the different juvenile series; in many
cases they still have their Christmas money to spend. Just consider what
an appeal the New Reduced Price will make to them!
Isn't this the psychological moment to give them new titles in the most
popular series in the market — the series they have learned to enjoy; — the
new titles they look for and have never had before at this time?
It certainly looks to us as though this gives a tremendously big opportunity
to follow up the Christmas trade ot books for the boys and girls.
You can enjoy a large Juvenile business now.

The Canyon of the Fools
by Richard Matthews Hallet
Richard Matthews Hallet is the man
whose serial stories have won such
genuine approval from America's mil-
lions of magazine readers. Because
he is a born story teller, who puts
into his work the essence of adventure
and romance and humor as he has
distilled them from life by his own
astonishing contacts. Since his uni-
versity days he has combed the land and the sea for
experience. The result is a first novel whose distinctive
humor, unique plot and picaresque characters set it in a
class apart from the work of any of the younger American
writers of to-day. It is a story of a hunt for gold, a tale
of love and excitement, told with chuckles.
A book that will be read for the sheer joy of the
reading. No description can possibly get the spirit
of it. We feel its success is assured. It will be pub-
lished March 16th. $2.00
Coomer All
£
<»
by S. B. H. Hurst
It was published on February 1st. Al-
ready critics are vindicating the Pub-
lishers' judgment that in the author of
this strange tale they have made a liter-
ary find.
Sidney Williams in the Philadelphia
North American: "Seldom indeed, ap-
pears a tale comparable to Coomer Ali
in candid unveiling of men in the clutch
of greed." Wilson Follett: "I size Mr. Hurst up as a writer
who can never be anything but inimitable and a delight; his
hurricane at sea is the next best thing to Conrad's
Typhoon. I read the book with vast enjoyment, and at
one sitting."
It's a breath-taking story of intrigue — of Mohammed-
ans and white men who have cast their lot in the Far
East. Re-order to day on this book which is being
widely advertised, and which will bring every buyer
back for the other S. B. H. Hurst novels to follow.

The Worth of a Salesman's Time
IT is worth while for industry to pause occa-
sionally to estimate the industrial value of
those men who tour the country month after
month, bringing to the attention of the retailers
the product of the manufacturers.
Those who carefully study the problems of
distribution and the elements that enter into
successful and economical merchandising never
fail to come from such an investigation with an
increased respect for the pivotal value of those
who in the field are the representatives of es-
tablished lines or of new proposals. It is some-
times speciously argued that there would be a
saving in the ultimate cost of a product if the
expenses of travelers were dispensed with, but
actual experiments in this direction have shown
that this change is uneconomical in result, and
that only by means of personal presentation
can the goods be distributed in quantities that
accomplish low production cost.
The method that preceded this era of the
traveler was the system that brought the retailer
annually or semi-annually to the large distri-
buting centers to select his goods. There is in
this operation a larger expenditure of time than
by having travelers in the field, except in some
lines of merchandise, where the year's buying
can be planned at one special time and where
there are advantages in seeing large contrasted
groups of merchandise at one time.
Successful retailers who analyze the ele-
ments that have permitted them promptly and
adequately to meet the needs of their com-
munities are always generous in their appre-
ciation of what the contact with the well-in-
formed traveler means to them. They get
information, suggestions and selling inspira-
tion that could not be had from cold type, and
these travelers acquire a keen faculty of taking
from one place to another ideas for buying and
selling that are an important contribution to
the success of all stores.
The old-fashioned idea that a traveler was
a man to be kept scraping his feet on the door
mat has pretty well passed away, altho there
are still some buyers who believe that they
need high fences around their time in order to
protect them from the inroads of the sample
cases. The contact between the traveler and
the retailer is after all a short allotment of
time for the value that can be obtained, and if
the retailer is well-prepared with a knowledge
of his business and local conditions, there is
everything to gain by giving ample time to the
traveler and not only in giving ample time but
giving it as promptly as conditions permit.
The idea that the dignity of a buyer is in-
creased by the number of hours he can keep
someone waiting in his city for attention should
pass out along with all other misunderstandings
between buyer and seller. In the long run the
buyer must pay for waste of time just as he
must pay for everything that affects the cost
of a product, and in these times when every-
one is interested in reduction of cost there is a
real reason for careful husbanding of the time
of the travelers.
One Thousand Members Needed
REPORTS coming in from the Executive
Committee of the American Booksellers'
Association indicate that it is aggressive-
ly handling the vital problem of increased
membership. The Convention last spring set
1000 members as its objective, and no better
time could be selected for such a drive. Book-
sellers scattered over the country too little real-
ize what the national organization, even with its
slight machinery, has done to better the con-
ditions under which they work, and even tho
unable to attend the Convention, these dealers
ought to give their moral support by joining
and their financial support which will enable
the Executive Committee to accomplish more.
One of the Convention Committee recently
wrote : "Many of our prominent booksellers
who are not members of the A. B'. A. are
laboring under the impression that our Con-
ventions are just a lark and that many things
are discussed there that have no vital im-
portance or are not important enough to
warrant their attending the Convention.
"Now is the time to correct this impression.
The future of the book business has great
promise, and we must make our organization
complete and make it stand for nationwide
effort to improve bookselling conditions."

The Publishers' Weekly
Maintaining Standards
STATISTICS and percentages have never
received such wide attention as in the past
few years. We find them on all sides
molding our opinions. It often seems, however,
as tho figures were quite generally suspected
by those that read them. Among current sta-
tistics received are some from the National In-
dustrial Conference Board whose charts show
that the dollar is now worth 61,1 c. This would
mean that $2 ought to buy $1.22 worth of books
at the 1914 level. It does, in fact, buy about
$1.40 worth, but the retailer who may suggest
this will find that customers do not believe
figures implicitly.
From the Federal Reserve statistics just at
hand we find that the Department of Labor
estimates that December wholesale prices were
at 149, again a higher figure than that which
is current on books. The Department of Labor
figures indicate that the cost of living in Xew
York City is at 178.1 ; again books seem to be
low. Furniture and household furnishings are
at 232; miscellaneous at 216.9. Books pre-
sumably fall into one of these two classifica-
tions but it is important to note that books are
one of the commodities which are far below
the average.
We notice a comment on book prices from
the makers of binding board, who point out
that their prices have come down heavily
while books only slightly, but binding board
went up the 300% by 1920, and even after a
heavy drop is still 100% higher than in 1914.
If books had gone up on the same rocketing
plane, there would be plenty of room to come
down.
All of these fresh figures do not indicate
that there should not be a continuing effort
to keep prices of books at the lowest level
possible, as it is everyone's wish to get the
widest distribution obtainable. At the same
time, there is comment from many sides on the
need of improving the physical aspect of all
books to give them greater beauty and dur-
ability.
In our department of Good Book-Making,
we have been endeavoring to keep this sub-
ject to the front steadily during the time when
standards of manufacture were difficult to
maintain. We now believe that increasing-
discussion should be given to this subject,
as books that are worth printing are worth
printing in a way that will be attractive and
durable. It is not possible to plan each new
book in several different types of editions, one
for the collector, one for the library and one
for the casual reader. All groups have got
to be supplied from one common stock but
greater dignity and durability can be obtained
over a wider group of current publications,
and publishers must realize that dealers and
consumers are very much alert on this subject
at the present time.
Turnovers and Leftovers
ABOUT fifteen years ago," writes a pub-
lisher, "I was taken to the buyers' room
in one of the large department stores of
Boston. There were booths along one side of
the room, and above the row of booths extend-
ing the length of the room in large letters were
painted the words :
WE MAKE MONEY ON OUR TURNOVERS AND LOSE
MONEY ON OUR LEFTOVERS
There has been unquestionably a new appre-
ciation of what the turnover may mean, and
its importance has not escaped the attention of
every good retailer. As a rule for present
business prosperity, the above motto is hard to
improve upon.
At the recent annual meeting of the National
Association of Book Publishers, President
Hiltman spoke of the present importance of
quick turnover in the book world, and said that
he believed the publishers as well as retailers
must mould their business plans to have quick
turnover and lose less on the leftover. As the
time for spring orders comes and the travelers
appear with catalogs and lists of new books,
this subject is one which is again vitally to the
front.
The best way to increase turnover on already
published books seems to be to take ample time
to check the catalogs with regard to past sales
and present stock. The public is not going to
be permanently interested in the bookstore that
does not take great pains to have the books
wanted on hand when they are called for, and
a slighting of check-ups is a quick method of
bringing that kind of criticism upon the book-
seller's head.
In spite of the fluctuating character
of book demands, the sales and pur-
chases of one year do give valuable information
as to the needs of; the next. Not to take time
and pains to get the benefit of that information
is to encourage careless buying. The booksel-
ler wtho had a market for ten copies of a staple
book in the spring months of last year is as
much mistaken if he orders one copy this year
as if he orders fifteen copies. Neither order
is based on accurate knowledge or understand-
ing of turnover.

Act Now for a Just Tariff on Books
The Present Schedules in the Fordnev Bill Menace all Book Interests
IF the Fonlney Tariff Bill should pass in its
present form the book business of the United
States and the educational and literary interests
of the country- would suffer to an unpar-
alleled extent. A strong presentation of the
need of changes in the bill has been made to
the Ways and Means Committee and to the
Senate Finance Committee by representatives
of the publishers, booksellers, libraries, educa-
tional institutions and toy book manufacturers.
The tariff is now at the front for final action,
and every member of the book-trade and every
institution interested in the use of books should
put behind these filed protests their strongest
and most urgent personal pressure, in order
that the danger may be averted. No tariff is
settled until the Bill is finally passed and signed,
and in the next two weeks protests to Con-
gress and especially to members of the Finance
Committee of the Senate are extremely im-
portant.
In order to make clear the character of the
most needed changes, seven points are listed on
the following page and following that are ten-
tatively suggested the revisions that would be
needed in order to bring these changes about.
Changes in paragraph 1529-30 would put
books over twenty years old and books in
foreign languages back on the free list. There
has been no good reason suggested from any
direction for the omission of these from the
free list. Books over twenty years old are
non-competitive, they are needed for the enrich-
ment of the educational and literary resources
of the country. The income from a tariff on
these would be of negligible value to the gov-
ernment compared to the importance of having
such material come readily to our public and
private libraries. The public libraries would
be exempt from this tax by further provisions
but would have the annoying detail of filing
manifestos with each importation.
Xo printers or publishers in this country
have contended that there is need of a protection
on foreign language books, and to omit them
from the free list would be a step backward
that should not be thought of. We owe it to
ourselves to have the fullest and easiest intel-
lectual contact with all the world, and we owe
it to all our new citizens that they be able to
obtain books in their own languages without
extra expense.
The duty on English books under twenty
years old has been set at twenty per cent,
which is five per cent higher than the last tariff
and five percent lower than the previous Repub-
lican tariff. Competent testimony shows that
books can be manufactured here as cheaply as
in England, and twenty per cent is ample pro-
tection for the printers.
It would be especially unfortunate to double
or triple this by the use of such expedients as
the American Valuation or the use of American
wholesale prices, instead of English cost prices
for levying this duty. The American Valua-
tion Plan of appraisement as provided for in
the present draft of the bill in Section 402
would be almost impossible of application to
books. No two books are exactly alike, and
the appraisers would be obliged to give the
American importers unwarranted delays while
they endeavored to estimate what the American
valuation of a book might be.
The theory of American Valuation has been
to protect American manufacturers against the
product of the countries where there was extra-
ordinary monetary depression. The condition
of English exchange, however, does not justify
such radical measures to protect American book
industry, and such protection has not been
asked for by the publishers. The only type
of book that might suffer from such compe-
tition is the children's toy book, which should
be more clearly protected in the toy section, as
per the sound suggestion of the toy book manu-
facturers.
If Congress should adopt in place of the
American Valuation method the plan of basing
tariff on American wholesale prices instead of
on the cost in the country of exportation, this
would practically double the duty on books
with a great disadvantage to the people as a
\vhole to whom access to books of all countries
at the lowest rate possible is of more import-
ance than this slight added revenue for the
government.
The insertion in the book paragraph (1310)
of a special tho ambiguous reference lo leather
bound books is not justified by the needs of the
case. Evidence before the Senate Finance
Committee shows that leather binding is at
present as low in this country as they are in
England and that twenty per cent tariff would
amply protect the binding industry of leather
bound as well as cloth bound books and books
in sheets.
The change in d.ufy free privileges of libraries
to restrict their totals* has not been justified
by any evidence submitted, and the restriction
on the amount that families may bring into the
country of books in their private libraries is
c-ntirely uncalled for and not needed by any
standard of protective measures.
The evidence placed before Congress has con-
sisted of a brief presented and filed by John
Macrae, representing the publishers and book-
338
The Publishers' Weekly
sellers, a very carefully analyzed presentation
of the faults in the measure presented by M.
Llewellyn Raney, representing the American
Library Association and the educational inter-
ests of the country ; a brief representing the
retailers filed last fafll with the Wkiys and Means
Committee by Charles E. Butler, representing
the booksellers, and a later brief with careful
reanalysis of the situation from a retail point
of view presented to the Senate Finance Com-
mittee by Charles E. Lauriat, Jr., of Boston ; a
brief presented and filed by 'Charles E. Graham,
representing the toy book manufacturers.
The printers and binders sent counsel to
argue for a higher duty than the twenty per
cent, but presented no concrete figures to in-
dicate that American industry needed a higher
rate for its prosperity. The difference between
the cost in the two countries is now too closely
paralleled to make such a rate just or produc-
tive in any sense.
The brief presented by the libraries did not
touch on the need for the elimination of the
American Valuation or American wholesale
method of appraisement which is so important
to the book-trade, as this would not affect their
duty free privilege which is being supported
by all parties. But, while the libraries would
not be affected by the duty on old books or on
foreign books, if levied, they have given the
strong weight of their protest in America's best
interest.
Let Everyone Write Congress
Every one in the book-trade or library and
educational world who believes in keeping the
channels of book distribution open and on a
just and reasonable basis should write to Con-
gress either to the Committee members or oth-
ers in order that the vital importance of ohang«
es in the book paragraphs be not overlooked.
If this book-trade statement were put in the
hands of every local paper a wave of interest
would be started that would reach Washing-
ton.

FORDNEY TARIFF BILL— H. R. 7456
The following changes in the book schedules are urgently recommended :
I. The duty on all books bound or un-
bound except such as may be otherwise pro-
vided for should not be more than 20%
ad valorem based on cost price to im-
porter in country of exportation (Par. 1310.)
2. Children's toy > books should be pro-
tected under toys (Par. 1414) with clarified
description of what constitutes a toy book
and the 40% duty as proposed.
3. Books should be specifically exempted
from American Valuation appraisement
(Sec. 402) as being impractical to apply and
unnecessary for adequate protection of this
American industry.
4. Books over 20 years old should be re-
instated on the Free List. (Par. 1529.)
5. Books in foreign languages should be
reinstated on the Free List. (Par. 1530.)
6. Libraries and educational institutions
should be given the same duty free priv-
ilege as before, i. e., not to exceed two in
any one invoice instead of two in all. (Par.
1531.)
7. The libraries of families from other
countries should be duty free without the
limitation of $250. (Par. 1532.)
February u, 1922
339
i. Duty on books should not be more than
20 per cent ad valorem based on cost price
to importer in country of exportation.
This would be accomplished by inserting the
following in Par. 1310, after the words "20 per
centum ad valorem."
"on the actual price paid or to be paid in
the country of exportation, not inclusive
of royalties, or, in the case such price is
not predetermined, then the wholesale price
or market value, not inclusive of royalties
in the country of exportation on the quan-
tities sold for such exportation."
Leather bound books would be given ade-
quate protection when covered by the same
20 per cent as other books.
This would be accomplished by the elimina-
tion of the ambiguous line from Par. 1310,
lines 5-7,
"books bound wholly or in part in leather,
the chief value of which is in the binding,
not specially provided for, 33 1/3 per centum
ad valorem."
2. Children's toy books should be ade-
quately protected under the toy schedules and
not by a confusing mention in both book and
toy paragraphs.
This can be accomplished by eliminating
from Par. 1310, lines 7-10,
"books of paper or other material for chil-
dren's use, printed lithographically or other-
wise, not exceeding in weight twenty-four
ounces each, with more reading matter
than letters, numerals, or descriptive words,
20 per centum ad valorem."
And by slightly clarifying the description of
toy books used in Par. 1414, which gives
40 per centum ad valorem duty, to read, fol-
lowing the words "toy balloons" on line 2.
"toy books printed on paper or cloth, un-
bound or flexibly bound, or in bindings of
card board bearing illuminated cover design
for children, printed lithographically or
otherwise."
This to take the place of the present descrip-
tion, which reads :
"toy books without reading matter other than
letters, numerals or descriptive words,
bound or unbound, and parts thereof."
3. There should be a specific exemption of
books from American Valuation appraisement
of Sec. 402.
This should be accomplished by adding the
following to Sec. 402 at the end thereof:
"Provided, however, that books shall be
exempted from the method of valuation pre-
scribed above and "value" in the case of
books shall mean the actual price paid or
to be paid in the country of exportation not
inclusive of royalties, or, in the cases where
such price is not predetermined, then the
wholesale price or market value, not in-
clusive of royalties in the countries of ex-
portation on the quantities sold for such
exportation."
Testimony submitted to the Finance Com-
mittee of the Senate showed not only that the
added protection of American Valuation is
not needed or desired by the book industry
but that it would be peculiarly annoying and
complicated in operation as applied to books.
American Valuation is designed primarily
as a protection against the depreciated cur-
rency of the countries of central Europe; but
those countries publish practically no books
in the English language and so are not com-
petitors of American publishers. The cur-
rency of English speaking countries is no-
where sufficiently depreciated to constitute a
menace to American publishers, so that the
most weighty argument in favor of Ameri-
can Valuation fails in the case of books.
4. Books over 20 years old should be re-
turned to the Free List as being non-com-
petitive and as necessary to the educational
and intellectual progress of the country.
This can be done by prefixing to Par. 1529
the following from Par. 425 of the Act of
1913 (agreeing with Par. 517 of the Act of
1909):
"Books, maps, music, engravings, photo-
graphs, etchings, lithographic prints, bound
or unbound, and charts, which shall have
been printed more than 20 years at the date
of importation, and all?'
Books over 20 years old have been on the
Free List for half a century. It would be a
grave injustice to the scholars and book-
lovers of the country, as well as to the trade,
to change this long standing exemption.
In the hearings before the Finance Com-
mittee no reason or argument was advanced
for imposing a duty on old books, but every
speaker who mentioned the subject agreed that
they should be restored to the free list.
5. Books in foreign languages should be
returned to the Free List, as being in no large
sense competitive, necessary to better" inter-
national understanding and American scholar-
ship, and important to a vast number of our
new citizens.
This can be accomplished by prefixing to
Par. 1513 the following from Par. 426 of the
Act of 1913 (agreeing with Par. 518 of Act
of 1909) :
"Books and pamphlets wholly or chiefly in
languages other than English; also"
6. Reinstate the former privileges of li-
braries and schools by making Par. 1531, lines
10 and 12 of the Free List read:
"may import free of duty, not to exceed
in any one invoice two copies of any book,
map, music, engraving, photograph, etching,
lithographic print, or chart."
34<J
The Publishers' Weekly
There are no indications that the closer
restriction is necessary.
7. In Par. 1532, reading,
"Books and libraries of persons or fam-
ilies from foreign countries if actually used
abroad by them not less than one year, and
not intended for any other person or per-
sons, nor for sale, and not exceeding $250
in value."
eliminate the words, "and not exceeding $250
in value" as not necessary for protective
purposes.
No reason has been advanced for the in-
sertion of this unnecessary limitation. It
would certainly not benefit the publishers and
book trade of the United States, nor would
it produce enough revenue to pay the cost
of administration.
Making a Fortune on Four Hours a Day
By George W. Gether
Reprinted from M. I. S. T.
HOW many hours a day does the average
outside salesman work? It has been
proved again and again that by working
more, the salesman makes more sales, which
means that he makes more money. Once the
actual figures have been put before a salesman,
if he is a real salesman and not an order-taker,
an improvement of from 50 to 100 per cent and
even more is noticed in his results.
Some salesmen work only two hours a day,
yet they manage to make comfortable livings.
They are happy and contented, and think they
are successful. Back somewhere in their minds
is the dim thought of maybe making ten per
cent more when "conditions" are right.
They don't realize that they could double
their sales by doubling their two hours of work
to four, making twice as much, and, by saving
the increase, retire happily ever afterward in
ten or fifteen years.
Probably if they were to be told that they
worked only two hours a day they would be
insulted.
Two hours a day !
Let's see, now. Here's a salesman's day :
8 :3O to 9-45, at the store ;
9:45 to 10:10, trolley car;
10:10 to 10:35, with prospect;
10:35 to 10:50, walking;
10:50 to 11:30, with prospect;
11:30 to noon, trolley car;
Noon to i :oo. lunch ;
i :oo to 1:50, fussing at desk;
1-50 to 2:05, trolley;
2 :05 to 2 :55, with prospect ;
2:55 to 3:00, walking;
3:00 to 3:10, with prospect; »
3:10 to 3:35, trolley-
3 '-35 to 5 :4O, fussing about the store ;
5 :4O, left for home.
How many hours of work is that Eight
thirty to five forty, nine hours total? Not on
your life.
Look again. First, there's "10:10 to 10:35,
with prospect." There's 25 minutes work. Go
on down the list. One hundred and twenty-
five minutes with prospects — two hours and
five minutes of work and the rest of the day
gone blooey ! Not a call in the evening, either.
the 'best time af all for home selling.
What is work, anyway? Work has just one
justification and that is the result. Mere ac-
tivity t(hat cannot bring direct results in sales
is no kind of work for a salesman. The work
that counts in selling is the work done vrith,
the prospect.
Here it is in a nutshell-
A salesman works only when he is in the
presence of the prospect.
Of course there are a lot of unproductive
things a salesman has to do. He can't help it
that all the prospects don't live side by side on
Prospect street, but are scattered all over the
map. He has to spend time getting from
place to place. He has to spend a few min-
utes at headquarters daily, getting the mail,
the latest dope from the manufacturer, and
proving to the boss that he is on the job.
The point is that these unproductive things
are mighty nice to do, and it is all too easy to
get tied up in a mess of inside stuff that
doesn't lead anywhere except in.
The salesman has to get out — out where the
business is to be had. out among the prospects.
The more prospects he sees in a day, the great-
er his chances of making sales and the greater
his chances, the greater his fortune.
Some amount of unproductive time is inevit-
able. It takes time to get from place to place,
for instance. Yet much lost time can be
turned to account — in the presence of the pros-
pect. How much is up to you. If a salesman
is occupied with business for eight hours a
day, it is liberal enough to allow him half
that time for traveling, the main and one really
unavoidable "time out" from selling.
Four hours a day for ivork.
In the presence of prospects.
A salesman is not working unless he is sell-
ing.
Four hours a day of selling.
In the presence of prospects.

The Bookstore's Star Salesman
By Michael Gross
Tlu' Michael dross Company. Xnv York.

IF you were told there was a third-story loft
right around the corner from your present
location, into which you could move your
book shop and thereby cut your present rent
bill in half, what would your answer be?
Undoubtedly you would say something to
this effect : "I know I can save a good deal of
money by moving into a loft but what chance
would I have of doing business without a show
Why should this be so? Any book-seller will
readily admit that there is no more faithful
salesman in his employ than the show window
of his store. It stays on the job day and night ;
never takes an hour off to eat, or a day off to
loaf ; is never too tired to show goods — and
never asks for a raise. Vet how often do we
find this "star salesman" being shamefully ne-
glected? How often is the show window used
A MASSKH UISl'LAY BROUGHT BRISK RESULTS WHEX USED ON A BUSY THOROFARE
window in which to display my merchandise?"
Which answer would be about one hundred per
cent correct, the proof of its accuracy being
that landlords figure practically the same way
in determining the rent of a store: two-fifths
for the store itself and three-fifths for the show
window which faces the street. On main
thorofares in big cities, the show window may
hring as high as nine-tenths of the total rent
cliarged.
But while it is true that most booksellers
sense the value of their show window as a
sales-stimulator, and realize they are paying a
stiff premium for the privilege of having one,
very few of them really make a profit on this
investment; in other words, get enough in-
creased business out of their trims to pay for
the window and a little over besides.
merely to let light into the store — instead of ad-
ditional cash into the register.
No ether part of a business so generously re-
pays for thought and effort as will the
window. Don't say that books are hard to
form into attractive displays. The photograph
which illustrates this article disproves the state-
ment. And what convincing testimony the
picture offers of the fact that a complete win-
dow full of books really does pay — as well, if
not better, than a display of other merchandise !
If book displays can be made to pay in New
York, where window space is worth anywhere
from two to ten dollars a square foot, rest
assured they will prove worth while in a smaller
town. When a store on one of the costliest
store sites in the country can see a profit in
trimming an entire window with books alone,
342
The Publishers' Weekly
there are possibilities for a bookseller in a
smaller town.
Of course, the displays arranged by these big
stores are no haphazard affairs — no mere piling
of a lot of books into a window and calling it
a day's work. Not only is the arrangement
carefully planned beforehand but the titles
themselves are carefully scrutinized to see
whether they are appropriate both for the sea-
son of the year and for the class of people to
whom the store caters. A detective trim can be
featured during a particularly dull, rainy season
of the year, when the average business man
who passes this window wants to do nothing
better than get home, have a bite, and then settle
down into a comfortable arm chair with a
rattling good detective story.
Interviews with men in charge of trimming
the "big windows" in New York City, show that
all of them, broadly speaking, adhere to the
following "ten commandments" in planning a
book display :
1. Lighting: Have all the lights in the win-
dow concealed. (Electricity is no longer a
novelty. The time has passed when people will
travel miles to catch a glimpse of an electric
bulb. What you are most interested in selling
is books — not mazdas. And keep the bulbs
clean. Lighting experts figure that bulbs which
have not 'been cleaned for two weeks give only
two-thirds of the illumination they should, due
to the film of dust thru which the light must
first filter. Also be sure that your lights are
shaded, so that every bit of the illumination is
'Concentrated on the merchandise, where it
rightfully belongs.
2. Back up your window.. A person who is
interested enough to stop in front of your dis-
play should have his eyes kept there. Being
able to see what is going on inside the store
causes the attention to wander to the interior
instead of being concentrated on the window
trim. Don't dress your window either above
or below the eye level of the average person
who passes the store. If you have a very high
window, it is better to use side lights, in order
to secure even illumination on the display.
3. Have your window reflect the season.
Don't build a massive window full of ponderous
books in July. Don't display light and airy
novels in the dead of winter. June — and not
December — is the time for books on house-
keeping and home-making and cooking. Rainy,
gloomy March and April is the time for de-
tective fiction and other absorbing stories that
make the reader forget there is such a thing
as bad weather. July and August are natural
born salesmen for books on boating, bathing
and all outdoor sports. See that the text mat-
ter of your signs and window displays also links
up to the season of the year. "FOR THESE
RAINY, CHILLY NIGHTS WE HEARTILY RECOMMEND
A COMFORTABLE ARMCHAIR, A WARM FIRE AND
ANY BOOK IN THIS WINDOW" carries more of an
appeal to the passerby at certain seasons of the
year than would a Lyendecker original in your
window.
4. Avoid "fancy" sets. Don't get bitten by
the art bug and think you would like to try the
effect of putting just one book in your show
window, contrasted against an orange-colored
drape. That idea sounds fine when the Green-
wich Villager who has just moved around the
corner tells you about it. But in actual prac-
tice it doesn't work out quite so well. What
constitutes a good book, like the question of
what makes a good horse at the race track, is
largely a matter of opinion. That's why you
must have a window full of titles if you have
any at all. A person who stops in front of
your window with the idea in mind of buying
a book wants to see a large selection and pick
what he thinks is the best of the lot. Look at
the display used as an illustration for this
article. Do you think that any person who
even remotely believed he wanted to buy a book
could look into that window and not see some-
thing which appealed to him.
5. Change your windows often — once a week
is not at all too often to show something new.
In a small town especially, it does not take
long for every prospective purchaser to see
your display. If you do not change your win-
dow often the time will soon come when people
will stop looking into it at all. None of us
like to look at the same thing over and over
again (a woman with a mirror excepted, of
course). Constant change means constant in-
terest— which interest, in turn, means increased
sales. Is the extra time worth the extra sales?
It is up to you to make the decision.
6. Use displays and posters sent you. You
would be very much surprised if you knew
what these "silent salesmen" cost the publishers
who send them. One selling effort last year
cost the publisher nearly two dollars each for
the wlindow sets — and over a thousand of each
were ordered. Many book-sellers take the at-
titude that when they use a display sent them
by a publisher they are virtually giving over
their window to the selling of his book. This
viewpoint is, at best, short-sighted. Tlie more
books you sell the more books you have to buy
from the publisher — that fact is obvious. And
we also willingly admit that if the book-seller
didn't sell books the publishers might starve —
but then, so might the 'booksellers. Doh't
worry over the fact that displays will help sell
a certain book for a publisher or that you are
giving him your window for nothing. You
can't sell books for the publisher without sell-
ing them for yourself — take that thought to
heart and be comforted.
7. Shades down while window is being
February II, 1922
trimmed. Your clerk may be the handsomest
fellow in seven counties, but he rarely shows
up to advantage in the store window at high
noon, with his sleeves rolled up and a trickle
of perspiration running down the bridge of his
nose. And there is also an element of mystery
that people seem to like in seeing a shade down
and then, later in the day, having it go up again,
disclosing a new display.
8. Use judgment in color schemes. Don't
place books with red jackets against a red back-
ground. If you are arranging a trim with
books that have highly-colored wrappers, keep
the background a neutral tint, so that a contrast
is afforded. Don't try for an "all-star" per-
formance. Subordinate everything to the mer-
chandise you are trying to sell — BOOKS.
9. Get across the atmosphere of books. In
trimming a holiday window, endeavor to get
the idea of the holiday across and then show
books as forming part of the festival. A
Christmas window in New York City that
attracted considerable attention showed a cozy
room with a fireplace in one corner and a
Christmas tree in the other. Inside the fireplace
could be seen the boot-clad legs of Santa com-
ing down the chimney. A bagful of books lay
on the floor, as tho Santa had first thrown
them down. A large sign above the display
read : GIVE BOOKS FOR CHRISTMAS. In the same
way a vacation window might have a gang-
plank leading to a painted drop in the rear of
the window showing a boat at anchor. Once
the idea of vacation reading is hammered home
it is easy enough to get books into the scene —
and the connection is far more natural than if
the books were first "put over."
10. Never forget or neglect the windows.
The tenth commandment is merely a summary
of the other nine: You pay at least sixty per
cent of your rent for your show window. It
is — or, at least, should be, your star salesman.
Do not let it die from neglect.
List of Religious Books
A SUGGESTION in connection with Re-
ligious Book Week has been made that the
local booksellers could get attention concen-
trated on important literature in this field by
asking the local ministers to list for them what
they considered the best five recent religious
books. Such a list from those most compe-
tent to give opinions would be interest-
ing to all readers, and the local newspaper
would undoubtedly be interested to print such
a list. Each year there are books in this list
that command real attention and deserve wide
lay reading, and retailers will find Religious
Book Week an opportune time for such em-
phasi •-.
343
What is Increasing Sales
I N many directions we hear discussions and
1 conjectures as to what may be the underlying
causes for the increase in book sales. One
recent writer ventured to suggest that it was
a fad and that people were buying books and
talking about them who had no real under-
standing of what they were discussing or read-
ing. This would seem to be, in the opinion of
most of those on the floors of bookstores, an
explanation not backed by the intimate knowl-
edge of the new reading public.
Some echo of this discussion and perhaps
some answer to it is conveyed in a recent news-
paper heading,
TRYING TO FIND WHAT'S FILLING COLLEGES
"Presidents and other educators in New
England colleges have been trying to find out
wihy the American youth has been pressing in
large numbers at the gates of these institutions
to constitute freshman classes which set new
records in many] cases."
They give among the factors responsible for
the increase "the war-time demonstration of
the value of higher education, the quickening
of interest in all questions of international mo-
ment, and the hard times in business."
Proposes Trade Amalgamation
A SUGGESTION that the separate organiza-
tions of publishers and retailers should be
brought into more close relation is the thought
contained in a letter which has just been sent
out by B. W. Huebsch to his fellow members
in the American Booksellers' Association. Mr.
Huebsch says :
"The retail book-trade in the United States
is making up for lost time. Signs of new life
are everywhere apparent ,and the business of
distributing books is becoming a factor in
American life.
"A closer understanding between producers
and distributors is essential; bookselling and
publishing are like two arms on one body. In
my opinion, the enterprise in which we are en-
gaged will find its best development only when
the booksellers and publishers are united in one
organisation, each group continuing to func-
tion independently in those matters that con-
cern only its particular branch.
"The publishers are perfecting their organ-
ization; the booksellers are already strong, but
it behooves them to get every retailer into the
Association. Hence this suggestion that you
co-operate with the membership committee of
the American Booksellers' Association.
"Whatever you do for the Association you
do for authors and publishers as well as for
retailers ; all concerned with books have a com-
mon interest."

The Publishers' Weekly
Where To Start A Bookshop
IX connection with their efforts to continue the
healthy progress that has been made in the
starting of new bookstores, the National
Association of Book Publishers have made a
canvass thru traveling men for suggestions
as to what cities would make the best area for
new enterprises. Such a ballot gives valuable
information to work from when inquiries come
in as to good locations. The Association has
ready a new pamphlet on "The Successful
Bookshop" as well as a previous one on "Start-
ing a Book Department" and material on book-
store finance and circulating libraries.
It is impossible, of course, to print a list with-
out realizing that no informal ballot can accu-
rately represent the relative needs of various
cities and it is possible that votes might have
been cast in some instances which were intended
to indicate that some specific type of bookstore
was needed rather than a new general bookstore
which might compete with one which is already
recognised as doing good work. The city of
Newark was many times mentioned in these
ballots as it was last year in a similiar ballot
conducted by the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY, but
within a month a new bookshop has been started
there. In Brooklyn as in Newark there are two
large department stores, and the ballots prob-
ably meant that another type of general book
business might also be successful.
There is quite a large emphasis on Southern
cities, such as Jacksonville, New Orleans, Bir-
mingham. Memphis, Tulsa and Mobile. The list
printed includes only those cities that received
several mentions in the vote, but the ballot con-
tained a wide range of other suggestions. At
no time in book-trade history have so many
new bookshops been started as in 1921, and
there is every reason to believe that the move-
rtient will continue and snread.
It has been a marked peculiarity of the re-
cent entrants into the field that few of them
came from the established bookstores, but in-
stead have entered the arena from professional
or college life. As the ventures have proved
successful, it seems to indicate that bookselling
is a field in which intelligence can be somewhat
a substitute for experience when experience is
not easily obtainable.

On Whose Shelves are these Books Reposing?
By C. L. Cannon
Chief of Acquisition Division of the New York Public Library
WHY is it so difficult to find out-of-print
American books? This question forces^
itself upon a librarian who has tried
unsuccessfully, over a period of two years, to
pick up in the second-hand book trade such pop-
ular American authors as Joel Chandler Har-
ris, Frank Norris or Edward Eggleston. Ap-
parently, also, an out-of-print book need not
have been published ten or fifteen years ago to
be unavailable ; a brief three or four years
seems sufficient. It is accurate to go further,
and say that once gone from the publisher's
shelves, many volumes apparently vanish. Of
course this complete dissappearance is apparent
and not real. Copies, plenty of them, must still
be in existence : they may be found in the stocks
of second-hand dealers if one is inclined to
spend the time to hunt them out. But such
time-consuming methods are impossible for the
librarian, in view of the large number of re-
placements needed, and he must, of necessity,
rely upon sceond-hand dealers and book-hunt-
ers to supply his wants.
Why, then, are these wants not more readily
supplied? Considerable inquiry leads to the
conclusion that the chief obstacle is lack of in-
terest on the part of the dealer himself. There
are a number of widely known mediums in
which lists of books 'wanted are advertised. All
dealers are familiar with the lists printed in
the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY. Yet advertisements
there bring in only a portion of the titles listed.
The advance in the cost of carrying on the sec-
ond-hand business seems to be the fundamental
difficulty. It has forced the second-hand dealer
to economize. The cost of printing catalogs,
rents, clerical help, and supplies make a higher
percentage of profit necessary on stock turn-
over, and, since the prices of ordinary out-of-
print books cannot be advanced as rapidly as
costs justify, the dealer is in a way to lose
money. His defensive move in the face of this
situation, according to a number of New York
dealers, is to concentrate on "books with a
profit" such as Americana, local history, rare
first editions, etc., and pay correspondingly less
J-ihntary II,
345
attention to miscellaneous classes. When the
thoroness of organization ol the British sec-
ond-hand book trade is called to his attention,
with comment on the ease with which an out-of-
print book can ordinarily be secured in Great
Britain, the American dealer replies that the
cost of his help prevents the minute classifica-
tion and listing which constantly bring out titles
of old books in England and reduces the num-
ber of "scarce" volumes. Some dealers will say
frankly that they do not know what books they
have in stock, and that they throw all want-
lists in the waste basket when received.
There is a suspicion in the mind of the li-
brarian, at times, that some book dealers rely
too much on the demand of customers who
come to their place of business, as an indica-
tion of what books are popular, and not enough
on first hand information of their value as per-
manent literature. This would seem to account
for the large stock and heavy advertising of
erotica, business, and "inspirational" books and
the scarcity (judging by the repsonse) of the
early volumes of almost any prominent contem-
porary American author, Hamlin Garland, Up-
ton Sinclair, Mary E. Wilkins Freeman, for
example. Jack London was living three years
ago, and his books are favorably known in Eu-
rope, yet his "Kempton Wace Letters," pub-
lished by MacmiHan in 1903, seems to have
passed out of existence.
A similar absence of interest in library busi-
ness is indicated by an almost total lack of re-
sponse to requests for books in certain classes
of literature, journalism, for instance.
The book dealer may ibe justified by busi-
ness conditions, but it is certainly awkward for
the librarian whose replacement expenditures
constitute no mean part of his total book budget.
Are there not enough libraries purchasing mis-
cellaneous classes of books to make handling
this material profitable? If public libraries
have to go to the book dealer with their list of
wants, instead of his bringing his stock to them
in his catalogs, should not the dealer find it
profitable to classify and arrange his stock and
to search want-lists? Publishers will tell them
that there is no steady seller to compare with
a well-written book that out-lasts its genera-
tion. That is why Stephen Crane's stories are
being reprinted, and welcome news it is to li-
braries, which have tried vainly to get his
books at second-hand.
Getting the Books Wanted
THE increased interest in book collecting
and the importance of a systematic means
of communication between those who want
books and those who have them give increas-
ing importance to the Books Wanted columns
of the PUBLISHERS' WKEKLY. which reach every
second-hand and new book dealer in the coun-
try. It has been the report of many who check
thru these columns in order to quote books that
it is much easier to read, the lists of those book-
sellers who arrange their material in systematic
order and much easier to turn back and find
the entry after it is once passed.
Many of the lists sent in for this depart-
ment are in very confused shape, and the
straightening out for publication is not easy.
We have selected and reprinted in facsimile
samples of Books Wanted lists that come to
us in what, from the point of view of the
printers and in the opinion of the users of the
list, is the best possible form, alphabetical by
author, followed by title and publisher and
date, if known, especially the date if a par-
ticular edition is wanted.
Best Sellers
THE newly invigorated book page in the
^Cleveland Plain Dealer has made a point of
reporting the best sellers as given by the book-
stores of that city. In a column headed "Best
Sellers in Cleveland," it is printing lists of six
fiction and six non-fiction titles, from Burrows
Brothers, Halle Brothers, Korner & Wood,
Richard Laukhuff and The May Company.
From the five lists they then print a consoli-
dated list. Booksellers are thus put in compe-
tition with each other as to what type of book
shall reach the top of their particular list, a
new feature in retail competition and publicity.

When Do Movies Sell Books?
THS ORIGINAL PAINTINGS FOR THE MILTON BRADLEY EDITION OF "THE
THREE MUSKETEERS" WERE STRINKINGLY PLACED AND FINELY 'LLUMIN-
ATED IN A WINDOW DISPLAY OF L. BAMBERGER & COMPANY, NEWARK,
WHEN DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS WAS SHOWING.
EVER since the moving picture took its
prominent place in the public's regard, and
especially since the producers began, natu-
rally to tu!rn to book|si for their titles and plots,
there has been continuing discussion in the book-
trade as to the effect of film diisplay on the sale
of the book. That it has brought book titles
and famous stories to the attention of the
tremendous new group of potential readers is
unquestionable, but what has always been diffi-
cult to estimate is just how the bookseller could
best connect with this interest and with
what type of titles the connection was most
profitably made.
It has been often suggested that booksellers
should obtain concessions from the theaters and
have the books on sale as the performance was
over. One bookseller, who tried this, however,
found that the sales were negligible. Possibly
it was because the particular picture showing at
that time left people completely satisfied with
their knowledge of the plot and nts
development ; possibly, also, people coming
out were hurrying away to get home and.
also, had the common feeling that, having
spent what they had planned for the evening's
diversion, further expenditure was not in
order.
Booksellers have seemed to find that people
have been as likely to buy the .book next day as
they were at the very time the show was out.
It has also seemed as tho the bookseller who
runs a magazine stand and variety store and
picks up the less established type of book
readers, was more likely to have the movie fan
looking over his counters than the more digni-
fied and complete bookstore.
There is undoubtedly a great difference as to
the amount of demand that will follow from
the filming of titles that might at first seem to
have equal chance to produce sales. The film-
ing of "Treasure Island" undoubtedly produced
a wave of book buying thruout the country,
and yet on many other adventure stories only a
ripple of interest is aroused. The "Connecti-
cut Yankee in King Arthur's Court" brought
about a tremendous increase in sale, and these
instances could be multiplied.
Perhaps no title has ever had more effect on
sales than the production by Douglas Fairbanks
of "The Three Musketeers," and every pub-
lisher who had an edition or who could plan a
new edition has found that the film created a
great bookstore demand which has distributed
thousands of books, and the demand seems to
be spreading to every section.

College Text Books Again
By M. C. Godkin
FREDERICK DEANE HARTMAN'S
timely discussion in the College Text
Book Situation deserves widespread con-
sideration from publishers, dealers, and college
professors, as well as others who may be directly
interested in supplying or securing college
books.
That the present situation could be improved
will be generally conceded ; that conditions are
as bad as pictured by Mr. Hartman will be
questioned. There will be considerable dis-
sention from his point of view by American
publishers, dealers, and college men, but this is
natural inasmuch as his experience has been in
Canada. Nevertheless the situation here de-
mands analysis and remedial measures where
weakness is discovered.
To comment in detail on Mr. Hartman's state-
ments is unnecessary. In general it will suffice
to say that the ideas are suggestive if not alto-
gether practical from the American point of
view and that Mr. Hartman has recognized and
pointed out those local conditions which would
possibly interfere with their introduction. It
is extremely unlikely that any large educational
publisher, and Mr. Hartman agrees, or that pro-
fessors in any considerable numbers would hold
the opinions held by his characters. It would
seem that Canadian firms have not perfected
their educational institutions to any considerable
extent. Perhaps tne incentive is lacking.
The present day need is for:
(1) A uniform system for the distribution
of textbooks for examination.
(2) A method for consistently advising the
publisher of the texts adopted in each course
and an approximate number required each
semester. This information to be supplied some
time in advance of the time the texts will be
required.
(3) Close co-operation between faculty and
dealer, faculty and publisher and dealer and
publisher.
The promotion work must be left to the
publisher. It is unreasonable and futile to con-
sider otherwise. Reasons are manifold. There
are approximately 750 colleges. Allowing each
its special dealer (in actual practice there is
more than one dealer to a college) it will be
seen that if a dealer is to be properly equipped
to promote the sale of the educational publica-
tions each dealer will have to enlarge his staff
and stock sufficiently to handle the publications
of over 500 publishers. To know the respective
merits of each publisher's texts and their proper
place in the field of education would be a Her-
culean and impossible task, involving an ex-
penditure few dealers could assume. The
Educational Departments of the publishing
houses are eminently better fitted to ascertain
the suitability of their publications to college
needs, and to see that educators in those subjects
are kept in touch with new texts, than the
dealer.
That the prices of textbooks are now near
their highest level is due, of course to condi-
tions induced by the War. But War conditions
are slowly being corrected and in the near fu-
ture the trend of textbook prices should be
downward. But prices will continue to be too
high until educators realize that, for every book
received by them gratis for examination, and
not ultimately adopted, the cost is indirectly
added to the cost of the book in those schools
in which it is adopted. Assuming that a new
Latin text is announced and that 290 copies are
distributed free of charge, it means that the
cost of those copies must be added to the cost
of copies sold. It is not unusual for a teacher
to receive from ten to twenty copies of various
text-books, when the introduction of only one
can 'be made. In some cases the books are
thrust upon him, and in some cases he asks for
them. Multiplying that waste by about 750
colleges and considering the numerous depart-
ments in each college and the number of in-
structors in each department, the tremendous
waste can easily be calculated and it can be
seen why books are too high.
Free copies for the asking is one of those old
customs, or habits, which many professors still
adhere to and many publishers follow but
which in time will be discontinued to the bene-
fit of the student and professor. On the other
hand, for a teacher to be required to pay for
each text that he desires to consider would be
grossly unfair and impossible. The solution lies
in sending copies for examination billed and
subject to return or payment if not introduced.
If adopted the courtesy of a desk copy should
still hold good.
As for dealer co-operation let me state a
specific instance in which this important factor
was altogether lacking. A professor has signi-
fied his intention of using about 700 copies of
a text in September. The college book store
was notified in June. The publishing house
having been advised of the situation pressed the
bookstore for a confirmation of the order. The
order was finally received during the latter part
of August. Upon investigation it was found
that the bookstore had deliberately held the
order back in expectation of lower prices. Such
a procedure is inexcusable. It is unbusinesslike
348
The Publishers' Weekly
and places too heavy a burden upon the pub-
lisher. In such an instance a dealer would be
entitled to a rebate had lower prices been put
in force between the time the order was placed
and the date the books were needed by the col-
lege. In the above case the professor showed a
business-like and considerate manner; the
dealer, the reverse.
Except in rare instances the professor knows
what texts he will need long in advance of the
opening of school. He should be urged to place
orders as promptly as possible in order to give
the publisher ample time to fill requirements.
At the time the local dealer is advised the
publisher should be informed so that the matter
can promptly be followed up should any delay
ensue.
It should be remembered by both the dealer
and publisher that the average college professor
is not a business man, that he is extremely busy
with class work and administrative work and
that he should be relieved as much as possible
of the many distracting details which he is
not equipped to handle. The dealer, who is
close at hand and in close touch with conditions
should co-operate more closely with the pub-
lisher, keeping him informed of requirements
and changes promptly.
In closing it would be well to emphasize that
the function of the publisher, broadly speak-
ing, is to publish and promote the sale of books ;
the professor should examine and promptly
acknowledge receipt of books and place orders
as early as possible ; the dealer as a middle man
should co-operate more closely with the pub-
lisher for their mutual benefit.
Darwin in the Textbooks
WITH the general stirring of public inter-
est in education and a keener intellectual
curiosity among all classes, there has
come, also, a sharper questioning of what
goes into our text-books, especially by those
who fear that the youth may be directed into
wrong paths in the state-supported institutions
of learning. In Kentucky, the whole state has
been stirred up over a bill that would prohibit
the teaching of the theory of the evolution of
man in the university of Kentucky or any other
educational institution depending upon the state
for funds. The fight has been apparently
fanned by having William Jennings Bryan
brought into the arena for a two weeks' cam-
paign attack on evolution. In Mr. Bryan's
most widely circulated book, "The Prince of
Peace," there is a paragraph often quoted
Which slharply attacks Darwinism. Educators
thruout the country have seen in this an at-
tack on free discussion, and the charge arid
counter -charge are being printed in long col-
umns in Kentucky papers.
Book Expositions
THE French "Cercle de la Librairie" (book-
trade association) held an exhibit of holi-
day books in December. No books were
sold but those wishing to buy the books ex-
hibited were referred to their own booksellers.
In connection with this exhibit it is interesting
to read the address made on this subject by M.
P. Gillon at the Book Convention of 1917.
"However opinions may vary about the
value of exhibits," says M. Gillon, "they have
one unquestionable advantage; they stir up
healthy competition among the participants and
thus contribute strongly to professional pro-
gress. There can be no exhibit, however lim-
ited, that does not bring to tight some inno-
vations that suggest new ideas to the observers
and awaken in them the will for renewed ef-
fort.
"But exhibits have still another advantage,
by attracting the attention of people to the
carefully chosen objects, and by inducing them
to come and examine them at their leisure, they
accustom them to show their preferences and
to point out, after a fashion, to the producer the
path that he ought to follow. By its visits
and its purchases the public encourages and
stimulates the exhibitors and thus contributes
toward the progress of their industry. There-
fore exhibitions have been increasing during
late years. The tendency is away, however,
from the universal exhibits of former years,
toward special shows limited to one industry
or group of industries : as for instance, auto-
mobile shows, furniture exhibits, etc.
"The book industry itself has been the object
of many exhibitions, but as these included
everything having to do with books they called
for big halls and costly fixtures, which made
it impractical to hold new ones as often as were
needful. This inconvenience can perhaps be
avoided by arranging frequent special exhibits
in place of the general ones ; no commodity
lends itself better to this scheme than the book
which is all the time undergoing modifications
of various kinds on account of the numerous
collaborators who make contributions to its
production.
"Besides, in the book industry, only that part
having to do with machinery needs much room.
No palace is required to show specimens of
paper, of printing, of design, of photographs,
of bindings and stitchings. If, in addition,
these exhibits include talks given by specialists,
the general public will be educated in its taste,
and initiated, little by little into the various
characteristics of typographic art, learning to
distinguish the merits of a fine edition, and
taking pleasure individually in enriching its
library with works judiciously chosen."

Speakers Announced
MRS. ALICE DUER MILLER, author of
"Come Out of the Kitchen/' "The Charm
School" ''Beauty and the Bolshevist,'' "Ladies
Must Live,'' and other popular books, and
Charles Caldwell Dobie, author of "The
Blood-red Dawn" are the speakers for the
meeting of the Women's National Book Asso-
ciation, to be held at the Children's Book Shop,
Thursday evening, February i6th at 8 o'clock
sharp.
The Society of Bookmen
WITH a broad program of interest and an
inclusiveness in membership, this season
has seen the launching in London of
"The Society of Bookmen," which owes its
start largely to Hugh Walpole and to his be-
lief that all those having a common interest in
'books and book distribution should be better
acquainted and should confer occasionally on
the problems that are connected with the dis-
tribution of books.
The idea for this Society seems to have orig-
inated more or less at the meeting of the As-
sociated Booksellers last year in York, where
Hugh Walpole and Sidney Pawling of Heine-
mann's made speeches to the conference. Dur-
ing the fall, informal meetings of book people
were held, and the first general meeting was at
Ye Olde Cocke Tavern in Fleet Street on No-
vember 23rd, with G. A. E. Marshall in the
chair. At this meeting, neither Mr. Walpole,
nor Mr. Pawling, who had taken so much of
the initiative, were able to be present, but or-
ganization was completed along the lines sug-
gested by the Committee.
The name, "The Society of Bookmen" was
adopted after several suggestions had been
made. The purpose, as outlined in the pro-
gram, was stated to be "a society for the ad-
vancement of literature by the cooperation of
the various branches of the book-trade." It
was agreed that future meetings should be
held at the Howard de Walden Club, 16 Wey-
mouth Street. Portland Place, and the sub-
scription was set at one and a half guineas for
town members and one guinea for country
members. Tihose present at the opening meet-
ing were :
J. D. Beresford
H. Clifford
Sidney Dark.
Nigel de Grey.
Frank Denny.
John Drinkwater.
St. John Ervine.
Kenneth Kinninmont.
E. C. Kyte.
M. A. Marston.
W. B. Maxwell.
Leonard Parsons.
Cecil Palmer.
J. H. Quinn.
F. Richardson.
David Roy.
D. J Rice.
Frank Swinnerton.
Harold Shaylor.
Stanley Unwin.
J. G. Wilsoa
The general purposes of the Society and
the way the membership is to be developed
is seen in the thirteen people named at the first
meeting to be invited to join the Society :
Artist : William Nicholson.
Authors : Norman Davey, Hamilton Fyfe and
W. J. Tusser.
Booksellers : Basil Blackwood of Oxford, J.
M. Fisher of R. Grant & Sons, Edinburgh, and
H. B. Saxton of Nottingham.
Journalists : James Heddle of the Hulton
Press, James Bone of the Manchester Guardian
and W. Stewart of the Glasgow Herald.
Librarian : Stanley Jast of the Manchester
Public Library.
Publisher : H. Jackson of MacLehose Jack-
son & Company of Glasgow.
Literary Agents: Raymond Savage of Curtis
Brown Ltd. and John Clark.
The group is limited in membership in order
to get well under way, but it is prophesied
that it will grow as soon as the purpose
is fully appreciated.
Bookplate Exhibit
THE American Bookplate Society is now
holding its Seventh Annual Exhibition of
Contemporary Bookplates at the National Arts
Club, 15 Gramercy Park, New York. The ex-
hibit is open to the public each week day from
ten to six and Sunday from two to six, until
February 26th. After that time it will
be at various libraries and art museums
thruout the United States. The itinerary will
include Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Cleveland,
Pittsburgh, Toledo, Chicago, Kansas City, San
Francisco, Seattle, Spokane and Portland.
The present exhibit is the largest one of its
kind ever shown and comprises two hundred
and twenty-one designs by seventy-five artists;
Practically every civilized country is represent-
ed.
The jury of awards comprised Charles B.
Falls, president of the 'Guild of Free-Lance
Artists ; Frederick W. Goudy, the typographical
expert, and president of the American Institute
of Graphic Arts; and William Edgar Fisher,
bookplate designer of note and president of the
American Bookplate Society.
The judges awarded Certificates of Merit to
Frank G. House of London; to Carl S. Junge,
of Oak Park; to Edmund H. Garrett, of Bos-
ton; to A. G. Law Samson, of Edinburgh; to
Henry J. Haley, of London: and a special
award to Oscar T. Blackburn, of Minneapolis.
"A family without a library, a mind without
culture thru the printed page, must limp thru
life handicapped for everything but the most
menial occupations."

A notable English, bookseller, whose store is
in one of the most fashionable seaside places of
England, bemoaned the fact the other day that,
while bookselling had' not gone to the dogs, he
deeply regretted that people were not buying
books as they used to do in the "old days."
He instanced the fact by pointing out that, in
the case of one particularly good client, he
had noticed that at Christmas, for the pre-
vious years, his order had averaged something
like fifty dollars in value, but for this last holi-
day season his account totaled only five dolr
lars ! And this is not an isolated instance. It
does not mean that people don't want to buy
books. It means, here, that they can't buy
books, because the demands in the way of taxes,
school fees, living, etc., are almost ruinous.
These regular clients leave the bookshops with
great regret, and are looking forward to the
time when they may browse happily over the
bookshelves and contentedly buy as their taste
and spirit move >tihem, but until that time comes,
their bookless winter of sorrow must remain.
This mental condition has one very real ob-
vious danger, the habit may pass, and other and
more sensational expenditures may get a very
big look-in, as the saying goes*
Spring plans are growing apace, and there
is promise of much activity. Already prelimi-
nary lists are printed, and salesmen are on the
road with their bags. . The prospects are hope-
ful. Confidence is slowly coming back, and
when the public get into that condition of mind,
bookselling always benefits; not that last year
was bad — it was really good, taking all the bad
currents into consideration. Obviously, we are
a long way yet from the normal. There are
lots of good things coming, in the way of non-
fiction, especially. Unfortunately, a general
election is threatened, and that means propa-
ganda with an infernally large P, plenty of lit-
erature of the free kind, and everybody will be
full of speech and argument. Papers will in-
crease their sales, and books will suffer. Alas,
that it should be so. As soon as the date is
fixed — and L. G. is determined upon it — then
the important books will be held over until the
passionate time has passed, and it will be a ter-
rific election this time.
Our Anglophile Publishers
A LETTER in a fall number of the Literary
Review comments sharply on the attitude
of American publishers showing especial fav-
oritism towards English critics as follows :
"But if we are to have a national literature,
will some one kindly tell me in what way the
attitude of our university and college instruc-
tion contributes to it? The whole scholastic
caste in America seems hell bent on extermin-
ating American individuality. And again, if,
as is undeniable to any careful observer, the
mixture of races here is surely producing a
spoken language of our own and distinct from
any other, will some one kindly tell me why
our book publishers insist upon loading down
their pages with alien spelling? Why must
they spell color as if it were pronounced
'coloor,' and why do they thrust that foolish
and superfluous 'u' into every word where it
is not needed? This is the British orthography,
not the American. I have had more than one
fight with publishers over this in the case
of my own books. When I have asked why
they wished to disfigure their pages with a
foreign language, the reply was always the
same:
" 'Because English critics will not give a
favorable review to a book with American
spelling.'
"I guess that tells the story.
"Suppose these timid souls to be right and
English critics to be of this pristine state of
intellectual development, what of it ? Why are
favorable reviews by English critics more
vital to us than favorable reviews by Dutch,
Swiss, or Scandinavian critics? If this really
represents the slavish attitude of the American
publisher, I should fancy the excellent plea
you make for national individuality and ex-
pression might bump into some practical ob-
stacles. Yet I can't imagine that Messrs. An-
derson, Mencken, or Lewis or Miss Canfield
are the poorer in flesh, spirit, or purse because
some solemn guy in Fleet Street that knows
not their aims, subjects, nor language does
not like their work. If they are wise, they
thank God and go on."

At the Birth of a History
IX the very widespread discussion, which has
recently been taking place in our literary
papers, as to the functions of a critic, there
has been frequent emphasis on the constructive
value of criticism, many writers insisting that
literature could hardly be expected to flourish
without a body of intelligent criticism to check
and lead. That critics may be party to the very
first creative impulses which develop into liter-
ary successes, as well as being among those
present and alert when the product is complete,
is the indication from the only recently told
story of the beginning of the idea of "The Out-
line of History."
In the winter after the war, a group of men
met at dinner at the Reform Cluib in London.
Among them were Professor Henry Seidel
Canby, Editor of the Literary Review of the
New York Evening Post, and Professor John
W. Cunliffe of Columbia. The talk naturally
turned toward the Anglo-American relations
and of the importance of increasing mutual
understanding. Professor Canby turned to
H. G. Wells and said, "Why do you not
write for us, Mr. Wells, an Anglo-Saxon
history, covering all of the English-speaking
countries and commonwealths as one historical
theme, the subject is one of very present in-
terest and you of all people are the one that
could make it vital and important?"
"I might do that," said Mr. Wells, "but one
difficulty is that from these English-speaking
countries I must go back into the countries
from which this race sprang, back into Eur-
ope."
"Well, if that is necessary, then why not go
back into Europe and start from the racial
sources."
"But," said Wells, "if I go back that step, I
must go still further back to the very beginning
of man or to the beginning of life on this
planet."
"Very well, then, carry the thread -back to
the very beginning, the idea becomes more and
more interesting."
"If you do that," said Professor Cunliffe.
breaking in, "you will have a history that every
high school in the United States will use as a
textbook."
"How many high school students have you ?"
asked Wells.
"Perhaps 100,000."
"That is a good audience to begin on," said
Mr. Wells.
Three years later, when Professor Canby saw
Mr. Wells in this country, the author's greet-
ing was, "Well, Mr. Canby, you were one of
those that were in at the birth of 'The Outline
of History.' "

The Publishers' Weekly
Publishers' Advertising
IN the Printers' Ink of recent date, the Chi-
cago Tribune carried a full page advertise-
ment under the heading "Can Books Be
Sold ?" The text is interesting and runs as fol-
lows:
CAN BOOKS BE SOLD?
The average publisher issues scores of books each
year, scatters half-hearted support among them, and
hopes that one or more may catch the public fancy
and be bought in quantities. He does not sell his
ware_§_as other manufacturers do. He gambles on
issuing something that the public will take away
from him.
Each year he repeats this process, abandoning books
which showed promise in order to bring out new
failures.
After investigation, the Business Survey of the
Chicago Tribune has come to the conclusion that books
can be sold and that advertising can be an invaluable
aid in selling them. Book publishers have run an-
nouncements in the Tribune, but (except in the case
of subscription books) have never advertised their
wares in this market. But it can be done — profitably.
\^e invite discussion with any publisher who wishes
to substitute modern merchandising methods for the
lottery element in his business.
THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE
The World's Greatest Newspaper
Whether there will be many publishers who
come forward to accept the invitation is an-
other matter, but it can be prophesied that if
they do not it will not be from any aversion to
discussing new ideas. Publishers in their ad-
vertising are evolutionists rather than revolu-
tionists. Never a month goes by but an ad-
vertising man fresh from successes in the tal-
cum or cigarette fields looks over the book
world and makes a quick estimate of its short-
comings. Many obtain their opportunity to try
new ideas and some perhaps have found that
all that they prophesied of what could be done
with the public could not be quickly accom-
plished.
The publishers would perhaps have more con-
fidence in one who prophesied less and ap-
proached this really difficult task of book distri-
bution with a little more modesty. Few people
outside of the book-trade realize that the ad-
vertising appropriations on books are a much
larger percentage per dollar of sale than that
of almost any other nationally advertised com-
modity. Expenditures of from ten to fifteen
per-cent of the net wholesale receipts on a book
are common. On many other commodities we
hear of five per-cent appropriations, and three
per-cent is more common. Publishers looking
at their year's business may find that they have
had an advertising appropriation of five, six or
seven per-cent of their whole business, but an
analysis of this shows that this advertising has
been chiefly connected with new books, which
means that these titles have carried almost
double that rate. With this heavy percentage
is it possible for a metropolitan paper of high-
price lineage to make revolutionary increase in
the amount of returns?
The Chicago Tribune believes that, instead of
issuing books continuously, selling campaigns
should be concentrated on a few titles. But it
may be that by this literature would suffer and
only the books of greatest popular appeal could
be advertised at all. This would be more like
the condition in the movies where only the film
which can attract an audience at any cross street
is considered by the producers. The publish-
ers are perhaps not ready yet to make that their
rule. The Tribune also suggests that current
advertisements with too heavy percentage of
cost are merely announcements, and the argu-
ment would be that three or four hundred line
space at a dollar a line would be a little more
to the point. If any paper would be bold
enough to try that under guaranteed results it
might learn some of the things that book pub-
lishers long ago learned. Book distribution is
steadily improving, and many new types of pro-
motion are constantly being tried. Every new
suggestion should get a hearing, but those who
suddenly survey the field from the outside ought
to take a little time to walk round and read the
inscriptions on some of the gravestones of de-
parted hopes.
One final comment suggests itself, and that is
whether the Tribune, which is presumably try-
ing to sell space to the publishers, is itself
an efficient advertiser trying to merchandise
expensive space to a small group of established
firms. If one has a constructive idea to
present is it the 'best salesmanship to
pin the possibilities of selling it on
truculently worded and only partly thought
thru copy? When it comes to criticis-
ing advertising campaigns, we venture to
mark down this page ad. of the Chicago Tribune
as almost wasted space, not because it does not
contain some truth or because the publishers
are not keenly interested in new opportunities,
but because it states old arguments in so un-
convincing a form.
War Fiction Booklist
A REFERENCE book of current importance
to booksellers and libraries is the list en-
titled "European War Fiction in English and
Personal Narratives" compiled by Loleta I.
Dawson and Marion Davis Huntting, and. pub-
lished by F. W. Faxon & Company. It is a list
of 320 titles of fiction with author index and
supplementary list of personal narratives. The
notes give information needed as to the placing
of the story and narratives.

The 1922 Toy Fair
THE 1922 Toy Fair opened most auspicious-
ly at the Hotels Imperial and Breslin, New
York, on February 6th. It is a color-
ful exhibition, and includes every kind of toy
for children, together with books for little
people.
While there are not as many firms from the
book world represented as last year, still those
who are present have most attractive displays,
bringing to the front many new ideas for the
coming season.
Hurst and Company are showing books for
boys and girls for all ages attractively jacketed
in snappy style. Instead of the dull black and
white effects which have been so long in vogue
on children's books in this line, they are now
dressed in colorful and picturesque wrap-
pers, which should make good window and
counter displays. L. M. Levy is in attendance
in the Hotel Imperial, Room 244.
The Nourse Company, 114 East 23rd Street,
New York, is showing a very wide selection
of Occupational and Something-to-do Books, to-
gether with a most artistic line of Magic Paint
books. It is interesting to note that these
books carry a real idea for the improvement of
children's minds, and there are many items in
paper- folding, painting, and cut-outs which have
reflected the work and plans of kindergarteners.
There is an absence of books for careless
daubing, every one of them presents something
which will make the child appreciate form and
color. There are articles which will be of in-
terest to the boy as well as to the girl. One
of the outstanding titles on this list for older
girls is "Natalie, a Garden Scout" by Lillian
Elizabeth Roy. This book is one of a series
which has been endorsed by the Girl Scouts of
America. L. *G. Nourse is in charge, at Room
244, Hotel Imperial.
The E. M. Leavens Company, Inc., of Roch-
ester, N. Y., has a large display of toy books
and cut-outs. Among the items are new
titles in the Wearever Toy Books. These are
the Story of Peter Pan, with verses by M. O.
Munson. and The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Bea-
trix Potter. This series is made of very heavy,
untearable paper, with brightly colored illus-
trations and sells for 25 cents each. There are
also paper dolls, with bright and stylish ward-
robes. This company is showing the Col-
lins Clear Type Bibles and Testaments to-
gether with The Bijou Shakespeare, 6 volumes
bound in leather and boxed in a leather case.
They are all well bound volumes and theE. M.
Leavens Company are the sole agents for this
line in America. Miss H. J. Pfanstiehl is in
charge in Room 250, Hotel Imperial.
The Platt and Munk Co. of 118 East 25th
Street, New York, has one of the largest and
brightest collections of play books for children.
These include painting, stencil, and cut-outs,
the latter being particularly attractive inasmuch
as they are of a highly educational type,
flowers and birds in their true colors. These
are made in America and have to do with Amer-
ican natural history so that the child may know
at once thru play the names of the birds and
flowers. There is also to be found here a
"Bundle of Children's Stories," a set of ten
little books in a box which sells for 50 cents.
Arnold Munk is in charge in Room 245, Hotel
Imperial.
In Room 233 Hotel Imperial, Ben Spero is
in charge of the display of The Saalfield Pub-
lishing Company of Akron, Ohio. Among the
novelties shown is a Peter Rabbit Balloon Set.
This is the story of Peter told on six balloons
inclosed with the book. The Animal Fun Book
is another novelty, made like a slate with black
pages, to be written on with white crayon,
which is supplied. There is also a new set by
David Cory, "Little Indian Series" which is
complete in three volumes, and sells for $1.50.
The Whitman Publishing Company, of Ra-
cine, Wisconsin, is to be found in Room 317,
Hotel Imperial with S. E. Lowe in charge. It
is showing reprints of popular juveniles, car-
toons by Briggs and stationery for little chil-
dren with their favorite characters from story-
books printed in color at the top of each sheet.
Charles Conrath is looking after the display
of books for the littlest children which are
published by Sam'l Gabriel Sons and Com-
pany. These books, mostly paper and linen,
are in Room 315, Hotel Imperial.
The Satler Manufacturing Company of Bal-
timore, in Room 209, Hotel Imperial, is show-
ing a full line of educational games, combined
with books for small children. L. Goldie is
in charge.
At the Hotel Breslin in Rooms 610-612 is the
exhibit of M. A. Donohue and Company, of Chi-
cago, with William Hamersley in charge.
Charles E. Graham and Company, of New-
ark, N. J., is exhibiting at the Hotel Breslin,
Rooms 710-712, with C. E. Graham in charge.
All thru the exhibition one encounters a
spirit of optimism for the coming year, and
that added to the fact that nearly every pub-
lisher represented is quoting prices from twen-
ty-five to thirty-three and a third percent less
than those listed since the beginning of the war,
seems to point to a rosy "book year for 1922.
That there were no books of German manufac-
ture shown, is another interesting point, and
as a whole the books for the littlest ones are
made along educational lines, especially where
occupational items are concerned.
The Fair will close on March iibh.

•"GLAD TO HeAR \/
The Traveling Salesman
AN APPRECIATION
«VV7HEN I was a boy the traveling man
** seemed a personage no less important
than a visiting prince," says the Saturday Even-
ing Post. "When he came to our town with
his trunks and cases, the loafers about the
depot followed him to the general -store to share
in his distribution of cigars and listen to his
large talk oi distant places. I cannot remem-
ber whether his city clothes or suave superior-
ity inspired the greater awe. He had a great
fund of new stories and joined heartily in the
laughter they provoked. Arguments that had
been left hanging in the air against the day of
his arrival were settled for all time by his
decision, and his opinions concerning political
matters were accepted as the words of an or-
acle. When he had finished his business a
guard of honor accompanied him to the train
and he always waited 'for the last coach and
swung on as a young brakeman does.
"Salesmanship is no longer the happy-go-
lucky matter it was. The modern salesman is
an expert, a .student, a psychologist. His mis-
sion is to sell goods, but he accomplishes his
purpose by rendering service. He is a coun-
selor and friend. A postcard will bring him
from a distant city and, once arrived, he will
study a shop or store, take it apart to find the
rusty cogs, readjust it to fit a modern plan,
and be gone with an order for the machines or
devices or goods his house has for sale. He
is the handmaiden oif efficiency, an apostle of
pep, .bringing light into dark places and spread-
ing the gospel of progress.
"Now the salesman keeps fit. He needs a
level head. He is a responsible citizen, and
his place on the payroll depends upon sound
judgment and an unblemished character. He
is, oftentimes, Dhe ambassador of a great insti-
tution, dignified by the reputation of a firm
that counts honor its chief asset.
"Traveling men are good citizens. Few men
in other occupations are so well qualified for
self-government. The traveling man knows
his country. He understands its needs, its vir--
tues, its faults. He meets many men with
many ideas, reads much, debates much, and
from the random grist that comes to his mill
makes for himself a standard of citizenship
and a conception of good government that are
without bias or prejudice or the narrowness
that is the penalty of restricted horizons.
"A government by traveling men would be a
sensible government, without waste, delay, sub-
355
terfuge, or petty bickerings. America loses
much because so many of her best citizens are
so frequently disfranchised by their occupa-
tion."

SELLING ON COMMISSION
Publishers' Output in 1921
Continued from the "Annual Summary
Number."
OWING to an error in the make-up of our
Annual Summary Number, January 28th,
one-third of the list of publishers failed
to appear on page 193, which gave the total
number of books that each house had issued in
1921. The following should be considered as
a supplement. The publisher's totals include
every title which is sent to the office, can be
traced thru announcement lists or is printed on

Quebec Interested in Authorship Canadian Sales Tax Changes
TO devote a session to the consideration of
how best to encourage the development of
a native literature was the somewhat unique
experience of the members of the Quebec Leg-
islature last week and the question arises,
whether it can be paralleled in the legislative
halls of any other province or state on the con-
tinent.
The government :thru the Provincial Secre-
tary, Hon. Athanase David, introduced and
passed a bill providing for the establishment
for at least three years of annual literary and
scientific competition. To furnish prizes, a sum
of $5,000 is to be appropriated annually out of
the consolidated revenue fund of the province.
Prizes will be available for both English and
French literary works dealing with scientific or
other subjects, the first prize to be $2,500; the
second, $1,500, and the third, $500; the remain-
ing $500 to the grant to be used for traveling
and other expenses of the judges. The latter
are to be nine in number, including the professors
of literature in the universities of Laval, Mon-
treal and McGill and a representative of the
Royal Society of Canada, French section.
The preamble of the bill points out that it
is desirable to facilitate the publication of the
works of authors in the province and to draw
public attention to the literary and scientific
talents which remain unknown owing to un-
favorable circumstances. The belief is ex-
pressed that the founding of competitions would
further the efforts of authors, would aid men
of talent in making themselves known and
would stimulate by emulation the taste for lit-
erary and scientific work and the desire to pro-
mote them in Quebec.
At least half a dozen members of the Legis-
lature took part in the debate on the measure,
contributing speeches, which were not only ap-
preciative of the idea but were in themselves
evidences of the existence of literary culture
and a knowledge of literature among the legis-
lators. Hon. Mr. David, the father of the bill,
reviewed the birth and growth of literary effort
in Quebec and declared that such a measure
as he proposed was a recognition of the fact
that on the banks of the St. Lawrence a new
civilization Had been born, which was continu-
ing the traditions and the work of those which
had produced such men as Corneille and Ra-
cine on the one hand and of Shakespeare and
Byron on the other. He believed the race was
destined to be in the country for all time and
wished to build for the future. With this end
in view, the encouragement of literary effort
was necessary.
Other speakers emphasized the need of cul-
tivating the intellectual life of the people,
when so much effort wag being directed to the
development of the materialistic side.
IT is probable that some changes of interest
to the book-trade will be proposed at the next
session of Parliament in connection with the
sales tax. At present a manufacturer selling
to a wholesaler charges a sales tax of il/2 per
cent. ; a wholesaler selling; to a retailer or con-
sumer il/2 per cent.; a manufacturer selling to
a retailer or consumer, 3 per cent. On impor-
tations, a manufacturer or wholesaler pays 2l/2
per cent. ; a retailer or consumer, 4 per cent.
One change proposed is that sales by manu-
facturers to wholesalers for resale and sales by
wholesalers to other wholesalers for resale shall
be exempt and in place thereof that the tax
on sales by wholesalers to retailers or consum-
ers be raised to 3 per cent. It is believed that
this change would simplify the collection of the
tax and would also remove certain other dif-
ficulties wihiah have arisen.
Another change suggested has to do with the
tax on importations. When a retailer or con-
sumer imports, the tax is 4 per cent.. When
a manufacturer or wholesaler imports, the tax
is 2l/2 per cent., but the latter, when re-selling
to the retailer, must charge 3 per cent., thus
making a total of 5/4 per cent. It will prob-
ably be proposed that the two rates shall be
more nearly equalized.
Canadian Bookman Re-organize
THE Canadian Bookman, which has been in a
sense the organ of the Canadian Authors'
Association, has been taken over by a new com-
pany known as the Bookcraft Publishing Co.
Professor Bernard K. Sandwell of McGill Uni-
versity, who has been editor since the maga-
zine was established, is president of the new
company and continues as editor. Findlay I.
Weaver, editor and proprietor of the Canadian
Book-Trade Journal, becomes vice-president
and managing director. The Book-Trade Jour-
nal will be merged with the Bookman as a
trade section; circulating exclusively among
publishers and booksellers. Harold W. Thomp-
son is secretary-treasurer. The Canadian Book-
man, which was originally a quarterly, will
now be issued monthly.
THE GEORGE H. DORAN Co. is now repre-
sentative of the United Council for Missionary
Education of Great Britain, and for the Publi-
cation Department of The London Missionary
Society. This is the society which sent David
Livingstone to Africa. As publisher of the
Students Christian Movement, Doran will pub-
lish immediately, "The Pilgrim." by Professor
T. R. Glover, and these three additional titles,
"Psychology and the Christian Life," by Pym;
"The Universality of Christ," by Temple;
"The Divine Initiative," by Mackintosh.

BUY A BOOK A WEEK
1140 Broadway, N. Y.
Editor, PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY:
Apropos the discussion about "Buy a Book
A Week" Campaign :
Going home on the train last night I ran into
a neighbor of mine who is connected with the
Equitable Life Insurance Company. During
our conversation he said he had seem so many
advertisements about "Buy a Book a Week"
that he had decided this year to do it and since
the first of 1922 he has bought one book each
week (and one week he bought two). He
sa&d he hadn't time to read them yet but the
"family is having a good time."
I thought this would interest you so you
would know that the hammering about the
commercial value of this slogan is not detri-
mental to the plan. I believe in spite of the
argument about commercializing that this is the
proper slogan. Yours very truly,
GROSSET & DUNLAP,
P. L. Reed, Manager.

The Publishers' Weekly
Obituary Notes
LEMUEL W. BANGS
MANY readers of the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY
read with deep regret the obituary of the late
Lemuel W. Bangs in the January 7 issue. Lon-
don representative of Charles Scribner's Sons
for 38 years, he was better known to older
members of the trade than to the younger men,
LEMUEL W. BANGS
(Photograph taken several years ago)
but he was everywhere held in the most affec-
tionate regard. In the London Publishers' Cir-
cular there appeared the following letter from
Gerald Duckworth.
DEAR MR. MARSTON, — I am sure all publishers
and booksellers will hear with very deep regret
that Mr. Lemuel W. Bangs died on Thursday,
December isth, in his Sand year. He was born
on April 25th, 1839. Associated with Messrs.
Charles Scribner's Sons, New York, for over
50 years, he came to London and represented
the firm for 38 years. He was in active charge
except for the last three or four years when
Mr. Kingsley came over. I venture to send
this note as, besides knowing Mr. Bangs inti-
mately in business wfheti our relations were al-
ways of the most cordial, I used to see him
continually at the Garrick Club. He was elect-
ed a member in 1886, and his great friend and
chief, Mr. Charles Scribner, was elected in 1903.
He dined at the club most nights, sitting in-
variably at the same table and we always knew
the time at luncheon as, regularly as clockwork,
he appeared at 2 o'clock. He was much loved
by the members, and everybody called him "The
Senator." He wore a peculiar frock-coat made
to his own design by Poole, the celebrated tailor
of Savile Row, and he had never had the cut
altered since he first arrived in London. He
had a pretty taste in ties and wore always
some choice flower in his buttonhole. "The
Senator" had many good stories to tell his
friends, and used to present them with cig-
arettes the size of a cigar. I feel sure that all
those who met him both in business and in pri-
vate wi'll feel a great personality has left us.
May we all, as I know he would wish us, raise
our glasses to his memory. — Yours sincerely,
GERALD DUCKWORTH.
ARTHUR HOWARD ABENDROTH
ARTHUR HOWARD ABENDROTH, president of
the Fitzgerald Publishing Corporation, succes-
sors to Dick & Fitzgerald, New York, died on
January 3oth of heart failure. Mr. Abendroth
was for many years manager of the old com-
pany at 18 Ann street and after the death of
Harris B. Dick he organized the present corpo-
ration in which he was active until a few weeks
before his death. He was member of the
Union League and Players' Club and a Veteran
of the 7th Regiment.
JOHN BUTLER YEATS
JOHN BUTLER YEATS, painter and essayist,
father of William Butler Yeats, the Irish poet
and Jack B. Yeats, also an artist, died Feb-
ruary 4, in New York City. Mr. Yeats was
born in 1839 at Tullylish, Ireland. He was
graduated with honors from Trinity College,
Dublin, and a year after being admitted to the
bar gave up the law for art. He knew most of
the prominent Irishmen of the last forty years.
Since 1910 Mr. Yeats had made his home in this
country. He was a frequent contributor to
magazines of articles on literary and art
subjects.
JAMES B. PINKER
JAMES B. PINKER, literary and dramatic
agent, of Talbot House, London, died Febru-
ary 8 at the Hotel Biltmore of pneumonia de-
veloping from influenza. He arrived in the
city February 3 on the Aquitania. Mr. Pinker
was 58 years old. Among the authors whom
he had represented in this country was Henry
James, Joseph Conrad, John Galsworthy, Frank
Swinnerton and Compton Mackenzie. The
intimacy and helpfulness of his relations with
men like Joseph Conrad were such that not a
few great writers owe much of their public
success to him. With him at the time of his
death was his 17-year-old daughter, Eononie,
who crossed the ocean with him. Also sur-
viving are his wife and two sons, Eric and
Ralph Pinker, the former associated with his
father in business.

Representing G. P. Putnam's Sons
WM. F. HOBSON entered the publishing busi-
ness in 1913 with the American Tract Society,

American should, as list boy. In 1915 he entered
the retail department of G. P. Putnam's Sons,
achieving a reputation for courtesy and efficiency
among the best book-buyers . in the city. _ His
success in the retail department led to his ap-
pointment to the publishing staff as traveler in
the south, which he is still covering. His friends,
and they are legion, justly call him "Smiling

The Weekly Record of New Publications
Tihis list aims to be a complete and accurate record of American book publications.
Pamphlets will be included only if of special value. Publishers should send copies of all
books promptly for annotation and entry, and the receipt of advance copies insures record
simultaneous with publication. The annotations are descriptive, not critical; intended to
place not to judge the books. Pamphlet material and books of lesser trade interest are listed
in smaller type.
The entry is transcribed from title page when the book is sent for record. Prices are added except
whin not supplied by publisher or obtainable only an specific request. When not specified the binding it
cloth.
Imprint date is stated [or best available date, preferably copyright date, in bracket] only when it
differs from year of entry. Copyright date is stated only when it differs from imprint date: otherwise
simply "c." No ascertainable date is designated thus: [n._ d.].
Site* are indicated as follows: F. (folio: over 30 centimeters high); Q (4*0: under 30 cm.); O (8vo:
*S cm.); D. (iamo: ao cm.); S. (.i6mo: ijtft cm.); T. (a^mo: 15 cm.); Tt. (samo: 12^2 cm.); F/. (48*10:

NSOLD or returned books of the Henry
Huth collection, numbering 232 lots, will
be sold at Sotheby's in London February
Hitherto unpublished chapters from the
"Autobiography" of Mark Twain are now ap-
pearing in Harper's Magazine. Selections were
printed in the North American Review in 1906
and 1907 but the greater portion of the manu-
script remained unpublished.
Another important Dickens collection, that
of William Clyde Wilkins of Pittsburgh, rich
in first editions and Dickensiana of every de-
scription, will be sold at the Anderson Galler-
ies, February 13 and 14. Mr. Wilkins has
been one of the most enthusiastic and constant
of American Dickens collectors and the gath-
ering that he has made has never been sur-
passed in general interest.
The Harvard University Corporation has
passed a resolution opposing the book schedule
of the Fordney Tariff Bill and has forwarded
the same to Chairman Fordney. The resolu-
tion states that in the opinion of the corpora-
tion the proposal would "seriously handicap
American libraries, teachers and men of
science and would accomplish no useful pur-
pose commensurate with the harm done to
American scholarship."
The next booksale at the American Art
Galleries will be held on February 27 when
the collection of colonial and constitutional
laws from the library of Russell Benedict, jus-
tice of the supreme court of New York, will
be dispersed. This collection not only con-
tains some very rare lots of colonial New York
laws but of the other original thirteen
colonies as well. It is said to be one of the
most important collections of its kind in this
country.
Among the various commemorations of the
sixth centenary of Dante's death in Europe,
the most important was that held by the Lau-
rentian Library at Florence. Here were seven
rooms filled with the rarest known manu-
scripts, first and early editions, translations,
author's letters and manuscripts and personal
relics of the great Italian poet. This library
alone contains 180 early manuscripts of Dante's
writings or of books relating to him. To
these manuscripts and other material were
added loans from private collections and
other well-known libraries in Italy. Some
Dante scholars who went to Florence
especially to see this exhibition have written
with the greatest enthusiasm about it.
Not since Walter T. Wallace was gathering
his important library a decade ago and per-
sonally attending the auctions and doing his
own bidding, has another collector followed the
same course to the extent that William R. Hearst
is now doing. George G. Smith, it will be re-
membered, made Mr. Wallace pay very high
prices for many of his books. But times have
greatly changed since those days. There has
been no indication that the trade has resented
Mr*. Hearst's independent buying. Of course
Mr. Hearst has paid pretty well for some of
his books but this was because he is always
buying the best and when he wants a lot he is
quite willing to pay for it. Mr. Hearst seems
to enjoy the sport very much and he adds a
picturesque and dramatic element to the sales
he attends that makes him doubly welcome to
those who attend for the entertainment that
they can get out of them.
The Ruskin collection of Charles E. Good-
speed, the Boston rare book dealer, the result
of many years of painstaking search, consist-
ing of first and other editions of interest and
importance and a vast amount of Ruskiniana,
said to be the most extensive in this country
and probably not surpassed by any in England
with the possible exception of that belonging
to Sir Alexander Wedderburn, has been pre-
sented to the Wellesley College Libary. This
library has also received important gifts from
Prof. George Herbert Palmer of his Tennyson
and Browning collections consisting of first and
rare editions, complete in the case of Tenny-
son, and also in that of Robert and Elizabeth
Barrett Browning with the exception of "Pau-
line." Both include manuscripts of great value ;
in the one case, the still unpublished love let-
ters of Arthur Hallam to Emily Tennyson, and,
in the other, the original manuscript of "Au-
rora Leigh," corrected and interlined and anno-
tated so as to be almost undecipherable.

THE LEGACY OF GREECE
Edited by R. W. LIVINGSTONE ^t #3.25
A remarkable book written by a dozen of the world's greatest
classical scholars to show what modern civilization owes to
that of Greece and what it can still learn from her.
A BOOK OF WOMEN'S VERSE
<By J. C. SQUIRE ^ #3.75
"Poetry is poetry whoever writes it, but so far as my observation
goes, people do feel curiosity about women's contributions to
the arts. I felt this curiosity when I conceived this anthology:
and it would be stupid not to admit it." A delightful addition
to Mr. Squire's already long list of charming volumes.
WILTSHIRE ESSAYS
^By MAURICE HEWLETT "f^et #2.50
In a happy mood Mr. Hewlett says of these essays "they were
all written in my county. Some of them deal with the doings
of my neighbors as I view them from here ; some deal with
literature as I think about it here." Incidentally they make
good reading for anybody anywhere.
A MUSICAL PILGRIM'S PROGRESS
D. M. RORKE Ifft #2.25
Written with candour and without convention this book records
the psychological development of an amateur music lover.
A most attractive book for anyone to whom music means more
than sounding brass or tinkling cymbal.

PEACE CONFERENCE
A HISTORY OF THE PEACE
CONFERENCE
€dited by H. W. V. Temperley
5 vols. "T^et #44.50

ject and will in times to come be
accepted as the standard contem-
porary history. It is issued under
the auspices of the Institute of Inter-
national Affairs.
ORIENTAL
THE MUSIC OF INDIA
By Herbert A. Popley #2.00
An authoritative manual which leads
the reader by gradual steps to an
understanding of the standards by
which Indian music should be judged
and to the conviction that it is not
only an art but a difficult and intricate
one too.
RABINDRANATH TAGORE.
<By E. J. Thompson #1.15
A brief but satisfactory biography
throwing much light on the oriental
subtlety of Tagore's thought. It is
also the first study to be based on
the original Bengali texts.
A splendidly illustrated work describing the subject and signifi- SERINDIA
cance of these paintings. Those who have read George Dennis
Cities and Cemeteries of Etruria will find here the illustrations so
notably lacking in that work.
THE SECOND PERSON SINGULAR
AND OTHER ESSAYS
% ALICE MEYNELL #2.70
Miss Meynell, whose writing Meredith speaks of as "lucid in
its depth" contributes a new volume of critical studies dealing
with the petits maitres in literature for the discriminating reader.
'By Sir Aurel Stein 5 vols. #90.00
Officially this work is an account of
Sir Aurel Stein's great Central- Asian
expedition in the years 1906-9, but
actually it is an inexhaustible mine
for any one interested in Asian art,
archaeology, manners, customs and
early history. A work to marvel at
for its hundreds of beautiful plates
in color and collotype.

THE ENGLISH MADRIGAL COMPOSERS
'•By EDMUND HORACE FELLOWES $7.20

Our Travelers will tell you of these,
but perhaps you'd like advance
information.
(1) We have every reason to believe that the imposing life of
William De Morgan, which we shall publish in early April, will stand
out as the most important literary biography of the year. It is
charmingly illustrated from paintings, caricatures, reproductions
of letters, and delightfully informal photographs. The 150,000
readers of De Morgan's books will place this with pride on their
shelves beside his novels.
(2) In fiction we have "Patchwork/' a brilliant novel of post-war
days at Oxford. It is a sort of counterpart of Fitzgerald's and
Benet's point of view in relation to England. The London Observer
says "At last here is a novel which will live!" "Children of Trans-
gression" by G. Vere Taylor is a thrilling story of the South. Gage
has caught the spirit of the book in his four color jacket. "The
Secret Partner" by Elizabeth Frazer is the first novel of one of the
most popular writers on the staff of the Saturday Evening Post.
(3) Romain Holland's new love story, Pierre et Luce, is fiction of
such importance that we list it separately.
(4) Of singular timeliness also is a new book "Motion Pictures for
Community Needs." It will solve the problems which have con-
fronted so many churches and colleges in the selection and use of
pictures of the higher type for educational and community purposes.
(5) We have twenty-five other books ranging from biography to
a helpful book on Golf. Our Spring Catalogue, attractively gotten
up with illustrations, is now ready and we shall be glad to mail it
to you at your request.

MILLION-DOLLAR
SUITCASE
By ALICE MacGOWAN and PERRY NEWBERRY
With California very much in the public eye,
a good clean mystery novel set in present-day San

RUTH
COMFORT
MITCHELL
Her Chinese servant gave her a good luck medal, the symbol on which reads "Live
a Thousand Years and Never be Sick or Sorry." And what she says is, "I intend
to do just that !"
San Francisco was the birthplace of this cheerful novelist and most of her life has
been spent there or in Los Angeles. Periods in New York, in Europe and in
Mexico have intervened, but always she has returned to the California, than which
she thinks therei is no more beautiful spot on earth. She is married, the brink of
the Grand Canyon in Arizona having been the setting for her wedding.
Now she lives and writes in a home a thousand feet up in the foothills of the Santa
Cruz mountains, looking- over the Santa Clara Valley and away to San Francisco
Bay. There is not a level inch on the ranch anywhere— all buildings hang
precariously onto ledges which have been blasted out for them. "We raise
everything we eat but the staple groceries and the filet mignon," she says.
Her writing is done in a little work house high on the cliff. When/ not writing
she is usually in the saddle, tearing over the hills, with a varied assortment of
favorite dogs accompanying her.
JANE JOURNEYS ON is Ruth Comfort Mitchell's new novel.
Like her previous popular story, "Play the Game," it is a brisk
and joyous tale, which will appeal to all wiho enjoy the humor and
sentiment of youth.
The heroine is a delight and her journeyings are of surprising
variety. From her small village home she goes to New York, to
make her way by her talent for writing. The success she meets
with, the ipeople she encounters, her adventures when she journeys
out to Chicago and down to Mexico, the final climax to her wan-
derings in which a charming young man is involved, all go to
make this a novel of surpassing qualities of entertainment.

FOUNDED BY F. LEYPOLDT

"I hold every man a debtor to his profession,
from the tvhich, as men of course do seek to
receive countenance and profit, so ought they of
duty to endeavor themselves, by way of amends,
to be a help and ornament thereunto." — BACON.
Truth in Advertising
THE week of Washington's birthday, is
as appropriate a time for the emphasis
on Truth, as Franklin's birthday is for an
emphasis on Thrift, and that section of the
Advertising Clubs of America which is de-
voted to the truth movement in advertising
and which is represented by the Better Business
Bureaus in thirty-seven of the larger cities of
the country will hold a convention at the quar-
ters of the Advertising Qub of St. Louis.
Nothing that the advertising organizations of
the country have ever done has been more fun-
damentally important to the growth of adver-
tising and more nobly conceived in its future
effect. The men who have planted the seed
and nurtured the idea deserve all possible
credit. The business men who have supported
these Better Business Bureaus in the laborious
and expensive work of bettering advertising
conditions deserve all credit.
In the book field there has been no special
organization for examining into advertising
conditions, but the need of high standards in
this respect is thoroly appreciated. Retail
booksellers who have any conception of their
responsibility do not now advertise books as
being marked down from purely nominal list
prices. One line of chain stores that used to
display regularly "$4 dictionaries for $1.50" now
does a good business in these dictionaries at
$1.50 without the other mention. The old
habit of reprinting subscription sets and using
as a list price for advertising, the figure which
was attached to the original and more care-
ful printing has largely subsided. Some old
de luxe sets may be advertised from $3.50 to
$i per volume, but this would be the actual
truth of the case and not an artificial figure.
List prices, when they are correct list
prices, are the accurate way of indicat-
ing editions. There was a time when
reprint fiction was often advertised as
being "fiction of the regular $1.50 char-
acter for 75c." This was in a way the
truth, but the deceptive character of the state-
ment has caused it to be dropped. Reprint fic-
tion is a good buy at 75c without suggesting
that it is the same thing as the new current
fiction.
Publishers' figures as to the total editions are
often questioned as not in accordance with
standards of advertising practice. Not always
is the total number of sales used in advertising,
but when used there is usually little reason to
question their accuracy. Any publisher who
would print false figures in an endeavor to in-
dicate the popularity of his book is doing his
own business a poor service. The fact that
the public has a very hazy idea as to what
constitutes a good sale of a book leads a good
many publishers to indicate the progress of
sales by editions, and in this there often seems
to be an effort to carry the impression of larger
sales than are actually the case. Just what
an edition is, no one can really say. If, on a
popular book, the number of times the book is
actually put back on the press is stated in the
advertising, this is an item of real value in in-
dicating the public demand.
Publishers are also questioned for book de-
scriptions used on some jackets. In this field,
•however, we are getting into the very debat-
able ground of taste. The publisher trying to
indicate the character of his book to an un-
known audience which may read the jacket can-
not always word his brief statement so that
it will give the correct impression to every
reader. The common word, "iblurb," has come
into frequent use because of over-statements
that have often occurred in the case of new
books, and healthy ridicule is the best cure for
this type of over-statement when it occurs.
The book-trade should give all interest and
support to advertisers who are emphasizing
the importance of Truth in Advertising, and
everyone who wishes to make his profession a
gainer from his work should do his part to
keep book-trade methods above criticism.
Stating Prices Right
SINCE printing an editorial on honest ad-
vertising in books, we have had called to
our attention the circular sent out in con-
nection with the selling of the Review of Re-
views plus "The Outline of History" at $6.50.
The people in the trade can interpret this
circular. Can the average reader understand
it? The circular reads in part:
436
"An offer we can never make again — 'The
Outline of History' at one-third the original
price. Think of it, a discount of sixty-seven
percent from the price that 250,000 people have
already paid . . . Voluntarily Wells slashed
his royalties eighty-five percent and entered
into a contract with the Review of Reviervs
by which a new edition — exactly the same as
the first except that it is in one volume and
has his own revisions — can 'be offered to you
at a fraction of the price of the first . . .
Wells' marvelous history at the price of $3.50
and a year's subscription to the Reviezv of Re-
views at its regular price of $4, both $7.50 in
monthly payments or $6.50 in cash. ... By a
fortunate arrangement we can offer it in full
leather at a lower price than cloth binding
would have cost you a year ago, $9.50 in cash,
when taken with the Review of Reviews.
It may be that it is fair to refer to the one
volume Wells as the same work as the original
and therefore tc> make direct price comparisons.
This, however, is questionable. To offer the
two at $7.50 with $5 given as the price of the
'history and $250 as the price of the magazine
would be more in accordance with what the
trade believes the offer to be. On that basis it
is a good purchase, but apparently not spec-
tacular enough to lend itself to a campaign.
Book Price Levels
WE have from time to time gathered
data as to the comparative price levels
of different types of books, but, owing
to the variance between books, it has been
difficult to get a general view of 'the whole
situation, which it is important to know in
order that publishers may estimate how much
more capital they are likely to have locked up
on a certain volume of business, that retailers
may know how much more investment they
will have to have to carry a certain number
of thousands of volumes, and that libraries may
know how much increased appropriation they
may need in order to get given supplies of
books.
Another view of this subject has been sug-
gested by looking over a list of books that was
made out five years ago to Serve as a model
home library. The list was made and priced
m June, 1917, and included h&me books of
reference, histories, books on general science,
music, nature books, poetry, classics, novels,
current fiction and children's books — in all, 166
volumes. This total does not include n titles
The Publishers' Weekly
that have gone out of print, rather less per-
haps than would have been expected. The
total retail price of -the books at that time
was $234; the present price would be $348, a
49% increase. The highest increases were on
the imported series of classics. Eliminating
these, the rate of increase was 45%. There
was no book on the entire list that had not
changed, the smallest increases being 20%
and the highest 100%. The great majority,
however, ran along about 40% which kept
the average in the 40*5. Some wider investi-
gation might be made, but this may serve as
a fairly accurate estimate.
This places books at the beginning of 1922
on a scale lower than most commodities as
compared witih five years ago and lower in
percentage of increase than most of the
component materials that make up the book.
Paper is now about 60% higher than it was,
binding cloth 70% higher, electrotyping wages
150% up and printers' wages double.

The Educational Renaissance and the Book Publisher*
Joy Elmer Morgan, Washington, D. C.
Editor of the Journal of the National Education Association
EDUCATION today is being influenced by
important tendencies both within and with-
out the school that are prophetic of a
greatly enlarged usefulness for the publisher
of books. Taken collectively as phenomena of
this unique period of world life these educa-
tional tendencies prophesy a marked eleva-
tion of the intellectual life of the great mass
of mankind. The early advocates of universal
education could hardly have foreseen the
world sweep of the democratic impulse of
today and the currents in education which
have sprung from that impulse.
These currents may be grouped under
three heads. In the first place, the science of
education is making rapid progress. Educa-
tional method is passing thru a period of
change in the direction of larger initiative
and individuality for the learner. In the
second place, there is developing within the
group of educational workers a heightened
sense of professional obligation which is
finding expression in the growth of pro-
fessional organizations and in indications
that such organizations will be the policy-
determining agencies of the future. In the
third place, there are unmistakable signs of
a new faith in education on the part of peo-
ple generally, not only in America but thru-
out the world.
In its relation to security and progress, the
science of education is no less important
than compulsory attendance and the ma-
chinery of administration. It is not enough
that every child be kept in school during the
formative period of his life. It is not enough
that he be assured a mature and competent
teacher. The education of every boy and
girl must be so conducted as to preserve and
develop those elements of personality that
are especially valuable in a democratic social
structure. The ultimate measure of class-
room procedure is the sort of social, fitness
it develops. This fact is being recognized to-
day as never before. The school of the future
will be essentially democratic m its relation-
ships. The publishers of textbooks have al-
ready felt this tendency toward democracy
in course of study and school management.
It has significant consequences also for the
publisher of general books because its whole
aim is to make of the child a thinking citizen
— to fix habits of intelligent living which
will carry over into adult life.
* Address delivered before the National Association
of Book Publishers at their Second Annual Luncheon.
The democratic attitude toward the learner
has given rise to the use of scientific tests
and measurements, to pupil participation in
school government, to the source method, the
project method, the socialized recitation, and
to the wider use of books and libraries. The
significance of these newer practices is
emphasized when one considers the enormous
size of the Nation's school factory.
There are in the United States 28,000,000
children of school age. In order to handle
these great numbers of children effectively
they must be grouped in classes and grades
and given prescribed courses of study. Ways
of making this classification on a scientific
basis are being developed, but the fact re-
mains that millions of children must be put
thru a common mould. If this passing
thru a common mould is not to crush
initiative, the child must be surrounded with
materials that will provoke study and investi-
gation on his own account. To do just this
is the function of books. The growing recog-
nition of this function is found in resolutions
of education associations urging the develop-
ment of libraries, in special equipment in new
school buildings, in an increasing demand
for trained librarians, and in legislation look-
ing to state-wide systems of libraries fostered
by State and Federal aid.
There is no single public educational activ-
ity that in proportion to its cost has greater
undeveloped possibilities than the free public
library. Not over twenty per cent of the
citizens of the United States now have access
to a free library. Perhaps less than one per
cent actually uses public libraries. But a
new day is dawning. Tihe development of the
ideal of a state-wide system, using the
county as the unit of trained service, is
putting new life into the library movement.
Training within the school has never pointed
so directly toward the use of the public li-
brary. There is a growing conviction among
educational leaders that the school is only the
beginning — that public libraries must be de-
veloped to perpetuate the fine spirit and the
high ideals which schools exist to create. Fifty
years ago the schools were relatively as poor
and inadequate as public libraries are today —
compulsory attendance was fighting for recog-
nition. Today there is not a state in the Union
that does not have compulsory attendance.
Fifty years from now there will not be a state
in the Union that will not require and aid
every community to maintain a library.

The Publishers' Weekly
Along with these developments in the science
of education has grown up a new spirit in tht
teaching force of the Nation. This awakened
sense of professional responsibility among
educational workers will encourage reading
both among them and the people with whom
they come in contact. I need not dwell upon
the oft repeated statement that the teacher
is not a reader. I need not even give the
facts that have been cited to prove that state-
ment. It is far more to our purpose to an-
alyze briefly the social composition of the
teaching population of the United States and
then to ask why we should expect high
standards of intellectual life from a group of
men and women so composed. There are
something over 600,000 public school teachers
in the United States. If these teachers were
to form in line side by side, the line would
be 300 miles long. If they were arranged in
this line in the order of age and one were to
start with the youngest teacher, he would
pass by tens of thousands of teachers only
sixteen, seventeen, or eighteen years old and
would traverse one fourth of the entire thr«e
hundred miles before he would come to the
first teacher who had passed the age of
twenty-one.
If the line were to form again upon the
basis of attendance at school, one would pass
30,000 teadhers before reaching the first
individual who has had more than an eighth-
grade education; he would pass 150,000 teach-
ers before reaching the first individual whose
education amounted to more than two years of
high-school work; he would have passed 480,-
ooo teachers before he reached the first
teacher with two years of training after
graduation from high school. With 480,000 —
or four-fifths — of our public school teachers
comparatively untrained, need we be surprised
that they have not developed 'the reading habit
either in themselves or in the children they
have taught?
This would be indeed a dark picture if
there were not another side. That other side
is found in professional organization. Pro-
fessional organizations among teachers began
as forums for the discussion of the problems
of education. The part played by these dis-
cussions has not diminished during the past
few years — indeed it has increased — but pro-
fessional organizations have passed into a
new period of development which we may call
the period of action and democratic control.
The old associations were composed chiefly of
persons who attended the meetings or who de-
sired to have their publications. The new
associations are composed of all teachers who
elect representatives to attend the meetings.
The meetings of representatives in the Na-
tional Association and in the associations of
the more progressive States frame patriotic
programs of educational development.
As a result of their representative character
and of the programs for which they stand,
these associations have had enormous mem-
bership growth in recent years. For example,
before 1918 active membership in the National
Education Association remained under ten
thousand ; on January I, 1921 it was over 48,-
ooo; on January I, 1922 it was over 83,000;
new memberships are now coming in at the
rate of over a thousand a day. A similar
growth may be found among the State asso-
ciations. The Pennsylvania association num-
bered 18,000 in 1918; 34,000 in 1920; and 40,-
ooo in 1921. The Texas association num-
bered 3000 in 1918; 8000 in 1920; and 14,000
in 1921.
Backed by these large and growing member-
ships both State and National associations
have been able to accomplish much for the
advancement of education. The laws which
have been added to the statute books of the
States in consequence of organized pro-
fessional effort are numbered in scores. The
support which has rallied to the legislative
program of the National Education Associa-
tion will stand out in educational history as
marking the beginning of a new epoch in this
republic. That program in its naked outline
consists of two main propositions : First, the
creation of a Federal Department of Educa-
tion with a Secretary in the President's Cab-
inet and second, Federal subventions to the
States to promote certain phases of education
which are fundamental to good citizenship in
both State and Nation. A year ago, the suc-
cess of this program might have been doubted ;
to doubt it now would be to doubt the very
tides. From every corner of the Nation there
has come such a wave of popular support that
if legislation does not pass this Congress,
there is certain to be elected in 1922 a Con-
gress that will say with the great British
statesman Lord Fisher, "That nation which
employs the best teachers with the highest pay
and as a part of the best school system will
be the best governed and therefore the
greatest Nation."
A professional spirit which can realize
such programs as these and which can sweep
one-fourth of the teachers of the Nation into
summer schools — as it did during the sum-
mer of 1921 — must mean broader interests
and a higher intellectual level among teach-
ers generally. This in turn must react upon
the communities where the teachers work and
upon the children who daily come under their
inspiration and direction.
The third point — the growing public demand
February 18, 1922
439
for education — is really implied in the other
two. They are all merely evidences of a
renaissance in education which is stirring
society to its depths — a renaissance which
must rally to its support the thinking men
and women of the civilized world. In America
there are evidences of this new Taith on every
hand. It finds expression in the great crowds
of students that have overflowed the high
schools of every city in the land. It is re-
vealed by enrolments that have exceeded the
capacities of colleges and universites. It is
made plain by the increased space which
newspapers and magazines are giving educa-
tion and by a vigor of editorial emphasis and
constructive criticism unknown in days gone
by. The new faith in education is con-
vincingly evident in the determination of the
best citizens that in spite of the present eco-
nomic stress, the work of public education
shall not be crippled for want of funds. The
new faith in education is registered in the
halls of Congress and in the attitude of the
administration at Washington. Education is
now a world power — recognized, respected,
and relied upon. The conference at Washing-
ton is itself a memorial to the influence of
free public education and it may well be that
the greatest achievement of the conference is
not written in any of the treaties or pacfs
that it has produced, but in the awakening
consciousness of the leaders of the nations
that the world can go no faster and no
further than is made possible by the education
of the great mass of mankind. In that edu-
cation the printed page is certain to play a
larger and larger part. May I congratulate
the publishers of America upon the command-
ing opportunity that is theirs to carry on the
good work.

Booksellers Act on Tariff
THAT the booksellers are in earnest in their
endeavor to do everything possible to
prevent the enactment in its present form
of the book schedules in the Fordney tariff is
indicated by the letter which has been sent out
by President Eugene L. Herr of the American
Booksellers' Association to its 500 members.
Mr. Herr makes the suggestion that every
bookseller "should not only write to Washington
but, more important still, should see that the
local paper discusses the situation in the fol-
lowing letter to the trade :
Dear Fellow-Bookseller:
Word has just reached us that the book
schedules in the Fordney Tariff Bill (H. R.
7456), will come up before the committee for
final action between March 1st and 15th.
Whatever can be done to alleviate the pro-
posed schedules must be done in the next two
weeks.
The position of the book-trade has been pre-
sented by Charles E. Butler in his state-
ment last September, and before the Senate
Finance Committee in December by John
McCrae, Charles E. Lauriat, Jr., and Dr.
M. L. Raney.
Your attention is directed to an article ap-
pearing in the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY of Feb-
ruary nth, and the Bookseller and Stationer of
February I5th entitled, "Act Now for a Just
Tariff on Books" and to the seven points out-
lined wherein the bill should be revised.
It is suggested that booksellers all over the
country endeavor to have articles or editorials
appear in local papers, presenting these points
and that copies of these articles be forwarded
to the chairmen of the Senate and House Com-
mittees. Also that you write the member of
Congress from your district and the Senators
from your state protesting against the proposed
duties and regulations.
Will you not co-operate with the book-trade
of the country in endeavoring to correct the
proposed (backward step in tariff legislation by
acting promptly on these suggestions?
Cordially yours,
Eugene L. Herr, President.
Charles E. Butler, treasurer of Brentano's,
and chairman of the Board of Trade of the
American Booksellers' Association, makes the
following comment on the situation. Bren-
tano's business, covering as it does old books,
foreign books, and general publishing, gives
Mr. Butler's comment especial weight.
New York City, February I4th, 1022.
Editor, PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY :
The all-important matter of interest to the
book world is, what is Congress going to do
with the Fordney Tariff Bill, especially that
part relating to books ? There can be no doubt
as to the harmful effect its passage, as now
proposed, would have on books, reading and
education. No tariff whatever should be placed
on foreign books or books twenty years old,
and it were better if the tariff was not increased
on current English books. The gain to the
United States in money by this taxation would
be so insignificant, that surely it would not
warrant the inflicting of all the harm its en-
forcement would bring about.
The worst evil of the bill is the American
Valuation plan of assessing the duty. It is
intolerable, impossible and unjust, for it com-
pels the public to pay double duty or more as
it may please the appraiser to assess — we have
challenged the members of the Committee to
refute this statement, and we repeat it. It
cannot be done. Consider the poor appraiser
upon whom the impossible task is imposed. Con-
sider also the everlasting war he will be en-
gaged in with the importer, thus converting
the calm serenity of the Custom House hereto-
fore prevailing, into a seething cauldron of a
perpetual fight for price elevation and for
price reduction.
Charles E. Butler, Chairman.
The following changes in the book schedules
are those urgently recommended:
1. The duty on all books bound or unbound
except such as may be otherwise provided for
should not be more than 20% ad valorem
based on cost price to importer in country of
exportation (Par. 1310.)
2. Children's toy books should be protected
under toys (Par. 1414) with clarified descrip-
tion of what constitutes a toy book and the
40% duty as proposed.
3. Books should be specifically exempted
from American Valuation appraisement (Sec.
402) as being impractical to apply and unneces-
sary for' adequate protection of this American
industry.
4. Books over 20 years old should be re-
instated on the Free List. (Par. 1529.)
5. Books in foreign languages should be re-
instated on the Free List. (Par. 1529.)
6. Libraries and educational institutions
should be given the same duty free privilege as
before. That is "all textbooks used in schools
and educational institutions" (Par. 1530) and
"not to exceed two in any one invoice for lib-
raries." (Par. .'53 1.)
7. The libraries of families from other
countries should be duty free without the limita-
tion of $250. (Par. 1532.)

The Successful Rental Library
By Marion Humble
Part II — Continued (from February 4th)
Records of Borrowers
Two records must be kept in the rental
library to enable the librarian to know what
books are out, who has them, where to send
for them if overdue; a Record of Borrowers
and a Record of Books Borrowed. These re-
cords are best kept on cards. A registration
card is needed for each borrower, showing
name, address, business address if any, date
of application for rental privilege, and amount
of deposit, if one is required, telephone num-
ber if useful. These cards should be arranged
alphabetically by last name of borrower. Ad-
dresses should be kept up-to-date. Note of
fines unpaid and books not returned can be
placed on this permanent record, and a bor-
rower's privileges withdrawn if he abuses
them.
Records of Books Borrowed
The record of books demands a card made
for each book, showing author, title, copy num-
ber, accession number if used. The card should
be ruled in three columns in which are to be
entered : ( i ) name of borrower, (2) date taken,
(3) amount paid on return.
The third entry is made when the book is
returned. A 4x6" or 5x8" card is practicable.
These cards are kept in a file "Books In" until
wanted. When a borrower selects a book and
brings it to the desk for record, the card for
that book as taken from the file, the entries of
name of borrower and date taken made, the
date taken is entered in the book for the bor-
rower's information, and the card is placed in
a second file, "Books Out." When the book is
returned, the card is found in this file, the
amount paid entered on the card, the card re-
turned to the "Books In" file, and the book re-
turned to the shelves.
The file of cards "Books In" should be kept
in alphabetical arrangement by title (or by
author if this seems easier to the librarian) .
The file of cards "Books Out" is best kept in
chronological arrangement by date of month;
as each book returned is stamped with- date of
borrowing its card is easily found. Books
longest out will automatically come to the front
of the file, and notices can be sent when the
books are overdue. Date guides can be ob-
tained from office supply firms. "Books Out"
cards may be kept alphabetically if preferred
tho there is advantage in the chronological sys-
tem when watching for or following up over-
due books.
An "Overdue" guide in the file should indi-
cate cards for which notices have been sent.
Overdue notices should be sent out each day,
for books that have been out a month. These
should be postcard notices, worded somewhat
as follows:

If no answer is received to this notice, a per-
sonal letter with enclosed bill should be sent at
the end of a week, the letter reading somewhat
as follows:
Dear Sir:
We are enclosing a statement showing
your account with the rental library to

the book borrowed five weeks ago,
(name of book)
or you may have decided that you would
like to keep it.
Enclosed also is a list of some of the

in looking over these books when con-
venient.
Very truly yours,
The enclosed statement should include:

Borrowers' Obligation
The required amounts of payment, whether
deposits or payments per week or per day, and
the matter of overdue notices should be ex-
plained to a borrower taking his first book.
There should be no "rules and regulations" to
irritate borrowers ; the taking of books must be
made an altogether pleasant and agreeable oper-
ation. If the date of taking a book is always
placed in the book, and it is understood by the
borrower, he can always tell how long he has
had the book and how much he owes. The
postcard reminder and letter will call attention
to this, if kept over a month, and offers him the
alternative of sending a check for the book if he
does not want to return it.
A statement about rates can be printed on the
flap of the paper wrapper. Borrowers dislike
to be bothered with cards or booklets of rules
and the wrapper is the simplest means of carry-
ing this information with every book.
Such instructions as "Please do not remove
this cover," "Members are not allowed to lend
books except to their own family," "Books with
pages torn cannot be returned and must be paid
for" are unnecessary if the borrower under-
stands in the beginning that he is responsible for
books taken. The borrowing and buying of
books must be made as attractive as possible.
The thought of rules and penalties and prohi-
bitions should be left out.
The Used Books
One of the best means of insuring care of
books iby borrowers is to rejuvenate the shelves
continuously by withdrawing all shabby vol-
umes, by cleaning with soft eraser or art gum
those that are slightly soiled but good for fur-
ther use,, and by steadily adding new volumes.
Books in good condition are apt to receive better
treatment than torn and dirty ones. The li-
brarian should mend torn pages and backs with
mending tissue and book cloth strips.
Books withdrawn still have value, and means
should be found to supply a market for them.
A $2.00 novel which has been bought for $1.30
or charged to the Rental Library by the book
department on a basis allowing for handling
expense, should ordSnarily circulate for four
months at least. If it is rented for eighty per
cent of this time at three cents a day, the
receipts are about $3.00. This can then be sold
to the sales department of the shop at about
twenty cents, bringing its income up to $3.20
and a margin over cost of from $1.70 to $1.00.
From this of course the expenses of the library
are to be deducted before a net profit can be
arrived at. ,•
The sales department can sell the book at
prices va'ying according to the book's condi-
tion. Often books are sold at three for a dol-
lar. Some stores sell them up to $1.50 each,
when in very good condition, and used but a
few times. They can be placed on sale in the
store, or sold to public libraries, which are glad
to get additional copies of popular books at low
cost.
Administration
The Librarian.
The librarian should be as keen a salesman
as there is in the store — with a first hand knowl-
edge of most of the books in the library, with a
readiness to talk interestingly about all of them
and about reviewers' opinions of them. She
must be up-to-date daily with local advertise-
ments and reviews, and be ready to meet the
demand that these notices; create. Newspaper and
magazine notices of books send people into the
bookstores, and the librarian should have read
the notice before the patron arrives at the store.
She must also know former books by the authors
included in the rental collection, and announce-
ments of books they are writing. And she
ought to talk books so effectively that she will
February 18, 1922
443
not only increase book borrowing, but book
buying.
Arrangement of Library.
Rental books should be grouped by subject
on the shelves, with plainly printed labels:
Romance, Adventure, Western Stories, Detec-
tive Stories, Short Stories, etc. The librarian
should be able to recommend books in groups,
that is, to be ready always with suggestion of a
book to read next, if a borrower wants the sug-
gestion. She should sense also the borrower
who does not relish advice.
A bulletin board with mounted book covers,
book reviews, newspaper advertisements, brief
lists by subject or author, will help people in
selection. A table of lists and publishers' an-
nouncements will interest borrowers and con-
tribute to sales as well as to library patronage.
If the brief description found on the jacket of
a book is pasted inside it will greatly help the
customers in their selections.
If there is room, a couple of tables and some
chairs will add to the enjoyment of the library
by borrowers who are not in a hurry and who
want to look over several books before choos-
ing.
Salaries.
One librarian can probably carry the work at
the start of the library, if someone can be de-
tailed from the sales force for her relief at
lunch hour, and if she can make occasional use
of the office force for typing of lists, letters,
etc. Such extra help supplied by the store
should be charged to the library, as should the
librarian's salary. TMs salary should be equal
to that of the other competent salesmen in the
store, because the librarian must be a salesman.
A good person to take charge of a rental library
can sometimes be obtained from the local public
library and taught the commercial end of book
distribution. Rental libraries managed in the
spare time of a salesman covering other duties
are seldom a great success. It is better to get
solidly behind the library until it is active
enough to justify a full time librarian to carry
on the work independently.
Publicity
The library will need newspaper advertising
when started. An attractive ad placed in the
daily papers which are read by the desired
clientele, will bring best results. A printed slip
placed in store packages sent out during the
week previous to opening will be effective. A
large lettered sign hung over the library alcove
will be useful as a guide. A neat glass sign
should always be in the window with the other
displays. A bright paper wrapper for the
books will advertise the library wherever they
are carried. Many libraries run a small adver-
tisement in local papers once a week, Saturday
morning for week-end borrowers, or the Sunday
edition for general promotion. Such ads and
the repetition of the printed slip in store pack-
ages every few months are good investments
for the circulating library.
Rental library borrowers are usually steady
customers when the habit is established, but
there must be a constant adding to the list of
users if the volume of business is to be main-
tained and increased. No month should pass
without some newly conceived promotion. The
librarian thru analysis of the sources of her
trade will be able to make good suggestions for
the best directions for new canvass. Women
are usually heaviest borrowers, as public librar-
ies also show. Business women and girls in
offices find it easy to drop in at noon for books.
Women in apartments and hotels where house-
keeping problems are simpler, of ten have more
time for reading than householders. Estab-
lished borrowers are often glad to suggest
names of possible new subscribers.
It will be found that by meeting with ade-
quate supply the demand for the most talked of
books of the moment, new readers will become
interested in the promptness of the rental
library service. The rental library should
not be considered as a competitor to the
public library, but supplementary to it.
Xo public library is able to meet adequately
from its yearly budget the entire new book in-
terest of its community. The public library is
glad to see other agencies at work in the field of
book promotion.
The Buying of Books
«¥ HAVE always felt that it was commend-
1 ab1.e to buy books," says Dr. Carl S. Patton,
pastor of the First Congregational Church in
Los Angeles, writing in the February Atlantic.
"I grew up with a liking for reading my own
books instead of someone else's. This prefer-
ence I still have. I have my books strictly for
use. I turn down the pages. I even tear out a
few, if I need them. Books that I really use
are much the worse for wear when I get
through with them. I always mark them.
When I read one of them a second time, which
I seldom do, I generally can't remember what I
meant by the marks I put in it the first time.
But it gives you a feeling of having dug deep
into the book, and it intensifies your sense of
the ownership of it, to make big black marks
down the side of it as you read. So I have
always felt that one should buy as many books
as possible. They are not like food, of which
one should buy only as much as one can con-
sume at the moment. Nor like clothes, of
which a wise man will buy as few and as cheap
as he can get by with. But of books he should
'btiv all he can."

The Publishers' Weekly
English Book-trade News
(From Our London Correspondent)
CESSATION ! In other words, there has
come a calm, as is always the case, after
the holiday season. As, of course, is quite
understood, this doesn't mean that nothing is
happening. There is a good deal happening.
Most publishers and booksellers are taking
stock, shutting up for the day, and then look-
ing for the profit. On the whole, we think it
will be found, not as it was in pre-war days,
surely, but still there is a profit. There were
naturally many grumbles that business was
bad, that no one bought books nowadays, that
ends would not meet, and that some other kind
of merchandise for profit must be sought.
Granted that a man has to work hard to make
money in these times — but why not? It's al-
ways good to make effort, for it stimulates
invention. And no one has the right to be
idle in these days of reconstruction. It is our
duty to double the output, even tho the return
is, in proportion, much less.
You can not have a war on the recent scale
and expect to escape the consequences in a
couple of years. It is next to amazing that
things are so quickly putting themselves right.
Look at book-making. Let us not be impulsive
in our optimism, but let us face the facts
squarely. Practically every item in the making
of a book has "eased." It is agreed that the
difference is hardly enough to begin to make
lower published prices, yet some publishers
have commenced doing so, but only in very
special lines. If the trend in materials is still
downward in 1922, by the fall, there ought
to be some lowering worth noticing. We still
maintain, however, that books are not, by any
means, too dear. As before said, the book
buying public, whatever that may mean, has
been badly educated in this direction. Com-
petition has given them books at half (or less
than half) their real market value — hence the
persistent kicks that books are too dear. And,
in spite of the absolute facts that during the
period of very high costs of production it
was impossible to publish books at pre-war
figures, there were thousands of people who
said that not only were books unfairly high
priced but that publishers and booksellers
were profiteers. This was said, too, by those
who knew better.
Even so, people are buying books and buy-
ing well. If this keeps up, and is stimulated,
or maintained, by intelligent propaganda thru
trade, literary and other kindred organizations,
there is no reason with the advent of lower
published prices why there should not be a
new boom, and a big one to boot, in books.
But there must be a coordinated policy, a team
effort which will make for such a compre-
hensive push forward as to bring home to the
public that a book is in its way as essential
to life as a loaf of bread.
There is to be a British Empire Exhibi-
tion in 1923 in London. The King of Eng-
land is to be patron, and big efforts will be
made to bring it to a tremendous success.
The British government and Dominion and
Colonial Governments will take part. There
is to be a section devoted to the education,
science and art of the British Empire, in
which books will be an important feature.
A guarantee fund of $5,000,000 is being
raised. The government is giving $5oo>ooo.
English publishers are being asked to take
some share in this guarantee.
On removing a loose cloth cover from a
folio Bible, which he purchased at an auction
for 2s. a Baintree resident (writes a Star
correspondent) found it was bound in red
morocco bearing eight panels and the ciphers
of William and Mary, and the date 1685.
A Bible was presented from Oxford to
William and Mary, and it is believed this is
the identical one. The British Museum au-
thorities do not possess a copy of that reign,
and have asked that the Bible be presented to
the national collection.
Booklegging
«pOOKLEGGING for revenue is the latest
Dgame," says a New York correspondent
of the Philadelphia Public Ledger. 'What is
'booklegging?' It is the business of selling the
kind of a book one wants to read, despite the
interdictions of those who would be our moral
guardians. We all know that tootlegging' is
the business of selling that which is prescribed,
but the 'bookleggers' are quite a different sort in
that they have wares, the attempted banning of
which is still an open question
"Much of this hidden literature comes from
abroad. Right now the literary cult is eagerly
awaiting the running of the United States cus-
toms blockade by 'Ulysses,' the work of James
Joyce, which has recently been printed in Paris.
It began as a serial in one of our magazines
and was stopped. Now it comes overseas com-
plete as a book, and its *booklegging' price is
bound to be high, very high'.'
"Some years ago the son of a Wall street
financier got behind 'Casanova's Memoirs,' and
it was secretly done in twelve volumes from a
Pittsburgh printery. Exactly 750 sets were
made, selling to a select list at $125 each. It
was handled en camera, and its 'booklegging'
price today is sky high. Some have been sold
at one grand ($1000.)
February 18, 1922

"George Moore, the Englishman, has written
a number of books that are most difficult to
obtain in America. His 'Story Teller's Holi-
day' is considered cheap at $50 from a 'book-
legger.' His 'Heloise and Abelard' in two vol-
umes and 'Avowals' command fancy prices, and
are also hard to get hold of. Schnitzler's 'Casa-
nova's Homecoming' and 'Reigen' are among
the 'bookleggers' best sellers. Other books that
have 'booklegger' value include James Gibson
Huneker's 'Painted Veils,' 'The Epigrams
of Martial,' and James Branch Cabell's 'Jur-
gen,' 'The Art of Love,' written by
a Boston physician, which suddenly van-
ished when the demand for it was at its height,
is now being extensively 'booklegged' in the
metropolis.
"A movement is on for the formation of an
organization to be known as the Society for
the Suppression of Oppression in Literature.
The claim is advanced that some of the books
one cannot get are held away from readers for
as little as one or two pages, which come un-
der the official ban. Notwithstanding the po-
sition of those who would open the doors and
relieve the pressure exerted by the 'bookleggers,'
the fact remains that much that has been pro-
scribed is really unfit for general consumption.''
International Book Fair
IT is planned to hold at Florence, Italy, in
the Spring of 1922 a great fair for the ex-
hibition and sale of books, under the auspices
of the "Associazione Editoriale Libraria Ital-
iana" and with the cooperation of the "Fon-
dazione Leonardo per la Cultura Italiana,"
•writes W. Roderick Dorsey, American consul
at Florence, Italy.
The purposes of the fair are to promote
among nations a reciprocal and direct knowl-
edge of books ; to exhibit to foreigners Italian
typographical and editorial activities ; to fa-
cilitate international trade in books and the ex-
change of translations; to restore the definite
national character of the typographic art and
of the decoration of books; to honor the book
in every way as the most powerful and most
rapdd vehicle of culture and humanity.
The sale of books is the principal and most
immediate purpose of this Fair in which the
publishers and creators in all countries are in-
vited to exhibit productions.
Books exhibited may be sold on condition
that another copy be immediately substituted.
Exhibits will be grouped according to country.
In addition to books, publishers will have the
privilege of displaying music, maps ant] ar-
ticles used for educational purposes.
In connection with this Fair there will also
be an exhibit of antiquities, reserved for deal-
ers in ancient books who wish to place precious
manuscripts and other rare works on sale. Tn
this section the offerings must be confined to
objects of real bibliographic importance.
There will also be several special exhibits,
among which will be the following:
(a) — Illustrations and decorations of books
;n which will figure volumes printed, and il-
lustrated by any system, as well as original
drawings designed as illustrations for books ;
(b)— Bindings, with a historic and retro-
spective division. In the modern section the
participation will be encouraged not only of
'binders who offer artistic specimens, but also
of workmen and publishers who present plainer
types of bindings;
(c) — Posters, with competitions and prizes.
There will also be a section in which will be
displayed various types of advertising, applic-
able to the commerce and industry of books,
even if not artistic or for placing on walls;
(d) — An exhibition of popular culture where
there will be demonstrated what is being done
in Italy and by others of the more civilized and
advanced countries to spread culture and espe-
cially popular culture by means of books; that
is by popular libraries, reading clubs, societies
and other institutions for the printing and dif-
fusion of good books, technical material for
libraries, et cetera.
(e) — A display of bibliographic material of
the various nations.
(f) — An industrial exhibit restricted to the
technical progress that has been made in recent
years in machinery and in the various processes
of writing and printing.
This Fair, which is said to be the first of
its kind ever organized in Italy, will be housed
in the historic Pitti Palace and will be under
the patronage of His Majesty the King and of
all the high officers of State, including foreign
Ambassadors. There will be a General Com-
mittee composed of persons conspicuous in lit-
erature, journalism, politics, and other walks
of life.
The active work of organization and direction
will be in the hands of an Executive Committee,
and American firms interested in making ex-
hibits should communicate with Grande Uffi-
ciale Enrico Bemporad, President Comitate Ex-
ecutive Fiera Internazionale del Libro, at No. 7
via Proconsolo, Florence.
The Moliere Tercentenary
"""THE Moliere tercentenary thruout the United

The Publishers' Weekly
Over the Book Counter
By Irving Allen
IF a publisher must be an expert on the tastes
and interests of the reading public, no less
must the clerk in the retail store have a keen
understanding of a book buyer's nature, if he is
to co-operate with the publisher, and bring the
booksellir"- business to the level of a profes-
sion. Too little attention has been paid as yet
in this country to the training of people for
the retail book business. I like to think of the
bookman as having a singularly important influ-
ence in the community, equal to that of the
librarian or the teacher, because he has the
opportunity of guiding reading tastes, stimulat-
ing already curious minds, and he labors under
no constraint save his own good will and judg-
ment. There are a few such persons scattered
at rare intervals thruout the nation, or gathered
in our metropolitan centers.
When the book clerk offers to his prospective
buyer "The Triumph of the Egg" with the re-
mark that it is a bunch of good essays, or ex-
plains that "Erik Dorn" is similar to "The
Sheik," store, publisher, clerk, and customer all
suffer. And ^these are not exceptional examples
of the crudities to be found in many retail
stores or book departments. The selection and
purchase of a book is a psychological process
so complex that such efforts at selling are not
to be wondered at. An analysis of the many
important factors of the book buying process
could not be attempted in a short space, but
some aspects may be indicated.
Too often the popular methods of retail sales-
manship fail in a book store. The little methods
of supposed cleverness (courtesy and friend-
liness are necessary in any human relation) are
inapplicable, because individual tastes and the
conceit of them are powerful elements in the
book buyer's mind. The browser, the looker,
the half -educated, the "read everything" are all
to be handled skillfully and individually. The
real bookseller has distinct but not dogmatic
tastes, and tries to discover his customer's in-
terests, not to impose his own upon the other.
No one expects the generaPbookman to have
read all the titles he has on sale, but it does
not take long to acquire a reasonable familiar-
ity with books, and this combined with sin-
cerity and an avoidance of wooden phrases
like "wonderful" and "worth-while" will bring
a customer's confidence and business.
There are whole groups of potential book-
buyer,s. among the intellectually eager who will
swell the profits of any store once their read-
ing is made to seem important and its necessity
a challenge to the intelligence. No one has a
greater opportunity than the person in a book
store who actually meets the customer.
The publisher has screamed in the advertise-
ments, the reviewer has issued his pronuncia-
miento, and all America is talking about it, yet
it is the clerk who guides the buyer to the book,
and whether the customer can't see anything in
it, or in turn becomes an enthusiast matters
little to the book trade if the clerk 'has been
sincere and individual in his opinions.
New Class in Bookselling
Ellen L. Osgood, salesmanship coordinator,
is holding classes in bookselling at Haaren High
School, New York. The course consists of eight
lessons including every branch of the work.
Her topics include "What books are sold in
lxx>k shops and department stores?" "How a
hook is made" (the work of the author, manu-
facturer, editors, and illustrators), "Publishers'
selling methods" (catalogs, advance notices
and salesmen), "How are books purchased?"
(selling points, reprints and suggestive selling),
"History of bookmaking." Among the students
attending these classes are salespeople from the
various department stores in New York, and
from many of the specialized shops.

Books Carried During Smile Week
DURING National Smile Week, February
5-12, a week inaugurated by Judge to build
up the national morale, many booksellers car-
ried the following books prominently displayed
because they were recommended by the mem-
bers of the Smile Week Committee mentioned
below as the funniest books they had ever read :

yer," "Huckleberry Finn," "Tramp Abroad,"
"Life on the Mississippi," "Innocents Abroad,"
''Sketches."
James J. Davis, Secretary of Labor — "Don
Quixote." "Gulliver's Travels," "Gil Bias," "In-
Roldsby Legendjs," "Two Men in a Tub," "The

E. M. Statler, President, Statler Hotels Co.,
Inc. — "The Gentle Grafter," "Many Cargoes/

Typography by Mail
COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY has increased
its activity in the teaching of typography by
planning a home study course, directed by
James D. Gabler. This course begins for its
spring term on February 8th and covers the
same material that is given in the University
course in typography, but is available for those
who cannot get to the class room. A student
of the home study course is allowed a full calen-
dar year in which to complete it and is not
bound to any set schedule of recitation or study.
The standard of work demanded is in no way
lower than the work demanded for those in
residence, tho it does not carry academic credit.
Work is tested through correspondence and
given all possible attention. There is no re-
quirement as to previous academic work be-
fore initiation into the home study course, but
prospective students can write to the Director of
Extension Teaching as to the needs. There are
thirty lessons, and the course plans to teach the
origin, history and development ol printing and
the allied lines, instruction in the preparation of
manuscripts, proof-reading, selection of types,
ink, paper, illustrations, preparation of dummies
and visualization of finished work.
Still a Book a Week
AN attractive advertisement of Frederick
Loeser & Company's book department in
the Brooklyn Eagle had the heading :
A BOOK A WEEK!
You Will Find This a Methodical Scheme to
Keep Up the River of Literature
Flowing From Busy Pens.
It is very interesting to find! how much con-
tinuing value there has come of last year's
emphasis on "B"uy A Book A Week." Many
dealers report that there are customers con-
scientiously keeping up this practice, not so
much; from the dealer's reiteration in his copy
as perhaps from the fact that the idea was
sound and fitted in with people's diversional
and cultural needs. The original intention of
the slogan was to emphasize the need of a
habit of book buying rather than a spasmodic
book buying interest.

THE CRITICAL PROCESS
"The ideal critic is perhaps much like a

the presence of heat within him without radiat-

The thermos bottle seems to me
A symbol far too still and static
To stand for critic artistry,
Musical, lit'ry or dramatic.
The man of critical intent,
Bent on becoming a first-rater,
Should boast a head ebullient
And perky as a percolator;
A head where inner warmth abounds,
Bubbling with notions self-contained ;
Brewing, from raw creative grounds,
A product clarified and strained.
Like percolators, more or less,
Your criticaster should react :
When critics blurb, spill, effervesce,
Doubt not their little domes are cracked.

The Censorship of Rabelais
THE suit against John G. Kidd of Stewart
Kidd Company of Cincinnati for the sale
of Rabelais which was reported last week
has caused widespread comment and editorials.
Mr. Kidd now reports that he will not fight the
case but has agreed with the District Attorney
to discontinue the sale of such books as "De-
cameron" and Rabelais, and has also agreed to
destroy the plates and stock on hand of the edi-
tion of "Decameron" which his firm published.
The Rabelais which had been sold was not pub-
lished by Stewart Kidd but by Donohue, an
edition widely handled in the book-trade. The
case was brought by Mr. Angiers, the Post Of-
fice Inspector and Western representative of the
Society for the Suppression of Vice. Stewart
Kidd Company was brought into court two
years ago in connection with the publishing of
a thin paper edition of "Decameron" which
contained the full translation of all the stories.
At that time their attorney stated for them that
they would not sell the "Decameron" thru the
mails again, and this they have ceased to do,
nor have they advertised, for business on the
"Decameron." They have had letters asking
for the book but refused to quote. As the
books have been withdrawn from sale and the
'store has taken from its shelves all classics of
this kind, the case does not appear to be likely
to become the occasion for a test decision which
is much needed. The high court in New York
State gave the opinion some years ago that in
the case of classics of this kind the selling
method was to be judged and not the book it-
self which had its own recognition as litera-
ture.

THE article by Joy Elmer Morgan printed

fore the annual meeting in January of the Na-
tional Association of Book Publishers and made
a marked impression for its vision and proph-
ecies. Some conception of what is going on in
the larger aspects of educational progress is a
necessary part of the equipment of a publisher
today and of the general knowledge of the book-
sellers. Writing from the headquarters of the
American Library Association after reading the
text of this speech, Sarah C. N. Bogle, the As-
sistant Secretary said:
"I wish every library school student could

Women as Writers
WILLIAM Ellsworth writes in a recent
number of the New York Times Book
Review:
"One-quarter of all the professional writers
of the country live here in New York and
Brooklyn — to be exact, 461 out of 1,897. I do
not include journalists or the many college pro-
fessors who write occasional books, but only
those who are called authors in Who's Who.
Probably comparatively few of them were born
here, for if a writer's locale is of the mountain
or the sea or the plain, then mountain, sea or
plain must have been the environment of the
formative years. Bret Harte continued to
write California mining stories long after he
had put that State behind him.
"Of these 461 New York authors — to give a
little more statistical information — 302 are men
and 159 are women, and it is likely that the
proportion holds good thruout the country.
About two-thirds of our authors are men and
one-third women ; and yet, in spite of this
great number of women, the American Acad-
emy— which President Thomas of Bryn Mawr
has effectively dubbed the American Men's
Academy — has so far considered only Julia
Ward Howe as worthy of a seat in its assem-
blage. Publishers and editors have known for
years that in one branch of literature — and a
very important one, imaginative literature —
women are doing as notable work as men, and
have been doing it for at least a generation;
and I would go so far as to say that if you
place side by side the names of American
men and women who are doing today the best
work that is being done in fiction, the women
will outnumber the men."
De Luxe Books in Paris
THE Paris newspaper Humanite says of
the modern tendency in finely illustrated
'books :
"There are a great many de luxe books
printed nowadays. A number of the newly
rich have gone in for book collecting and their
desires in this direction have to be satisfied in
some way or other. From this comes an over-
production of books printed on beautiful paper,
in types more or less elegant or fantastic or
unusual, and illustrated by engravings. Rarely
does all this make for an artistic whole such
as is found in the books of the fifteenth cen-
tury or, to give more modern examples, in
those of William Morris or Cobden Sander-
son.
"Nevertheless illustrators have learned some-
thing in these last few years. The greater part
of them avoid imitations of paintings and try
to make prints that will harmonize typographi-
cally with the text. They are much inspired
'by models from the past, often adding thereto
amusing individual fancy. Notable examples
of this are the compositions of Daragnes for
the editions of the "Banderole," and those of
Le Breton for the "Cyrano de Bergerac" of
Rostand.
"But the deep spiritual tie between the art-
ist and the author, the interpretation of a text
that one has loved and tenderly dwelt on, re-
mains a very rare thing, and it is this that
makes one appreciate especially the beautiful
drawings of Bernard Naudin for Diderot's
"Neveu de Rameau." With a sense of humor
that recalls the old English caricaturists, with
a fine and witty pencil, Bernard Naudin has
reproduced all the wit of the text, the pleas-
ant spirit of mocking observation of the eight-
eenth century, sharp and good-natured, fear-
less, but not brutal, always full of elegant sub-
tilities."

stanzas which will probably suggest comparison
with "Three Soldiers."
THE AUTHORS' CLUB announced at its thirty-
ninth annual meeting January 26 that a large
majority of its 260 members had voted that the
•book of the most enduring value to American
literature published during 1921 was "The Col-
lected Poems of Edwin Arlington Robinson."
E. PHILLIPS OPPEXHEIM, author of over sev-
enty volumes of fiction, has just reached this
country or. the Adriatic, his last visit hav-
ing been ten years ago. Mr. Oppenheim is ac-
companied by his wife, who was Miss Elise
Hopkins of Chelsea, Mass. He announces that
he will not attempt any lectures, but his public
appearances will be restricted to those on sev-
eral golf courses. His publishers are announc-
ing that his next volume will be called "The
Great Prince Shan" and that it will deal with
world politics in 1934.
WILLIAM JEAN LAVARRE, of Richmond, Vir-
ginia, has returned from his third trip on the
Mazaruni river British Guiana, and has
brought back with him the largest diamond
ever discovered in North or South America, a
thirty and one quarter caret stone, known as the
Kurupung diamond. Mr. Lavarre will go back
to the diamond country this month for further
exploration of the mining fields. His first book,
"Up the Mazaruni for Diamonds," describing
his initial trip in 1917 is published by the Mar-
shall Jones Company, which will have a new
book from him this spring. It will be called
"Drumonds." Mr. Lavarre, so the report goes,
has 'had to have police protection lor his jewel.
THERE is a report from Germany, says the
New York Times, that the Crown Prince will
publish a book this year. In fact, if the first
book is successful, it is said that he has mate-
rial for a number of books collected. The
Crown Prince's first book will deal with his
memoirs from birth to the outbreak of the
World War. The second book covers the pe-
riod from the World War to Wieringen. Vol-
ume III will cover everything since then and
reminiscently before. The Crown Prince's first
book will be published by the Cotta Publishing
Company of Stuttgart, which gained interna-
tional notoriety as the publishers of Bismarck's
third volume. TMs first book will be published
in the late Spring, probably in April.
LITERARY ITALY is still laughing over the
pep of Antonio Quattrini, who invented the "J.
P. Morgan Award," gave it to himself and made
his book sell as a curiosity. In August 1921
the Italian Press was requested to publish the
following announcement : "The James Pierpont
Morgan Foundation, which suspended its award
of prizes for the period of the war, has now re-
opened its offices in Paris, and will assign, with-
in the next three months, its annual prize for
the best production of Italian literature." The
prize was announced as 50,000 lire and authors
were invited to stibmit manuscripts to a certain
Berthier in Paris. Late in November, it was
stated that the J. P. Morgan prize had been
awarded to the Venetian writer, Antonio De-
mande Quattrind for his novel "The Slave of
Beauty." And bundles of the novel began to
arrive C. O. D at the booksellers' shops. Who
Mr. Quattrini is is still unknown. "The Slave
of Beauty" seems to be the work of an illiter-
ate, it is said, quite ignorant of spelling and
syntax. Newspapers have received frequent
letters from him threatening suits for slander,
denouncing his critics and defending "The Slave
of Beauty." Curio hunters are buying the book,
and the booksellers who refused the bundles of
'books C. O. ft. are very much disgusted.

The Publishers' Weekly
Book Trade Salaries in France
THE National Committee of the "Federation
of the Book" in France concerned itself
mainly, during 1921 with an attempt to estab-
lish some relation between salaries and the cost
of living. In the more important parts of the
country such as Paris, Lyon, Marseilles, Lille,
Bordeaux, etc., an agreement was made that
salaries should be raised tri-monthly to meet
the rise in the coat of living. Conversely, they
should be lowered if the prices of necessities
went down. This agreement was not in force,
however, in most sections of France where the
matter had to be thrashed out amid often much
bitterness on both sides.
Valuable Book Lost
DICHARD LE GALLIENNE has lost a
^^- valuable copy of a first London edition
(1882) of Oscar Wilde's "Pbems," inscribed
by the author. The book was lost in a taxi
near the Grand Central station or in the wait-
ing room there, on November 19. Mr. Le Gal-
lienne hopes that any bookseller to whom the
book is offered for sale will communicate with
him in care of The PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY.

of England said to have been written before
she was twenty years of age.
It has been a long time since there has been
an exhibition at the New York Public Library
that has attracted so much attention as
the Roosevelt Memorial Exhibition is now do-
ing. The exhibit, which begins at the right of
the entrance, attempts to do two things. Com-
mencing with Colonel Roosevelt's ancestors and
tracing life thru boyhood, college days, and
western experiences, it attempts to show his
development as a citizen, giving his best efforts
to civic, state and national affairs. This is
shown in a series of cases arranged chrono-
logically on the north and part of the south
side of the large exhibition room. The re-
maining cases are planned to show Colonel
Roosevelt as a writer of books, a naturalist and
a home lover, and to illustrate the literature
which has grown up around his name. The up«
right standards contain additional portraits, car-
toons, and other pictures illustrating the ad-
joining cases. The books, manuscripts and il-
lustrative material come from two great Roose-
velt collections : that of the New York Public
Library and of the Roosevelt Memorial Asso-
ciation. A number of items have been loaned
by Mrs. Roosevelt, members of the Roosevelt
family, and others.
The Dickens Collection of books, manu-
scripts, letters and relics formed by the late
Dr. R. T. Jupp of London sold at the Ander-
son Galleries February I and 2 was extraordi-
narily successful, the 491 lots bringing $32,-
508.75. Private collectors played an important
part buying the larger portion of the rarer
items, and, in many cases, paying record prices
for them. Some of the more important lots
and the prices which they brought were the fol-
lowing : Grip the Raven, the original of Grip
in "Barnaby Rudge" stuffed and mounted in a
glass case, $310; Frith's oil painting of Dolly
Varden, in a gilt frame, $525 ; Dickens's memo-
randum book containing suggestions for plots,
names, etc., used in his novels, $1,800; the first
issue of the first edition of "The Christmas
Carol," 1843, $105 ; the excessively rare trial
issue of the same book, 1844, $300; "David Cop-
perfield," in parts, 1850, $255 ; "Dombey and
Son," in parts, 1848, $145; Forster's "Life of
Dickens," 3 vols. extended to 7, extra-illustrated
with about 250 autograph letters and portraits
together with more than 250 views etc., bound
in levant, London, 1872-74, $1,000; the Gatfs
Hill Gazette, nine numbers, two supplements
and four letters $425 ; "Great Expectations," 3
vols., original plum-colored cloth, London, 1861,
$455 ; A. L. S. of Dickens asking Macready per-
mission to dedicate "Nicholas Nickleby" to him,
Sept. 21, 1839, $480; "Oliver Twist," in parts,
•London, 1845-46, $380; "Pickwick Papers," in
parts, 1836-37, first issue with the rare points,
$3.50O; autograph manuscript of Dickens re-
lating to his creation of the character of Pick-
wick, $2,200; "Sketches by Boz," in original
parts, London, 1837-39, the scarcest of Dickens's
publications in parts, $975; the autograph let-
ter containing the famous tribute of Stevenson
to Dickens after reading "The Christmas
Carol," $1150; "The Tale of Two Cities," in
parts, 1859, $475; and an ivory box, Dickens'
wedding present to hfs bride, Catherine Ho-
garth, $800. Many of the most important lots
were personally bought by William R. Hearst
wiho attended the sale, did his own bidding and
seemed to enjoy the sport greatly.
The American Bookplate Society is now
holding its seventh annual exhibition of con-
temporary bookplates at the National Arts
Club, 15 Gramercy Park, and is open to the
public each week day between the hours of ten
to six and Sundays from two to six and will
•be on exhibit until February 26. After that
time the show will be exhibited at various lib-
raries and art museums thruout the United
States.
A collection of unpublished letters of Lord
Byron which passed into the hands of Lady
Dorchester on the death of her father are now
at last to see the light. The volume will be
issued by Murray who is editing the two vol-
umes himself and to whom the papers were
left by Lady Dorchester's will.
Charles F. Heartman, of Perth Amboy, N.
J., has just issued a bibliographical work en-
titled "The Cradle of the United States, 1765-
1789," in a handsome royal octavo volume
limited to 100 copies, 10 on Japan paper. This
work describes 500 broadsides, pamphlets and
books pertaining to the Stamp Act, the Boston
Massacre, the causes resulting in conflict with
the mother country, the War of Independence,
and the adoption of the Federal Constitution,
alphabetically arranged with index to items,
issued anonymously but listed under the
author's name. The titles are fully given with
reference numbers of Sabin, Evans and other
bibliographers. Nearly all titles have notes
and they contain much valuable information.
Mr. Heartman remarks "that it is a curious
fact that nobody has ever on a large scale
attempted to collect the contemporary mate-
rial relating to the most critical period of the
history of the United States." Perhaps this
might not have been the case if there had been
better bibliographical information easier to get
at. Frequently just such handbooks as this
open the eyes of collectors to fields that other-
wise might remain neglected.

The Toast of
all England
Anne Bracegirdle was a
famous English actress of
the 17th century. Her bril-
liant wit and radiant beauty
endeared her to all who
came under her spell.
THE BRACEGIRDLE
Sweet and refreshing as a fragrant breeze from some lotus-
laden forest is this romance of love and chivalry. It is the
intimate tale of Anne — "The Darling of the London Stage."
The author's masterly skill in recreating this heart appealing
story from the ashes of the past, will, we believe, place The
Bracegirdle among the Successes of the Season.

Publication Dates
IT is not always realized in the book-trade
how much importance is attached to the exist-
ence of a well-observed publication date espe-
cially for those titles on which the public's
expectation has been most keenly aroused.
The case needs restatement especially now. as
there has recently been much irritation over
the subject in the trade.
In the field of the magazine the importance
of the publication date is clearly recognized;
shipping is carefully timed, in order that all
dealers may receive the issues at the same
time in all parts of the country, and the local
distributors are extremely careful that no one
dealer shall put a magazine on sale before the
announced date. Only by a careful observance
01 this practice by the dealer can a condition
of irritation be avoided among the different
outlets, each one of which has the right to feel
that it displays new matter as promptly as the
other.
In the field of books the understanding of the
importance of observing publication dates has
not been as clearly accepted, and this has come
about partly because on so many books it is
not important that display shall be simultaneous
and publishers on such books do not take as
great pains to provide for simultaneous de-
liveries in all parts of the country. During
the war period and just after, there was also
great difficulty in planning the exact publica-
tion dates, as neither printers nor binders
could be relied on to fulfill promises during
the pressure of over-time work. This meant
that advertising and promotion could not be
as carefully timed as before. These latter
conditions have now passed, and a publication
date of an important title can now be accurately
set and the national and local advertising timed
with a reasonable certainty of fulfillment.
When, however, dates are announced in this
national advertising, it is necessary to allow
for a margin of safety by shipping goods to
distant points some days ahead. At this point
a very definite responsibility falls on the book-
seller who may receive bis stock before the
date mentioned. The publisher usually on an
important item sends the bill ahead and marks
the bill prominently with the publication date,
warning the dealer against too early display.
Many booksellers have apparently felt that
this warning was a mere formality and passed
the invoice down to the shipping room without
instructions, with the result that the books may
appear in the window or on the counter some
days ahead. This bookseller should stop and
think of the injustice this does to the other
booksellers on the same street, or at the nearby
news-stand, or in the neighboring cities who are
conscientiously observing instructions. A lax
handling of this problem means irritation
among booksellers who should be cooperating,
and it means remonstrating telegrams to the
publisher.
As a specific case, on the publication of Mrs.
Burnett's new novel one bookseller put the book
on display eight days ahead of the date set.
Realizing that this was against the wishes of
the publisher, he did not put it on top of the
counter, but kept it handy for selling in order
to "steal a march" on the other fellows. In
an eastern city a large department store put
the same book on the counter more than a week
ahead of the publication date, causing un-
friendly comment from neighboring dealers
who sent their telegrams to the publisher ask-
ing for permission to put it on sale.
The publishers are peculiarly helpless in this
situation, and about all they can do is what
some have already done, that is, if a bookseller
has obviously broken faith, to avoid shipping
to such bookseller in the future before the
actual publication date. This means some
special care in general shipping and a loss to
the bookseller concerned, but it is probably
the only way in which the publisher can actu-
ally make his point clear. It would be espe-
cially worth while if every bookseller would
take this matter up with the receiving clerk
and with all salesmen, in order that everyone
•in the store should understand the ethics of this
situation and its importance in book-trade prac-
tice.
Another point in the publication date problem
probably comes up in connection with less
carefully scheduled titles, from the fact that
publishers often forget to start books to distant
490
The Publishers' Weekly
points in time to reach those cities by the time
their advertising in the large national mediums
breaks. Customers of the bookstores in outly-
ing cities are very prone to believe that their
local stores are behind the large city stores in
having supplies, and if a reader in New Orleans,
lept us say, sees a book advertised in the New
York Times, it will take a good deal of ex-
planation by the local dealer to convince that
buyer that it is not already on full display in
New York and that it is not the backwardness
of the said dealer that prevents its being in
New Orleans.
Sometimes this happens because the adver-
tising got ahead of the display, even in New
York, sometimes because the distant dealer's
supplies are coming by slow transportation, but
frequently it is because the publisher does not
realize the condition of affairs in the outlying
city and fails to take every precaution to get
books there on time so that the reputation of
the local store for service may be maintained.
Against American Valuation
THE system of tariff levying by American
valuation, which has been so strongly
protested against by the entire book-trade,
seems to be going aground in Congress, accord-
ing to reports now received. While the Ways
and Means Committee of the House still de-
clare that no other method can be used, the
Republican majority of the Senate Finance
Committee is having schedules of the tariff
bill rewritten, basing the duties on foreign
market value. The disagreement between the
two houses of Congress may lead to delay, but
it is a welcome sign for the book business that
such a disagreement has come about, as the
American valuation more than doubled the
book duties and provided a protection that
no one in this market was asking for. Such
protests as have been going up in this field
have probably been duplicated in other fields,
and the trade should intensify its contact with
Washington to insure a fair tariff without pro-
hibitive rates.
Bible Society Quits Printing
'"THE announcement that the American Bible
* Society is to cease doing its own manufac-
turing has created wide interest. For more
than one hundred years this Society has
owned its own manufacturing plant, and since
1853 has been located in the building known
as the Bible House on Astor Place, New
York. It will now close its press, electro-
typing and composing room, and it may sell
the entire building and relocate. The Society
is not to curtail its activities in distributing
Bibles, but will have its manufacturing done
by contract in different places.
The New York press believes that this
is a direct result of the increased cost in
manufacture in New York City. The New
York World says, "The cost of Bible paper
handicaps the Society, but that factor is uni-
form thruout the country. Labor costs and
fire insurance are given as among the rea-
sons for the change in policy. It is well known
in the book and magazine publishing business
that much of the printing work directed in
New York which is not of a nature to de-
mand quick delivery as in the daily press is
done at a distance."
The Society reports that besides placing
printing and other plants outside of New
York it will also manufacture in China,
Japan, Siam and Asia Minor, where it
has been conducting experiments for many
years. The Society issues Bibles in seven
different languages.

Trade Associations and Government Restrictions
FROM the office of Secretary Hoover in the
Department of Commerce has come an im-
portant document which will greatly clarify
the situation for trade associations and make
it much easier for them to direct the scope of
their work without feeling that there is any
real danger of running counter to the Sherman
Law. This document takes the form of a
long and detailed letter reviewing the situation
of trade associations directed to Attorney Gen-
eral Daugherty by Secretary Hoover, followed
by an acknowledgement and brief comment
from the Attorney General.
This discussion has made it possible for Mr.
Hoover to describe carefully certain activities
that are common to a great many trade asso-
ciations and to ask the Attorney General
whether in his opinion these seem to be in any
way in conflict with the Sherman Law. The
list which has thus been submitted and ap-
proved covers those aspects of trade organiza-
tion work which are most important to these
industries and most important to the trade
progress of the country. As Secretary Hoover
pointed out, the Act which created the De-
partment of Commerce imposed on that De-
partment the duty "to foster, promote, arid de-
velop foreign and domestic commerce, the min-
ing, manufacturing, shipping and fishery in-
dustries and the transportation facilities of the
United States." In following that injunction,
the Secretary has employed all legal means to
get in close touch with each industry and se-
cure the best available information with regard
to the needs of our trade and commerce. Facts
on conditions were a necessity, and, as a large
number of trade associations were in existence,
the Department made inquiry as to their form
of organization and the functions that were
forming to see whether their material could be
utilized.
"Commercial progress in industry," to give
in brief Secretary Hoover's communication,
"has always been measured by the advance in
knowledge of those engaged in the industry.
Its acquisition is the result of continuous in-
telligent inquiry and must embrace al! facts
and circumstances that will in any way influ-
ence the industry. These facts and circum-
stances must include economic conditions as
well as scientific facts, and all commercial con-
ditions that make for efficient production, mer-
chandising and distribution.
"The difficulty seems to lie in the determina-
tion of the means and methods that may be
adopted to secure such information without
comment, but when two individuals seek to join
their efforts and each has views that each has
gathered, the collective activity seems not to
be permitted. In other words, the objection
does not go to the instrumentality but to the
abuse of the information that may be collected.
"No form of legislation has ever yet been de-
vised that would prevent men from committing
crimes if they are so minded. The criminally
inclined represent a small minority, and it may
be said in a general way that, excepting offenses
against persons and property, most of the
criminal statutes regulating trade and com-
merce and forbidding acts that seem against
sound policy have been made necessary for the
control of the minority. The fact that the
minority may be known to violate given laws
does not establish the principle that the prim-
ary means should be forbidden by law-abiding
citizens.
"Trade associations have been in existence
for many years. The great majority are legit-
imate, both in form of organization and ac-
tivity. It may happen that an association has
a lawful form but that its officers might be
acting against the law and against the associa-
tion's charter, or that members might do so.
It would seem more easy to determine the
forms of organization and activities that are
generally recognized as good than to determine
those that are bad. It is with much earnest-
ness that I claim there is propriety, generally
speaking, art these trade organizations. Their
lawful field of endeavor is large, and their
activities work for promotion and advancement
of public welfare and for progressive econ-
omic organization. The character of trade or-
ganization, the existence of which should be
preserved, is the one that has these lawful pur-
poses in the articles of the association and
whose activities are in harmony with its de-
clared purposes.
"There is much information collected by a
trade organization that would be of vast value
to the public generally if published in
practical available form. Some restrict these
statistics to members ; others make them pub-
lic. Information lawfully secured and made
public can certainly not be harmful. It is my
belief that good morals and a sense of fair
dealing require the giving of information se-
cured in this collective manner to the public
generally, to the end that all persons engaged
in commercial transactions involving the in-
formation tin question would be on an even
footing.
"I desire the informal expression of your
views, as attorney-general, as to the following
activities on the part of trade associations and
their members wherein neither the form of the
association nor the activity is used to hide or
conceal some contract, combination, conspiracy,
49->
The Publishers' Weekly
agreement or understanding, secret or other-
wise, on the part of the association or any part
thereof, to actually restrain the trade or other-
wise violate the Sherman Act."
The proposals put forward in the form of
questions may be more 'briefly stated in the
positive form as follows:
1. A trade association may provide a stand-
ard or uniform system of cost accounting and
recommend its use, provided that the costs so
arrived at are not furnished, by the members to
each other, or to the association and by the
latter to the members.
2. May advocate and provdde uniformity in
trade phrases for the purpose of ending con-
fusion in trade expressions.
3. May advocate and provide standardization
of quality and grades of the products of its
members.
4. May collect credit information, providing
such information is not used in establishing so
called "black lists."
5. May handle insurance of members.
6. May engage in cooperative advertising
for the promotion of trade and may engage in
such form of promotion by furnishing trade
labels, designs, etc.
7. May engage in the promotion of welfare
work in the plants of its members.
8. May handle all legislative questions that
may affect the particular industry, such as
tariff, transportation, litigation on rates, etc.
9. May undertake to promote closer rela-
tions between the industry and the Federal and
State governments.
10. May collect statistics from its mem-
bers showing volume of production, capacity,
wages, consumption, domestic or foreign dis-
tribution, stock statistics, wholesale and retaiil.
It may compile the information into a consoli-
dated report. It may file the combined statement
with the Secretary of Commerce for distribu-
tion by him to the members of the association
thru the public press and to the public generally.
11. While collecting production and distri-
bution statistics, may have members report
prices. These prices may be consolidated into
one table, and this compilation sent to the Sec-
retary of Commerce to be distributed by him
to the public.
In replying, Attorney General Daugherty,
after making two specific suggestions, said:
"I can now see nothing illegal in the exercise
of the activities mentioned, provided always
that whatever is done is not used as a scheme
or device to curtail production or enhance prices
or have the effect of suppressing competition.
It is impossible to determine in advance just
what the effect of a plan when put into actual
operation may be."
The exceptions pointed out were that in issu-
ing cost accounting systems an association
should supply no basic cost such as, for in-
stance, a uniform stumpage charge such as had
been suggested by the Lumber Association.
Secondly, in cooperative advertising he said
that the use of uniform trade labels on a uni-
form product by different manufactures might
result in a uniformity of price. This objection-
able plan, Secretary Hoover pointed out, was
not intentionally embodied in the plan that he
outlined.
This careful analysis of the trade associa-
tion situation will put before many bodies a
clear conception of what is possible and also
indicate to others directions in which they can
proceed. The National Association of Book
Publishers, proceeding under its present con-
stitution, would not come in conflict with any
of the suggested prohibitions of the Sherman
Law and might proceed to even further ex-
tension of its activities under the topics men-
tioned. The American Booksellers' Associa-
tion, being a more informal body, may in the
future go much further in aiding its members
by statistics and trade information which would
be strengthening to the profession.
From One Bookshop to Another
THE appearance of one well known city
bookseller as lecturer in the auditorium of
a bookshop in a neighboring city is an example
of good cooperation that is rather unusual, and
comes from the State of Minnesota. Mrs. J. T.
Watson, manager of the book department of
the Duluth Glass Block Store, opened a section
last year for old and rare books, and, in order
to introduce this type of material to the Duluth
public, she invited Leonard H. Wells, the well-
known bookman of the Powers Mercantile Com-
pany of Minneapolis, to come to Duluth and
give an informal lecture on the old and rare
books.
Mr. Wells not only knows rare books but has
made numerous annual trips to London and
knows the market from which they come. He
took with him to Duluth a fine collection of
rare items and special bindings, which added to
,the attraction of the exhibit already planned.
The announcement of the lecture (brought a
large audience, it being given in the bookshop
itself, where for a time book buying stopped,
but, as Mrs Watson reports, those who just
happened to come to the shop were as interested
as those who had planned to attend the lecture
and stood an the doorway while Mr. Wells
spoke. Many people stayed afterwards and met
Mr. Wells and asked his criticism on their
favorite books or his estimation of some old
volume lung treasured in the family posseo-
siuns.

Profit to buyer, 40 percent. Sent prepaid.
"Certain publishers claim that this method of
bookselling is to the great advantage of the
booksellers. That the extensive advertising by
the magazines of the book or books they use as
premiums, brings them to the attention of many
readers, who are induced by the advantageous
offer to make the purchase of the magazine,
and that thousands of readers who do not pur-
chase the magazine, are induced by the glowing
advertisement to buy the book of the bookseller
at the regular price. In short, this magazine
operation is an endless chain of publicity, thus
benefiting the bookseller to an extent no one
can determine.
"It does not seem to use that this beneficent
sacrifice on the part of 'certain publishers' is
done out of love and affection for either
bookseller or magazine. Self gain of the
publishers is the most evident factor.
"They further state that any loss in the
transaction if any, is mutually borne by the
magazine and book. This claim of benefit to
booksellers is disputable. It may or may not
be true as stated.
"Whatever gains may be made by the book-
seller, if any, by this premium business, is a
thousand times offset by the dangerous attack
on the 'net price' system. In 1910 and prior
years, the book-trade was on the verge from
the crushing effects of price cutting. From
then on till now, a great effort has constantly
been made in support of 'the net price,' which
with few exceptions, has been fairly well main-
tained. It is again grievously threatened from
within.
"Can certain publishers be totally blind to the
dangerous and harmful effect of giving their
latest and most important book to the maga-
zines to obtain subscriptions? Can they not
see the harmful effect it must have on the best
class of book readers, when they have glow-
ingly placed before them, in magazine adver-
tisement, books at a price the bookseller can
not follow? $5.00 books at $3.50 — a saving of
67 per cent — any books of any publishers at 40
per cent discount — the best book of the day —
given free.
"Can they not realize that this course has the
inevitable result of destroying the prestige of
bookselling, reducing books to prize-packages,
but above all, in openly supporting and en-
couraging thruout the book-reading public the
impression that booksellers have been profiteers
and are asking abnormal prices as evidenced by
the magazine prices? Is there no equity in the
minds of certain publishers, who, before enter-
ing into the publication of an important book,
first solicit and obtain the advance order of the
bookseller, predicating the size of the first
edition on the results, thus clearly establishing
a partnership? What can be said, when the
book is made a success by their united efforts,
when the publisher resorts to this method of
increasing his sales, ignores his partner — the
bookseller ?
"What does the publisher suppose the book-
seller might be tempted to do? He cannot
afford to be undersold. If he meets magazine
prices, all follow — then what? Can he afford
to underwrite new publications? Can he afford
to stock the books of certain publishers, that
magazines will not accept? Or might he not
insist before underwriting or buying the forth-
coming book, that he be assured it will not be
used as a magazine premium ? Suppose he
gives free as a premium books for a quantity
purchase? To these certain publishers, we
would say— STOP— LOOK— LISTEN.

Convention Publicity Starts
A Letter to You!
Washington, D. C.
Dear Bill Bookseller :
I KNOW you're coming to Washington in
May for our Annual Convention to help
celebrate our First Anniversary. Of course
you know that this will be our twenty-second
birthday, but it will be really our first, for
this is the beginning of a new era for our
Association. To begin with, the convention is
going to be financed by ourselves — Book-
sellers.
Publishers will do their bit, as booksellers,
however, not as publishers. Every one, be he
retailer, jobber or publisher, is a bookseller,
of greater or lesser degree and everyone is
going to put his shoulder to the wheel ; and
the publisher, as the greatest bookseller of
us all, should not only himself be a member
of our organization, but every one of his
travelers or force, who is interested in the
selling of books. The day of petty arguments
is over — we are living in an age of co-opera-
tion and the final aim of us all is summed
up in the few words — "how to sell more
books." This convention is not going to tell
you how to build bookshelves, or racks or
tables, not going to show you how to install
new accounting methods, not going to hear
reports of your overhead or how much money
you lost last year, but — we're going to get
together and tell our right names and tell of
the "boosts" we have given our business dur-
ing the past year and the new points that
have presented themselves to us. We're
all going to stand up "right in meet-
ing" and everyone is going to have
his "say." A little later on I'll write you
about the topics that will be discussed and
say, boy, we're going to have some "meetin'."
And the best part of all, we're going to do
this ourselves — we Booksellers — and the com-
mittee has figured it out that it can be done
for a small fee, and — I know you will be sur-
prised by the smallness of it — ten dollars a
person will cover the whole thing — just think —
Monday night — Tuesday night — Wednesday
night — all day Thursday (the big "play day")
and all Thursday night — I mean the best part
of it. And the days will be taken care of, too.
I know you haven't been here in years, Bill,
and there are hundreds of others just like
you, waiting for an excuse to come to your
National Capital. And just think, Bill com-
ing from the North where Winter is still in
the ground, to the land of Spring and sun-
shine, with the Capital's wonderful trees and
foliage in full bloom — it's like going to Palm
Beach in February.
And I'll tell you, Bill, confidentially, that
we have a real big man as master of cere-
monies at the Banquet and the speakers are
all going to be of the same caliber. So make
up your mind to foe here sure and don't for-
get to bring your wife and daughter, for a
visit here will be a most liberal education.
So here's looking at you and with you,
toward the big 'get-together week" at Wash-
ington, the City Beautiful.
Cordially yours,
SIMON L. NYE.
Chairman Convention Publicity Committee.
Good Book-Making
THERE is no one who has ever attempted
to express his ideals of good printing in
concrete book form but knows that results
often disappoint those who plan the book. To
take a typewritten manuscript with or without
(illustrations and plan a perfectly suitable type-
page and title-page and to get this produced
with a balanced result perfectly satisfactory to
the eye cannot be done every time or perhaps
not once in a hundred times, but the sincere
effort to do that thing shows up in the product
and not only gives satisfaction to the user of the
book but more and more persuades readers
that the collection of a library is a present
delight and a future pleasure.
Good manufacture in books like problems of
taste in any direction cannot have set rules or
standards, and few would be willing to take to
themselves the responsibility of making any
final judgment on merit, but what does carry
thru to even the most casual purchaser is the
intent to make a good book, and this usually
makes itself evident even in the face of in-
dividual failures.
Nothing can be of greater help to the manu-
facturing man than good models to go by, as
without models it is difficult to visualize the
completed volume and give the instructions
that will bring about the desired result. It
would be well if every manufacturing man had
near to his hand a collection of books that
have been found pleasing to his eye and general
496
The Publishers' Weekly
taste, 'in order that he may turn to these when
a problem of a new book is in mind. He needs
the completed book for study and comparison
just as the printer needs sample pages and type
models with which to work out his 'best efforts.
Besides this collection of well-made trade
books, the manufacturer needs an enthusiasm
for the beauty and meaning of sound type de-
sign and composition, which will generate an
enthusiasm for good printing which will make
the problem of planing even the least ambitious
of volumes a task to be approached with in-
terest. Once a good model has been worked
out for a book of specific size and character,
this book can be used for a pattern for future
books of that kind.
A very beautiful piece of special typography
that reprints a text well worth reading by the
lover of good books is a volume privately
printed at the William E. Rudge Press entitled
"Modern Fine Printing in America," an essay
by A. E. Gallatin. Mr. Gallatin pays a fine
tribute to Bruce Rogers and D. B. Updike as
artists of the first order in the field of fine
book-making and printers who reflect the great-
est credit on American art.
A very interesting innovation in book im-
printing has been turning up on the volumes
from A. A. Knopf, Inc., this year. On the
back of its title pages it gives complete infor-
mation as to who is responsible for the manu-
facture of its books. "Explorers of the
Dawn," for instance, by Mazo De La Roche,
set up and printed by the Vail-Ballou Company,
Binghamton, N. Y. ; Paper (Warren's) fur-
nished by Henry Lindenmeyr & Sons, New
York ; bound by the Plimpton Press, Norwood,
Mass." Thus gives credit where credit is due
for a beautiful volume and gives it in greater
detail than we have ever before seen credit
given.
A notable book manufactured to the satis-
faction of any booklover is "Maria Chapde-
laine" by Louis Hemon (Macmillan.) The
type page is of fine balance, the presswork
is careful and the book has a deep blue second
color on the title page and at the chapter head-
ings.
An interesting opportunity to compare Eng-
lish with American book-making where the
problem is similar is shown in the "New Cam-
bridge Shakespeare," published by the Cam-
bridge University Press and by Macmillan.
The first two volumes were manufactured in
this country and the third, "The Merry Wives
of Windsor," has come to hand in the import-
ed edition. The type page was evidently
planned to be identical or as nearly identical as
possible, tho the English edition is untrimmed.
To our eye the "American typography is every
whit as satisfactory as that of the English.
The price of the American edition is $1.40
and the English edition, eight shillings.
Doubleday have made a very attractive vol-
ume of "The Ragged Edge" by Harold Mc-
Grath with its usual use of the two-color title
page. The type and page leave nothing to be
desired for readableness.
Stewart Kidd has made a most attractive
small twelvemo of Warren Miller's "The
Sportsman's Workshop," printed at the Abing-
don Press. The type page, chapter headings
and general presswork are excellent.
A fine looking octavo comes from the At-
lantic Monthly Press, Sterling A. Leonard's
collection entitled "The Atlantic Book of Mod-
ern Plays." The binding is especially at-
tractive, having simple lettering, and the yel-
low stained top matches the yellow ink on the
side.
A well-planned reference book in its typo-
graphical layout is Waldo R. Browne's "What's
What in the Labor Movement" (B. W.
Huebsch, Inc.) The book is well bound in
strong buckram.
A good example of the steady perfecting of
standards by our American school book pub-
lishers is shown in "Elementary Community
Civics" by R. O. Hughes. An amount of
thought and care is given to .page planning
and illustrations that makes the book interest-
ing to read while still obviously a textbook.
It has been pleasant for those who love
great book illustration to see that Maurice
Leloir's truly great illustrations for "The
Three Musketeers" have been reprinted,
this time in a one-volume edition (D. Appleton
& Company). These famous pictures were en-
graved on wood by Huyot and have seldom
been equalled as an example of how admirably
a set of drawings can fit with a seeming inevit-
ableness into the text. This book was origin-
ally made in two volumes, but will now become
available to a larger public without having suf-
fered any in the reprinting.
Ladies' Night at the League
THE New York Booksellers' League held the
most important of its yearly dinners at the
Hotel Brevoort the evening of February I5th.
President Ralph Wilson was in the chair, and
the speakers were Richard LeGallienne, who
talked in a most interesting way on "The
Human Side of Books," Henry Collins Brown,
who showed pictures of old New York and
talked on the interesting historical places, and
Ida Bensey Judd, who gave readings from
Moliere. Hendrik Van Leon was also called
on for a word of greeting at the end of the
program. Among special guests at the head
table was Mr. T. H. Sofield of the English
ihouse of G P. Putnam's Sons, who is in this
country on a business trip.

Titles the Libraries Liked in 1921
A SUMMARY of the titles that have been
approved as especially desirable for library
use from among the publications of 1921 is
tabulated 'below. In the Annual Summary
number of January 28th there was printed a
tabulation of the briefer list of books recom-
mended for the small library-
There has been considerable desire expressed
for the publication of the full summary as an
interesting indication of how the demands of
general library use were being met by the va-
rious publishers. These summaries are based
on the Booklist, a monthly publication issued
from the headquarters of the American Lib-
rary Association at Chicago, edited by Miss
Mae Massee with the cooperative aid of many
librarians, specialists in various fields.
From this summary below the government
documents, and pamphlets issued by libraries,
etc., have been eliminated, and the total in-
cludes only the names of the publishers who
had two or more titles in the list :

The Case of Darwin
THE fight against the appearance of the doc-
trine of evolution in the teaching of any pub-
lic schools which was begun in Kentucky has
spread east to New York, where Dr. John
Roach Straton, Pastor of the Calvary Baptist
Church, has made it an issue. The Kentucky
legislation to prohibit the teaching of evolution
in any school that received public funds was
defeated thru the votes of the representatives
from the larger cities.

The Publishers' Weekly
Adventures of a Bookseller
By Ketch
ON Wednesday of each week the Cham-
ber of Commerce offered a dinner to its
members at which some visitor spoke,
or a pertinent subject was discussed, and Mr.
Bigboss of the Bookstore never missed the
event, as he was a natural 'mixer,' and loved to
rub elbows with
his fellow mer-
chants. He had hit
up an acquaint-
ance there with
five jolly fellows
whom :he knew
as Beans, Coffee,
Food, Pigs, and
Duds — and was
known by them
as Books ; and
the acquaintance
had ripened into
a warm friend-
ship. At every meeting these six old cronies
would get together and form a little group
in the social room before going out to dinner,
and dinner always saw them lined up side by
side.
As Mr. Bigboss stepped from the elevator
on this particular Wednesday, Duds waved to
him and waited for him as he checked his hat
and coat. Then the two walked arm in arm
over to the corner where the rest were gath-
ered.
"Ah, there, Books," said Beans, "you're late
today."
"Here's a seat/' said Food, making room.
"Gentlemen," said Books, seating himself
with Duds, "What's the program today?
"A Canadian is going to speak," said Pigs,
and referring to a circular he held, "His talk
is on 'Reciprocity — the Soul of Trade.' That
ought to be good." •
There was a chorus of approval.
"Yes," said Books, "It ought to be good —
and I hope it'll do good. But I'm rather skep-
tical."
"Skeptical !" exclaimed Pigs. "What do you
mean?"
Books smiled a wry smile.
"How many of you fellows have an account
with me?" he asked.
"Oh, my dear fellow," said Duds, "I leave
the book question to my wife."
"If ever I need a book I'll come to you,
Books," said Pigs. "But, Lord! I never have
time to read."
SIX OLD CRONIES WOULD GET TOGETHER
Food was just about to corroborate this
when Books burst into loud guffaws, and con-
tinued to laugh as tho there was a huge joke
somewhere. The five regarded him quizzically.
" 'Hasn't got time to read !' " roared Books
"Thafs good, that is!"
He slapped
Duds on the knee
and asked him
amid chuckles ii
"That wasn't
rich ;" and Duds,
rather mystified,
began to laugh,
too. Pigs flushed.
"But, good
Lord, man !" he
exclaimed in a
protesting voice,
"I haven't. Not
a minute!"
At this Books laughed louder than ever, and
the rest catching the contagion of his laugh,
were soon laughing, too. Pigs got redder and
redder.
"All right," said he, in an injured tone,
"Laugh if you want to, but it's the truth ; and
there's darn few business men that do find
time.''
"Oh, now — " said Brooks.
"Darn few!" repeated Pigs with asperity.
Books ceased his laughter, but with a mirth-
ful eye on Pigs, said,
"Do you find time to eat, Pigs?"
"No," said Pigs savagely, "I take time."
"And what would happen to you if you
didn't take time to eat, Pigs?"
Pigs did not answer, but sat flushed and pro-
voked, looking far away.
"Boys," said Books earnestly, "What would
happen if you didn't eat regularly? Speak up
now."
"Starve," said Beans, patting his tummy.
"Exactly!" exclaimed Books. Then he
tapped his forehead, and looking at Pigs,
added, "Starved I"
This tiine Beans and Duds and Food and
Coffee joined the laugh, but Pigs got to his
feet and said in a severe voice:
"They are moving out to lunch. Shall we
go?"
Mr. Bigboss returned to the Bookstore later
in the day, and had no sooner taken his seat
than Mr. Ondeck approached, a book in his
February 25, 1922
499
"I've been reading this thing that came in
this morning — 'Satanic Satires' — and it sure is
great stuff. Read it?"
"Not yet," said Mr. Bigboss, taking the book.
"Good, you say?"
"Great! And we only got five copies. Seems
to me its worth more."
Bigboss opened at random at the Preface,
The author of this little volume is perfectly aware
that Satire is not a popular form of writing. Satire
is largely ridicule, and ridicule is the most deadly
of all weapons. While aimed at one object, it
generally hits a dozen, and it is not unlikely that
the reader will receive some good, hard whacks. But
bear up, my friends, and remember that the fact
that you are vulnerable indicates that you need
those whacks. Be a sport 1
Bigboss began to laugh heartily as he hand-
ed back the book.
"Increase the order to ten — and here are
five addresses to which you may send each a
copy ... on approval. I think four of them
will stick."
And again he burst into laughter. Ondeck
regarded him quizzically.
"What's the joke?" he asked.
So Bigboss told him the dinner episode, and
added:
"We're not aggressive enough, Ondeck!
Look at other businesses — they pound away
every chance they get; wear their business on
their sleeves and stick to you like a leech.
They never miss an opportunity to get their
propaganda over to you, no matter where you
meet; and that's what we've got to do! Seize
every opportunity that comes along to push
the book business, Ondeck! We've got to get
into the modern game — and fight !"
A Professional Necessity
MANY suggestions are being carried in the
newspapers to help citizens properly pre-
pare income tax reports, and among other
information there is the information that sub-
scriptions to professional journals should be
among the deductions in the same way as
office rent, light, heat and telephone. This is
a very interesting testimony to the concrete
importance of the professional journal in con-
nection with any business. The Governmem
Bureau's statement of the case is as follows:
"A professional man — lawyer, doctor, dentist,
architect, author, etc. — may claim as deductions
the cost of supplies used by him in his practice,
expenses paid in the operation and repair of an
automobile used in making professional calls,
dues to professional societies, subscriptions to
professional journals, office rent, the expense
of fuel, light, water and telephone used in
such offices and the hire of assistants."
The English Literary Year Book
I N its second year of issue under the editor-
1 ship of Mark Meredith, the English "Liter-
ary Year Book" for 1922 becomes a reference
book of great value, a book of nearly 1300
pages containing information that is in daily
request at every library, bookshop or news-
paper office.
650 pages are devoted to a "Who's Who in
Literature," giving the record of about 5000
English and American authors, correct birth
date, present address, list of books and other
literary activities.
A list of fictitious and pseudonymous names
has been compiled, 1500 in all; a list of Eng-
land's booksellers so marked as to indicate
whether the dealer carries ne\v books, second-
hand books, antiquarian books, circulating li-
brary, or is an export house. There is a list
of all the branches of Boots and W. H. Smith
& Sons.
A very important list for American use is
the index to British periodicals, arranged alpha-
betically and again in classified form ; a list of
British newspapers and of the periodicals of
the British Colonies and commonwealths ; an
alphabetical list of American periodicals; valu-
able material for authors' use such as the re-
print of the present American Copyright Act,
of the Canadian Copyright Act, of the articles
of the Berne Convention; an account of the
American Income Tax as applied to authors;
information on moving picture rights with a
list of the producing companies both in Eng-
land and America ; important data on dramatic
rights; a list of English theaters and a list of
English publishers and their specialties and
a list of American publishers and their
specialties.
The public libraries of England are listed,
giving the population of the city, the librarian's
name and some particulars about the collection ;
also, a list of 2200 American libraries with the
name of the librarian and with the size of the
city.
This makes in total a needed reference book
of very great importance, which will save much
time and long hunting during the coming year.
It is published in United States by the PUB-
LISHERS' WEEKLY, price $3.00.

REFERENCE, to the 1853 Trade List of Little,
Brown & Company leads one to believe that
this house published more of the titles men-
tioned in Don C. Seitz' article "Best-sellers of
the Fifties" reprinted in the PUBLISHERS'
WEEKLY of January 28th than any other pub-
lishing house doing business in 1853, and today
publishing over the same imprint as then.
Little, Brown & Company published Spark's
American Biography, fifteen volumes, Daniel
Webster's Life and Works, six volumes, and
Bancroft's History of the United States, three
volumes. Judge Story's (publications in law in-
cluded twelve titles and two of these are still
on their list. Kent's Commentaries, four vol-
umes, is still in print, and there is a steady
sale for Greenleaf on Evidence, three volumes,
sixteenth edition, revised, which it is interest-
ing to see sells for fifteen dollars per set as
against the price of $16.50, in 1853, mentioned
in Mr. Seitz' article.

short story teller is a collection of the best
short stories by American writers which have
appeared in American magazines during the
year, as selected by a committee of the Society
which has as chairman Dr. Blanche Colton
Williams of 'Columbia University. This year's
volume will contain sixteen stories, many of
them by familiar authors, others by young writ-

and second prizes will not be announced until
the annual dinner of the society in the Spring.
A BOOKSELLER has just pointed out that when
a copy of iMary E. Richmond's "What is So-
cial Case Work?" published by the Russell Sage
Foundation is sold, the bookseller has sold that
book's bibliography of 59 other books, 47 of
wb'di are science and 12 of general literature.
It is sometimes said, this bookseller continues,
that social workers are not great readers, so
it is of great interest to the bookseller to draw
a selected list of books to their attention. Miss
Rflchmcnd's book itself as an introduction to
social case work is up-to-date, and is ad-
dressed to the interested public as well as
to the social worker.

In the Field of the Retailer
The Bookshop's Neighbors
AX interesting example of a bookshop house
organ comes from the newly established
City Bookshop on South Virginia Avenue, At-
lantic City. Mr. Rankin has the idea that his
store would benefit by emphasizing the shop-
ping interest of the neighborhood in which he
has established, and in issuing a little booklet
which describes his shop's facilities, he carries
on alternate pages the advertisements of a score
of shops located in Ihis vicinity. "All these
advertisers," the booklet says, "are located on
or near Virginia Avenue, the new shopping
center of Atlantic City." "The City Book-
shop" fulfills the three desires of booklovers :
You can browse with convenient shelves and
comfortable chairs; borrow from a circulating
library containing new fiction and selected up-
to-date non-fiction ; buy from an assortment of
good books comprising standard works, poetry,
drama, juveniles, books on special subjects and
the best of the latest fiction.
The Sale of Health Books
A MONG the many "Useful Books" which
**• might well come forward for more ade-
quate display during March are the books on
public health, hygiene and the care of babies.
This is an especially important group of books,
because every city is more and more interested
in the problem of improving its health statis-
tics, and the bookseller can take a real part in
such plans .for city betterment.
There is now almost nationwide competition
in the field of baby statistics, one city quoting
its rates against those of another. When in
January the Health Commissioner of New
York issued an article on "New York, the
Healthiest City in the World," Seattle took it
to task, showing that in fifteen years it had
had a death rate of only 9.78, its nearest rivals
being in order Portland, Ore., St. Paul and
Minneapolis. In the statistics as to the num-
ber of deaths of babies under one year old,
Seattle's rate is again lowest, followed by New
York, Philadelphia, Milwaukee, Buffalo, Bos-
ton, Baltimore, Pittsburgh and Fall River, these
statistics being only for cities over 200,000,
With this competitive feeling in the air. there
is a splendid opportunity for the bookstores to
help put into distribution the very best material
in this field, so that each family may have
not only an authoritative book on the care of
children, but health books of other kinds such
as may be needed by the average family. Such
a campaign of promotion will receive support
from numerous local organizations and build
up an active business.
Juveniles the Year Round
"THAT there is a steady growth of the idea
* that children's books can be sold twelve
months of the year is being shown not only
by discussion among retailers, but also by the
publishers' plans and announcements, which
indicate that this spring there will be many
titles new for the book counters which will
enable the bookseller who knows his com-
munity's interest to give freshness and new
interest to his displays.
The old idea of having ninety per cent of
the children's bookselling in November and
December was partly due to the fact that
parents were content to let their children's
libraries grow wholly by gifts from the out-
side. As these parents realized that the
children's reading interest could not be left to
chance, there has been an increase in the
month-after-month book buying, which must
be much to the advantage of the boys and
girls. There seems to be a feeling that the
large illustrated books and reissues of classics-
in elaborate form still stand a better chancti
in the fall, but new juvenile fiction will be-
ready in considerable quantity for the spring,,
both in the general field of new titles and-
in addition to the established series.
The Year Round Bookselling Campaign is-
to give a new emphasis to children's books in
connection with the "Back to Nature" slogan
in April. A point that has been often over-
looked in connection with children's books
is that the father of the family ought to be a
buyer just as much as the mother, to whom
the problem has been always largely left. One
of the factors that has brought about the great
increase in the total sales of toys has been
the fact that the father has also entered into
the field. When it comes to books on the
out-of-doors, fishing, tramping, outdoor sports
and stories of the out-of-doors, the father's
interest is always strong and runs very par-
allel to the boy's own developing needs.
In June there comes another important
opportunity to bring forward children's books
in connection with the "Summer Reading,"
and there should be considered at that time
not only the interest of the older boys and
girls, who in summer homes or summer camps
have extraordinary opportunities for reading,
but also among the youngest children to whom
new picture books are an important diversion
thru long summer hours. Booksellers order-
ing picture books or older children's books
for the fall ought to plan for the 'delivery
of at least some part of the stock for June,
in order to stimulate this summer business.

Communications
ON GETTING OUT-OF-PRINT BOOKS
New York, February 17, 1922.
Editor, PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY:
Mr. Cannon's article is interesting, but the
real reason why the second-hand dealers take
little or no interest in library "want lists" is
simply because librarians are seldom willing
to pay just prices for out-of-print books.
An out-of-print book ought to command
nearly as much as the published price, if it is
in good condition, but the dealer who should
ask it from Mr. C. or almost any other librar-
ian would probably be met with, "What, pay
you list price for a book I bought at one-third
off? Not much! I'll give you $.25 (for a
$1.50 book). I had just this experience with
one of the largest Ohio libraries, in January.
Any librarian who will let it be known that
he will pay, at any rate 90% of list, will get
all he wants but probaby he would rather let
his readers go without what they want, and
then excuse himself by saying he must "make
his funds go as far as possible," "A thing is
worth what it will bring," and saying, as Mr.
Cannon does, that "the chief obstacle is lack of
interest on the part of the dealer himself," will
not help the matter. Book dealers are not
philanthropists, they have the same expenses
to meet as have dealers in other merchandise,
and this fact ought to be recognized. When it
is, if out-of-print books cannot be obtained, it
will be simply because such books are not in
the market for sale.
BURDOCK.
COURTESY IN THE TRADE
Editor, PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY:
You've been running lately, in the PUBLISH-
ERS' WEEKLY, a lot of interesting things under
the heading "Courtesy in the Trade." Most all
of it, however, has had to do with lack of cour-
tesy. Ought not the first rate amiability that
goes on in our business be passed along?
I'm thinking right now of what seems to me
a striking instance of this. Twice in the Put-
nam advertising copy I've noticed favorable
comments on William Beebe's "Edge of the
Jungle" which we publish. Inasmuch, as the
Putnam advertisements are for the purpose of
bringing attention to their own publications,
and not to their bookstore, I feel that this ac-
tion on their part is an attitude reflecting a
most generous contribution to the better ethics
of the bookselling trade.
Most sincerely yours,
ELLIOT HOLT, Advertising Manager,
HENRY HOLT AND COMPANY.

The Publishers' Weekly
Rare Books, Autographs and Prints
A REPRESENTATIVE collection of the
works of W'histler in etching, lithography
and engraving will be shown at the
exhibition of the American Academy of Arts
and Letters, March 16 to April 16.
In the exhibition of American etchings at
the Brown-Robertson Gallery there are 121
specimens and sixty-three contributors, among
them George Elmer Brown, Ernest Haskell,
Childe Hassam, F. Louis Mora and Joseph
Pennell.
The library of the late Baroness Burdett-
Coutts, famous for its Daniel copy of the
First Folio of Shakespeare and its rare
books and manuscripts of the Victorian pe-
riod, will probably be sold in London early
next summer.
James F. Drake, 4 West 40th Street, has
just issued a catalog of "First Editions of
Modern Authors" containing 1,501 items,
characterized by a fine restraint as to prices.
While many booksellers are unmercifully
boosting the prices of modern first editions
Mr. Drake follows a policy of his own and
seems quite content to take a moderate profit.
"Art Prices Current," edited by G. Ingram
Smith, after having been held up during the
war and by post war conditions, has again
appeared. The current volume, the ninth in
the series, records the sales of drawings, pic-
tures and engravings during the season of
1915-16. Mr. Smith promises to issue the
succeeding volumes at short intervals until
the arrears have been overtaken.
At the print department of the New York
Public Libary there is a memorial exhibition
of Axel Haig who died last year. In its se-
ries of American prints the department is
showing a selection of portraits. Old city
views will be put on the walls in March, to
be followed in April by modern etchings of
similar subjects. American scenery will be
illustrated in May.
Books of reference for the connoisseur, il-
lustrated art and colored plate books, French
and English literature and many illustrated
catalogs of famous art collections dispersed
in Paris, London and New York from the li-
braries of the late Cyrus Hitchcock of East
Orange, N. J., the late Professor Kirby F.
Smith of Baltimore and the late Charles H.
Russell and Edward Brandus of this city,
will be sold by the American Art Association
March I and 2.
Thirty-one etchings by Whistler, including
rare items in his Venice, Thames and French
sets, are to be offered for sale at Sotheby's
at the end of this month when trie collection
of A. L. Richman is put up. Two of the
choicest items in the Whistler lots are un-
recorded proofs of the Venice set. One, "The
Traghetto," which is between the second and
third states and before some of the figures
in the final work were introduced, is signed
with a butterfly and is considered to be
unique.
The Dickens collection of the late William
Glyde Wilkins of Pittsburgh consisting of
first editions, autograph letters, play bills,
prints and miscellaneous Dickensiana, sold
at the Anderson Galleries February 13 and
14, brought good prices, the 575 lots realizing
$9,667. The star lot proved to be Quarles
Quickens's "English Notes," 1842, a satire on
Dickens's "American Notes" attributed to
Edgar Allan Poe, which brought $800. The
copy of "Pickwick Papers," London, 1887,
with nearly 1,000 extra-illustrations, said to
contain the most complete collection of Pick-
wick illustrations ever bound up with a copy
of the work, brought $500.
A. C. Webb, a ^young American etcher,
whose picture "Saint Chapelle" was bought
by the French Government a few days ago at
the opening of the black and white exposi-
tion in Paris, is highly praised in the French
press. Webb came from Nashville, Tenn.,
and was a lieutenant in the American Expe-
ditionary Force. After the armistice he at-
tended the art school opened for American
soldiers at Bellevue. He had never done any
sort of art work before and in a couple of years
lias become one of the best known etchers in
France, his work frequently appearing in the
great French weekly L'lllustration. French
critics generally predict Webb will win this
year's prize at the black and white exhibition.
Apparently the movement started a year
ago to make a state park of a tract including
Walden Pond as a memorial to Thoreau still
hangs fire, admirers of the poet naturalist
still working for the plan. The New York
Evening Post editorially endorses the move-
ment. It says : "Walden, except for the mys-
terious ebbs and flowings which Thoreau de-
scribed seventy-five years ago, is little
changed.
I'l-bniary 25, 1922
since he built his hut on the spot now marked
by a growing cairn of stones. The same woods
stand about it, the same single railway period-
ically disturbs the stillness, and the straight
lines of the 'orchard' which he planted with
pine cones can still be distinguished. . . .
Walden appeals not only to the literary-
minded but to the lovers of outdoor life,
whose ranks owe more to Thoreau than to
any other writer. Only one other spot, Sel-
borne, is world-famous in quite the same way.
Our numerous outdoor organizations should
support this movement for a memorial."
Sir Israel Gollancz, the well-known Shakes-
pearean scholar, reports a discovery to the
London Times, involving the names of Henry
Condell and John Hemmings, which, it ap-
pears, were the preservers in folio of the
plays of Shakespeare. The discovery is the
more interesting because it illustrates possi-
bilities of Shakespearean "finds" in old Eng-
lish country houses. At a sale at Southby's
about a year ago there was offered a manu-
script volume belonging to the early seven-
teenth century. It was a sort of common-
place book or "poetical album" of 170 pages,
and its main association and contents were
concerned with Sir Thomas Salisbury, him-
self a poet, and the author of a poetical "His-
tory of Joseph" published in 1636. The vol-
ume is now in the National Library of
Wales. In it Mr. Gollancz was shown by
the librarian a tribute to Hemmings and
Condell never published until now. The au-
thor is unknown to him, but he hints that he
may have been Sir John Salisbury's eldest
son, Sir Henry Salisbury. The lines modern-
ized read :
To My Good Friends, Mr. John Hemmings
and Henry Condell.
You that jointly with .undaunted pains
Vouchsafed to chaunt to us these noble
strains,
How much you merit by it is not said,
But you have pleased the living, loved the
dead,
Raised from the womb of earth a richer
mine
Than Cortez could with all his Castelyne —
Associates, they but dig for gold,
But you for treasures- much more manifold.
Sir Israel Gollancz remarks that, altho
these lines are not of high poetic merit, they
"attest against certain modern fantastic her-
esies that it was 'love' of Shakespeare that
prompted the editors to get together his writ-
ings, 'with undaunted pains' ; that their de-
votion to Shakespeare was well-known ; that
the treasure collected by them was recog-
nized as more glorious than gold from the
richest mines of Mexico."

Follow the Leader
Do you remember playing "Follow the Leader" in those
happy childhood days when play was the order of the hour?
When BOOKS loomed large as a grim symbol of school
lessons yet to be learned or, more delectably, as the open
door to hair-raising adventures and glorious romance.
Books probably mean as much to you today, though they
influence you differently. Now once more you may "Follow
the Leader," but this time the object of your endeavor is
A Good Book
You can determine what books to read — what books to own
—what books to give to your friends — by following the
leader in the Chicago book field—
The Book Page in
The Chicago Daily News
Remember — it is published every Wednesday.
Remember too — .
THAT THE BOOK PAGE MAY BE SUBSCRIBED
FOR OUTSIDE OF CHICAGO AT THE PRICE OF
ONE DOLLAR FOR THE YEAR, POSTAGE PAID
Here's a gift any of your friends will appreciate, and
which contains a value out of all proportion to the money
outlay.

IN HIS CHALLENGING BOOK
IN HIS IMAGE
By WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN
New York Herald says : "This book is an event of
importance. The author is spokesman for a large
segment of the people, for the most part unheard, and
his work is a frank, vigorous, often eloquent, appeal to
revelation — to the Bible literally accepted as the supreme
teacher. Mr. Bryan has the courage of his convictions and
realizes that world religion must rest squarely upon the
validity of its revelation.

HAROLD
BELL
WRIGHT
There is a stir in the world when a new
novel by Harold Bell Wright appears.
In all parts of the land interest flares
up in the man who can thus stir hundreds
of thousands of men and women by the
force of his words. You hear of
the days when he was a preacher,
and of how the wholesomeness and inspiration of his stories show him
still the director of men's souls; you hear of his hard working days when his
struggle was for life itself and of how the humanity and love of mankind shown
in his novels are based on truest understanding. He is fond of animals one learns,
and his love of the open is emphasized by pictures of him doing his writing out-of-
doors. His home in the Arizona desert is familiar as perhaps no other author's is
to all sections of the nation. Harold Bell
Wright — magic name — is recognized as being
synonymous with the phrase "the most pop-
ular author in the world."
All this has been brought home to the world as
perhaps never before, owing to the tremendous success
of his latest novel, "Helen of the Old House," the
wonderful story of industry and of the hearts and
fortunes of the workers today. Starting with a
phenomenal advance sale, "Helen of the Old House"
has proved and is this moment proving a veritable
gold mine of entertainment to the admirers of Harold
Bell Wright in every city and hamlet of the United
States. A record size edition was printed in advance
of publication and since then two other huge editions
have been required, each of them larger than the
total sales of many of the so-called "six best sellers."

"Without a doubt the most interesting of Oppenheim's novels."
"The best book that Oppenheim has written."

Founded by F. Leypoldt
March 4, 1922
"/ hold every man a debtor to his profession,

The Tariff Situation
VERY carefully drawn schedules which
would correct the evils that are embodied
in the present Fordney Tariff, have been
filed with the Senate Finance Committee at its
request by John Macrae, representing the Na-
tional Association of Book Publishers and the
American Booksellers' Association. Senator
Smoot has acknowledged the receipt of these
and expects that these schedules will come up
within the next two or three weeks. In the
meantime, it is to be hoped that the book-trade
realizes 'how serious the situation is and is
doing everything in its power to make Con-
gress realize that the book schedules are of
vital importance to the country, even if only
represented by a small industry. Libraries and
educational institutions, under the leadership
of Dr. M. L. Raney, have also kept Wash-
ington well informed of the need of these
revisions.
The latest reports from those close to the
Congressional Committees indicate that they
are now at rather a standstill as to the method
of establishing the tariff rate. The Senate
has come out in favor of levying duties on the
English cost and is reported to have begun to
revise the schedules to fit that method. Chair-
man Fordney of the House, however, appeared
next day in the paper with the statement that
jruch a plan could never be made acceptable to
the Ways and Means Committee of the House.
Following this impasse comes a statement from
Senator Smoot that the compromise might be
on the basis of the American wholesale price
instead of on the American valuation. As far
as the book situation goes, one would be as
unfortunate as the other and would mean a
doubling of the present tariff. If there is any-
one who believes that the tariff schedules on
books need to be doubled to protect American
industry, he has yet to be heard from. Pub-
lishers and booksellers are contending for not
more than twenty per cent duty and that to be
levied on the cost in the country of exportation.
Any increase on this is a futile curtailing of
international trading and a serious menace to
book use.
Bookstore Wages for Women
A FIRST step in what ought to lead to a
further detailed study of the financial
returns of bookselling as a profession
for women is given in a report printed in this
week's issue on "Salaries of Women Book
Salesmen in New York." This study has been
made for the Women's National Book Asso-
ciation by Rubie Ley, recently connected with
the Liberty Tower Bookshop. From this
study, it appears that salaries range from
$15 to $35 per week, and that the different
types of stores pay very closely comparable
rates. The average seems to be albout $100
a month or $1200 a year. This amount should
prove to have some fairly definite relation
to the total amount of books sold. The fact
that several of the houses have introduced
or are beginning to introduce the commission
system to supplement salaries shows that there
is increasing recognition of the relation be-
tween wages and sales.
Retail business is not like a public office,
and the salaries must have a sound relation
to the business done or the job is headed for
extinction. Some investigators have said that
eight per cent on the sales was the maximum
of sailes salary that can be carried along with
the other selling expense. This would mean
that the salesman who should receive $100
a month should be selling in the neighbor-
hood of $15,000 a year.
This percentage must of necessity vary with
different types of stores. The large store
with heavy advertising brings more people to
the salesman's side for attention than the
small shop relying more on the salesman's
own personality to bring the people to the
store. This would mean that in the depart-
ment store the percentage of sales salary per
$i of sales might be less, but that the total
salary might be about the same. The figures
do not have to do with small bookshop own-
ers, there having ibeen no effort made to
gather figures as to the final profits of book-
selling which has seemed to be working out
well lately for owners.
A further study of salary figures would
be of help to the bookstore owner and to any-
one in the business or expecting to enter it,
53«
The Publishers' Weekly
and if the Women's Book Association can get
further statistics, figures made from a wide
range of stores, they would be of real im-
portance.
Newspaper Pressmen Walk Out
AT midnight on Tuesday, February 28th,
the pressmen on the New York daily
newspapers ceased work by Union de-
cision, and the papers of that morning were
published in 8-page form. At 2:30 the Union
voted to return to work and appoint a com-
mittee of twelve to confer with the news-
paper publishers, asking for a modification of
the arbitrator's decision. The walkout was not-
authorized by the National Union, and the
Jocal Union head, David Simon, urged a re-
scinding of the Union's action.
The arbitration decision that brought this
action about had been passed down by Judge
Martin T. Manton, af the United States
Court of Appeals on February 2ist. The
Union claimed that the changes embodied in
it were so radical that they must have been
prejudiced. The contract between the Union
and the publishers had terminated last March.
There had been long delays in the progress
of the discussion. At first the publishers
wanted a court of arbitration and the Union
a single arbitrator. Finally the publishers
agreed to the single arbitrator plan and each-
side naimed a list of arbitrators to select from,
which would (be satisfactory. The selection
was finally delayed until January, when the
publishers accepted one on the printers' list,
Judge Manton, as mentioned above.
The hearings have taken about a month and
were published in full in the New York
Times of Thursday, February 23rd. There
was no lowering of wage scale, which is $7.50
to $8.50 a day for day work and $8.00 to
$9.00 for night work. From the point of view
of the employer, the shop conditions were
greatly improved, and the decisions would
have a bearing on other Union practice. The
production of a newspaper cannot be carried
on as systematically as to hours as other
industries, especially in the press room, and
the Union had gradually hedged the shops
around until it had become impossible to get
8 hours' work for 8 hours' pay. Judge Man-
ton decided that day work could be any 8
consecutive hours between 7 A. M. and
7 P. M., and night work any 8 hours between
7 P. M. and 7 A. M. Night hours formerly
were 6, beginning at midnight. Under that
old system, if a newspaper called the night
men in at 10 o'clock and used them only till
4, there was overtime for 2 hours from 10
to 12 and a full day's pay for the 4 hours
from 12 to 4.
Another important change in the hours has
to do with lunch hours. Under the old
arrangement, all men left the presses at one
time, while it would ibe obvious commonsense
to have the hours made staggered, so that the
presses could keep running, and this is now
approved. Another source of annoyance as to
hours came about when the night shift
worked a short time after 6 o'clock. If the
presses should be kept running, for example,
till 6:15, the publisher would pay for a full
hour's overtime at time and a half, and also
for an extra half hour overtime on the theory
that after the 6 hours' work there should
have been a half hour lunch hour allowed.
This has brought 90 minutes charge at time
and a half wages for 15 minutes' work.
Another change has been in the size of the
crew. In every city outside of New York,
the maximum crew on a quadruple press is 5.
In New York, Unions have insisted on 6.
On a sextuple press in New York, the crew
is 7 and the maximum outside is 6. The pub-
lishers are now permitted to use the same
size crew as other newspapers. New regu-
lations also permit shifting workmen from
one press to another in order to insure effi-
ciency and economy of operation as long as
transfer does not reduce the number of men
employed on any shift.
A Carbon Paper Fraud
THE trade is warned against a man who
has appeared in two or three business offices
in New York, representing himself as H.
Shields from Batavia, East Indies. This man,
representing himself as a nephew of S. Van
Kanner, made His last call at Fleming H.
Revell Company, stating that he wished to open
an account and to purchase a line of books for
an East India business. Before he left, he
mentioned the fact that he had in his hotel a
large supply of canbon paper which he had
bought but which was not suitable for East
India conditions and which he would like to sell
at an extraordinarily low price. The Revell
Company was suspicious of the story, and, on
investigation, found that other firms had been
thus approached, in each case the story being
slightly different and the item at the end on
which money was to be raised being some other
commodity. The Merchants' Association have
previous record of this fraud, and the evidence
has been filed with the District Attorney.

Report of Salaries Paid Women in Bookselling
THE \Yoman's National Book Association
recently undertook an investigation of the
salaries paid to women in bookshops in
New York City. Rubie Ley, formerly of the
Liberty Tower Bookshop, gathered the facts
for the Association. She says :
Fifteen shops have been interviewed. Four
of these shops refused to give out any figures,
and there was no opportunity to obtain them
from the clerks themselves. In the shops from
which reports could be obtained the salaries
range from $15 to $35 per week. Three of
these pay partly on a commission basis, and
one will establish that basis. Experience seems
to count for about $2 in the initial salary re-
ceived. The future seems to depend on the
salesman's ability to work up to the position
of buyer and to put the experience she has
gained dnto establishing her own shop.
These are the detailed statistics, gathered
from New York bookshops :
(1) In one large store about half the sales
force are women. The firm has never shown
any disinclination to hire women. They are
often given charge of departments, and are
then consulted in regard to all re-ordering. In
at least two instances the publisher's salesman
does not need to wait for the head buyer's O.
K. before forwarding an order. A woman with
no bookselling experience is taken on at $18 a
week, while one who can show any previous
work in either library or bookshop is gtiven
$20. The average salary is $25, and several
women are earning $35. The firm also pays a
commission. In Decemiber, the commissions
ranged from $10 to $125.
(2) In a second store, it was said there
were few women on the sales force in the
retail shop. The manager stated that he had
taken inexperienced women onto the force at
$17 a week. Intellectual background counts
more than actual selling. He would give no
further information — that each case was con-
sidered separately.
(3) The manager of a third store would
give no figures. He believed that women were
poor salesmen and were excelled by men in
every line of business. "Every woman should
work in her own home, there she is really
valuable."
(4) At a highly specialized store, the in-
vestigator was told only women were employed.
The stock girls are paid $10. The selling force
is usually recruited from these girls who have
grown up in the department and proved their
aibilty. A new person with experience would
be taken on for $20. The highest paid member
of the sales force is receiving $125 a month.
(5) Another firm pays on a straight salary
basis. This last year, a beginner was taken on
at $18, while one with previous bookshop ex-
perience was given $22.50. The maxrimuni
salary is usually considered to be $25, altho
one woman, whose splendid knowledge of books
has made her of great value to the firm, is
paid $30.
(6) A sixth firm, which has a great many
employees, a large number of whom are women,
pays an inexperienced woman $15 a week. The
highest salary of which the investigator could
learn is $22.
(7) Intellectual background is also given a
high rating at the next store. The minimum
salary is $20, while the maximum is $30. The
advance between the two extremes is dependent
upon ability and not long years of service.
(8) At a shop which requires highly spe-
cialized training of its assistants, it was felt
that the salary ought to be $35 for the type of
woman who must be employed.
(9) At a small shop where an assistant is
needed for only part of the year, $35 a week
has 'been paid in the past, but in the future $25
with a 5 per cent commission will be paid. The
proprietor believes that a commission basis helps
the assistant to feel a real interest in the shop.
(10) Another firm with a number of em-
ployees pays an inexperienced woman $18. while
$20 is offered as a start to one who has worked
in a library or another bookshop. If the
inexperienced clerk is not worth raising to $20
at the end of the first month, she is dropped
from the staff. $35 is the maximum salary for
a clerk. There are no commissions.
(n) At one department store, an ela!x>rate
commission basis has been arranged. The sal-
aries range from $15 to $20. Each clerk is
given a quota which corresponds with her salary
and is paid 2 per cent on all sales above this
figure. This makes the salaries of competent
salesmen average between $25 and $30 a week.
Commissions are paid semi-monthly.
(12) At another department store no figures
regarding salaries would be given out.
(13) At a third, the book department man-
ager has been forbidden to give out data re-
garding salaries. She said many organizations
had asked facts on this matter and she had been
instructed to refuse information. The inves-
tigator was referred to the general manager who
would return to the store about the middle of
March. From other sources it was learned
that women's salaries begrin at $18 and a com-
mission of i per cent of sales is paid.
(14) At another shop, where specialized
training is necessary for the employees and
where they are chosen with great care, $25 is
being paid at present to all women employees.

licity, in schools and camps. "Take along
Books for all the Family!"
The April Campaign
RELIGIOUS BOOK WEEK, April 2-8 — Ministers
are among the best advertisers of books. They be_
lieve so forcibly in the 'books they like, and they
have constant opportunity for discussing books.
Be sure that local ministers' associations an-
nounce the dates and purpose of Religious
Book Week, "to promote a wider interest in
religious books and in religious education in
the home." Suggest that space be given in
the church calendar on April 2d to a list of
religious books, and to announcement of book
talks and book exhibits during the Week.
Church clubs and classes, young people's socie-
ties, weekly prayer meetings, the April Second
sermons, are all opportunities for talks about
the influence of books, and about specific books.
Be sure that literary clubs meeting during
the Week have announcements of Religious
Book Week, and exhibits of books if desired.
Get the art stores to cooperate with religious
art displays. They will be planning appro-
priate displays for the Easter season. Re-
prints of illustrations from Bible stories for
children and other art books of religion can
be obtained from some of the publishers.
The public library will cooperate with you
by harving displays of books for Lenten read-
ing, and books for Easter gifts.
Displays — Plan your displays and adver-
tising to cover the two weeks before Easter,
featuring general religious books during the
Week of April zd, and Bibles, prayer books
and other devotional books especially during
the week immediately preceding Easter. Books
as Easter gifts should be emphasized during
both weeks.
Posters — 'Several of the religious publishers
are sending the Religious Book Week poster
direct to churches, which will prepare the way
for your advertising. The Committee is count-
ing on you to order posters for churches not
supplied. A streamer, "Second Annual Re-
ligious Book Week, April 2-8" will be sent
with each poster.
Cards for distribution — The poster will be
reproduced on a card 21A t>y 5/^ inches, two
color, with the following statement on re-
verse (Space left on reverse for dealer's im-
print also).
"It is not enough for people to read the
current novels and magazines. Religious fam-
ilies ought to build up good libraries of re-
ligious 'books. Children should be made fa-
miliar with them; in their youth. It is a
wholesome thing for every family who cares
for the higher things in life to give attention
to the additions that are made to the home
library. This ought to include something
more than the incidental, trivial and flippant
things, which too many people are content to
buy and read. If we are to train up a gen-
eration capable of sustained thought and pos-
sessed of strong convictions, there must be
some attention to the selections and purchase
of good 'books for the home."
These cards are appropriate for distribution
at meetings, in Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A.,
as bookmarks in books sold, as gift cards to
go with books, for mailing direct to cus-
tomers, etc.
The rcliffious book department — In connec-
tion with Religious Book Week in 1921, several
book stores opened religious departments. At
least one large department store started a
March 4, 1922
541
religious book department, circularizing all
the ministers in the county about the Week,
and the books added to the store. There is
profit in selling religious books. '
Books as Easter Gifts
The Easter gift band is similar to the
Valentine gift 'band, 27 inches long, il/2 inches
wide with white letters "Easter Greetings" on
a purple background. These bands around
books make effective window displays, and are
attractive left on the book purchased as a
gift. Easter greeting cards to accompany gifts
might be displayed and sold with books.
Religious books are suitable for this dis-
play, and also books of essays, poetry, arid
attractive editions of books on other sub-
jects.
"Back to Nature*' Books
April is the month for spring opening in
the ibook store : bright posters, vases of wild
flowers, colored photographs of "April" birds,
garden tools, photographs of 1921 gardens, fish-
ing and camping equipment or other displays
suggestive of outdoor pleasure, will be appro-
priate as center for the window. Books on
gardening ; guide books to birds, flowers, trees,
mushrooms, stars, etc. ; books on outdoor
sports ; books of nature essays ; all these will
have a pulling power with spring in the air.
The poster shows a man and two boys on a
hike stoppling to look up a new bird in a book
they have carried. This poster will be re-
produced on 3^ by 5jX cards, for dealer's
imprint and distribution. Appropriate for cir-
cularizing nature study clubs, "Audubon"
clubs, etc.
"Take Along a Book"
A window transparency for dealer's use is
being printed for mailing about March I5th.
This is a circular cut sign, -eight inches in
diameter, for application to window/ door, or
bookcase. If the sign is applied carefully (di-
rections furnished with each sign), ft Will stay
on the glass for months without "curling or
washing off. Perhaps the best place for this
permanent sign is on the door, below the dealer's
name, but high enough to catch the attention
of the passer-by. One sign will be sent to each
dealer. Extras on request.
Year-Round Bookselling of International
Interest
The Canadian, English and French book-trade
periodicals have been printing details of the
Year-Round Bookselling Campaign for several
months, in some cases using cuts of the posters.

Price Maintenance Again to the Front
Booksellers' Convention Asked to Take Aggressive Stand
THE problem of price maintenance in the
book-trade, which is apparently coming to
the front from a good many different
angles, may be made an important subject of
discussion at the Washington Convention if
the Program Committee takes up the sugges-
tion embodied in a statement addressed to
them by Charles E. Butler, Chairman of the
Board of Trade of the American Booksellers'
Association. Mr. Butler points out that the
Kelly Bill, which seems to be the only way out
of the continual menace of price-cutting, is
now before Congress and that a strong drive
made in May with a national backing might
be a wonderful opportunity to put this legis-
lation thru.
The plan for emphasizing price maintenance
has received the hearty approval of the Amer-
ican Fair Trade League whose secretary has
written "We believe that your Association is in
a position to strike a winning blow in the long
campaign."
Mr. Butler's statement is as follows:
"As the Convention will be held in the Cap-
itol of the United States we are given as won-
derful an opportunity as any Convention ever
had, if we are alive to the occasion.
"The vital question today for the book-trade,
as well as to a vast majority of other mer-
chants and producers, is protection against the
assaults of 'price cutters' the country over,
who, under the camouflage of the 'protection
of the consumer,' assaril, impair or destroy,
whomsoever it may be their pleasure and for
their own benefit, so to treat, all of which is
done, seemingly under the sanction of the
Law.
"Efforts have been made and are being made
to correct this evil, all kinds of decisions have
been handed down by the court, some favor-
able, some otherwise, until the merchants of
the country are at an utter loss as to what
'can be done' and what cannot be done.
"To remedy this disastrous condition, and in
order that those who desire to sell their mer-
chandise, at standardized prices, may be author-

ized to do so, by the passage of a law to that
effect by Congress there 'has been introduced
in the House of Representatives by Mr. Kelly
of Pennsylvania, a bill — H. R. n.
"To protect the public against false pre-
tense, in merchandising — under trade-mark
or special brand, of articles of standard
quality." Certain safeguards and pro-
visions being provided.
"This bill is on the calendar, and ready to be
brought up when the opportunity offers, but
Congress is busy, and apt to be for some time
to come.
"In the meantime the opportunity of the
book-trade is here — we hold our Convention in
Washington in May. Why not make this Con-
vention a National issue, by devoting most ol
the time, if not all, to the biggest drive we
can make thruout the United States, urging
every merchant and producer who wants to, to
join with us in demanding of Congress the
passage of the Kelly Bill, H. R. n.
"I believe such a campaign as this, and such
a Convention, would bring the book-trade to
Washington from all parts of the country, as
a patriotic duty as well as for their own inter-
est, all full of fight and enthusiasm.
"Consider the opportunity offered. Many of
the members of Congress undoubtedly would
be glad to support the Bill and speak for lit,
members of the administration likewise, and
prominent men from elsewhere bear in mind
that the Federal Trade Commission recom-
mended such a bill to Congress, that the Cham-
ber of Commerce with thousands of members
all over the country voted in favor of such a
bill, that the American Fair Trade League,
with hundreds of prominent producers in its
membership, has fought in and out of Con-
gress, for such a bill, that merchants and pro-
ducers all over the country are working hard
for government protection. Support could be
!had from all of them and from many other
sources.
"Here is a vast field of opportunity. Pub-
licity would be ours almost without the asking,
from the press correspondents in Washington,
for they could talk about a vital question of
the day — that would be of great interest to
their readers in every part of the country.
"Will every bookseller and publisher bear in
mind that those in opposition will mightily op-
pose the Kelly Bill for obvious reasons? That
it is therefore vitally important that members
of the tradCj who can, should be in Washington
next May. Expense is no object for the pos-
sible gain in fair trading, with its ensuing
peace and contentment to all parties concerned,
even the opposition.
"Will this brief outline appeal to members
of the book-trade ? Will booksellers and
publishers wake up, and do something for
themselves? Will they get together in their
respective localities, and bring in all other mer-
chants they can, say, in the form of a peti-
tion and have the petition ready for the
Convention ?"
The whole situation illustrates the necessity
for the enactment of such comprehensive legis-
lation on the subject as the Kelly Bill affords.
This will finally and definitely remove all ques-
tions of economic and legal doubt from the
controversy and settle this question much to
the belief and permanent advantage of Ameri-
can business.

Chairman of the Board of Trade of the
American Booksellers' Association.
Copyright and the Irish Free State
ti'T'HE Government of Ireland Act, 1920, ex-
* eludes from the legislative power of the
Irish Parliaments 'Trade marks, designs, mer-
chandise marks, copyright or patent rights,' and
as the Government of Northern Ireland is con-
stituted under this Act, it follows that the Six
Counties remain part of the United Kingdom
so far as the Copyright Act of 1920 is con-
cerned," says The London Bookseller and the
Stationery Trades' Journal.
"But the grant of Dominion status to the
South and West of Ireland empowers Dail
Eireann to make any laws it wishes on the
above subjects, thus the Copyright Act of 1910
will not be applicable to the South and West.
The Copyright Act of 1710 afforded protec-
tion onily in Great Britain until the Act of
Union in 1801 extended the operation
of the law across St. George's Channel.
Between the years 1/09 and 1801 many incon-
veniences were experienced by British authors
and publishers.
"What will be the result of Dominion status
for the greater part of Ireland, and of govern-
ment under the Act of 1920 for the Six Coun-
ties of Ulster. In the absence of special legis-
lation it would appear that any book or design
copyrighted in Great Britain will, after the set-
ting up of the Irish Free State, remain the
copyright of the author (or other owner under
the Act) in the Six Counties, but will cease
to enjoy protection in the greater part of Ire-
land.
"These matters deserve immediate attention,
and action is required to prevent the infringe-
ment of the various rights accorded by the
Copyright Act of 1910.

English Book-Trade News
From our London Correspondent
"THERE is to be a big Book Fair at Flor-
* ence, Italy, in May, June, and July of this
year. In the course of an excellent letter
dealing with the scheme, issued by the British
Italian Commercial Association, the Committee
says :
The demand for British books is increasing.
Dreary years in the trenches have taught young
Italy to read, unknown Italian authors have
now as many edfitions sold as only well-known
writers could hope for before the war, and a
great part of the pre-war demand for German
books has given way to a desire for English
books. If this demand has not yet become
effective the fault probably lies in our insuffi-
cient knowledge of the Italian book market.
The Italian wants cheap editions of our classics
in paper covers, he does not want the latest book
at IDS. 6d, If our publishers have stocks of
our classics unbound they migiht with advantage
offer them at the Book Fair in paper covers.
But there is also an expanding market for
expensive books. Last spring foreigners visited
Italy in very great numbers ; the "foreign visi-
tors" department of Government, formed in
1919, has .improved traveling conveniences,
and Florence will have a crowded spring sea-
son; many of that crowd, mostly English speak-
ing Americans, will visit the Book Fair ; the
Italian exchange will not affect their purchase
and they will be attracted by your newest books.
The tenth annual dinner of the International
Association of Antiquarian Booksellers was held
at the Criterion, London, on January 26th,
with the President, F. W. Chaundy, in the
chair. Among the guests were: Major John
Hay Beath ("Ian Hay"), J. C. Squire, editor
of the London Mercury, and Hugh Walpole.
Says a writer in the London Daily Mirror:
John Masefield is hard at work on his offi-
cial history of Haig's army. He has recently
translated a play by Racine, of which he and
his wife, with others, gave a private perform-
ance. He lives at "Poets' Corner," which is
as near as I may go to his address, for he is
a shy man — more so than Barrie — and would
not thank me for "giving him away."
American students at Oxford, one of them
tells me, like to go to Masefield Sunday after-
noon "tea fights." The poet says nothing
about poetry, but a lot about ships, fox hunt-
ing, boxring. crops, and, especially, Anglo-
American friendship.
In a report of fiction best sellers that has
just come to hand, we notice that in the twelve
representative cities quoted, Mr. Hutchinson's
"If Winter Comes," is first on the list in
crcry case.
T. H. Sofield, a director of G. P. Putnam's
Sons, Limited, London, is visiting America for
a sojourn of a few weeks.
A titbit for the after-holiday period: "I
heard," said a well-known paragraphist the
other day, "that thirteen unlucky London pub-
lishers declined 'Tarzan of the Apes' before
it was accepted by Messrs. Methuen."
The price of reprints is lowering. This is
a good sign. But we believe it has come about
by reason of the large stocks held by certain
reprint publishers, and it may be that rather
than lose the whole, it was wiser to turn over
a sale at a minimum of profit, or at exact cost.
Certainly, costs of materials that go into the
making of a book have not lowered sufficiently
to justify a reduction of the published prices
of reprints. Moreover, it is a fact that tens
of thousands of reprints have recently flooded
the remainder market, and good titles at that.
It is the same everywhere. With falling costs,
slow tho the fall may be, it has become a
necessity on all trades to clear out the high
priced stock to make way for the new material
at current prices.
"I wish my body on no account to be cre-
mated .... and I beg of my friends of their
charity from time to time to pray for my soul,"
is a direction in the will of Alexander Louis
Teixeira de Mattos, the notable author and
translator, formerly editor of Dramatic Opin-
ions. He left £2831. He gave his ivory-
knobbed walking-stick to Stephen McKenna,
the author, a set of Poe's works to J. T. Grein,
the dramatic critic, and Walpole letters to G.
W. Russell, the well-known solicitor. There
is a touch of humor, says the Evening News, in
the gift of a book to a certain friend. He
describes the book as one "which he (the
friend) borrowed many years ago and has never
returned." This is a new and grim joke on
borrowers.
Referring to his hobby of book-collecting,
Hugh Walpole at a d>inner recently said he
did not know when he became a collector,
but he remembered that when ten years of age
he had a sudden desire, almost an agony, to
possess a copy of Sir Walter Scott's "The
Abbot." There was a very fine copy
in a bookshop in his native town, but he
had not the money with whiich to purchase the
volume. He decided to endeavor to exchange
an autographed volume of his father's sermons
for the coveted book. The old bookseller, on
examining the book of sermons, took him
aside, and gave him a little lecture on fathers,
sons, and books, and then generously presented
him 'with the copy of "The Abbot." (Cheers.)

Learning from the Customer
By Irving Allen
IN few businesses ;is there such a measure
of discriminating taste and learning brought
by the customer to the selection of goods
as in the retail book business. This is at once
the despair of many sales people and the
opportunity of others. Probably in few other
businesses is the buyer likely to be better in-
formed on the wlhole about the thing he
wants. This arises out of the peculiarities
of bookselling, and is no reflection on the
knowledge of the clerk. Anyone who can
speak authoritatively in all the fields ot
science, literature, economics, art and other
departments of knowledge that books cover
is yet to be found. But it is the bookman's
vocation to be- -interested in all these subjects
and to meet partially the specialized knowl-
edge of the well informed customer.
For the clerk may learn from specialists in
a dozen fields. Especially is this true in our
metropolitan' cities and centers of learning
where specialists are to be found browsing
among books. While anyone may select their
ties or Stationery for them, they like to choose
their books themselves. The possibility of
waiting on these people without knowing who
they are should compel an attitude of genuine
intellectual humility on the part of the clerk.
For he might be talking to Will Irwin urging
the purchase of "The Next War" (as one
clerk actually did) or to Booth Tarkington
without guessing his identity. Imagine wait-
ing on Christopher Morley or William Mc-
Fee, and letting him slip out with hardly a
word about books !
Now that is not likely to occur very fre-
quently. Yet in every town there are excep-
tionally well-read persons of taste and crit-
ical ability. They are sources of information
and criticism, if the salesman will only listen
and indicate that he is anxious for the cus-
tomer's point of view. This is not crude
flattery nor obsequiousness, but springs from
a desire to grow and learn. Soon the book-
seller will find himself developing discrimina-
tion, good taste, and information. This singu-
lar joy is part of the bookselling game. And
such an attitude on the part of salesmen
would go far to lift their status before the
public.
Added to these daily contacts a sustained
reading of the important, influential books
continually appearing together with hand-
books about books such as Strachey's "Land-
marks in French Literature." Chesterton's
''Victorian Age in Literature." and Maurice
Baring's "Russian Literature," all of which
are in the Home University Library, would
make one grow steadily in the possibilities of
service and profit. The book business offers
th;s unique opportunity of rich contacts for
all who are wise enough to grasp it.
Old Books Which Hold Their Own
r___, HE February 18 issue of the Independent
I aitfl the Weekly Review was an Old Book
•*• Number. An interesting feature was a
discussion by some of the important book pub-
lishers of the books, favorites of an older gen-
eration, which are still being reprinted because
of an enduring popular demand. George
Haven Putnam wrote of some of the old hooks
on the Putnam list which are still in demand.
The list included : "Tabular Views of Uni-
versal History" published by Mr. Putnam's
father in 1832, and kept in print since that
date with the necessary revisions by Major
Putnam ; the works of Washington Irving, first
printed under the Putnam imprint in 1848, with
some of the more important works brought into
print, earlier, from 117 on; the works of Feni-
more Cooper have carried the Putnam imprint
since 1854. As far back as 1850, G. P. Putnam
brought out the first American editions of
George Barrow, still issued by Putnams.
"Views Afoot" by Bayard Taylor was pub-
lished in 1848 and still finds a circle of read-
ers. In 1884 the Putnam house brought out
Theodore Roosevelt's "History of the Naval
War in 1812."
George P. BVett, president of Macmillan Co.,
records his first publication venture when he
came to the firm, the publication of a book
still in favor.
"The first Macmillan book with whose pub-
lication 1 was directly concerned was F. Mar-
ion Crawford's first novel. His uncle, Sam
Ward, a well-known Washington publicist.
raconteur, and ban vivant, came to buy books
from me when I was a retail salesman in Mac-
millan and Co.'s shop down on Bond Street.
One day, in the course of conversation, he said
that his nephew had written a book and I must
hear it read. So I went with him one evening
to listen to the story of 'Mr. Isaacs.' I was
enthusiastic about the book and urged the Lon-

don house to print it, being certain that we
could dispose of a large edition. They took it,
but very skeptically, and for the first few
months the sale in America was very poor.
Then in a single day, for no apparent reason,
it began to go so fast that we could not keep
it in stock, and quickly ran a sale of 100,000.
The continued demand for his works led to
the publication of a new uniform edition in
1919, called the Sorrento Edition."
John McCrae, Vice-President of E. P.
Button & Co., after discussing titles in the
Everyman's Library which have enjoyed a
wide circulation for years, writes :
"The writer of this article feels that more
good books are being written today than ever
before in the history of man ; and that in the
years before us some of the writers now
stormed at and denounced as immoral, or in-
capable of writing true literature will be among
the immortals of this generation. Often books,
like men, are ahead of the time, and the author
spends his time in writing for the joy of the
generations to follow. Not many years ago
Samuel Butler wrote 'The Way of All Flesh.'
Not so many as 600 copies were sold at that
time. Some few years ago we reprinted this
wonderful book. Slowly the men of our gen-
eration sensed the value of that splendid novel ;
and now, year after year, the book sells, one
edition follows another. We have had similar
experience with W. H. Hudson's 'The Purple
Land.' "
Sell A Book A Minute
4 ( I N sprite of the generally admitted fact that
I 1921 was a non-fiction year there was quite
a galaxy of 1>iig advertising campaigns
over yonder in connection with certain
novels," says The London Bookseller and
Hie Stationery Trades' Journal. It is ob-
viously coming to be recognized, and very
quickly too, that commercial methods have got to
be drawn upon if more books, and particularly
novels, are to be sold. And when we use the
word commercial, we do not clothe it with any
theatrical or melodramatic dress. Surely it is
possible to make 'book publicity at once efficient
and far reaching, as well as tasteful. The old
ideal of the severe and dull announcement must
and will go. Those of us who have been watch-
ing the evolution of publishing in all its aspects,
here and in America, realise that this as a
definite fact. And some American publishers
are facing the problem very deliberately, while
here and there in England there 'is a glimpse
of the revolution in this particular side of pub-
lishing. Concerted campaigns for the popular-
ising of the book are all to the good, and the
National Association of Book Publishers, of
New York, and the American Library Asso-
ciations are striding thro the country with no
uncertain voice. But 'Buy a Book a Week'
campaigns are ineffective, or at least only fifty
per cent in operation, if there is not coordina-
tion between die organizations, and the publisher
and bookseller. The 'Buy a Book a Week'
slogan should be supplemented in the bookstore
with 'Sell a Book a Minute.' There is just
as much, perhaps there is more, responsibility
on the part of the assistant to sell as there is
on the part of the public to buy. And in the
publishing office there should be a getting to-
gether and a frank examination of the selling
methods. Certainly, the bare announcement of
title, author and price, with a nicely selected
bit from a good review will sell a copy or so ;
but what publicity should do is to sell hundreds
of copies. Don't let us 'be too snobbish about
the soap manufacturer's methods. We have
heard it now for more than thirty years — but
still he has sold his soap, made his millions,
and been raised to a peerage. And why not?
He has been a good citizen. On the other
hand, we don't need such methods in our pro-
fession. What we do need, however, is the
soap manufacturer's imagination. And it is
with us ; for we doubt whether any other busi-
ness is staffed so completely with educated and
trained minds as publishing. In America they
are realising the need of a new effort to per-
suade the public to buy 'books. Of course,
their field is large, and therefore the oppor-
tunity is greater.
"It is most encouraging that so many serious
books, all of such brilliancy, should have been
so freely 'bought, and this condition of current
literature may surely be traced to the ener-
getic campaigns of the publishers and the A.L.
A., all of which have been so heartily backed
by the bookseller. It is clear, even at this early
date, that the cruse of enterprise for this year
is not only goring to be very full, but it is" going
to run completely over. Schemes, and big ones,
are all ready in many cases, while others are in
the making, for a big push forward in the
interests of popularizing literature, and if
costs of production break, as they are tending
to do. 1922 should be a great year in the annals
of American publishing."
Romantic Book of Etiquette
NOT that the revered "Book of Etiquette" is
without romantic interest. "My dear Miss
Johnson." reads a sample Invitation to the
Opera, "I have been fortunate enough to obtain
a box in the parquet, where the eight of us
who will compromise the party will be com-
fortably seated."

Reminiscences of a Book Scout
By Joseph Jewett Barton
VI. How Disaster Was Turned To Victory
THIS might properly be called "The Tale
of the Sink, or, How Disaster was Turned
to Victory."
I used to advertise in the South Brooklyn
papers, those little sheets that every housewife
gets to keep up on the neighborhood gossip.
As an advertising medium they were quite satis-
factory; I would save the replies until I had
about twenty-five to thirty, arrange them in
routes and then have a visiting day. Of course
three-fourths of them were blanksj they evi-
dently thought I was a junkman; in the other
quarter about two would be old attics. I am
very fond of old attics ; not as an abiding place,
I never got as deep as that into produc-
ing literature; but as repositories of relics of
by-gone days, especially books and prints.
One particularly lucky day sticks in my mind ;
my route was south along the Fifth Avenue car
line from the Atlantic Avenue station, and I
stopped first on Eleventh Street, then Four-
teenth, Seventeenth, and several other places
but found nothing worth taking along until I
got into the thirties. On one of these streets
just west of Fifth Avenue a nice little old
lady said she had quite a number of old .books
out in the woodshed and perhaps I might find
something I wanted. They were of no use to
her as her children had all grown up and
moved away and there was only her husband
and herself, and John was too tired when he
came home to read anyway and she herself was
getting a little old and her eyes were not what
they used to be and I might as well have them
as anybody else, as she was thinking1 she would
be giving them to the hospital or the Salvation
Army and one of her daughters now lived in
Marietta, Ohio, and John Junior was too busy
running after the girls and if I would just come
out thru the kitchen if I didn't mind, it was
the easiest way to the woodshed.
I didn't mind, and the woodshed was a nice,
orderly, clean woodshed, too; I spent a very
pleasant hour or so sorting the sheep from
the goats, and gathered a few nice books. There
were "Leaves of Grass" 8vo green cloth Wash.
1872, a scarce edition; the "Life and Corres-
pondence of Paul Jones," N. Y. 1830; a bound
volume of Anti-Slavery reviews and pamphlets
of various dates in the thirties and forties, a
number of them by Whittier; "The United
States Criminal Calendar" 8vo lithographed
boards, Ills. Boston 1835; a Copperhead
pamphlet entitled "Narrative of Edmund
Wright, His Adventures with and Escape from
the Knights of the Golden Circle," 8vo Ills.
N. Y. 1864. There were also several first edi-
tions of Washington Irving and J. K. Pauld-
ing. From my point of view it was quite a
satisfactory woodshed and that volume of
pamphlets turned out far better than I had
guessed at first sight.
I could not reconcile the books with the peo-
ple who owned them, so I inquired diplomatic-
ally as to their history, and it seems that John
had been coachman or gardener or something,
to an old Brooklyn family by the name af
Barkaloo who I believe was allied to the Ber-
gens, and the books had been given when the
Barkaloo old home was sold.
I used to look at a prospect's house and its
surroundings and say to myself, "there is
nothing in my line here, what's the use of
ringing the bell," 'but years have changed my
views and I now say "where you expect to
find them they ain't" and vice versa. All signs
fail when book-hunting.
So later on this same day in a house in one
of the forties I was invited to come to the
cellar, and in a soap box there the only book
among a lot of paper bindings by Laura Jean
Libby, Garvice and Bertha Clay, was a nice
copy of the first edition of the "Estray," a
Collection of poems edited by Longfellow, in
the original yellow glazed boards, uncut, paper
lalbel, Boston 1847. That certainly was a
queer combination, and think of the anguish
that book must have suffered in such company.
On Sixty-Third Street, my last stop, I was
shown a choice line of Colliers' publications in
sets, and their owner seemed to be very much
disgusted because I declined to be interested in
their purchase. After she told me how much
she had paid for them, that they were as good
as new, and that she didn't see why I couldn't
sell them, I thanked her for her courtesy in
letting me look at them, and was about to bid
her good afternoon, at the same time reflecting
that this had not been a perfect day by a great
deal.
Instead I turned to her, perli?^ entreatingly,
with the query : "Haven't you any other books
anywhere^" and she replied with a half laugh
that there were a few childrens' books out in
the kitchen in a cupboard under the sink.
Up on the second shelf to the northeast,
out of danger from any water that might drip
into the sink. I found "Liberty Tree, with the
last words of Grand-father's Chair" by Mr.
Hawthorne, first edition, 24010, original black
embossed cloth, with the paper label in gold
and black on the side, Boston 1841. This copy
evidently had not appealed to the children of
its day, or later days.
I do not believe it had ever been opened, and
the rare book department of one of New York's
largest publishing houses had a valued woman
customer who was waiting for this particular
book. It is a good thing that books outside
of their printed words, do not talk. Think of
it! From the cubby-hole under the sink, to a
Velvet-lined solander case in Central Park
West. Undoubtedly books have souls, and how
like a Redeemer I must have seemed to many
Murch 4, 1922
547
a one. I have washed away a multitude of sins,
with gasoline, alcohol, ammonia and javelle
water. I have steamed, pressed and ironed.
Each one of us has his niche in the world,
some save men or themselves, others make love
to beautiful women, and some not so beautiful;
but if you or I save from the paper mill or
rescue from ignorant, unappreciative hands
some choke little item, rehabilitate if necessary,
and send it forth again, fit to fight another
hundred years, or better still, find it a good
home, will we not in some sort of a book heaven
get our reward
Incidentally, some ido all this and reap
a little reward here. I had a friend down in
North Carolina who picked up from the jani-
tor's sweepings of the State House at Raleigh,
the Acts of the Assembly for 1751, unbound;
and after he had ironed and cleaned, valued it
at $500 with no desire to sell at any price.
This reminds me of a story I once heard about
a well-known law book dealer, who, under the
pretence of being a paper dealer, even had some
business cards printed to that effect; bought
a carload of old Acts and Records from the
janitor of another State House, and routed
the car around several states so nobody could
trace it, until even the Car Accountant's office
thought it had left for Europe. The story runs
on to the effect that the contents of that car
eventually brought over fifty thousand dollars.
But how does that sort of thing sound to you ?
Missouri Book Week
THE plan of using the unit of a state for
arousing wider interest in books has been
carried thru in successful experiment by the
State of Missouri. The press thruout the
state showed marked interest. Of special
importance in signifying the public interest in
the occasion was the proclamation from the
governor. This proclamation not only gave
official weight to what the Committee was do-
ing, but stated iin an effective way the impor-
tance of books to every community.

people depend to a large degree upon education
not only thru schools, but also thru Public
Libraries and other agencies for the promotion
of wider reading of good books, and
WHEREAS, to the end that the value of books

WHEREAS, it is fitting, especially at the
time of Lincoln's Birthday to give thought to
the significance of books in the lives of men,
knowing as we do the effect of good books in
the life of this great American,
Now, THEREFORE, I, Hiram Lloyd, Acting
'Governor of the State of Missouri, by virtue
of the authority in me vested, do hereby desig-
nate the days of February I2th to February
i8fh, 1922, as days to be observed as Missouri
Book Week, and would recommend that teach-
ers, during this week, impress upon the child-
ren the value of good reading and that minis-
ters bring out in their sermons the influence of
good reading on the moral and civic advance-
ment of the individual and the state.
Given under my hand and the great seal of
the State at the Capitol in Jefferson City, this
the first day of February, in the year of Our
Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred and Twenty
Two.

Secretary of State.
Among the important cooperative efforts was
the leading editorial in the St. Louis Globe
Democrat, which pointed out the specific needs
in Missouri for wider book distribution and
emphasized the importance of the new legis-
lation that had been passed in 1921 which was
designed to permit community organization for
a library.
The State Committee included V. W. Lucas
of the Missouri Stores Company, Columbia,
Misssouri.
Indiana is following on April 23d with an
Indiana Library Week, placing the emphasis
on library use of books rather than on the
books themselves. The campaign, however, is
putting a strong emphasis on the need of more
books as well as more general support for lib-
Scouts and Books
THE active work of Chief Scout Librarian,
Franklin K. Mathiews, in interesting" the
Scout Executives in the various cities more
keenly in the problem of boys' reading has
brought forward many good results and from
numerous cities have come interesting derails
of activities. As an example, J. A. Sessions,
Scout Executive of Sault Sainte Marie, writes
to the Scout headquarters :
"We have put into circulation all the book-
lists provided, and the bookstores report that
they are practically sold out of their stock of
the recommended books, and that they feel this
extra publicity did a great deal of good in a
business way, tho general holiday business was
lighter than usual. The Carnegie Library re-
ports more calls for these books by the boys
and their parents than for any other children's
books. Our effort was just a humble one, but
we cannot help but feel very much pleased
with the result."

The Publishers' Weekh
Anglo-American Publishing
"THE following paragraphs recently appeared
* in the London Graphic, about the ever
closer relations -between English and American
publishers, predicting a future when English
and American authors would write for this
large comibined public.
"Publishing houses are the business expres-
sion of literature, and some of those of Eng-
land and America have sown their activities on
both sides of the Atlantic : Macmillan, Long-
man's, Putnam, Harper and others. They go
forward as they have done, and a new move-
ment, somewhat different in character, has arisen
in Anglo-American publishing. It is illustrated
by the immediate news that the house of John
Lane in New York has been taken over by
the New York house of Dodd, Mead, which
found America's winter "/best seller" in Mr.
Hutchinson's "If Winter Comes," (sic!) and
that John Lane in London and Dodd, Mead in
New York are to act in consort. This means
a good deal in a literary way, for one firm
will have the pick and choice of the other's
books, as, say, the novels of Mr. W. J. Locke,
which have a great vogue in America.
"Only recently Heinemann, of London,
and Doubleday, Page and Company, of New
York, organized themselves in the same man-
ner. It is no secret that Hodder and Stough-
ton, of whom Sir William Robertson has
long been the editorial chief, and George
Doran, of New York, are intimately
associated for transatlantic literary pur-
poses. Once some American publishing houses
thought it enough to have a representative in
London, a literary man, a business man, or a
man who was both. The system was simple
and efficient in leisurely days, but now some-
thing more is needed to meet the keen compe-
tition for new books.
"So tihere grows an intimacy of the English-
American 'book market, which will have 'its ef-
fect on English-American literature, because
that is inevitable and good. It must tend to a
closer "note" in the books of English and Amer-
ican writers, without hurting the national char-
acteristics of either. Authors will know they
are to be published as actively in New York as
in London, in London as in New York, and
instinctively they will seek a common literary
denominator of subject, "note," and expression.
"By and by — who knows? — some of our en-
terprising publishers may be setting up branch
houses in Japan, or linking up working arrange-
ments with Japanese publishers. You see, the
educated Japanese, having, for the material pro-
gress of their nation, studied English, are now
'.fond readers of books written in English.
Moreover, they have their own literature, an-
cient and rich in achievement, and why should
they not try Europe with it?"

A Religious Book Number
OVER a score of religious .periodicals
have sent word of their completed plans
for a special Religious Book Week number,
and one of these, the Continent, has already
published a notable religious book issue under
date of February 2nd. This number included
an interesting article by Andrew C. Zenos on
"Popular Leaders Among Religious Books,"
including a list of the six best sellers, as had
been reported by the eight bookstores of the
Presbyterian Board of Publication, and a list
of sixty-four other books that made up the
popular items in the experience of these
stores. Another interesting list was a second
semi-annual list of Helpful Books, made up
by the faculty and students of the McCor-
mick Theologtical Seminary. There is also a
very pertinent article entitled "Mr. 'Layman,
Do You Shun Religious Books? by Harry
Clayton Rogers, and a strong editorial on
"Teaching to Read," together with many
pages of reviews of religious books.
Houghton, Mifflin Officers
AT the annual meeting of the directors of
Houghton, Mifflin Company, Edward R.
Houghton was elected President of the Com-
pany to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death
of Mr. Mifflin.
Mr. Houghton, who is a nephew of the late
H. O. Houghton. the founder of the House,
lives in Cambridge. He has been connected
with the Company since his graduation from
Amherst College in 1893. He has more re-
cently held the position of Managing Director
of the Riverside Press, in addition to being a
member of the Executive Committee of the
Board of Directors.
The other officers elected were : James Dun-
can Phillips, Vice-President and Treasurer, and
Roger L. Scaife, Clerk, which in New York
law is equivalent to secretary.

Houghton Mifflin Night in
Philadelphia
X February i6th, at the Franklin Inn Club
the Philadelphia Booksellers held their
much heralded Houghton-Mifflin Night. The
Association was genuinely appreciative of the
great honor conferred upon it by the visitors
from Boston. Everything possible was done
to welcome them properly. There was a tem-
perature of five degrees above, but a heavy fall
of snow that was promised, failed to arrive on
time to make the New Englanders feel per-
fectly at home. For a week all the book shop
windows displayed the legend "Houghton-
Mifflin Week," and the few unbookish in-
habitants must have wondered What a "Hough-
ton-Mifflin" was. Yes, there are a few un-
bookish people in Philadelphia ; of course not
so few as Boston, but still a few.
Peter Reilly, the president, presided, and
after a few happily chosen words of welcome,
turned over the meeting to Benjamin Ticknor.
Mr. Ticknor made a short, witty speech and
introduced the toastmaster, Philip S. Marden.
Mr. Marden is a gentleman of genial girth and
soon he had his audience chuckling and in per-
fect humor to enjoy the good things to follow.
Ralph Paine, the first speaker, told some
stories gathered from his very rich store of
personal adventures, many of which took place
or had their origin in Philadelphia. It was
truly refreshing to meet a fictionist who was
not afraid to use some locale other than Phila-
delphia's thriving suburb, New York.
The author of "Roosevelt in the Bad Lands,"
Hermann Hagedorn, with Boswellian fidelity,
told some unpublished anecdotes of the great
T. R.
The program closed with Edward (I.
Lowry's (author of "Washington Close-ups"),
impressions of the personnel of the interna-
tional conference recently concluded at Wash-
ington. He brought "close up" to his hearers
some of the great and near great of the Capitol.
He said they were only human beings after
all ; "some wore low shoes and chewed tobacco,
and some didn't." All felt duly grateful
when he further said that it was only by the
grace of God that some were booksellers in-
stead of statesmen.
The Houghton, Mifflin party, besides, the
speakers, included Frank Bruce and Harrison
Leussler.
F. V. M.
E. T. A. Hoffman, the German author, died
Tune 22, 1822, and the Germans are preparing
to celebrate the hundredth anniversary of hi>
death. A tablet was recently unveiled on the
house in which he was born at Konigsberg.

A Best Seller
As the boy who tended the newsstand was
absorbed in reading a book, I hunted around
until I found the magazine I wanted and then
approached him. When I spoke to him he did
not raise his eyes from the page but held out
his hand for the coin and dropped it auto-
matically into the till. I said :
"Where's the change?"
"What did you get?" he replied, still with-
out looking up.
I told him.
"How much is it?" he asked.
I said I did not know.
"Can't you read it on the cover?" he in-
quired crossly.
Thus admonished I searched the cover until
I found the price mark tucked away in the
hair of the pretty girl picture. When I told
the newsdealer he tossed the change over the
counter. One of the coins rolled on the floor,
but I recovered it while the boy read on.
Curious to learn the nature of the book he
was reading I glanced over his shoulder at
the title.
It was called "The Science and Art of
Salesmanship."

The Publishers' Weekly
Rubber In Paper Making
ANEW process in paper making has appar-
ently been discovered according to Viice
Consul Wade Blackard, stationed at Singapore.
This is the use of latex rubber in paper mak-
ing. The process is recorded an the New York
Times.
"The discovery of the process, which has been
patented, is attributed to Frederick Kaye. It is
claimed for the discovery, according to Mr.
Blackard, that it will not only reduce the cost
of paper making materially and simplify paper
making methods, but that it will greatly im-
prove the quality of the product. ~:For example,'
Mr. Blackard goes on in a report to the Depart-
ment of Commerce.
'Experiments were made to show that with
an ordinary fibre made into a paper containing
one-tenth of I per cent, of rubber the product
had a folding number of 5,000 to 6,000 and a
tensile strength of two or three times that of
the same material made without rubber. With
a rubber content of about 75-iooths of i per
cent, the folding number reached 14,500, while
the same paper made in the usual manner had a
folding number of 30.
'Another fibre, 'beaten for half the usual time
and made into a paper containing i per cent, of
rubber, had a folding strength number of 72,-
500 and a tensile strength of 87 pounds for a
strip one inch wide. This is equal to 6,600
pounds per square inch, or about twice the
strength of a well-vulcanized rubber compound,
such, for example, as is used in tires. The
bursting strength was about 40 pounds for a
thickness of one-tenth of a millimeter.' ''
Printing in England
"Lithographers, printers, and binders have
enough to do for the present, but they regard
the future with some anxiety," says the Leipzig
correspondent of the Manchester Guardian.
"Prices are uncertain, and it is very difficult
to get paper. The paper mills cannot work
much. Either they have no coals or, on account
of the dry summer, no cellulose. Export busi-
ness, which is so important for the lithographic
industry, is very limited at present, especially
with England since the anti-dumping legislation.
The countries alj our eastern frontiers and
Russia can hardily be thought of ; neithier
Austria, on account of the exchange. Switzer-
land and France have passed strict laws against
imports, and so the Northern countries are
the only ones which can be taken into con-
sideration."
JOHN LANE, LTD., of London, reports that the
limited edition of "Jurgen," 3000 copies, issued
last November, has been completely sold out.
DOUBLEDAY, PAGE & Co. have just published
an attractive series bound in lambskin, The
Lambskin Library, at the extraordinary price
of $.90 a volume. Twenty-five titles have so
far been announced, and of these, fourteen are
now ready.
A Book List on Japan
THE problems of the Pacific and the Far
Eastern nations, which has been so much
to the front in the political world, is, of
course, of continuing interest always in the
field of church and missionary endeavor, and
no group is more conscious of the importance
of the recent Conference and of the decisions
made, as a failure to settle to some extent, at
least, the problems of the Far East would be a
signal failure for progressive Christianity.
The Federal Council of Churches has is-
sued a special pamphlet on the problems of the
Pacific and the Far East to be used by study
classes, and in connection with the pamphlet
they present a reference list of what they con-
sider the best books for the study of Japan.

The Booksellers' Convention
THE Washington Convention, the plans for
which are now rapidly being completed,
will offer many attractions because of its be-
ing held, in the national Capitol, and the
Committee is endeavoring to lay its plans so
that full advantage of this can be taken by the
delegates. Instead of beginning, as usual, on
Tuesday, the sessions open on Monday, May
8th. There is entertainment planned for
every evening, and all day Thursday is to be a
play day, the final executive session being
finished on Wednesday afternoon.
The Committee on the Program lays em-
phasis on the fact that there will be a great
deal of practical discussion from the floor
after some topic of current interest has been
presented. The Committee on Entertainment
is especially anxious that the Convention shall
be self-supporting, and there will be a fee of
ten dollars covering not only the banquet, as
has usually been the case, but the other
entertainment expenses as well. This will
provide a fund for the local committee to
work with that has not heretofore existed.
A French Book-Trade Catalog
A VERY interesting catalog for the use of
French booksellers has just been issued
from the Office Pour La Propagation du Livre
Frangais, 117 Boulevard Saint-Germain, Paris.
This catalog as intended to supply booksellers
with a list that they can put in the hands of
their customers, giving the names of the prin-
cipal works which are for sale on the French
bookstores, arranged under subject classifica-
tion and indexed by title. The first volume at
hand covers fiction ; memoirs and letters ; es-
says and miscellanies ; poetry ; and the theater.
The catalog iis *,l/2 *7lt/2 inches in height, gives
the price of the book and the publisher's name
in code ; this code to be only known to the book-
seller so that the person to whom the catalog
is given by him will not order direct from the
publisher.
The introduction states that this first list in-
cludes only works written in French that offer
literary interest, and, while it does not claim
to be exhaustive, aims to (include every work
of acknowledged merit or undoubted notoriety
which is now in the stock of French book-
sellers. The books included are those from the
date of 1800 up to the year 1920. Part 2
of the catalog will include French classic
literature up to the year 1800, ancient and
Eastern literature and modern literature of
other countries. It will also include books
on literary criticism and the history of lit-
erature. This catalog would be of gireat
value to American libraries for booksellers
who would like to have in compact form a
reference list of the available literature of
France. The price of each section is 2 francs.
After the publication of these two sections on
literature, there will be other lists ; history
and geography ; fine arts ; science and tech-
nology ; law, philosophy and religion ; prac-
tical information ; pedagogy ; books for
children.
Worth All thou Hast
THAT the question of book prices and book
values is an old one is very interestingly evi-
denced by a quotation from Richard de Bury's
"Philobiblon" which has been pointed out by a
subscriber. Richard de Bury died in 1345, but
his work is still beloved among all who read
or handle books. "Philobiblon" was first print-
ed at Cologne in 1473, and the first English
edition, in 1598-99-
WHAT WE ARE TO THINK OF THE PRICE IN THE
BUYING OF BOOKS
From Chapter Three of De Bury's Philobiblon,
E. C. Thomas translation.
From what has been said we draw this cor-
ollary welcome to us, but (as we believe) ac-
ceptable to few : namely, that no dearness of
price ought to hinder a man from the buying
of books, if he has the money that is demanded
for them, unless it be to withstand the malice
ai the seller or to await a more favorable op-
portunity of buying. For if it is wisdom only
that makes the price of books, which is an infi-
nite treasure to mankind, and if the value of
books is unspeakable, as the premises show,
how shall the bargain be shown to be dear
where an infinite good is being bought? Where-
fore, that books are to be gladly bought and
unwillingly sold, Solomon, the sun of men,
exhorts us in the Proverbs : Buy the truth, he
says, and sell not wisdom. But what we are
trying to show by rhetoric or logicj let us
prove by examples from history. The arch-
philosopher Aristotle, whom Averroes regards
as the law of Nature, bought a few books of
Speusippus straightway after his death for 72,-
ooo sesterces. Plato, before him in time, but
after him in learning, bought the book of Phil-
olaus the Pythagorean, from which he is said
to have taken the Timaeus, for 10,000 denaries,
as Aulus Gellius relates in the Noctes Atticae.
Now Aulus Gellius relates this that the foolish
may consider how wise men despise money in
comparison whh books. And on the other hand,
that we may know that folly and pride go to-
gether, let us here relate the folly of Tarquin
the Proud in despising books, as also related
by Aulus Gellius. . . . What did this Sibyl
teach the proud king by this bold deed, except
that the vessels of wisdom, holy books, ex-
ceed all human estimation ; and, as Gregory
says of the kingdom of Heaven : They are
worth all that thou hast?

Women and Bookselling
A Monthly Department of News and Theory — Edited by Virginia Smith Cowper
CHARLES CALIHVF.LL
DOBIE
TH E February
i6th meeting of
the Women's Na-
tional Book Asso-
ciation could well
have been called
"California Night,"
for beside the two
speakiers, Charles
Caldwell Dobie, and
Ruth Comfort Mit-
chell, there were
several members present from the "golden
stati1.1' It was probably the liveliest meeting
which has been held an some months, inasmuch
as the discussions ran from the writing to the
advertising and selling of books.
Alice Duer Miller, who was scheduled to
speak, found that she could not be present at
the last moment and her place was very ably
filled by Ruth Comfort Mitchell (Mrs. William
Sanborn Young), author of "Play the Game"
(Appleton).. "The Night Court and other
Poems" (Century), and a new book, just off
the press, "Jane Journeys On" (Appleton).
Miss Mitchell, brought with her the breath
of the out-of-doors, as her personality is such
as one would know at once that she has been
identified with the great open spaces of the
mountains. She told of her work and of the
little cabin in the Monterey country along the
Sur River, an which she does her writing, and
she spoke also of her hopes for the future.
Charles Caldwell Dobie, author of "Broken
to the Plow1' and "The Blood Red Dawn"
(Harper), a San Franciscan, devoted much of
his talk to the present school of novel writing,
which held the theory that an author ought
to write autobiographically and have a cer-
tain spirit of propaganda. His discussion
was siimple, and charmingly unaffected and filled
with rich quotations from various authors to
shed light on the vexed questions for the
writer who was just beginning to feel his way.
He stated that the novelists of today lacked a
sense of repose, and the art of suggestion. He
stated that in his opinion Dostoievski and
Turgenev show a perfection of technique and
great sense of repose. Mr. Dobie then entered
whole-heartedly into the discussion of correct
advertising for books, and as to which was the
wisest way to get a "book to sell as was shown
in the case of ''Main Street" and "Brass."
Everyone present seemed to have ideas on the
subj ect and stated that • they knew at once 'by
the sales of certain books if the advertising
was "pulling."
During the business meeting, which followed
the speaking, Winifred Stuart Gibbs, author of
"The Minimum Cost of Living" (Macraillan),
and "Economical Cooking" (Cupples & Leon),
presented to the members a pilan for the
nationwide campaign for increasing the sale
of 'books thru the Women's National Book
Association, by which the Association would
have "at the end of a year accurate information
of conditions and accomplishment for every
town and rural district in the United States."
While every one present thought well of the
plan as a whole, there was present with every
one a feeling that the plan as drawn, was much
too elaborate for an organization so young and
still comparatively small, and Miss Gibbs was
asked to draw up other plans, which would meet
the immediate needs of the Association, as the
members felt that the Association was not yet
strong enough to hold mass-meetings in cities
and small towns over the United States, which
formed part of the outline.
The Cosmopolitan Book Corporation pre-
sented to each member a copy of "The Go-
getter" by Peter B. Kyne.
At the dinner of the Bookseller's League, in
New York, on February I5th, Ralph Wilson,
president, paid a high compliment to Bessie
Graham and the classes in bookselling which
she is conducting at the New York Public
Library, and at which her book, "The Book-
man's Manual (R. R. Bowker Co.) is being
used as a textbook. Mr. Wilson spoke very
highly of this course in general and of its
value to all booksellers.
All plans are now made for the annual
dinner of the Women's National Book Asso-
ciation, which is to 'be held this year in the
Winter Garden (24th floor) of the Hotel Mc-
Alpin on March 9th. There are to be only
three speakers, and all of them known where-
ever books are sold: Willa S. Gather, E.
Phillips Oppenheim, who has just arrived in
America, and Hugh Lofting, author of "Dr.
Doolittle" (Stokes). After the speaking there
is to be produced a novelty directed by Madge
Jenison and Belle M. Walker called "Sello-
phones," written by Ethel R. Peyser, which
are records of Sappho, Heywood Broun,
Shakespeare, Charlotte Bronte and Harold
Bell Wright. This wonderful new invention
will be demonstrated by Alexander Black.
Tickets for the dinner may be obtained
from Edith Jackson, care of F. A. Schwartz,
303 F'i/fth Ave., New York, at $3.50 each.

Dean of American Booksellers
WHEN1 E. P. Button reached his ninety-
first birthday in January, the PUB-
LISHERS' WEEKLY celebrated that event
by some account of the life of that veteran pub-
lisher, certainly the dean of the American pub-
lishing trade. If a dean of booksellers were to
be chosen, the honor must fall to Timothy
Nicholson of Richmond, Indiana, who has
passed the ninety-third year and still goes daily
to his bookstore, now conducted by his
sons, Thomas and John, tho Mr. Nicholson
himself still buys the Bibles and other re-
ligious books. He also finds time and energy
to attend to a large variety of social and civic
duties.
Timothy Nicholson was born on a farm in
North Carolina in 1828 of Quaker parents.
He attended a Friends' Academy near his
home and from 1847-1848 a Friends' High
School in Providence, R. I. He was later
a principal of the North Carolina Friends'
Academy and afterwards an instructor in
the Friends' College at Haverford, Pa. In
1860, he and his younger brother opened a
bookstore in Richmond. This firm antedates
even the well-known firm of McClurg, and is
one of the oldest firms under its original
name in the state of Indiana.
When in 1874 the book-trade convention met
in Cincinnati the American Book-Trade
Union was formed by the retailers of the
middle west, the earliest American publish-
ers' association, under the presidency of a mid-
dle westerner, Isaac B. Aston. Timothy
Nicholson was one of the founders of the
new organization and was elected its first
Treasurer. The Book-Trade Union had but
a brief career of a few years ; Timothy
Nicholson is its only surviving leader.
Mr. Nicholson has always been devout and
active in religious affairs. He has occupied
every office an the Friends' Church except
that of preacher. When in 1877 the first
general conference of Friends in America was
held in Richmond, Mr. Nicholson was made
the Chairman of the Committee on Arrange-
ments. These conferences 'have been held
every five years in Richmond or in Indian-
apolis, and Mr. Nicholson has always been
a delegate to them. When the Indiana Friends
celebrated their one hundredth anniversary,
Mr. Nicholson presided at the centennial
services. For forty-nine years he was a trus-
tee of Earlham College of Richmond and for
thirty years member and Secretary of its
Financial Board.
Mr. Nicholson has been equally interested
in state and social betterment. For six years
he was a trustee of the Indiana State Normal
School, appointed by two governors, and for
nineteen years he was a member of the Indi-
ana Board of Charities, receiving his appoint-
ment from six governors, both Republican
and Democratic. This service on the Board
of Charities he performed without salary,
visiting and inspecting state and county insti-
tutions, attending meetings of board, state
and national conferences and prison associa-
tions. In 1908, when Mr. Nicholson was in

his eightieth year, he resigned this office, and
the leading citizens of the state celebrated his
birthday and expressed their appreciation of
his devoted and faithful work by giving a
banquet in his honor. Mr. Nicholson has al-
ways taken an active interest in the Social
Service Bureau of the Y. M. C. A. When the
Indiana Anti-Saloon League was organized in
1898, he was chosen President and has con-
tinued to hold that office ever since.
When the Oxford Bulletin wrote up an ac-
count of the remarkable career of Mr.
Nicholson a few years ago, it was said, "He
is certainly the grand old man of the book-
trade."

A
COLLECTED edition of the works of
Hamlin Garland is under way.
The demand for the first editions of O.
Henry must have greatly diminished, for
eight volumes of his first editions sold the
other day at auction for only $17.50, and this
too with a room full of collectors and book-
sellers.
Walter M. Hill of Chicago has recently pub-
lished a thin volume of sonnets by an anony-
mous author printed by John Henry Nash of
San Francisco making a real typographic
gem.
A collection of O. Henry letters bearing
the title "Letters to Lithopolis," written to
Miabel Wagnalls, will be brought out this spring
by Doubleday, Page & Co., in their series of
de luxe, numbered volumes.
The current catalog of C. F. Libbie & Co.,
of Boston is devoted entirely to Massachusetts
history, including state, county, town and local
history, biography, centennial orations, vital
records, numbering nearly looo items.
The Vailima edition of Stevenson's "Works"
has been oversubscribed in both England and
America, the subscriptions coming mainly from
individual customers, and all this too before
the publication of the fourth of the twenty-six
volumes.
A collection of important consignments from
over sea comprising rare French and English
classics; unusual tracts on Ireland; books on
Mary Stuarts Cromwell and the Commonwealth
period; handsome bindings by English mas-
ters, together with the remainder of the library
of Daniel F. Appleton of this city, will be
sold at the Anderson Galleries March 6, 7 and 8.
There were several new high record prices
in the Riverside Press Special Edritions sold at
the Coutant sale, among them Boccaccio's "Life
of Dante" which brought $29. The demand
for books designed by Bruce Rogers is steadily
growing and since it is based, uspon such
intelligent appreciation of good printing it is
pretty sure to continue in coming years.
The greatest of all of the Dickens collec-
tions in value, the association first editions,
letters and manuscripts brought together by
Harry B. Smith of this city, bought several
years ago by the Rosenbach Company of Phila-
delphia, has recently been sold to William B.
Elkins, of Elkins Park, Penn. Dr. Rosenbach
originally asked $135,000 for it and it is not
likely he was persuaded to part with it for
less.
Thomas F. Madigan has resumed the pub-
lication of his Autograph Bulletin, the new
series beginning with the January number, and
he offers to mail it to all active autograph
collectors without ^charge ; to others who wish
to receive it for its biographical and historical
data it will be sent regularly for one dollar a
year. This number contains four unpublished
letters of Abraham Lincoln and one of Wash-
ington, the latter reproduced in facsimile, and
long extracts from many valuable literary and
historical letters of famous men and women.
The ancestral home of Myles Standish, at
Standish Hall, in the parish of Standish, near
Wigan, Lancashire, the house having been
occupied by the Standish family since before
the Norman 'Conquest, is to be brought to
America and sold. The very rooms in which
the Pilgrim leader was born and lived are to
be brought intact. Before the end of the
year -it is possible that the four rooms of the
Standish home may be fitted into the house of
some wealthy American whose family history
in this country goes back to Mayflower days.
The educational influence of the display of
art collections, the observance of centenaries
of famous men, women and historical events,
in our larger public and university libraries
has been reflected in the demand for books to
satisfy the interest aroused. Frequently bib-
liographies have been compiled and published
in connection with such exhibitions making the
resources of the libraries easily and fully
available. The success of these exhibitions fore-
shadows a greatly increased educational value of
the public library system. Probably in the near
future there will be a loan system between
libraries devised that will greatly increase the
usefulness of exhibition material and encourage
its collection. For instance, the Roosevelt col-
lection that everyday is attracting large num-
bers to the exhibition room of the New York
Public Library could no doubt be effectively
and successfully exhibited in a half dozen large
cities.
The half century between 1825 and 1875 has
frequently been called the golden age of the
old book business. The decade beginning with
the Hoe sale, in 191 1, however, far surpasses
any other period of its length. The gathering
of rarities in such great collections as those
March 4, 1922
563
of J. Carter Brown, James Lenox, Henry E.
Huntingdon and scores of others, which 'have
or will become a part of the great public and
university libraries of the New World will
make it impossible some day to continue book
collecting along old lines such as made the col-
lections of the Robert Hoe, Henry Huth and
Christie Miller famous. Tlhe ingenuity of book-
sellers and the highly organized auction houses,
supported by an increasiing army of collectors,
will require new worlds to conquer and they
will not be easy to find.
The creation of a great reference library to
supplement the art collection left to this crity
by Henry C. Frick is under way at the Frick
home, Fifth Avenue and Seventieth Street. The
plan includes the collection, arrangement and
indexing of photographic reproductions of all
the paintings and drawings of the last eight cen-
turies of western civilization. The task is al-
most inconceivably great. An art biographical
reference work planned in Germany before the
war listed more than 100,000 artists, and of
many artists work there is almost no end. The
greatest of all, Michelangelo, left nearly 1,000
paintings and sketches. The Library of Con-
gress, whose collection makes no pretence at
completeness in any direction, contains 330,000
prints. America at present has nothing which
at all fills the need of the great collection
planned and it will doubtless be a great help to
all who are interested academically, in profes-
sions or business with which art ds linked. As
the New York Herald points out "the historian,
the novelist, the playwright, the decorator, the
theatrical producer, the costumer, the furniture
maker — all will 'have at their command, when
the work is given to. the public, the most com-
plete collection of its kind ever assembled."
The sale of the library of the late Dr. R. V.
Coutant of Tarrytown at Anderson Galleries
February 20, 21, 22 and 23 will encourage many
who have a love for good books and buy them,
not according to collectors' standards, but for
their own satisfaction. Dr. Coutant bought the
books that he personally prefered, collecting
them slowly over a long period. The 1,658 lots
brought $18.877.45, probably considerably more
than they cost him. The most valuable item of
all was Washington's copy of the sixth volume
of Goldsmith's "Animated Nature," London,
1/89, with Washington's autograph on the title
and his bookplate on the inside of the front
cover, wihich brought $875. The first edition of
the "Court Martial Proceedings" respecting Ma-
jor Andre with autograph letters and documents
of the entire 'board of officers which tried him.
realized $825. The great bulk of the library
consisting of choice books of moderate value
generally brought good prices, collectors and
dealers competing freely for them. The market
for rare and desirable books seems to be grow-
ing more and more dependable every year.
There are few new high records without good
reason at the same time few items are now
"passed" and really desirable books on tine
average bring about all they are worth, fre-
quently more than a bookseller can afford to
pay for them. F. M. H.

and its treatment of the eternal triangle is startlingly unusual. Third Printing.

and romance. Third Printing. $1.75

There is scarcely a phase of our life today which
is not, to some degree, influenced or controlled by
the automatic machine.
Beginning with a study of industrial and social
conditions in Flint, Michigan, Mr. Pound con-
siders the problem in its national aspects. He
shows clearly that The Iron Man has brought
the world leisure which it is not yet fitted to
employ1 profitably, and points out the fact that our
youth are at the top of their earning power'before
they have acquired good sense or know how to
spend their earnings wisely.

FINDING YOUTH
By Nelson Andrews
What shall 7 be at sixty? Who has not asked
himself the question? Who does not long for the
assurance that the last years of life are the gold
at the foot of the rainbow, rather than the setting
of the sun ?
Every person to whom the certainty of age
recurs as a haunting spectre to dim the brighter
time of youth and maturity should read this
story of a man who found himself after the world
had discarded him, a_ man who has "come back"
and who has determined to share his secret of
living with all who will profit by his experience.
The appeal of this book is as universal as the
problem of age itself.

KA THLEEN NORRIS
KATHLEEN NORRIS was once a libra-
rian at the Mechanics' Library, San Fran-
cisco, and after the earthquake she clerked
together with her sister in Paul Elder's
Book Shop. "In the library days," she
says, "it was Mrs. Ward's 'Lady Rose's
Daughter' and Jack London's 'Call of the
Wild' that were in demand; later, in
the little temporary book store in Van
Ness Avenue, we introduced San Fran-
cisco to Locke's first novels, and de
Morgan's 'Joseph Vance.' " Earlier than that, a young girl, she lost
both parents and was faced with the problems of supporting brothers
and sister. These hardships were repaid when, in New York, she met
the editors who praised her first novels, and began a remarkably suc-
cessful career. To-day she enjoys the fruits of her creed — optimism,
believer of simplicity, kindness, home, children, people, Nature — dwell-
ing on her California ranch, in the shade of great redwoods, with her
husband, Charles G. Norris, who also is a famous novelist. Her suc-
cesses accumulate, now including Harriet and the Piper, The Heart
of Rachael, Josselyn's Wife, Martie the Unconquered, Mother, Satur-
day's Child, Sisters, the Story of Julia Page, and The Beloved Woman.

Another volume by the master story-teller
ONE MAN'S VIEW
A novel by Merrick, even if he chose most hackneyed, plot in print, would impress you
as something' entirely novel and wholly delightful. In this one instead of showing you
again an unsatisfied wife yielding to the dangled bait of an "ideal companionship" with
another man than her own husband, he tells the story of the man left behind as only
Merrick can tell it. There is no one who can be mentioned in his class for keen
perception, and a certain comforting, whimsical sympathy, which the reader feels even
while he realizes that some of his own most carefully concealed human foibles' are being
exposed without mercy and quite without wrath.
Uniform with "Conrad in Quest of His Youth." "The Actor-Manager," "Cynthia,"
"The Position of Peggy Harper," "When Love Flies Out of the Window," "The Man
Who Understood Women," "The House of Lynch," "The Worldings," "The Chair on
the Boulevard." Each, $1.90
THE HANDS OF NARA By RICHARD WASHBURN CHILD
The leading characters are two: a sensitively-organized Russian girl, a refugee,
innocently delighting in her apparently mysterious but undeniable success in bringing
back to life some who have been near to death; the other is a self-contained, highly
scientific physician whose modern! training leaves no room for faith in anything occult.
Their contacts and conflicts make an interesitng story, told with vigor and sweep in
refreshingly good English.

HIS DOG
By ALBERT PAYSON TERHUNE
The story of how Link Ferris finds a wounded dog by the roadside, and in nursing its
injury realizes a sense of genuine companionship so new to his life that it serves as a
stimulus to redemption. "He's learned me that livin* is wuthwhile," is Ferris's plea
when the owners, by right of purchase, claim him. Warm human interest, pathos, homely
humor and an unexpected ending, make of it an exceptionally appealing dog story well
worth placing beside "Lad" or "Bruce." $1.50
ALBERT PAYSON TERHUNE is author of the two most widely read dog stories of
this century. "Lad: a Dog," and "Bruce." Each, $2.00
HIS SERENE HIGHNESS
By H. C. BAILEY
One of those refreshing books so far to seek in modern fiction in which a gallant

suddenly into a web of plot and counterplot in which the succession to A throne tangles
the magic thread of a subtle, fascinating love story.

BARBARA JUSTICE

LILIA CHENOWORTH

Remarkably successful Button novels
BRASS: A Novel of Marriage
By CHARLES G. NORRIS
The Montreal Star comments upon the keen interest the reading public is manifesting
in the book, and continues: "Mr. Norris is neither doctrinaire or bigot. He simply
paints a series of pictures and lets them tell the unadulterated truth. They are pictures
that make a great impression. There are passages in 'Brass' which hold the lyric
beauty of a nightingale's song at midnight; others again which in their stark realism,
leave nothing to the imagination, though they never impress one as designedly brutal,
or intentionally cruel. His realism is designed, but it is justified. The result is electric
at times; always impressive." The 4Oth edition was published March i. $2.00.
MR. NORRIS is author also of "Salt, or The Education of Griffith Adams," a
tremendously keen and penetrating analysis of the conditions which influence young
men in school, college and business life. $2.00
SIMON CALLED PETER
By ROBERT KEABLE
Of this "strong and illuminating wartime story, quite unlike any other war novel or
book" (Phila. Ledger), The Boston Transcript says: "Undeniably it is a remarkable
thing to have done — to have taken such a man as Peter Graham and carried him through
the fierce crisis of this story, fearlessly and unfalteringly. Then Julie — how few authors
could have seen or depicted Julie! She is wayward and intoxicating and tender. She is
gay and observing, friendly and loyal, and in the end she is strong, strong beyond most.
Most of all, she is lovable."
Life calls it "A good book that deserves to be widely read."
Thirteen editions, called for in the first six weeks'. $2.00
THE BLACK DIAMOND
By FRANCIS BRETT YOUNG
A story which well exhibits that characteristic union of idealism and realism which,
in Hugh Walpole's opinion, accounts for his high rank among modern writers of fiction.
As the. Son Francisco Journal puts it "Here is an author who has realism by the
forelock- and, instead of making it crawl through the mud, he exalts it into the realm
of higher drama, where it belongs."
The N. V. Tribune says: "There are few passages in recent fiction that surpass in
brilliancy of conception, of clashing moods, those that give flame and sustained fire to
the closing chapters of 'The Black Diamond/ " $2.00
BRETT YOUNG'S other novels are: "The Crescent Moon" ($2.00), "The Young
Physician" ($2.50) "The Tragic Bride" ($2.00), and (iti collaboration with his brother)
"Undergrowth" ($2.00).

DR. CLIFFORD SMYTH writes: "Congratulations! I think it is superb. I don't
know when I have read such a vivid narrative of adventure* one that has left me with
so thrilling a sense of having myself witnessed the scenes and known the people that fill
PROFESSOR WILLIAM STEARNS DAVIS writes that the book "besides being an
excellent tale of adventure, possesses a truly 'Defoesque' quality of circumstantial
narration which makes Imperial Rome live again, even to the most unimaginative
readers."

history in our literature "El Supremo" ($2.50); of "The Unwilling Vestal;" and of

THE ISLAND CURE
By GRACE BLANCHARD
Public Library, Concord, N. H.
Illustrated from Photographs, Picture Jacket in Colors from Painting by
EMIL POLLAK«OTTENDORFF. Price $1.50
Bright and more than merely pretty Jean Beverley needed a vacation, and
was advised to take the "island cure," — not the overworked South Sea islands,
but some of the captivating ones on the New England Coast: Isles of Shoals,
Orr's Island, Bailey's in Casco Bay, Monhegan, Islesford, Mt. Desert, and Nan-
tucket. For sparkling charm of conversation and piquancy of description, this
unusual and refreshing novel, just suited for summer reading, and good for any
other time, will not soon find its equal.

THE PLAY OF AUCTION HANDS
By E. E. DENISON
284 pages, including 100 Illustrative Hands printed in Black and Red, with a page of
explanation for each and Latest Complete Rules of New York Whist Club. Price, $2.00
AUCTION, most interesting of card games, often gives a surprising amount
of information through inferences that can be drawn from the bidding, the
dummy hand, and the four cards played to a trick. Its enjoyment increases with
the skill acquired in "reading" the fall of cards, and applying the information
thus obtained.
THE PLAY OF AUCTION HANDS, after a sound discussion of funda-
mentals, shows in a series of one hundred hands the various forms of card
strategy, together with the reasons that determine the play; thereby enabling
one soon to enter into the higher pleasure of the game more fully than can be
done from years of ordinary playing.
The author's unusual knowledge is placed at the disposal of all who care
to share it. Mr. Denison won the closest Whist Tournament recorded, winning
by a hundredth of a trick, over his nearest competitor, the late J. B. Elwell, after
sixteen weekly sessions of play (49.66 tricks to 49.65).
Hence, to read this book is to be admitted to a wider acquaintance with
Auction than falls to the lot of any save the most expert. It can benefit all,
from the novice to those interested only in advanced problems.

THE WRECK-HUNTERS
By DR. FRANCIS ROLT- WHEELER
With Forty Illustrations from Photographs. Price $1.75
"Sunken treasure has been a lure to man ever since oars first dipped iii
water or wind swelled a sail." This quotation gives the key to the most absorb-
ing book for boys that can be imagined, and almost equally interesting to those
older. Nor does it lack the great amount of accurate information always to be
gained from Dr. Roll- Wheeler's books of this nature. With young Latimer Voley,
son and grandson of the most famous "wreckers" of the Bahamas, as a central
figure, we are shown how sunken millions are salvaged, requiring the most expert
nautical and mechanical skill, and the utmost bravery. The thrilling superstitions
of the sea are naturally and entertainingly brought in. One leaves the book with
greatly increased knowledge, and more respect for the mighty deep and the skill
and endurance of those who brave it. For boys of fifteen and upwards.
PEGGY PRETEND
By MILLICENT EVISON
Author of "Rainbow Gold"
Illustrated by EDNA F. HART HUBON. Picture Jacket in Colors. Price $1.75
Here is a book of love and laughter, for its charming little heroine is a
veritable Joy Girl, whose quaint fairy wisdom enables her to make life a wonder-
ful game of "Let's Pretend," and justifies her whimsical nickname, — Peggy
Pretend.
The story tingles with the merry music of Peggy's "joy bells," for her jolly
escapades and laughable blunders create many incidents of thrilling excitement
and lively interest. There are missing jewels which Peggy's great-grandmother
concealed in a strange hiding-place during the Civil War; there is a mysterious
mountain cave where Peggy has an exciting adventure; and there is the miracle!
A book that will give life a "Joy Treatment" for girls of all ages, — grown-ups
and growing-ups.
THE LITTLE PEOPLE OF THE GARDEN
By RUTH O. DYER
Author of "That's Why Stories," "What-Happened-Then Stories," etc.
With Frontispiece and Picture Jacket in Colors by L. J. BRIDCMAN; also Pen-and-ink Head-
pieces and Other Decorations. Price $1.50
The name of Ruth 0. Dyer commands attention as a highly improving as
well as entertaining writer for young children. She has given her best efforts to
acquainting young readers with the real lives of little creatures near at hand, and
at the same time teaching kindness. Evey suggestion of dryness is avoided by
having bright but thoughtless little Jasper Nichols changed for a time into an
insect under fairy protection. Thus he meets in a friendly way "Miss Apis"
(the bee), "Miss Formica" (the ant), "The Little Plough" (the earthworm),
"Mr. Rana" (the frog), and many other interesting little neighbors, that show
him the wonderful way Nature has fitted them for their lives, and the constant
peril in which they pass them. The information is scientifically accurate. For
children from six to ten.

cause we believed in the
author's future. We did
not expect it to become a
best seller: and it hasn't.
Nevertheless, we have re-
ceived upon it more com-
mendatory reviews, and
these more enthusiastic in
tone, than we have re-
ceived uipon any purely
literary novel by an un-
known writer since we
published Limehouse
Nights by Thomas Bur4ce.
"Exquisite," "charming."
"a genuine contribution to lit-
erature"— These have been, in
general, the kind of comments
the book has evoked.
Autumn is now nearing the
end of its Second Edition. It
is selling steadily, in small quan-
tities, in a manner which indi-
cates that it will continue to be
in demand for a long period.
But there are many localities,
and many more bookstores, in
which the sale is negligible or
non-existent. It is to these book-
stores that this rather uncon-
ventional appeal is directed If
you have done little or nothing
with Autumn — if you have
among your customers people
who are responsive to exquisite
writing, to word pictures deli-
cately conceived and charmingly
exacted — would it not be good
business, as well as pleasant
business, to introduce them to
Robert Nathan's prose .pastoral,

A SERVICE TO HUMANITY
By C. P.
Due to the efforts of the United States
Government during the "vvar and since to
give the people sane enlightenment concern-
ing sex functions and hygiene, a tremendous
nation-wide interest in the subject of sex
has been created, and the public reception
of sex books has undergone an extra-
ordinary change.
Various phases of sex and sex manifesta-
tions are being discussed in the schools, in
the churches, in the press, on the lecture
platform, at social gatherings, and all other
places.
The time for classifying truly helpful, up-
lifting books with "forbidden" literature,
and, selling them sub-rosa, has gone by. It
is now not only the bookseller's privilege
but his duty to help display and spread as
far as possible information which brings
happiness and content to millions of people
and prevents the disruption of homes and
divorce.
This sane and sensible public attitude has
been brought about no more by the efforts
of the United States Government than by
the life-long humanitarian work of Dr.
William J. Robinson, preeminent sexologist
in America. Dr. Robinson ranks absolutely
first in the field. No one else speaks/ with
his authority. No one else has his scientific
standing or prestige.
(Besides being Chief of the Dept. of Genito-
Urinary Diseases and Dermatology at the Bronx
Hospital and Dispensary at 'New York, he is
Fellow of the American Medical Ass'n, Fellow
of the N. Y. Academy of Medicine, Member of tut
N. Y. State Medical Society, American Medical
Editors Association, American Neurological Asso-
ciation, British Society for the Study of Sex
Psychology, Internationale Gesellschaft for Sex-
iialforschung, American Association for the Ad-
vancement of Sciences, etc. Editor of Dr. A.
Jacobi's Collected Works, and Editor of a dis-
tinguished medical and sociological monthly maga-
zine, the Critic and Guide, and the American
Journal ,of Urology and Sexology.}
Xo one has written on the subject of sex
so plainly, so simply, so informingly. Gifted
with a sensitive understanding and sym-
pathy for his fellow-humans, endowed with
a keenly penetrating, subtly analytical mind,
and equipped with a knowledge and medical
experience unrivalled by any other sex-
ologist in America, Dr. Robinson has for
years devoted himself to conferring untold
happiness on men and women everywhere by
lifting their burdens of ignorant misery and
leading them into the road of normal un-
derstanding. A benefactor to the race, Dr.
Robinson's name will go down in history
as one of the few great liberators of man-
kind.

CREASING HIS BUSINESS BY SUPPLYING
THESE BOOKS TO HIS TRADE.

Robinson, foremost authority on sex in America and the most popular writer on th!s

DR. ROBINSON, FOR ETHICAL REASONS, HAS REFRAINED FROM GIVING

We Wonder
Books an the year 'round Gift —
And the
Grosset&DynlapEdiiion
gives you the choice of*
the year's best fiction~
If you, Mr. Dealer, are realizing to
the full the possibilities for tre-
mendous sales in Grosset & Dun-
lap Popular Copyright Fiction.
A little incident that was called to
our attention the other day illus-
trates the vast difference between
the possibilities and the actual
realization in many cases.
A dealer in a certain town was the
only one who was handling Popu-
lar Copyrights. He did a very
good business, but his stock of
Popular Copyrights was displayed
on shelves well in the rear of
the store and he made no special
effort to push the line by making
special displays. They enjoyed a
fair turn-over each year and he was
content with that.
And then one day another dealer in the town became interested in Popular
Copyrights as a live proposition; he advertised, put in window displays,
featured the line prominently in his store, and made it known generally
that he was selling Popular Fiction at a Popular Price.
The response was tremendous. When the first dealer saw what a fine
business the second man was doing he did some hard thinking, with the
result that now both merchants are on their toes, are handling Grosset &
Dunlap Fiction as a feature line, are adding to the pleasure of their
patrons and enjoying a rapidly increasing business.
How are you handling it?
We will be glad to try to help you get bigger results.

ination to the limit. It is an ingeniously tangled
web of criminality, the supernatural, and love.
Richard Marston, a prominent young lawyer,
while attending a house party with old friends, finds
himself involved with the other guests in a mys-
terious murder. Dr. Ben, the old family physician,
and Marston work together with the precision of
fate and in the end the guilty person is cornered.
The book is full of the
danger.

THEN CAME MOLLY
By HARRIET V. C. OGDEN
From a quiet, old-fashioned southern plantation
conies Molly, to restless, hurrying New York. She
begins her life there as an art student under quaint
old Joseph Oliphant, who is almost as lovable as
Molly herself.
Miss Ogden tells with great charm of student life
in New York's art colony, of the earnest, hard-
working, competitive spirit which is as necessary to
art as to business. Molly enters the yearly competi-
tion and a large part of the story concerns her battle
to success against jealousy and misunderstanding.

REVELATION
By DULCIE DEAMEK
"Bright with all the
color of the East"
— Westminster Gazette
A N extraordinary achievement in fiction— combining the
' sensuous and tensely dramatic appeal with a deep
religious inspiration. A novel of this character is bound
to have an immense sale.
REVELATION is a tale of
Jerusalem and of the
lovely slave girl, Astarte,
The book deals very frankly
with the manners of the period,
and there is a vivid and graphic
description of a typical, volup-
tuous Roman banquet. The
color and atmosphere and cus-
toms of an ancient age and of
the emotions and thoughts of
its people are re-created for us
with vividness and beauty and
with an unusual simplicity of
phraseology and style.
Astarte has been trained
from childhood as a dancer —
she had led a life of seclusion
with that profession as an ulti-
mate ambition. Her destina-
tion, she knew, was the house
of some man of wealth. The
account of her sale to Herod,
of her first dance in public,
where Valerius, a Roman, sees
her and desires her, of her
meeting with David, the Jew,
who rescues her and carries
her off with him to;his home, is
done with realism and rare
beauty. Astarte dies of poison
given by a rival and is restored
to life by Jesus. Her adven-
tures after this are dramatic,
as is her death in the arms of
David, the only man who really
understood her innocence of
mind and chastity of spirit.
The
and
which raises it above the head
of mere fiction to heights of
extraordinary power and imag-
ination. It is, in our judgment,
a really great inspirational
book. Book after book of real-
book takes on a deep
sincere religious note
ism is being written nowadays.
We feel that in publishing
REVELATION, a beautiful
and romantic tale of those ad-
venturous days in our early
civilization when girls were
sold in slavery, when Jesus
walked the streets healing the
sick and' .restoring the dead to
life, when women- were stoned
for adultery and looked upon
as the mere playthings of men,
we are gratifying a literary
taste which is none the less fer-
vid because it has been unsatis-
fied.
It is a book throbbing with
poignant sentiment and intense
religious fervour. Dismiss its
beauty of language, its pas-
sages of sheer poetry, as of
only secondary importance, if
you will, and what remains is
a stirring and graphic picture
of the most significant and
thought provoking days in the
history of the world. ' $2.00

New and Forthcoming Harvard Books
From Shakspere to Sheridan
by Alwin Thaler. Ready early in April
Every theatre-goer will find in this charmingly written book both profit and delight. It
treats of the life story of the theatre in Shakspere's time and during the two centuries
.after him, showing how continuous has been the great tradition, how minutely and cir-
cumstantially the theatre of the seventeenth and eighteenth century modelled its activities
upon those of Shakspere and his fellows, and suggesting, in turn, how much the theatre
of our day and hour owes to that of yesterday. The author discusses the playwrights,
the players, the managers, the relations between the theatres and the court, and the play-
houses. He takes the reader, as it were, behind the footlights and into the fascinating
world on the ot'ier side of the curtain. Reproductions of rare items frtom the Harvard
Theatre collection add distinction to the volume.
Universities and Scientific Life in the United States
by Maurice Caullery. $2.50
A guide to the universities and resources for scientific work in America, written with a
truly French charm and definiteness. The author was Exchange Professor from the
Sorbonne at Harvard during the Academic year 1915-16, and his book in the original
French has already done much to strengthen the cordial intellectual relations between our
country and his. In its English form it will be of value to special students of educational
problems in America and also to young people and their parents with higher education or
scientific training in view.
Collected Papers on Acoustics
by Wallace Clement Sabine. $4.00
Professor Sabine's international reputation as an authority on architectural acoustics war-
rants our saying that this volume w'fcll become an indispensable manual for every architect
and building engineer and that it will at the same time have a wide appeal to theatre
managers, church building committees, and directors of auditoriums. There are 131 half-
tones illustrating architectural details, sound waves, experimental apparatus, and other per-
tinent data.
Manual of Collections of Treaties and of Collections
Relating to Treaties
by Denys P. Myers. $7.50. Ready shortly
A manual, in 'bibliographic form, designed to facilitate the task of finding treaty-texts and
thus contributing to accuracy in presenting the activities of the past as a guide to the pres-
ent and the future. The material is arranged under three main headings : General Collec-
tions, Collections by States, Collections by Subject-Matter. Special attention has been given
to the Latin-American reports or Memorias of the ministers of foreign relations. It is a
work of prime importance to students of international relations, history, law^ and related
subjects.
The Influence of Milton
by Raymond D. Havens. Ready shortly
Only the principal subject covered by Professor Haven's book is indicated in the title.
It goes beyond this in making an historical and critical evaluation of the works Milton in-
fluenced, in tracing the course of blank-verse translations and the development oi the prin-
cipal types of unrimed poetry, and in presenting the student with the means for reaching
a better comprehension of the lyric awakening in the eighteenth century. The work fol-
lows the history of non-dramatic blank verse from its beginnings to the boyhood of
Tennyson, and of the sonnet from the restoration of the Stuarts to the accession of Vic-
toria. As a history of English verse from about 1700 to 1850 and as a piece of reasoned
literary criticism, the publication of the book will be an event in American scholarship.
About 800 pages.

FOR RELIGIOUS BOOK WEEK
ART AND RELIGION
By
VON OGDEN VOGT
Pastor of the Wellington Avenue Congregational Church, Chicago
Our Puritan forefathers thought beauty the work of the
Devil — and so were responsible for much of our ugly church
architecture. Mr. Vogt here points the way to a higher con-
ception of religious worship.
"A capital book. The man who glances at the title, 'Art and
Religion,' and thinks instantly of some fantastic treatise on 'art for art's
sake in religion, will be all astray in his judgment. The book is solid,
sensible, and readable." Charles R. Brown.
"The book ought to be read by many ministers, and ought also to
be got into the hands of the lay leaders of our churches. . . .May it
have the large circulation which it deserves." Henry Sloane Coffin.
"I have read your book with a great deal of pleasure and interest,
and have heard most enthusiastic criticism of the entire treatment. I feel
that you have expressed in a very strong way the feeling, which I have
tried a great many times to express in a very limited way." Charles
Collens (of Allen & Collens, Architects, Boston).
"I cannot refrain from offering you my thanks for the delight of
reading a book so instructive, so patiently wise, and so beautiful."
G. A. Johnston Ross, Union Theological Seminary, New York.
"I have just read your book greatly to my interest and profit. I only
wish that I had had it a year or so ago!" From a clergyman who has
just completed a new church building.

THE DISCIPLINES OF LIBERTY
By Willard L. Sperry ,
(Pastor of Central Congregational Church, Boston)
"The essays are both enlightening and refreshing. They charm with their beauty
and stimulate with their fervor. They provoke one to think for one's-self." Henry
Sloane Coffin in The Literary Review.
"We know of few recent books whose perusal will repay so well the minister." The
Christian Register.
"Will make any man bigger who reads it." The Christian-Evangelist.
"Finely reasoned and deeply Christian." The Churchman.

to read in recent months." Federal Council Bulletin.

McClurg's Spring Fiction
4 ' T EX ' ' By Clarence E. Mulford
"TEX" is a thrilling chapter from life on the. plains in the West during the days
when nimble triggers were arbiters of justice. It is the tale of how one man's
daring and superior intelligence outwitted a whole community for the sake) of the
honor of the young woman he loved. From the first page there is the atmosphere
of the wide stretching range and the trails of the Old West. Life as it was lived
in the land of sombreros, chaps and gunbelts is pictured vividly, and the motives,
ambitions, and revenges of the folk of the plains are laid bare. The story fas-
cinates and thrills. Price $1.90.
Square Deal Sanderson was a son of the great uncultured primitive West. An old
time cowboy, his code was the knightly code of a man of honor. He was a sort
of Bayard of the plains, without fear, honest and clean minded. For the sake of
an orphaned girl, he braved successfully, the persecution of a trio of land grabbers
who had threatened to wrest her ranch from her.
The story throbs with the excitement of the wild life of the range. Price $1.90.
CLAIM NUMBER ONE By George W. Ogdtn
CLAIM NUMBER ONE begins with a colorful description of the opening up of
an Indian reservation in Wyoming. Rich men, poor men, beggarmen, thieves im-
pelled by the lure of chance had gathered at the mushroom city of Comanche.
The drawing was to be by lot and the lucky holder of number one was entitled to
first choice of the rich lands. It meant a fortune. Dr. Warren Slavens drew claim
number one, but before he established his ownership he had a hard battle with
crooks and politicians.
The great charm of this story lies in its characterizations and its atmosphere.
Mr. Ogden somehow makes one feel that here is the real thing ; the West in all its
rawness ; its vices and its virtues. Its feet were, it is true, in the dust, but its
head was lifted proudly aloft, and its eyes were directed upward seeing in the skies
the vision of the future. Price $1.90.

THE LOBSTICK TRAIL By Dougfas Durkin
An outdoor story that is as bracing as the tingling intake of a big breath of
northern air; something real and strong and purposeful. It is replete with action
and stirring conflict, with its background of lonely trails, yapping dog teams,
fearless men and splendid women. It's tenderness and greatness that count on
the long pulls and so, while it is a man's story, it's also the kind a woman loves
to read. Price $1.75.

Among the painters dealt with are da Messina, Uccello, della Francesca, Perugino, Catena, tra
Angelico, Botticelli, and others.
It is a book which fills a long felt want and is so simple and so interesting that it cannot fail to
delight old and young alike.

A Novel by SAMUEL MERWIN
A cold, clear brain, a sharp, darting tongue, youth, beauty,
personality and pluck; clothes — gay, short and vivid; no cul-
ture or traditions, little schooling and no advantages — that's
Goldie when she makes her bow. It is a joy to see her go,
and grow; learn to do the right thing, fight and push onward,
succeed in business and prove herself the man of the family,
escape entanglements and marry the man of her choice.

How the Tariff Stands
THE Republican members of the Senate
Finance Committee in closed sessions are
writing a new tariff to be presented to
Congress. Democratic members are as much
outside of the confidence of those writing the
Bill as the public itself. The press news from
Washington seems to indicate that the Bill
is likely to be drawn with the duty levied on
the American wholesale price rather than on
the invoice price or American valuation. In
the case of books, the American wholesale
price would greatly increase the duty, as has
been pointed out in detail to the Congressional
leaders.
Booksellers, especially those in states having
Republican members on the Senate Finance
Committee would do well to use any means in
their power to bring the situation to the at-
tention of these senators, according to the
outline printed in tiie PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY
of February 18.
The Republican members of the Senate
Finance Committee are :
Porter J. MeCuraber, North Dakota; Reed
Smoot, Utah; Joseph S. Frelinghusen, New
Jersey; Robert M. La Follette, Wisconsin;
William P. Dillingham, Vermont; George P.
McLean, Connecticut; Charles Curtis, Kan-
sas; James E. Watson, Indiana; Willam M.
Calder, New York; Howard Sutherland, West
Virginia.
John Macrae, Vice President of E. P. Dut-
ton & Company, was again in Washington be-
fore sailing for Europe, and Ward Bonsall, at-
torney-at-law, 605 Southern Building, Wash-
ington, has been closely following the book-
trade's interest. Dr. M. L. Raney, representing
the libraries and educational interests, was
again in Washington the first of the month.
With the strong pressure on the Repub-
lican Congress to produce something in the
way of a Tariff Bill, it may be that when
this new revision is produced they will be
able to get quick action from the two houses
in spite of reported disagreements between
House and Senate. If this is so, the book-
trade lias never faced a more crucial situation,
writh the rare book business being threatened
with tremendous handicaps with the duty
as levied, the foreign book business in an
equally unfortunate situation and the new book
business placed under handicaps just when
international exchange in ideas is of all things
important.

Spring Book Production
THE list of spring books covering all pub-
lications from the first of January up
to the summer months as far as can be
foretold, consists this year of a little over
two thousand volumes. This is practically
the same number as contained in the announce-
ments of 1921. Both these figures are slightly
less than some of the totals of previous years
andj indicatte that the publishing wiorld is
taking commendable care in the selection of
new titles, so that while the market for books
increases the number of titles for the book-
seller to handle has not increased.
The spring season has greatly increased in
importance in the last few years, as pub-
lishers have shown a very marked inclination
to spread the business thru the year and have
put onto spring lists titles of importance
equal to the fall announcements. This policy
has been justified by the results so far
obtained.
Price Maintenance
WHILE the booksellers, as has been in-
dicated by the letter published last week
from C. E. Butler, are actively to discuss
price maintenance and its importance at the
Washington Convention, there are new aspects
to the problem that are coming to the front
and new and different ways in which the books
are being offered below the announced price.
Books are, of course, among the few items of
merchandise that are always advertised with a
price attached, so that variations from these
announcements are very quickly noted by the
public. It is this fact that makes them so fre-
quently used by department stores as a means of
suggesting to the public that they are in the
habit of selling below other people. Today,
Philadelphia as well as New York is suffering
from a threat of that kind, as Snellenburg's
department store is now featuring some of the
leading fiction.
686
The Publishers' Weekly
Philadelphia is also responsible for the new
cutting in fiction thru the Ladies' Home Jour-
nal, tho the effect of this naturally goes thru
the country. The last text page of the March
number carries this heading, "Let Us Make
You A Present of These Books Cost Free
To You." Then follows a list of eight books :
"The Girls" by Edna Ferber, "Her Father's
Daughter" by Gene Stratton-Porter, "Alice
Adams" by Booth Tarkington, "Main Street"
by Sinclaiir Lewis, "The Brimming Cup" by
Dorothy Canfield, "The Mysterious Rider" by
Zane Grey, "The Obstacle Race" by Ethel M.
Dell, "Dangerous Ages" by Rose Macaulay.
Any of these will be sent postpaid for $1.50 in
connection with a new subscription for the
Ladies' Home Journal. The bookstore would
have to sell them ior about $2.10 postpaid with-
out the magazine. The advertising texts reads :
"Just take your choice of any or all of these
books — each among the most widely popular
of the day. We have culled the whole field of
current fiction to select the books you will
want to read and own. They are all new —
the original editions of the first publishers, not
later cheaper reprints. Already they have been
read by thousands upon thousands of people
who have been glad to pay the full book-store
price for them. There is only one reason for
their immediate wide popularity — they are big,
interesting, worthwhile 'books ; the sort you will
want to read and re-read; the sort you can
>feel proud to present to any relative or friend.
And you may have any or all of them, abso-
lutely without charge, df you will follow the
simple instructions given below."
The booksellers, in commenting on this,
point out that the reason they are "the most
widely popular books of the day" is that they
have been made so thru the bookstores. They
argue that df the book's reputation is made
thru the bookstore, no journal for the sake of
increasing its circulation should buy them any
cheaper than the bookstore buys them, which
would prevent, they point out, any such offer
as the above. They feel that those people "who
have been glad to pay the full bookstore
price" will next time wait a while before
buydng.
Within a few weeks, one of the prominent
religious papers which had not previously spe-
cialized on books announced that it would give
to any minister who was a subscriber a book
service that would include a special discount.
It was felt by those who saw the announcement
that the editor did not realize how much
the book-trade had at stake in avoiding
a drawback to the old discount to ministers
condition, and a letter explaining the situation,
written by President Herr of the American
Booksellers' Association, brought a very cour-
teous acknowledgment from the editor, who
agreed to give up his plan.
In an advertisement of The Independent and
Weekly Review in the Yale Review of Janu-
ary, the following paragraph is found :
A Secret
"We can only whisper it in your ear in
strict confidence : From the moment you be-
come a subscriber, you are entitled to liberal
discounts on all your purchases of books —
books of any kind — so that in the course of
a year you are quite likely to get back con-
siderably more than the cost of your sub-
scription. We'll tell you about it the moment
you become a subscriber."
Foreign Exchange and Books
EVERY industry that has any international
business has reason to be pleased with the
rapid progress that has been made since the
first of the year in leveling up the rates of
foreign exchange, and this is particularly true
with a business like the book-trade, whose
relations are largely with countries where the
gains have been substantial and well sustained.
Pounds sterling are now at about ten per
cent discount on the dollar, which is a tremen-
dous gain when compared with the condition
one year or two years ago. This has the ef-
fect of making the books imported cost more
on this side, but it paves the way for more
interchange of selling, the only sound con-
dition in the long run, and it makes possible
the sale of more American books in England
which was not largely possible under the de-
preciated exchange. The gain in Montreal ex-
change is also very marked, and, instead of a
thirteen or fourteen per cent discount, as would
have prevailed a year ago, the rates are now at
about two per cent discount. Canada is a
very large buyer from the American market
because of its proximity to this source of book
supply and because the type of book published
here and the form in which it is published
proves attractive in the retail stores of Canada.
Under the depreciated exchange, it was diffi-
cult to maintain a parity of price on . both
sides of the border, and it gave the Canadian
publishers and jobbers a decided preference
for English editions when suitable. Many
American publishers have carried credit in
the Canadian banks, in order to make trading
in that direction easy and are now repaid for
their care by the gradual approach to par.
The improvement in this Canadian rate has,
of course, been partly accomplished by the
gain in English exchange. Under normal con-
ditions, Canada accumulates large credits in
London for goods exported there, which she
used in New York for goods purchased here,
so that London becomes an intermediary in
leveling the exchange.

Who Reads Business Books?
By Ethel Cleland
Librarian of Business Branch, Indianapolis Public Library
THE pert answer to the question "who
reads business books?" is the obvious one,
"business men." It is fatally easy, un-
fortunately, to label and even1 visualize groups,
To how many must the term "business man"
bring promptly to mind the cut of the pros-
perous looking, well-dressed individual who,
before a background of efficient office or busy
city glimpsed thru an effective window, is
dictating to an attractive and equally well-
dressed stenographer or handing undoubtedly
important papers to an alert subordinate, again
well-dressed, with which magazine covers and
advertisements have made us familiar to the
point of satiety. Yet everyone knows per-
fectly well that aside ifrom some general basis
of classification as "those engaged in the pro-
duction, buying and selling of goods," business
men are no more cut on a single pattern than
any other large group of human beings and
that they are distinguished individually from
one another by decided differences in char-
acter, temperament, taste, aspirations and needs.
The question "what kind of business books
are most in demand?" would be an easier one
to meet. The answer is, without hesitation.
the practical book on the specific subject. In
flhe presence of an assemblage of business
books, most business men are immediately and
strongly attracted to the ones that deal with
their own kinds of businesses or those closely
allied to them.
Degrees of Popularity
Thus it can readily be seen that books on
accounting, salesmanship, advertising, credit,
business letters, office organization — the books,
in fact, that treat of functions common to
practically all forms of business — are the most
popular in a library of business books, sim-
ply 'because they discuss the problems with
which a majority of those in the business
world are engaged. On the other hand, a
book on the duties of an executive in a large
organization would be most in demand by the
comparatively .small class of executives and
those definitely iin line or ambitious for the
higher offices. It would probably be conserva-
tive to estimate that a good book on selling
would be asked for twenty times when a book,
telling how to organize a corporation — perhaps
a better book intrinsically — would be asked
fur once, the explanation of course being that
there are more men in the selling game than
there are men who are organizing and financ-
ing new business.
But considering the readers, not the books,
the librarian of the business branch of the
public library of a mid-west city, after four
years' experience with business books, can say
without hesitation that the users of business
literature divide up naturally, in her mind,
into three large but rather ill-defined groups.
Advantage of Selection
A man was noticed at frequent irregular in-
tervals wandering around the single room of
this business branch library, examining thought-
fully the books on the open shelves here and
there, taking occasional notes of them, but
never borrowing a volume. A chance question
on his part gave the one in charge the de-
sired opportunity to ask if he did not want
to borrow some of the books in which he
seemed so interested. His reply was in the
negative, but he went on to explain that he
was only in the city as his business brought
him there from time to time and that,
having once stumbled by the merest chance
on this specialized collection, he never failed
to drop in whenever he had an hour to
spend to look over the books. His home city
was a large one with a public library pro-
portionately large where he found it difficult
to get into direct contact with books as he
was able to do in this smaller collection. The
notes he took were just memoranda of authors
and titles of 'books he thought he would like
to read and, armed with these, he could. ap-
proach his own more formidable library and
boldly ask for what he wanted.
There is a moral, of course, in this little
story of which both booksellers and librarians
are already cognizant — the desirability of mak-
ing readily accessible in classified groups the
books in stock.
But further, this man typifies a large and
very interesting class of readers of business
books. He is the man who likes to read, who
wants to know, who has the habit of going
to books, not merely for his own particular
problems in business, but for more than that,
for the broad background that knowledge of
general business1 and of other people's business
gives, and for real enjoyment, to him the
pleasantest way of passing the leisure hour.
He is as interested by a new book on direct
advertising as he is in one that analyzes forms
of investments altho he may be only indirectly
interested in advertising and neither a bond
salesman nor an investor. Discussions of plans
688
The Publishers' Weekly
for better sales organization or up-to-date
methods in factory .personnel work are equally
alive to him and no one T>ut himself knows
how much of what he reads goes immediately
or ultimately into his own business. He stim-
ulates librarians to order new books promptly
and giives them valuable aid by his estimates
of the books he reads, criticism which, while
not always that of the expert or specialist,
is criticism very much worth while, that of
the intelligent reader. One readily suspects
him of being a reader of other than business
literature, that he likes the latest good novel
or volume of essays, a book of travel or
biography. He is, in fact, the main whose
strong intellectual curiosity finds its satis-
faction in the printed, page and he offers . no
problem to the dispenser of 'books.
The Man Who Wants to Know
A step lower, at least in catholicity of taste,
than this man who wants to know, but a reader
to be taken just as seriously if not more seri-
ously, iis the man who can be roughly classed
as the ambitious reader. He is drawn to books,
not from love of reading — do we all realize
what an acquired haibit reading is after all
and what a wonderful one? — 'but from an
honest conviction that he needs what books
can give ham whether he is going to enjoy
the process of absorption or not. Prompted
often by a consciousness that he has missed
what many obtain in the ordinary progress
of education or perhaps in contact with others
coming to a realization of his own limitations,
he feels keenly the lack of an intellectual
background, of a broad view of business,
something beyond his own immediate job,
which he has been told reading supplies. Some-
times he is following a prescribed course of
business reading or is taking outside of work
hours a course of study for which collateral
reading is suggested. He is a much-toJbe-ad-
mired reader of business books ior he is strug-
gling against handicaps, the strongest of which
is that usually he is beginning rather late in
life to read and is finding what should be a
pleasure and a relaxation, a task and what
should be easy, up hill work. But he gets much
out of his reading if he is dogged enough to
persist and he stands a fine chance of develop-
ing into the kind of a reader described above
to whom books and reading are necessities of
life like food and clothes.
This type of ambitious reader is often
drawn at first, when he ventures beyond the
books OP just his own line of business, to
those books which, unfortunately and for want
of a better term, are called "inspirational
books." Designed to encourage latent qualities
of ambition, self-confidence and personal effi-
ciency, these books form a strong group in
themselves 'but they serve an added purpose
in a business library as a sort of bright bait
to lure on to more definite and substantial
books those not iin the habit of reading. An-
other popular entrance to the rich field of
business literature is thru the gateway labelled
"psychology." This word alone has achieved
a remarkable .power of fascination in many
lines of modern literature but in none more
so than that of business writing where its
inclusion in a title insures that book from
ever standing long idle upon the library shelf.
And isn't it a really wonderful thing that
books that treat of the science of the human
mind as it is definitely applied to the dealings
of the business world should be read with such
avidity by men who are for tihe most part
not accustomed to theorizing or analyzing but
whose daily concern is with practical pro-
cesses and actual results? Perhaps just there
lies a lot of the fascination — that we all, even
if not habitual readers or students, have for-
mulated for ourselves our own little home-made
system of the basis of human relations and are
thrilled to meet in 'books, frank, open talk of
the power of one human mind over another and
illuminating explanations of our own mental
processes.
A Direct Answer
The third class of borrowers of books from
a business library, as they seem naturally to
group themselves, is the most interesting and
equally the most difficult group. It consists of
those who come to books for a direct answer
to a direct question. They are not users of
books from habit nor do they cherish ambitions
to become so, but, having acquired a new job
or seeing an opening for one a little better than
that they are holding, or having stumbled across
something in their daily work that they don't
understand, they turn to the library for help.
A librarian trembles before their insistent de-
mands, is depressed in spirit if she has to send
them away unsatisfied, but rejoices greatly when
she can place in their hands just what they
came in for, confident they would find. Re-
sentful when books fail to supply him with just
the tool he wants, this type of reader often
fails to revisit the library, but, once let a book
gain his confidence by having there on the print-
ed page his very problem — only stated more
clearly than he can state it — and its solution,
back he will come again and again, the best
kind of a library "booster," bringing in his
train his friends and office companions. He of-
fers good material for graduation into the class
of the ambitious type of reader to whom books
represent a broad general object rather than
just the specific answer to an occasional ques-
tion. And he may even, as years and experi-
ence increase, find himself reading because he
March n, 1922
689
loves to read as well as for what he gets out
of reading in the way of practical (help. For
he, this man who runs with his little problems
to books to get them solved, is more often than
not a young man .in the beginning of his busi-
ness career, in what is called the more or less
plastic stage, who may, — who knows? — become
a broad minded understanding leader in busi-
ness. Surely he stands a better chance of doing
so, if he (has had the good fortune to become
familiar with good books on business than if he
had remained a stranger to their wealth.
One more question — "Are men reading more
business books than they did formerly"? Yes,
in at least one city and in one library. This
business branch library, some of the experiences
of which have been here recorded, has just
celebrated its fourth anniversary and compar-
ing its first month's record to its last, there is
a 651 per cent increase in the number of per-
sons making use of the library for reading
and reference and a 430 per cent increase in
the books loaned out from its shelves. So it
can gnve an emphatic affirmative.
Publishing Today
By Jonathan Cape
AUTHORSHIP has fallen on evil days so
far as material rewards are concerned — •
at least that is the view which is expressed
very generally whenever the immediate pros-
pects of book-publishing are discussed. A few
fortunate ones have big incomes, but for the
rest there is scarcely the bones of a living to
be had.
To get published, to get one's admission into
the circle of those whose work is available be-
tween covers, may be difficult, but not as diffi-
cult as in Borrow's day, because there are more
publishers, and while there remains a publisher
still untried the spirit of hope is not entirely
extinguished. Borrow, who only had a limited
field to cover when he tried to place his book,
found the publishers rude, unreceptive, and
boorish ; the only ones who -gave him ear were
averse to his MS. and wanted something en-
tirely different from what he had to offer.
The literary agent, now an established institu-
tion, is usually willing to try and place any-
thing which looks like a book. His close
acquaintance with the personnel of publishing
houses, and the quickly-changing circumstances
of the book world, is at the service of both the
tried and untried author. Curt refusals and
conventional expressions of interest but regret,
which alternately depress or encourage the au-
thor, cut no ice with him, he doggedly circulates
the typescript until sheer wear and tear to the
paper of it brings him to a halt.
The method is very useful, particularly to
the obvious sort of mss. The piquant and
the scandalous invariably find a home with some
publisher. The sounder and less attractive do
not so easily get careful consideration.
But the intelligent agent knows his man
and sends out less obvious typescripts
to the patient and individual publisher whom he
knows will look for gold in the rough and not

lishers is reprinted from The Literary Year Book

expect it to ,be already minted and milled. There
is very little likelihood to-day of genius going
unpublished, or of decent respectable talent re-
maining unprinted, but there is every chance
that it may be neglected, altho published. Pub-
lashing is no longer, if it ever was, a mere ques-
tion of discovery of talent. To-day, a publish-
er's hardest work is selling his books. Produc-
tion costs and overhead charges necessitate a
larger sale for each book. Speculation on the
part of the bookseller is almost non-existent,
and the margin of profit, which a few years
ago was his only if he plunged heavily, is now
secured to him with little risk. Unsold stock
the 'bookseller has still, but it is more often the
result af waiting for purchasers, or too dif-
fusive buying in small numlbers on the chance
of a book being called for, than receptivity to
the publishers' fresh enterprises.
The daily press, which at one time reviewed
books seriously and critically, has almost ceased
to do so. Such notice as is given tends to give
readers the cream of the book, and so save them
the trouble of reading it. Advertisement rates
have increased to such an extent as to be practi-
cally prohibitive. Books are not now reviewed
by the newspapers ; they are paragraphed or else
featured, and only those which have a "news
value" receive attention. The chatty and scan-
dalous are thereby given undue prominence,
while the more weighty and thoughtful are
inflected altogether.
This is bad for the intellectual life of a coun-
try, and puts a premium on the superficial.
Thought is discouraged, and in its place there
comes gossip and chatter engendered by a con-
tinuous reel of pictorial impressions.
The literary pages are a feature still of some
papers. The weeklies attempt to deal justly by
the more important 'books as soon as possible
after publication, but very little is being done
to inculcate a real love of books and the desire
to possess them. After all, it is due to the au-
6go
The Publishers' Wcckl\
thor that his (book should be bought, not merely
talked about and read only when it can be bor-
rowed. We owe it to the author, particularly if
he is a friend of ours, to buy some of his books.
Authors have not an unlimited supply of copies
of their own books to give to their friends, and
they not infrequently have bills to pay, and food
and clothes to buy, like other people.
Why Men Are Publishers
The number of new books, and the variety
of people who write, would appear to be evi-
dence of a prosperous state of things in the
fields of authorship and publishing. So, too,
might ^e reckoned the number of young pub-
lishers who, like myself, have only a few
months instead of many years to their account
since they were founded. This prosperity is
more apparent than, real. Men and women are
in authorship or publishing not because of, the
chance of securing rich reward, but because they
cannot help themselves, they have it in their
blood. They have been drawn to it, and it is
absorbing all their thought and attention. Gen-
erally, however, this attention is devoted to pro-
ducing books, and the question of selling them
is considered to be the province of the book-
seller. The author veteran, or tyro, is always
on hand with mss., which the publisher is in-
vited to read or consider. The publisher is al-
ways seeking for that book which will do ham
credit as well as put a lining in his pocket. The
actual contact wnth the public is thru the book-
seller, and it is he who has to meet and answer
all the complaints, to give information gratis,
and to bear the brunt of the public's dissatis-
faction with shoddy production and inferior
vitlue. The number and variety of books pub-
lished tend to make the bookseller what he is
to-day — a book distributor, not a book seller.
To the bookseller a "good" book is a book that
sells, or rather a book that the public comes
and asks for. Books go, or they don't go.
Why the public ask for some and not for
others is vaguely supposed to be connected with
the book's quality. The truth is that everyone
who likes books is a bookseller. The critic
whose judgment is followed is a book seller.
The publisher, who advertises cleverly, who
"puts a 'book over" by studying all the condi-
tions favorable for publication, and works up
the public's interest in his authors and books,
is the real bookseller. The individual book-
seller, who is the friend of his customers, and
studies their tastes and provides -for it, and
stimulates their interest in books, is a real book-
seller, but conditions tend to make him rare.
A new spirit must come into the relations of
the three branches. Author, publisher and book-
seller must get together. The competition of
other interests and distractions has to be met,
and it can only be done by all three setting
themselves to sell more books and working to-
gether for the common end. If authorship is
to enjoy the fruits of its labor, a campaign to
work up an interest in1 books must be put thru
Too few books are sold. The indifferent gen-
eral public must be worked upon, and books
must be presented as desirable and important
possessions to be bought at any time or season.
Advertising and publicity will change the life
and habit of a natrion, and a new policy of
concerted publicity would be justified by the
eventual return.
The real awards of authorship are not mate-
rial ones, but the wherewithal to live must be
secured. Motor cars and other flesh pots are
for the -signal few who are lucky enough to
be unusually successful. Popular success is its
own reward, and those who obtain it usually find
that most other things worth having have been
crowded out by it. What authorship does need
is a sense of security so that there is freedom
to give out the ideas which call for expression.
The author wants to render life as he sees it,
and to have a reasonable chance of a critical
hearing from the intellectual few, and a certain
measure of attention from the majority of his
fellows. Authorship wants to be rescued from
the position of paid entertainer dependent upon
chance pennies thrown into a hat. The manu-
facture of artificial situations based on falsity
of sentiment because of a supposed demand for
only such wares, is scarcely a dignified or im-
portant occupation.
What Publicity Can Do
The bookstalls are crowded with books, their
dust-covers decorated with impossibly beauteous
maidens, and with square-jawed men in furry
trousers, spurs and sombreros.
The pub'lic does not seem anxious to buy, and
as nothing else is available it passes by after a
steady stare which begins with interest and
ends in indifference.
As its taste is interpreted by the corporations
who have a virtual monopoly, and who claim to
know and only provide just what the public
wants, these are the books and journals the pub-
lic require. The public does not want them,
so buys chocolates, goes to the cinema, or looks
at a "snippets" journal.
Publicity can change the habits of a people.
Suggestion will make people cheer or hiss at
the wrill of those who control the medium. A
concerted movement could be set in motion which
•would make 'books a real source of interest to the
mass of the population, and the buying and
possessing of them a common habit as natural
as spending several shillings on a seat at the
cinema or the music hall. Let authors, book-
sellers and publishers get together. The ma-
chinery is already in existence with the respect-
ive associations, Authors' Society, Publishers'
Association, and the Booksellers Association
A joint committee in permanent session work-
691
ing whole-heartedly together, could devise
means to (increase materially the sale of books.
The sale of books in this country does not
compare favorably with other countries. Amer-
ica is ahead of us, not only in the number of
books bought, but in the variety of books pro-
duced. There is better team work over there.
They "get together." Intensive labor by authors,
journalists, publishers, and booksellers has re-
sulted in books having a place in the life of
the people of the United States which will tell
increasingly as time goes on.
It is for us to be up and doing. Books should
be bought not borrowed. If sales could be in-
creased prices would go down. Putting prices
down will not increase sales materially. We
want better produced books. Slipshod printing
and shoddy production have been accepted as
inevitable, as a legacy of the war. There is no
longer any excuse for it. Careful printing,
good paper, and tasteful binding should be in-
sisted upon. They are still obtainable.
College Men's Reading
HAROLD Spender's lament in the Fort-
nightly Review that "Oxford's educa-
tional habits are still curiously tempered
by a neglect of the habit of reading the printed
word" has drawn forth the comment in the
Harvard Alumni Bulletin.
"May not the same criticism be applied to
Harvard? The undergraduates who read widely
and well are few in number. A certain amount
of reading is necessary in order to pass any
course, yet this amount is often surprisingly
small. The student who takes copious notes
of an instructor's lectures may sometimes dis-
pense with supplementary reading entirely.
"Evidence afforded in courses in English
composition indicates that many undergraduates
do not open books at all, other than those that
constitute "required reading." Nearly all of
them read the Saturday Evening Post; most
of them read some newspaper. Comparatively
few avail themselves to any notable degree of
the facilities offered by the largest college
library in the world. Comparatively few read
books that furnish more than passing enter-
tainment.
"The requirements of the general examination
for those who concentrate in languages will
remedy to some extent the deficiency. But for
those who do not specialize in languages there
is no compulsion and no incentive to read.
Time given to books does not seem to many
a youth likely to advance his purpose. The
athletics, the clubs, the competitions supply
for him the main values of a college education.
His classics — we do not mean to be disparaging
of them — are O. Henry, Kipling, and Stevenson.
"How shall the young man be made to read?
It seems to us one of the important educational
problems. We are disposed to echo Mr.
Spender's words : 'Do not let us moderns cul-
tivate too much intellectual pride; for however
much we may have multiplied our studies, can
we say that we study with the depth or earnest-
ness of our ancestors ' '
The Bookplate Annual for 1922
IN the "Bookplate Annual" for 1922, edited
by Alfred Fowler, Gardner Teall writes
on the chiaroscuro bookplates of Allen Lewis ;
and Alexander J. Finberg has written an inter-
esting paper on the Sturge Moore bookplates
illustrated by eight of the artist's best designs^
Bookplate collectors will be interested in the
Bookplate Exchange List which includes the
names and addresses of more than sixty col-
lectors of bookplates, with notes concerning
their specialties and what they have to offer
in exchange. A complete catalog of the
Seventh Annual Exhibition of Contemporary
Bookplates is presented, illustrated by the de-
signs winning certificates of award. The
awards of the jury are set forth in detail. The
catalog forms a valuale record of practically
every bookplate designed during the last year.
The book is large quarto in size, printed on
Old Stratford paper. The edition is strictly
limited to five hundred copies.
The Authors' League Fund
THE Authors' League has had since 1917
a fund for the assistance of needy and in-
capacitated authors, artists and dramatists.
Until very recently almost all the contribu-
tions have come from within the profession
but this year has 'brought an unusual number
of calls for help and it has become necessary
to raise more money to enable the fund to
continue its work. A series of lectures has
•been started for the benefit of the fund. The
first of the series was given at the Hotel Plaza
by Winston Churchill, the American novelist, on
"The Nature of the Creative Mind." Joseph
Rennell, the artist, will lecture later in the
month.
Charles Scribner and Frederick A. Stokes
are on the Authors' League Fund Committee.
Sucessful Slogans
IN the John Wanamaker, New York, Book

A Survey of One Effective Method of Retail Advertising
[EDITORIAL NoxE.r— -More than 25 years ago
or to be exact, bearing date of September I,
1896, the first issue of Books of the Month
appeared under the title of A List of New
Books. It ibeeame in later years The Latest

of the Month. Jt appeared first as a single
sheet 'broadside then as a pamphlet of the
size and shape in which it appears today and
which has proved to be most effective. In
these 25 years there have been many editorial
changes that have made the publication more
efficient for its purpose and one change of
ownership when in January, 1920, it came
into the group of booktrade periodicals pub-
lished by the R. R. Bowker Company.
The fundamental purpose of Books of the

Manifestly, it is important that the trade
generally should know just how this type
of retail publicity is used; that booksellers
everywhere should consider ways and means
of applying this type of advertising to their
own particular publicity problems. In order

QUESTIOXXATKF, RECENTLY SUBMITTED TO BOOKSELLERS BY Books of the Month.
March n, 1922
693
TIE questionnaire as reproduced, in minia-
ture on the .preceding page was recently
submitted to booksellers in every section
of the United States. They represent the
large store and the small, the bookshop and
the book department. These dealers spend in
the aggregate in excess of $21,000 annually
to secure simply the limprinted copies of this
one 'booklist. In addition they must make
an outlay for special envelopes, for postage
and allow ifor mailing time and individual at-
tention, so that the total amount of money
spent in this single form of advertising is at
once a guaranty of its seriousness and a surety
of its effectiveness, since it has been so long
maintained.
About 73 dealers reported in all or in part
as to details of this questionnaire, and a sum-
mary of their answers is here recorded :
Methods of Distribution
Three methods of distribution are employed
(often in the same store), but it is worth not-
ing that the largest number of dealers (54)
distribute their lists separately. Separate mail-
ing requires a special mailing list and is the
safest and surest method of getting book in-
formation to every person who is buying or
who may buy from the bookshop. Often the
best book buyers are missed by any other
method. The next most used method of dis-
tribution (51 dealers report), is inside the store,
where copies are so placed as to be picked
up by customers, and clerks are urged to hand
out copies or include them in packages. A
smaller, tho considerable number (38) distribute
this envelope-fitting booklist as an enclos-
ure with letters, bills and statements sent out
to charge accounts. This method makes use
of regular postage as a carrier without extra
cost and makes (postage expense an asset.
It ris the least expensive method, tho good
customers or prospects may be overlooked for
an extended period — and cash customers,
entirely.
Source of Mailing List
Since the predominant method of distribu-
tion is to a separate mailing list, it is im-
iportant to note sources of lists. That named
by practically all reports answering this ques-
tion is the most natural one — customers. For-
ty-five dealers indicate that they started their
lists from this source. "Get the names of
your customers" has been an important slogan
in sales methods and it is here indicated as
the chief method by which successful book-
stores secure and 'build tip mailing lists. Other
sources of mailing lists indicate especially
the local telephone books (9 dealers indicate
this) city directories (5 dealers), local club
lists church memberships and other special
lists, as well as names secured by careful scru-
tiny of society and news columns of local
papers.
Sources of New Names
These drop quite naturally into the same
groups as sources of original mailing lists. Re-
ports show that the same methods are em-
ployed for securing new names as for orig-
inal lists. New customers and new accounts
are the chief sources of new names for mail-
ing lists. Names are also secured by solici-
tation of local lists of clubs, societies and indi-
viduals. Many dealers send special cards of
inquiry to prospects asking if they wish to
have catalogs of books sent, them. Those speci-
fying that they do are added to the List.
Eliminating Names
It iis quite apparent that the chief reason
for the elimination of names should be lack
of response on the part of persons addressed
and this is the basis on which lists are trimmed,
but the length of time allowed the customer
or prospect to secure advertising literature
before resiponding to it varies from as much
as three years to as short a time as thirty days.
Thirty-four dealers report that they "work"
their mailing lists by their ledger accounts.
Other methods of "pruning" and controlling
the list are:
1. The elimination of such names as the
Post Office returns wath indication of
change of address, removal or with other
reasons for non-delivery.
2. Many dealers make special solicitation
of their whole list from time to time
and usually supply advertising literature
to those who request' that this book in-
formation service 'be continued.
3. Local newspaper notices such as removal
from locality or death, are watched and
the list is made to conform with facts.
Is the List Classified?
Most of the dealers do not class/ify the
lists, but nineteen reports indicate that lists
are classified. These fall generally into the
classification of types of literature (fiction,
biography, history, etc.) Names are filed as
they are interested in specific types. Other
methods of classification are alphabetical by
post offices foy types of individuals, (heads
of families, children, teachers, etc.) and by
regular or occasional buyers. Thirty-five
dealers report that they do not classify their
lists.
Record of Sales
So many dealers indicate that the basis of
elimination of names gravitates albout the ques-
tion of responses, that it is surprising to
note that so few (20) keep special sales records
694
The Publishers' Weekly
of returns /from direct advertising. Forty-
one say they do not keep special sales rec-
ords. Those who do keep sales records gen-
erally say that they are kept on special cards,
or on the mailing list cards so that every sale
that can be traced to advertising-by-mail is
credited exactly. Others keep a special sales
'book or special sales slips, segregated, for all
mail orders secured by direct advertising. It
should be noted that it is impossible to check
up and record all sales due to this advertising
for many sales are made in such manner as
to make record of source of sale out of the
question. Enough direct returns are indicated,
however, to justiify great faith in the adver-
tising method.
Marked Copies
Very few dealers indicate that they go to
the trouble of marking copiies of the booklist,
tho a number (15) do so and are enthusiastic
about this approach toward personal appeal.
Many of those reporting that they do not
mark copies express the belief that it would
be profitable.
Special Letters
The majority of the dealers (35) indicate
that they do send special letters, either with
the booklet or separately, to their customers
and prospects, tho the division of those send-
ing letters and those who do not is not very
marked The use of the special letter deserves
extended consideration on the part of book-
sellers.
Return Order Forms
A very great majority of the dealers use
the return order form (46 use them, 13 do
not). Order-forms are easily procurable and
may be secured without expense. Those most
used (40 dealers) are postcards with dealer
imprint supplied by publishers. Many dealers
(28 indicated) prefer their own or use forms
specially prepared for them. Return order
forms make it easier for the customer to buy.
Everything that can be done to overcome cus-
tomers' inertia must be done.
Method of Handling
There is no special method of handling in-
dicated from the returns, for the reports in-
dicate many methods. In some cases, special
individuals have charge of mailing lists. In
other cases, a central desk looks after distri-
bution, usually the wrapping counter. In store
distribution, circulation is effected by sales
people in all departments of the store.
Other Literature With Booklets
Many of the dealers believe that it detracts
from the effectiveness of the booklet itself
and its sales appeal to enclose other literature
with it. A great majority of the dealers, how.
ever, do enclose other literature sometimes
their own special lists, sometimes especially
attractive material about certain good selling
books or those they particularly wish to em-
iphasize. With the booklet also often goes
a special or general letter from the bookseller.
Most Important Retail Selling Method
The poll of retaiilers asked for judgment
as to relative importance in bookstore pub-
licity, of newspaper advertising and direct-by-
mail advertising indicates by great odds that
direct-by-mail advertising is the more effective.
Twenty-four vote in favor of the distribution
of the lists seven vote in favor of newspaper
advertising and six declare that the value is
equal. Some of the voters indicate that the
two methods go hand in hand or that news-
paper advertising is especially effective in keep-
ing the store name before the community or
in making special announcements. For direct
order getting, the distribution of the list is
the more effective.
Direct by Mail Advertising
This request was made to dealers in order
to bring out either successful ideas now in
use or to secure theoretically useful plans
which dealers might adopt in going after in-
creased book sales. Many dealers have indi-
cated their use of and their faith in the per-
sonal letter and personal solicitation by letter.
These !etfets are often albout a special book
or books, or they relate to the special inter-
est of the individual. In either case, good sell-
ing requires knowledge of the book and the
prospect. Postcards may well take the place
of letters for variety and attention, and some
dealers stress their value especially if well
prepared.
Another suggestion for increased efficiency
in direct-advertising is the use of a special
trade sign or insignia which is pasted on pack-
ages and inside cover of books on envelopes
or on other available space so that attention
may be gained without defacing customers'
purchases. The value of regularity in ad-
vertising by mail and of promptness in supply-
ing book information is suggested. Good serv-
ice after advertising is stressed. Special
advertising "stunts" that gain the attention, such
as announcements of store lectures with free
tickets to them, as well as many other attractive
and diverting pieces of printing arouse inter-
est and secure a hearing.
The sending of complimentary copies of
books to special public figures such as minis-
ters who will review and talk or write about
them locally, is indicated as a means of impor-
tant direct advertising. One dealer mails pub-
lishers' announcements to individuals with
pencil notes on the margin and reports consid-
erable returns.

Successful Advertising — A Summary
Booksellers will note that a successful eco-
nomical method of advertising has here been
indicated. Any dealer may start and build up
a mailing list by simply making an alpha-
betical list of customers whose names may
be secured in his own bookkeeping depart-
ment. He may add to that list by checking
up local directories and lists of various kinds.
He may trim and correct the list by watching
sales and by occasional solicitation among all
the prospects — adhering especially to those
who wish to be supplied with book informa-
tion. He may, if he wishes, classify his lists
so that individual interests may be better
known, and may be appealed to. If he wishes
to check up returns directly, he may credit
sales right on the list card itself or keep a
special record book of sales made by special
order. He may find it profitable to appeal to
the special interests of book readers by send-
ing marked copies or other special literature
from time to time or regularly. He may over-
come the inertia of prospects by enclosing
return order form with booklets. He will find
that advertising in local papers gets his store
publicity, is valuable for special announce-
ments, and gets new names for his mailing
list. This method of advertising by the dis-
tribution of timely, informative lists of books
sent regularly and promptly to customers and
prospects affords a comparatively easy, effective,
economical method of advertising that has
been adopted by successful booksellers gen-
erally.
Last Word of Oxford Dictionary
THE very last word has been typed for the
Oxford Dictionary which has been up-
wards of 40 years in the making. That word
is "zyxt." a fourteenth century Kentish dialect
equivalent of the modern "thou seest."
Tthe dictionary carries a mountainous record,
far further than existing standard books, which
end on, say "xyxomma" or ''zythum" (an
ancient beverage), but gaps remain to be filled.
The Oxford University Press expects that the
concluding volume of the dictionary, the tenth,
will be published about 1923. After all, that
will not be the final word, for a supplement is
inevitable.
In addition to the organized collection of
words unregistered in existing dictionaries, for
which a committee was appointed by the Philo-
logical Society, big lists have come from many
sources, far and near. The totals have varied
from looo to 10,000. Not only have there been
researches relative to obscure words, dating
from dim centuries, but newcomers have to be
reckoned with, the imported colloquialism, or
the fragment of slang which may have been
definitely absorbed into our language only the
other day.

Books at the Travel Show
THE Travel Show to be held at the Grand
Central Palace, New York, has set aside an
exhibit space, 29 feet by 22 feet in the cen-
ter of the main floor of the Palace as a
Travel Book Headquarters. The space will
have a 22 foot frontage on each of two main
aisles, and will have a living room table, rug,
reading lamp, several easy chairs and a row
of books enclosed by bookends.
Along both walls of this cozy living room
or library will be placed tables approximately
five feet wide and three feet deep to be al-
lotted to the various publishers. The wall
space above each table — to a height of ten
feet — will be available for the publishers' pos-
ters or cutouts, etc. A small uniform sign
will be furnished each exhibitor.
This section will be organized by Edward
Frank Allen, formerly Editor of Travel. He
will deal impartially in the arrangements at-
tending the display, publicity and sale of books
at the booth. Books may be consigned to Mr.
Allen, at the usual trade discounts for sale
during the show if exhibitors desire. The
Travel Show management assumes responsi-
bility for the settlement of accounts of books
sold at the booth. Mr. Allen will be assisted
by competent book clerks during the week.
Exhibitors will have the privilege of putting
their own men in charge of their own particu-
lar exhibit, but it will not be necessary for
them to do so. Only exhibitors' books will
be sold at the booth.
The Travel Book Headquarters will be made
the center for interesting events, all of which
will be featured in the daily newspaper pub-
licity of The Travel Show : visits to the
Headquarters, upon various set occasions, of
the authors of travel books and reception to
authors of travel books and travel lectures:
Public balloting on the best ten travel books
ever written to be called The Wanderlust
Shelf. This contest has already received much
publicity.
The balloting for the best 10 travel books
will be on printed lists of 25 titles determined
in advance by nominations now being sent to
the Travel Book Contest, Grand Central Pal-
ace, Neiv York. Booksellers, librarians, and
general readers are being urged to send in
their suggestions promptly. Ten titles may be
sent in by each voter. According to the num-
ber of times a title is mentioned is determined
whether it is placed on the ballot used at the ex-
position.

English Book-Trade News
From our London Correspondent
THE iioth Anniversary of the birth of
'Charles Dickens was celebrated by an en-
thusiastic gathering at dinner recently, at
which G. K. Chesterton occupied the chair.
Those present represented most of the arts and
professions, and included not a few English and
American authors and publishers. G. K. C. was
brilliant: epigrammatic, witty, mirthful. He said
"the genius of England and the genius of
Dickens are very nearly akin." London, he said,
lacked a statue of Dickens, and statues of his
characters should be put up. He seemed thoroly
to enjoy his own enjoyment.
An English book-trade journal recently in-
vited opinions from authors, publishers and
booksellers as to the justification or otherwise
for existing ibook prices. Charges of profiteer-
ing are freely brought, and some there are who
blame high published prices for the troubles of
the time. Messrs. Constable said in answering
the query :
"As with so many of the catch words brought
into fashion by the war years, the phrase prof-
iteering is one upon which we put very differ-
ent interpretations.
"In our opinion the period of high book
prices, which began about the middle of the
war and which will not lightly be ended, has
left fairly constant the. profits of the trade as
a whole but has considerably affected their dis-
tribution. It is not in a spirit of complaining
that we say that the publisher's margin of profit
has suffered more severely than that of printer,
author or bookseller. Maybe in the old days
the publisher was disproportionately rewarded;
if so, the injustice has been righted and with
a vengeance. If one analyzes the cost of a
seven and sixpenny novel to-day, dividing the
published price into net cost of paper, cost of
printing, cost of binding, author's royalty, book-
seller's discount and publisher's profit, the last
of these items will also be found the least. We
have few illusions as to the perfection of those
days of cheap manufacturing costs. We are
not of those who think that wages should re-
vert to pre-war level. We would point out to
those who talk of pre-war prices of books, that
there are elements, in book manufacture the
costs of which are beyond the control of the
book trade. Unless these elements (and the
wages of labor are now the most important)
are to be forced back to their former figure,
retail book prices must and should show pro-
portionate increase. For our part we hope such
relapse will never take place; both in the inter-
ests of the lower paid members of the book-
trade and for the more proper recognition of
the dignity and importance of books themselves.
R. B. Marston, who has directed the fortunes
of our contemporary, the Publishers' Circular,
for so many years, supports the excellent sug-
gestion that the proposal recently printed in
the Times Literary Supplement should be
adopted and put in train. Here is a portion of
Mr. Marston's letter : "The ideal thdng would
be a permanent collective exhibition such as the
German publishers have in their great Book
House at Leipzig. Expense is the difficulty —
we are not likely to get State aid as in Germany.
How much importance is attached to these ex-
hibitions on the Continent, especially in Ger-
many, is shown by the following: — In addition
to the permanent Book House at Leipzig there
is the famous Leipzig Annual Book Fair. Soon
after the war the German publishers established
a society for the extension of the German book
abroad, which held a most successful book ex-
hibition at Frankfort last year; the same
society has organized the exhibition of German
books now being held at The Hague. In Paris
there has just closed a most successful ex-
hibition of hooks for Christmas and New Year.
The French publishers have also arranged for
an exhibition of French books at Stockholm
from March 17 to 27: the French are making
great efforts to extend the market for their
books abroad, and have established a permanent
Maison du Lavre, or book hou^e, on the German
lines. In Austria the second spring Fair will
•be held from March 19 to 25 at Vienna, with
special exhibits of books, school furniture, &c. ;
there will also be a fair at Prague from March
12 to 19. In the United States great efforts
to increase the sale of books are being made
by the publishers."
War books in France are just as unwanted as
they are in England and America. It is only
occasionally .in England that a novel like the
"Way of Revelation" gets a hearing, and then
it is thru sheer merit. This first novel by Mr.
Wilfrid Evart has already, in three months.
run into 10,000. Yet there is always room for
the real, earnest, genuine war book — the work
that has something to tell us, which comes out
of the heart blood, so to speak, of the author.
That is why "Way of Revelation" has suc-
ceeded where so many others have failed. There
is another instance— a. French novel, and a
poignant one, too, "Wooden Crosses" by Roland
Dorgeles. It has run into 130,000 in France.
Dorgeles has written another very vivid and
powerful novel — not about the war — entitled
''Saint Magliore."

Buying Books
IN his booklet "On Buying and Using Print ;
Practical Suggestions from a Librarian to the
Business Man,'* John Cotton Dana comments
on the buying of books — '"Returning to the
bad habit of buying books unwisely," he says,
"in which so many business men indulge. It
shows itself chiefly, as yet, in homes. Here
you will find — if you find books at all —
shiny 1xx>kcases with glass doors tightly shut,
full of useless truck, often bought from agents
at exorbitant prices. The book-man sees these,
perhaps is asked to admire them, and weeps
to think that a shrewd man, successful in his
particular game of life, can be so dull as to
spend his money on books in contented ignor-
ance and to take pride in his purchases !
"After a tirade like that a little advice is
due, and here it is :
1. Buy the books you need.
2. Find out what you need from an expert.
Books contain information. Every man
needs information. If he thinks he does not,
that's a sure sign he does. Tell an expert on
the subject of 'what there is on print,' or
permit him to learn what your business is ;
then he will name to you books that will give
you information which you have not, and tell
you how you can get it out of them.
3. Buy books of a book dealer, the best you
can find. You need not go to his store your-
self; send him a letter. If you have a large
order and are not sure you know a reliable
dealer, ask the librarian of your public library
to name one. If your piJbliic library is quite
small, or if, whether small or large, it is run
by its trustees and not by its librarian, then
write to your state library commission at your
state capital. Nearly every state has such a
commlission, and its business is to advise all
applicants for information on books, book-
buying and book-using. These commission-
ers employ skilled people to give this advice."
Illinois Booksellers' Convention
THE officers of the Illinois Booksellers' and
Stationers' Association met in Decatur, 111.,

A Grand Rapids Bookshop
EVERY year in The Travelers' Number the
PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY prints a list of the
towns where bookshops are needed, based on
a ballot on that question made by the travelers.
Every year there is some come-back from the
cities mentioned. Last week a very pleasant
letter came from Grand Rapids, Mich, which
began : "You will, no doubt, be interested to
know that on March 4, Grand Rapids will lead
the way as one of the delinquent towns in
opening a first class book shop." The Shaw
Bookshop is the new Grand Rapids Bookstore,
at the corner of Monroe Ave. and Commerce St.
which will supply the community with good lit-
erature. Mr. Shaw, the proprietor, is an enter-
prising young man who has been a magazine
distributor for a number of years.

The Publishers' \Veekl\
Current Clippings
K Pius recently said in an interview
with Cardinal O'Connell of Boston :
"You know I have 'been a librarian all my
life. The happiest years I have spent were
in company with books."
A MOST attractive trade announcement that
lias been published is that of D. Appleton &
"Company's spring books, which has linked
up their dealer advertising very carefully with
the Year Round Book Campaign. The pamphlet
is full of suggestions to the bookseller as to
how to make more spring business. Two
pages are given up to a March almanac, one of
March birthdays of Appleton authors and the
other giving a 'bookish lane or two to every
day of the month, some of which read as
follows :

Timely New Booklists
READING ALOUD
In reading1 aloud Uncle George, or rather his
audience, suffers from his lively sense of humor.
His mirth is so uncontrolled that the funny pas-
sage in a book, as he renders it, usually sounds
something like this "Now listen to this next bit.
Funniest thing I've ever read. Ho, ho ! Don't
misi a word. Har! 'Mr. Bipp passed his — hee,
hee — cup — oh, dear, this is so funny — to his —
har, har — w-w-w-ife for — splutter — more — hee,

Review.

IN connection with the March emphasis on
"Useful Books" the American Library As-
sociation has issued two attractive new
pamphlets which will find wide practical use
among libraries and bookstores. Ethel •Cle-
land, head of the business branch of the
Indianapolis Public Library, is the editor of
"Business Books for Profit and Pleasure,"
a list of forty titles from about half that many
publishing lists.
To the reader of the catalog her introduction
says : ''Read the books in this little list and
others like them for profit 'but read them
also for pleasure .... Read them for in-
spiration Read them for understanding
.... Read them for efficiency, and above all,
read them for breadth and background."
From Abe Martin, the Hoosier humorist,
is most appropriately quoted: "There's only
one thing that'll mix with business an' that's
printer's ink."
The group headings for the titles suggest
interesting classifications for those who have
business 'books to display :
ursiXF.SS BOOKS FOR PLEASURE AND PROFIT
A Great Game.
Speeding Up Efficiency and Effort.
Studying the Players and Directing the
Force.
Every Business Has a Beginning.
Getting the Best Out of the Office.
Keeping the Books.
Charting Progress and Results.
Writing and Talking Business.
Crying the Wares.
Selling the Product.
( living and Getting Credit.
The eight-page leaflet entitled "Useful Books
for the Home" includes twenty-four titles.
"We are interpreting 'useful books,' " says
the editor, "as those that help plan and keep
a home attractive and liveable and the family
well cared for with the least possible fuss
and bother." The headings under which the
hooks are grouped are as follows:
USEFUL BOOKS FOR THE HOME
The House.
The House Within.
The House Without.
Planning the Household.
Income and Expenditure.
Guests.
The Kitchen.
The Sewing Room.
The Nursery.
Child Training.
Child Reading.

Miss Graham's Course in
Bookselling
THE course of ten lessons in Bookselling
in the Public Library by Bessie Graham
under the auspices of the New York Book-
sellerV League came to an end on Friday, March
loth. The subjects of the lessons were as fol-
lows :
1. Biographies. (Boswell's Johnson to Stra-
chey's Victoria)
2. Dictionaries and Reference Books.
3. Contemporary American Poets.
4. Contemporary English Fiction.
5. Contemporary English Poets.
6. Essays.
7. Modern Drama — English and American.
8. World Histories. (Wells, Van Loon, et.
al.).
9. Children's Books.
10. Humorous Books. Out of print books.
The class has met on consecutive Friday
evenings from 7 — 9 o'clock in the lecture room
of the New York Library School. The aver-
age attendance has been fifty. Miss Graham
has treated of the literary side of bookselling,
using the bibliographies in "The Bookman's
Manual" as the scaffolding of her talk. After
each lesson there has been an address on the
commercial side of bookselling by some spe-
cialist in the field. The speakers have been :
1. Frederic G. Melcher, Managing Editor of
the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY, on Trade Periodi-
cals.
2. C. P. Calhoun, of the Ronald Press, on
Business Books.
3. B. W. Huebsch, Publisher, on Early
Booksellers and Publishers.
4. Mrs. Mowbray Clarke, of the Sunwise
Turn, on the Specialty Book Shop.
5. M. A. Carrigan, of Baker & Taylor, on
Jobbers tin the Book-Trade.
6. Whitney Darrow, of Scribner's, on the
Manufacture of a Book.
7. D. W. Browne, of Himebaugh & Browne.
8. Ernest J. Reece, Principal of the N. Y.
Library School, on Booksellers & Librarians.
9. Marian Cutter, of the Children's Book-
shop, on the Selling of Children's Books.
ro. Ernest Eisle, of Brentano's, closing ad-
dress on Bookselling Education.
A very interesting exhibit of the manu-
facture of a book, "From Tree to Book," was
loaned 6y Gtrosset & Dunlap to the class at
its sixth meeting.
A sheet of examination questions on the
lesson of the evening >was given to each mem-
ber of the class at the close of each lesson.
These questions were answered by the stu-
dents and returned to Miss Graham at the
next lesson. A review of all the lessons was
given at the last and a prize offered for the
The Publishers' Weekl\
best examination paper of the entire course.
The examination paper on Essays contained
the question, "What book of Essays contains
an essay on 'Buy a Book a Week'"? Very
few members of the class were able to an-
swer this question. The prize for the best
final examination paper was an autographed
copy of the book that answers this question.
The Teaching of English
AN educational report of international im-
portance in England and of significance to
all who are interested) in the teaching of Eng-
lish or of the study of literature has been re-
cently published in England and has had wide
comment. In a pamphlet entitled "The Teach-
ing of English in England," a departmental
committee, appointed two years ago, makes its
findings. Henry Newbolt was chairman. The
pamphlet contains 105 recommendations in
which the committee endeavors to start an era
of clear thinking on the subject of English as
a study in itself and as a vehicle for general
humanistic education. Some of the interesting
comments are.
3. That every teacher is a teacher of Eng-
lish, because every teacher is a teacher in Eng-
lish and that the whole of the time-table is
therefore available for the teaching of English.
ii. That when the recognition and use of
the symbols have been mastered the lesson
should be called "Literature" rather than
"Reading."
24. That care should be taken to insist on
the accurate use of the English language by
pupils specializing in Mathematics or Science.
30. That "the needs of business" are best
met by a liberal education.
31. That "Commercial English" is objec-
tionable to all who have the purity of the lan-
guage at heart, and also unnecessary.
39. That those responsible for technical and
commercial education should urge upon their
situdents the advantages, vocational as well as
cultural, of the pursuit of humane studies.
TOO. That nothing is more vital for the
spread of good literature than the supply of
good editions of standard authors at a moder-
ate cost.
101. That cooperation between the Public
Library Committee and the Local Education
Committee is of great importance.
103. That in Secondary Schools the pro-
vision of a good library is at least as important
as the provision of a good laboratory.

THRU an error, the advertisement of the

BOOK MEDIUMS
A recent survey brought out the fact that in the last two years
publishers' advertising increased in volume when that of other industries
showed a marked falling-off. Publishers have continued to lead other
industries in lineage in the large newspapers even this year.
This has resulted in decided gains in the booksellers' business and
has been the means of increasing the amount of news and publicity
about books. There are to-day a greater number of newspapers and
periodicals which print news and reviews of books, and even the older
established book mediums are giving more space to books.
Book mediums have shown a vast improvement in editorial contents
and mechanical makeup. Better and more interesting material is
presented to book lovers, and modern printing methods have been
utilized to make the book pages more attractive in appearance and
general appeal.
The circulation of such book sections has gone up by leaps and
bounds and they have indeed become a dominant factor in the campaign
for the wider and wiser use of books.
Book Business Will Gain
The bookseller can promote sales in his store by using the
authoritative reviews of books which appear in good book mediums. It
is very helpful to keep a file of recent issues of the important book
review mediums in a convenient place so that customers may refer to
them. This will be the means often of helping customers find "that book
which I saw reviewed the other day." It is business which should not be
turned away, as it some times is, when it can be so easily held.
Reprints of book review mediums are now being offered to the
dealers at a low cost. Full advantage should be taken of such offers.

'Intelligentsia and "Cognoscenti
There was a day when only the special folk designated by those
formidable words were presumed to be privileged to discuss literature.
The majority of book supplements catered almost exclusively to
them. At least, so one judged by reviews and articles. The ordinary
mortal, wading through the marshes of usual book-criticism, found
himself going under. Apparently his brow was not high enough for
successful exploration.
The Book Page of The Chicago Daily News took quite a different
viewpoint.
The Chicago Daily News established once and for all the fact
that literature can be treated with dignity, and yet without all the fus-
tian and verbal folderol of literary snobs.
It believed that really good books needed no specialized audience;
that they could be appreciated by anyone; and that the kind of criticism
that counts is the kind that will explain the true value of a work —
whether good or bad — in language that is comprehensible to the casual
reader as well as the most determined book-fan.
Such is the criticism always to be found on The Wednesday Book
Page of The Chicago Daily News. Authentic reviews in a style of bril-
liant informality, interesting to every-day persons as well as to the
"cognoscenti" and the "intelligentsia."
That is why advertising in The Chicago Daily News sells good
books. Publishers, who are the real judges of paying reader-interest,
accordingly place the bulk of their Chicago advertising in The Daily
News.
Following is the comparative record of book-lineage in Chicago
papers for the month of February, 1922:
The Chicago Daily News 9,369 lines
Tribune 4,137 lines
Herald-Examiner 2,910 lines
Post 7,753 lines
American lines
Journal , lines

Double Service to Booksellers
The Literary Review
of the New York Evening Post
1 OU who are booksellers need no introduction to The Literary
Review, edited by Henry Seidel Canby. You doubtless know it
well enough by now to understand why H. L. Mencken says : "It
is the best literary magazine ever set up in America."
But do you know how valuable The Literary Review can be
to you in your own business? Do you realize that you can use
the authoritative reviews that appear in it to promote your own
sales ? The Literary Review sends weekly a wave of book-hunger
across America. Powers of Minneapolis, Ayres of Indianapolis,
and many other bookstores have made The Literary Review a
strong link in their selling plan. Some of these bookdealers have
taken advantage of our group subscription plan, and are mailing
out The Literary Review with their imprint to a selected list of
customers. Write to us for our special bulk order prices.
Make Your Shop Known to America
Why not make your shop known not only to the people of
your locality but also to booklovers everywhere? For one dollar
you can carry a standing announcement of four lines, well dis-
played, in "The Bookshop," our classified advertising department,
on an editorial page devoted to book sales. Note this testimonial
from Leslie Chaundy & Co. of London:
"We appreciate the extraordinary response icMcli ire get from
advertisements in i/owr paper, so much so tliot, ivith the excep-
tion of The London Mercury, The Literary Review is the only
paper in which we regularly advertise."
The Literary Review, independent of its over 57,000 Evening
Post readers, has a subscription list of 12,000 teachers, librarians,
and booklovers. Your announcement in The Literary Review will
brii g them to your shop when they visit your city, or will produce
mail orders.

The Book Review
It sells books
Says John G. Kidd, of Stewart Kidd, Cincinnati:
I can most gladly recommend The Book Review.
In my mind it is the best and most individualistic
of this sort of house organ. It has certainly pro-
duced results for us. I know our customers find it
a real valuable guide for their selection of books."

WHY BOOKLOVERS READ
— and also why THE
WORLD is one of the
country's greatest
factors in the distri'
button of books.
WITH 1922, THE WORLD entered upon
a notable program of editorial expan-
sion. Among the recent aquisitions to the
staff is Heywood Broun, who has been called one
of the most brilliant writers in America. His daily
column, ' 'It Seems to Me," devoted to worthwhile
book reviews, current events and the stage, is a
contribution of strength and power to the daily
journalism of the country.
Another new WORLD feature is "The Conning
Tower" of Franklin P. Adams, otherwise "F. P.
A.," whose "colyum" has for many years served
as the daily shock absorber for jaded New Yorkers,
who found in it each morning that jovial admixture of good nature
and sound philosophy that gave them courage to face another
twenty-four hours with a smile.
Deems Taylor, himself a musician of note, writes about music
for THE WORLD, and to the already strong editorial page, which
commands pens among the most trenchant in America, there came
with the new year Walter Lippmann, who, as an author and Asso-
ciate Editor of The New Republic, has acquired a justified reputa-
tion for the sanity, the clarity and the easy understanding of his
political philosophy.

The Publishers' Weekly
Rare Books, Autographs and Prints
ILLUSTRATED art publications, reference
books for the connoisseur and French and
English literature from the estates of Cyrus
Hitchcock of East Orange, N. J., the late Pro-
fessor Kirby Smith of Baltimore, and the late
Charles H. Russell and Edward Brandus of
this airy, with additions, were sold at the Amer-
ican Art Galleries March I and 2, bringing
$5,399-50. Prices generally were low.
Three sales take place at the American Art
Galleries beginning with the middle of the
month. On March 15 and 16 library sets, first
editions, art and colored plate books, English
and French literature, including the extensive
collection of Cruikshankiana formed by the late
John P. Woodbury of Boston, will be sold.
This sale contains choice and rare books in fine
condition, many in bindings by English and
Continental masters. On March 17 several con-
signments will be sold, consisting of books,
manuscripts, views, portraits, including rare
items relating to California and the Far West
from the collections of John Mack of Albany
and H. R. Wagner of Berkeley, California.
On 'March 17 and 18 Civil War books, auto-
graphs and views, including correspondence of
Confederate official's, southern and northern
publications, and the Charles B. Reed collec-
tion of Lincolniana, will be sold. These three
sales, which occur on four successive days, con-
tain many choice books of interest to the book
lover, and not a few of real importance to the
collector.
A new edition of Boswell's "Life of Samuel
Johnson," in ten volumes, printed on Old Strat-
ford paper, limited to 785 sets, bound in boards,
half and full levant, to be known as the
"Temple Bar Edition," will shortly be published
"by Doubleday, Page & Company, the sale to
be exclusively in the hands of Gabriel Wells,
of this city. The illustrations, some fifty in
number, including several double-page plates,
will be in photogravure and will consist of
•portraits of Johnson, Boswell and other celeb-
rities, views of places asociated with Johnson's
life, memorable scenes in his career, and fac-
similes of letters and manuscripts of Johnson
and his correspondents. These illustrations,
many of which have never been published, are
reproduced from the famous collection of
R. B. Adam, of Buffalo. The volumes will
each contain an introduction in the form of
an essay, written by a prominent man of let-
ters or t>y a Johnsonian authority, especially'
for this edition under the general editorship
of Clement Shorter, editor of The Sphere of
London. The writers of these essays are as
follows : Aleyn Lyell Reade, an English author-
ity on Johnson and Boswell ; Augustine Birrell,
English author and publicist; Professor Wil-
liam P. Trent, of Columbia University ; Gilbert
K. Chesterton, English essayist; A. Edward
Newton, author of "The Amenities of Book
Collecting;" John Drinkwater, English drama-
tist; R. B. Adam, the owner of the finest
collection of Johnsomiana in existence; Walter
de la Mare, English poet and essayist; Pro-
fessor Chauncey Brewster Tinker of Yale
University, an American authority on Boswell ;
and Richard Ashe King, London author and
journalist. The volumes will be of medium
size, light weight, printed from large type,
making, we believe, one of the finest reading
editions of this masterpiece that has ever been
printed. There will be considerable demand for
this set from across the Atlantic as soon as
its merits become known and the remainder of
the edition is likely to go in a hurry when
it is ready for delivery.

A BOOK OF WOMEN'S VERSE
% J. C. SQUIRE ^ #3.75
"Poetry is poetry whoever writes it, but so far as my observ-

SHEILA OF BIG WRECK COVE By James A. Cooper
Ready April ist
Can one girl impersonate another and carry out the deception successfully? This is
the all-important question raised in Mr. Cooper's new Cape Cod story — a romance, so
sweeping in its broad pictures of life on the Cape, so thrilling in its scenes of storm and
stress, so broadly humorous one minute and so highly romantic the next, that it is sure
to mark an epoch in this branch of our national literature. To know Sheila is to lover her
— love her in spite of that awful deception which was practiced when she knew not which
way to turn or what to do. Through it all runs the salt of the never-resting sea, of strong
hearts, and of a love that no catastrophe could quench.
This story shows Mr. Cooper at his best, and that, as his many admirers know, is
saying a great deal. I2mo, doth, illustrated and with colored wrapper. Net, $1.75

ABROAD WITH MARK TWAIN
AND EUGENE FIELD
Tales They Told to a Fellow-Correspondent
By Henry W. Fisher
Fisher presents here the story of his intimate association in Europe with
Mark Twain and relates some of those man-to-man anecdotes that found no place
in his published letters or in his writings. Such anecdotes will be of surpassing
interest not only for themselves, but also for the new light they shed on the unique
and cherished personality of the Prince of American humorists. And as with
Mark Twain, so with Eugene Field, who gladly availed himself of the guidance
of Henry W. Fisher. It is to the association and friendship then formed that we
are indebted for these new revelations of our well-beloved Eugene Field. This
volume is edited by Merle Johnson, the well-known bibliographer of Mark Twain.

paper. It consists of 325 numbered copies. Roma hoards, linen back, octavo, $5.00

W. DOUGLAS
NEWTON
This English novelist is now thirty odd years of age, but he retains all the zest
for the romance of life which made him as a boy, sailing for South America,
nearly put the ship into quarantine by flying a home-made "yellow-jack" from
the rigging, when entering Rio. Though not retaining his desire for piracy, his
life has been diversified and zestful. He entered an engineering firm, but found
the rough humanity of the work-shops more interesting than the work; he tried
architecture; he was in a Mining Company office; he studied for the English
Civil Service; was an insurance broker; took up journalism and found it of
thrilling usefulness during the war; took part in the Royal Flying Corps' war
activities; accompanied the Prince of Wales on his American tour, writing
"Westward with the Prince of Wales" as record of the visit. He has written
several novels, including his recent "Low Ceilings," which was so favorably
received for its fine presentation of English middle-class life and character.
"DOUBLE-CROSSED," W. Douglas Newton's new novel of
the Canadian Northwest is a thrilling adventure romance, swift
in action and absorbingly interesting in the story unfolded. It
tells of how Eloise Reys, heiress to a vast fortune, sails from
England to Canada, answering the call of a ne'er-do-well, for
whom she remembers a girlish love. This man is the tool of
a band of conspirators and gripping indeed are the fortunes of
this young woman, lured across the ocean to the depths of the
lonely wilderness. The conspirators are a striking group of
derelict humanity and a superbly portrayed figure is the young
English diplomat whom chance makes her protector. $1.75 net

What one bookseller says:
"T TAVE just finished reading 'Explorers of

several best-sellers that we have in
mind are in full sway, it affects us as did the
Spring of 1920 after the extreme Winter of
1919-20, or, as a bookseller's Xmas Day after
the annual rush.
"The Seraph, the Angel and John are a-
dopted members of our family whether they
will or no; and Mary Ellen too, to care for
them. We shall be content if the next book,
and there must be a next, by Miss de la Roche
is as good as 'Explorers of the Dawn.'
"Please accept a thousand of our gratetullest
thanks for the opportunity given me to have
read it .... I do not think that 1 could ade-
quately describe the real pleasure that this little
volume caused my family and myself.

"'""[""'HOSE who still have youthful hearts and
[ have been searching for a companion volume
of Kenneth Grahame's tale of the golden

it, no plot makes it feverish; all that it has to re-
commend it, is the unquenched spirit ofyouth.the
unspoiled laughter of three little boys, 'Angel, Se-

to spin a romance of fancy, to stride the quarter-
decks of pirate ships, to fraternize with organ-
grinders and cobblers, and are equally at home

From a Former Fat Woman:
''Dear Dr. Peters : This is no doubt
one of thousands of similar letters you
receive, but I want to tell you how your
DIET AND HEALTH helped me. I'm
more grateful than I could ever tell you.
"Last year while nursing my baby, I
consumed quarts of milk, cocoa and
everything fattening until, horror upon
horror! / zt-eighed 212 pounds — and am
only 5 feet 4 incJifs tall.
"That was last May first. I'm still the
same height, but thanks to you and your
book, / noiv weigh 134 pounds. Isn't
that quite a remarkable reduction? I
feel like a human being instead of a
ten-ton truck — and moreover, resemble
more nearly a human being than a Vic-
trola.
"When I read these fool diets published
in. the different periodicals — cutting all
the foods you really like out of your
life forever — I just long to sit down
and refute them and tell them that's all
unnecessary if they will only read and
follow DIET AND HEALTH."

The Bookstore and the Clergy
ALONG with a general questioning of its
authority and influence which has shad-
owed the Church in the past few years,
there has come about a tendency among some
people to underestimate decidedly the impor-
tance of the leadership which the pulpit of the
country really has in our communities. Even
tho they now share with other leaders the re-
sponsibility for community progress they have
a forum and an audience of a size not
granted to others. Not fully to realize how the
Church as an institution is constantly mould-
ing the thought of the world, as well as serv-
ing to bring together for united action mil-
lions of people is to have no adequate view of
the constructive forces in the country.
One of the weaknesses of many pulpits has
been the lack of opportunity for study among
the clergy after clergymen have assumed their
place in the community. It should be the
interest of the bookstore to help bring together
the material on which the pulpit will build
wider views and greater effectiveness. The
bookstore should supply the material with
which the pulpit may help to mould the com-
munity along the lines of its highest vision.
A bookstore does not need to have a fully
developed religious department to find this rela-
tion to the pulpit of real importance ; and one
of the best things a bookseller can do is to
solidify his connections with those preachers
that are really leaders in the community.
Those men who are the real leaders realize
as clearly as does the bookseller or librarian
the importance of the printed word as a sup-
plement to the spoken word. The very foun-
dation of the Church was laid on this basis,
the written word carrying on the vision of the
spoken word. That a national movement
among the churches to give emphasis to printed
religion should have risen so spontaneously is a
testimony to the soundness of the idea, and in
the second year of its celebration Religious
Book Week will have results that could hardly
be foreseen when the first plan was made a
year ago.
Those who know religious literature in its
broadest sense owe a responsibility for guid-
ance to the great (public who will 'be really
interested when such guidance is offered. The
responsibility should be keenly appreciated as
it has come to be appreciated in the realm of
children's books. Clear thinking and high
thinking were never more necessary, and those
who are closely in touch with the distribution
of religious literature find that on all sides
there is an increased appreciation of this point.
People more and more realize that to have
preachers without audiences is to balk high
thought at the point of its real usefulness.
This is just as true of the printed word. That
books of finer vision should be written is a
great achievement, but it should be more
clearly understood that what is needed is
organization and co-operation to get the books
read. It takes good machinery and concen-
trated enthusiasm to get the right book to
the right reader, and, as there are only too
few who are occupied with this problem, they
need to have the co-operative spirit in order
to bring about the greatest results.
Religious Book Week
RELIGIOUS BOOK WEEK which has
its second annual observance April 2-8,
has found a usefulness and significance
that gives it an important place among the
year-round activities of the book world.
The original suggestion was brought up in
the fall of 1920 by a group of publishers and
heads of religious houses who felt that there
was a wider public desire for the best relig-
ious books and a possibility of their distri-
bution far 'beyond what was hedng accom-
plished. This committee believed that by a
study of the channels of the distribution of
religious books, by offering to those who han-
dled them new ideas and new suggestions for
their sale, and by following such a study with
a campaign of direct sales promotion, that a
great deal might be accomplished that would
have lasting effect.
The pulpit and religious press found this
idea very much in accordance with their own
line of thought, and the result of the joint
effort was a great deal of stimulus to the
whole field.

SECOND ANNUAL
Religious Book
APRIL 2-8
k
It was significant of the breadth of the plan
that all types of religious houses — Evangelical,
Catholic, Jewish, Liberal — were to be included,
using the same program and putting the same
thought forward co-operatively.
After the close of the first year's effort, the
committee in charge resolved to extend the
work to the next season, and last December
the following committee was organized :
H. W. Cressman, American Baptist Publi-
cation Society.
Vernor M. Schenck, Congregational Publish-
ing Society.
Charles M. Roe, George H. Doran Company.
Charles E. Bloch, The Jewish Book Concern.
Arthur Kenedy, P. J. Kenedy and Sons.
Arthur F. Stevens, The Methodist Book
Concern.
William Thomson, Thomas Nelson and Sons.
F. S. Braselman, Presbyterian Board of
Publication.
S. Edgar Briggs, Fleming H. Revell Com-
pany.
Donald P. Bean, University of Chicago
Press.
Frederic G. Melcher, Chairman.
Marion Humble, Executive Secretary.
As the first plan for the work had come
from members of the National Association of
Book Publishers, their headquarters were used
for the campaign details, and the committee
extended to include others who would be nat-
urally interested.
The funds for the work have been from
the general campaign collections for Year-
Round Bookselling supplemented by separate
contributions from those only interested in
religious 'books. The amount available is
double that used last year, and will provide
for eleven thousand posters, many thousand
cards reproducing the poster, thousands of
pamphlets distributed to ministers, book bands
for Easter giving, and numerous news sheets
sent to the book-trade.
The religfious press 'has taken up the plan
with a great deal of enthusiasm and under-
standing, and about thirty of the important
papers are having special numbers or special
departments on religious books.
Special emphasis has been laid this year on
the question of the importance of religious
books in the home, and the poster, with the
slogan "Good Books Are Life Teachers," is
an effort to emphasize this point. Leading
clergymen have been generous in their help
to the movement, and a score or more articles,
taking up the question of religious reading,
have 'been sent to a large number of newspa-
pers and magazines. Many new plans for hand-
ling religious books and developing interest in
them have developed from this discussion and
the committee has found that the interest this
year is to be many times that which rewarded
the first effort.
The whole .movement is one of such fun-
damental importance to the cause of sound
book distribution and appeals to such a tre-
mendous circle of readers that it ought to
become as much a permanent part of book
distribution as Children's Book Week; and
with increased study of the question there will
come increased ability to turn the occasion
to the greatest possible advantage to the
country.
Religious Book Week
A Statement
BY WILLIAM E. BARTON
Pastor of The First Congregational
Church, Oak Park, III.
I am very glad of the establishment
of Religious Book Week. It is not
enough for people to read the current
novels and magazines. Religious fam-
ilies ought to build up good libraries
of religious books. Children should be
made familiar with them in their youth.
It as a wholesome thing for every family
who cares for the higher things of life
to give attention to the additions that
are made to the home library. This
ought to include something more than
the incidental, trivial and flippant things,
which too many people are content to
buy and read. If we are to train up a
generation capable of sustained thought
and possessed of strong convictions,
there must be some attention to the
selections and purchase of good books
for the home.

What is A Religious Book?
By Harold B. Hunting
Author of "The Story of Our Bible," formerly Manager of "The Religious
Bookshop," now with McDevitt-Wilson's, Inc.
ONE of the most important religious lec-
ture foundations in the country is the
William Belden Noble series at Harvard,
In the will which was left by the founder of
the lectureship, there is a notable statement
which declares that the lectures "may include
philosophy, literature, art, poetry, the natural
sciences, political economy, sociology, ethics,
history, both civil and ecclesiastical, as well as
theology and the more direct interests of the
religious life." In other words, "the scope of
the lectures shall be as wide as the highest
interests of humanity." The only limitation
is that one end shall be kept in view, "the
perfection af the spiritual man."
From this point of view, a much more broad
and liberal definition of a religious book is
called for than perhaps as usual, at least in
most book stores. One reason why some book-
sellers have not found religious books profit-
able, may be that they have not clearly under-
stood the answer to our question "What is
a religious book?"
What is religion itself? There are many
different forms of religion or of what passes
for religion. Besides the hundreds of sects
in Christendom, there are the other great
world religions, and the countless crude super-
stitions of savage tribes. Yet we recognize,
as it were by intuition, that there is a com-
mon element underlying all these phenomena,
some fundamental human impulse manifesting
itself in all these ways. What is it? Stu-
dents of the problem seem to be approaching
agreement. Religion everywhere is closely re-
lated to the greatest satisfactions of life. It
is noticeable that agricultural tribes usually
worship gods and fertility. The "good old Ger-
man god'r of the Prussian military caste, was
essentially a war god, just like the war gods
of certain ancient nations- On the other hand
the religion of Jesus consisted in the worship
of a Father in Heaven. In other words, if
we may risk a definition, a man's religion is
his idealization of what he cares most for.
That is what all men are about, when they
are sincerely reJigioua.
This conclusion towards which we seem to
be led by the best modern students of com-
parative religion, is obviously in harmony with
the spirit of the William Belden Noble lec-
tureship. A religious book is one which helps
us to get the really best out of any of the
concrete interests of life. Literature, art,
poetry, natural science, sociology, history — all
of these may be treated religiously. In a
way, all good books might be called religious.
Certainly all truly good literature is infused
with the religious spirit. But there are cer-
tain books which more explicitly and directly
undertake to point the way to the highest goals
of life. These are the books which belong
in the "religious'* section of the general
'bookstore.
It follows from the above, however, that
in this section there must be sub-classifications.
It is a mistake to place all the religious books
in the store under the one label "Religion." If
religion is the idealizing of all the highest in-
terests of 'human life, there must be subhead-
ings. For example, there will be a section
called "Religion and Social Relations." Here
will be placed such 'books as "Christianizing
the Social Order," by Walter Rauschenbusch,
and many others advocating and interpreting
a more truly socialized religion ; a reltigion
which hotly protests against social injustice
and industrial tyranny, and seeks to know the
God of love, thru the experience of love in
everyday human relations.
There will be a section headed "Religious
Education," which will not only contain books
for Sunday school teachers, but also books
which will be helpful to parents in the train-
ing of their children. There will be sections
on ''Religious Art" and "Religious Biography,"
besides the more common sections devoted to
"Bible Study," ''Devotional Books," and "Lives
of Christ."
On the other hand, there are certain books
\vhich might be loosely classed as religious
which would .be ruled, out by the definition we
are following, for exam/pie, technical theo-
logical works and commentaries, collections of
sermort outlines and other ''homiletical helps."
All these are tools for clergymen in their pro-
fessional work, and are indirectly rather than
directly religious. Stores which cater to the
"church trade" will profitably handle them.
But they do not appeal to the ''man on the
street." The latter is not attracted, either,
by books of sectarian propaganda. He is
attracted, however, by books which really help
him to get the most out of life — in other words,
religious books of the type we have been
describing. For the religious impulse is uni-
versal.
"There are cities without theaters," said
Plutarch ; "there are cities without schools ;
there are cities wnthout wall? ; but nowhere
844
The Publishers' Weekly
have I seen a city without a temple or a house
of prayer." Religion is not confined to church
people. It sometimes seems that there is as
much religion outside the churches as in them.
Even men wiho call themselves atheists will
often be found to be deeply religious. Some-
times they make a religion of their atheism.
This is why the Bible never ceases to be the
best seller. There are also certain religious
classics which most stores will always carry
because of the constant demand for them ;
for example, "The Imitation of Christ," by
Thomas a Kempis, or, more recently, "The
Greatest Thing in the World," by Henry
Drummond. These ibooks, as well as the Bible,
tell the ordinary man in simple and untech-
nical language, something about the meaning
and purposes of life.
To ibe able to select the best among the
new religious 'books which are being published
from time to time, the bookseller does not
need a technical theological training. There
is, of course, much trash which passes for
religion just as there is trash which is labelled
"notion" or "biography." And the greater
one's knowledge, especially one's knowledge of
the tendencies of present day religious think-
ing, the more readily will one discriminate the
trasih from the worth-while books. Moreover,
the bookseller needs to study his local com-
munity. Some are conservative and some are
liberal. There are books which ought to have
a wide sale, except that the very readers who
would enjoy them are prejudiced against the
author's denomination or school of theology.
Religious prejudices are foolish, but they are
very persistent. It would be wise for a book
seller to consult the publishing agencies of
the leading denominations of his town, an re-
gard to the recent books most likely to be
salable among the laymen of that particular
church. But all this merely means that the
same common sense and intelligence are needed
in the handling of religious books as in the
general book field. The only sipecial require-
ment would seem to be a certain amount of
sympathy for the religious attitude toward
life. The man who is thoroly cynical and ma-
terialistic in his outlook will hardly make a
successful salesman in this department. But
with this qualification it would not seem diffi-
cult for any of us in the book-trade to under-
stand what a religious book really is, and to
build up a business in this type of book which
will be profitable both to ourselves and to
our customers.
Representation of Religious Thought in the
Public Library
By Elima A. Foster
Head of Division of Philosophy and Religion, Cleveland Public Library
[A paper read at the Swampscott Conference of the
American Library Association, June 24, 1921.]
IN the oity of London at the present time there
is being erected by the Bush Terminal Com-
pany a great building. Every known method
is being used to produce a structure that will
long remain, and the owners expect, however
optimistically, that its span of life will be two,
or even three, thousand years. It has been de-
cided to place a coffer in the foundations, and
the advice, of H. G. Wells has been sought as
to what should be placed in the coffer, — what,
in short, should prove of most value to the
historian of 2,000 years or so hence, desirous of
reconstructing the civilization of this year of
grace 1921. Let me read to you Mr. Wells's re-
sponse to this request for counsel.
"Difficult to make suggestions. Probably
commonplace things with their current prices
will be of as much value as anything. Safety
razor, cotton reel, bottle of pickles, and that
sort of thing. Schoolbred's catalog, pre-war
and post-war. Samples of patent medicines and
what they profess to cure. Dietary of ordi-
nary citizen ; typewriter, a sewing machine, and
so forth. Dressing-bag with fittings. Current
book on How to Behave. A kinema reel of
current events. Whitaker's Almanack and
Bradshaw's Continental time-tables (Pre-war
and .post- war). Baedeker's England. Town
maps and plans." — >H, G. Wells.
These are the things which are to constitute
our message to far-distant posterity.
Mr. Wells, somewhat declining from the high
vision of his "Outline of History," here seems
to emphasize the preoccupation with material
things which some writers deplored before the
war and which an increasing number have de-
plored since the war.
The library has, rightly, reflected this public
preoccupation. Business branches, technological
departments, have been on the increase, and
there was no demand 'made in the camp libra-
ries or by ex-service men returning to their
home towns which librarians were more de-
lighted to satisfy than the demand for books on
various trades or industries. A consciousness
grew that the demand for books of the utilita-
rian type was causing librarians to place too
March 18, 1922
845
little emphasis on some other phases of litera-
ture. For it is the proud ambition of librarians
to make the public library comprehensive and
to bring every part of the book collection to
its own degree of perfection, so that there
shall be no subject of which the library does
not possess the history, the masterpieces, and
the past and present thought of men concern-
ing it.
The purview of history which the library
gives must be sadly inadequate unless it em-
braces religious thought, for religion is coex-
tensive with the whole realm of human expe-
rience. Thru its entire course, it has preserved
these three aspects, a life, a creed, and a ritual,
and adequate library representation of the sub-
ject must include these three aspects. In an
earlier generation, books on religion were large-
ly records of personal, emotional experience,
and while William James has taught us the
proper respect for these narratives, the field
has now enormously widened, and the literature
of religion has attained a social value which
could not have been secured by the merely per-
sonal document. Adds to this development in
the field of religious literature have been the
study of comparative religion with its various
adjuncts, such as ethnology and mythology,
and the increasingly absorbing study of the
psychology of religion. Professor Pratt of
Williams College, in his recent book, "The Re-
ligious Consciousness,'' concludes as a result
of his study that religion u ineradicably
rooted in our "whole psycho-physical organ-
ism," and Professor Watson, in his Gifford
lectures, reminds us that "the history of re-
ligious ideas cannot be treated as simply the
record of different and conflicting views about
the same or kindred topics; it must be con-
ceived as the ever fuller development of a
germ that in its complete differentiation com-
prehends the whole of life."
Surely, viewing the need from the standpoint
of history, the library cannot allow a collection
of religious books brought together by any
other method than that of selection guided by
mature judgment.
The associations of pastors and other church
workers, the organized Sunday Schools and
teacher traiining institutes, the groups for the
study of the Bible, of Missions, of Church his-
tory, should have their needs considered by the
library. The worth of the material studied by
these groups has increased considerably during
the past fifteen or twenty years, and we have
adequate ground for believing that the library
can bring to the attention of those who are still
using books of the older type, the more vital
literature available at the present time.
In these groups are to be found the men
and women who, either now or later, will be
influencing others. Librarians have learned
that service to teachers is of manifold value,
in that it benefits not merely the individual
teacher but his pupils as well. A fair propor-
tion of our population listens, week by week,
to the utterances of priest, pastor, or rabbi.
The richer the intellectual and spiritual life of
these men, the more effective leadership will
they be able to exercise. Oftentimes the only
reading of the minister in the small town is a
denominational journal, and because of inade-
quate salary and lack of broadening oppor-
tunities, he is peculiarly dependent upon the li-
brary. Our obligation to these ministers and,
thru them, to their congregation is plain.
We are accustomed to think of people in
groups, because thus we find it easier to ascer-
tain and supply the books relating to the sub-
ject on which their interest is focused. But
every individual has, or should have, many in-
terests. There is no reason why the man who
uses the business branch or the technological
department should concentrate on employment
management or automobile manufacture during
all his waking hours. The stockbroker may
revel in Amy Lowell's polyphonic prose, the
street car conductor may be well versed in art
appreciation, the mechanic may refresh his soul
with the Psalms. Dr. Cabot, in writing "What
Men Live By," has named work, play, love and
worship as the essentials of real life. The li-
brary serves men in the realm of their work,
their recreation, their sense of romance. Shall
it not serve them, too, in the broadening of
their spiritual vision, the relating of their
everyday tasks to the eternal things, — inherent
elements of worship?
Emily Dickinson phrases it for us thus : —
He ate and drank the precious words.
His spirit grew robust;
He knew no more that he was poor,
Nor that has frame was dust.
He danced along the dingy days,
And this bequest of wings
Was but a book. What liberty
A loosened spirit brings !
Promotion for the Churches
IN the second year the task of the Religious
Book Week Committee has been greatly
lightened 'by the fact that the churches have
understood more exactly what was being ac-
complished and the fundamental advantage of
connecting the reading of religious books with
the church life. From all directions there
come reports of churches taking up the sub-
ject and bringing the problem of good reading
directly to the congregations. Most of the
large religious denominations are sending out
thousands of copies of a pamphlet explaining
the meaning of Religious Book Week, about
forty thousand of these having gone out alto-
gether besides the thousands of posters.
846 The Publishers' Wtekly
Meeting the Demand for Religious Books
By D. K. Medcalf,
Scrantom's, Inc., Rochester
THERE is no special formula or recipe
for selling religious books. General rules
apply to this class of literature as to any
other with, however, more thought and care
in the selection of the right kind of sales
people for assignment to a religious book
department.
The Fluffy-Ruffles can sell effectually with-
out undue strain upon a meagre mentality,
the bulk of our present day novels, but the
man or woman who is called upon to sell
theology to thinking people, either clergy or
laity, must know books, for the creed of one
as heresjy to another, and the militant church-
man doesn't easily forgive or forget.
Next in importance to having the right peo-
ple for this particular work is the selection
and maintenance of an adequate, tho by no
means excessive, stock of books and other
church and Sunday school supplies. We do
not pretend to carry a large general stock
of reference theology, as we have found that
our customers do not expect to find the heav-
ier .volumes in stock and are perfectly will-
ing to order these from a catalog.
Our religious stock is divided into the fol-
lowing classifications and of each we have,
perhaps, an average of twenty-five titles :
Mission Study,
Church History,
Sermons,
Homolitics,
Immortality,
Biography,
Devotional Books,
Religious Essays,
Expositor's Bibles,
Hymn Books,
BMes and Prayer Books, stocked in larger
quantities than other titles.
While we have among our good book cus-
tomers a number of ministers, we are afraid
it would not be possible for us to conduct a
separate Religious Department if we were to
rely upon the clergy for the bulk of our busi-
ness. Altho the latter are usually anxious to
increase their libraries, there are com-
paratively few who are able to indulge them-
selves in what would be in their circum-
stances, the luxury of buying books.
Our appeal is made to church leaders, Sun-
day school superintendents and those of the
laity who are enthusiastic church workers. As
we have for many years supplied (at a very
nominal profit) the majority of the local
churches and Sunday schools with supplies,
we have, in this way established a contact which
brings to us the various classes of people who
are interested in more serious literature. This
one fact, we believe, has contributed more to
the development of our religious book depart-
ment than anything else.
It is our custom to circularize religious
books and materials specifically about four
times a year, when we send to a large num-
ber of both clergy and laity, catalogs or lists
supplied by the larger publishers with our im-
print. We quite frequently send out folders
and letters to a selected list in an endeavor
to get business on some particular book or
item for the Sunday school.
During the past few years, a certain few
ministers have undertaken to review from
their pulpits important new books, and in some
instances, have used popular novels as texts
for their sermons. We have found it, there-
fore!, a pretty good plan to keep in touch
with these clergymen and frequently send them
gratis copies of books which \vc feel would
be of interest to them, and incidentally, by
their recommendation create or further the
demand.
We firmly believe that the book-store should
be conducted along lines which will make of
it a civic institution — on a par with the school
and college. It must reflect the best thought
and highest ideals of the community it serves
and it will then 'become a headquarters for
thinking people. To fail in providing reli-
gious literature for those who desire it, or
to neglect to stress the importance of pro-
viding children with the better kind of books
is profligately to deny two of the greatest po-
tential factors in the development of a healthy
book-trade.
Easter Greetings
THE Year-Round Bookselling Committee
has prepared a most attractive band for
Easter giving printed in deep purple with the
words "Easter Greetings" in white lettering.
There was so much demand from the retailers
for the Valentine band that this new one has
been prepared. They are sold to booksellers at
cost of production and will serve the double
purpose of increasing the interest in the dis-
plays, both in the window and on the counter
and will clinch a great many sales.

A Lending Library in the Church
By Rev. Dwight L. Bradley
Congregational Church, Webster Groves, Missouri
THERE is an obvious hiatus between the
thinking of the modern preacher and that
of the average layman. It is due largely
to the difference in opportunity for reading.
Alert ministers are in touch with the best con-
temporary writing. Business men and busy
women do not so easily discover what is most
important in the world of books. A preacher
is given the leisure or should insist upon
taking it, to select between the primary and
secondary output of modern thinkers. He is
in a position to suggest to those whose occupa-
tions keep them engrossed with other matters
just what would be most worth-while for them,
with their limited time, to read.
It has been my experience that the people
who go to church are anxious to be intelligent
about the life of their times. Some, of course,
do not care. But there is an astonishing intel-
lectual hunger among men and women today,
and hungry-minded people still, in spite of
many a rebuff, come to our churches hoping
to find the stimulation and nourishment whicn
they so crave. Here, then, is an opportunity
for the minister who really wants to do some
vital service.
In our church we have established what we
call a "Loan Library." Upon a table in the
church vestibule are placed each Sunday cer-
tain books chosen for their timeliness and
pertinence. They are taken from the private
library of the minister. They are selected with
a view to presenting our people with the best
current literature dealing with every important
side of life. All points of view that are
actually constructive, are represented. And the
types vary from a recent anthology of modern
poetry to the latest report of the Chemical
Foundation.
It may be interesting to note a partial list
of the books which are available to our congre-
gation thru the Loan Library. "What and
Where Is God?" Swain; "Clerambault," Rol-
land; "Enslaved," Masefield; "Jesus' Principles
of Living," Kent and Jenks; "Can the Church
Survive in the Changing Order?," Fitch;
"Main Street," Lewis; "The Jesus of History,"
Glover, "The Challenge of Saint Louis," Man-
gold ; ."The Education of Henry Adams" and
"The Degradation of The Democratic Dog-
ma," Adams ; "Outline of History," Wells ;
"The Young Man from Jerusalem," Ballen-
tine; "The Second Book of Modern Verse,"
'Prepared for the Religious Book Week Publicity.
an Anthology; "Creative Chemistry," Slos-
son ; and others of equally varied sort.
Just as I was writing the last paragraph, one
of the truly intellectual women of this city, a
member of the B'oard of Education and a
leader in every progressive movement of re-
form but not a member of our church, came
into the office and asked for "some more books
to read." She left with Ballentine's "Young
Man from Jerusalem," Zweig's marvelous
biography of Remain Rolland, and Robinson's
"Life of Paul." Earlier in the morning a fel-
low minister, retired, came to get the late Pro-
fessor Genung's masterful and poetic study
of the Bible, "The Life Indeed." Thus not
only on Sunday do people come to the church
to find something to satisfy their deeper crav-
ings.
Whenever some new book like the most re-
cent report from the Russell Sage Founda-
tion or Hutton's "The Proposal of Jesus"
comes from the press, I read it and transfer
it at once to the Loan Library. People ask,
"But don't you lose your books by letting them
go out like that?" Of course I lose some of
them. But it is worth the risk. Which is bet-
ter, to take a chance of saying goodbye to one
of my books by getting it into circulation, or
to keep my library intact by letting it lie idle
and dusty upon its shelves? Along with the
Loan Library there goes a program of- pub-
licity and suggestion. I speak on the books
which seem most important, or which people
are reading in greatest numbers. When I
sive a "book sermon" I always print a three
hundred word review or analysis of. it in the
church calendar. Then I paste the review into
the fly-leaf of that book. The persons who
take the book, thus, have the preacher's point
uf view, (for whatever it is worth) and can
enter the first pages with a general preparation
of mind. In the case of "Main Street" it was
important to have an analysis ; for to the un-
analytic mind the novel appeared either a
grotesque caricature of American life or a
complete picture of social conditions. The
same value is found in careful analysis of Rol-
land's poignant "Clerambault."
I can think of nothing more important than
for the preacher to use every available means
to bridge the gap between his own thinking
and that of the people in the congregation.
And the Loan Library is one potent means. It
is a bridge of bread span.

A New Impulse to Religious Reading
THE Religious Book Week Committee has gathered from many prominent leaders an
expression of opinion as to the importance of wider religious reading. These articles
have been sent out over the country to the religious press and daily papers and give
a valuable indication of the real meaning of the movement. A few typical papers are
reprinted here by permission of the Committee.

A Man and His Reading
By Harry Emerson Fosdick, Author of
"The Meaning of Prayer," etc.
O OMETHING very significant has happened
*J to a man when he realizes that in books
the greatest souls of the world will come to
call on him as tho there were no one else on
earth whom they had to call upon.
"What do you read, my lord?'' said Polon-
ius, and Hamlet answered, "Words, words,
words." Many a modern vicitiim of the inven-
tion of printing might say the same. With all
the readiing that is done, how few people know
the experience which made Mrs. Browning say,
''No man can be called friendless who has God
and the companionship of good books."
Some books are our servants. They run
errands for us. They are mental drudges.
They bring us information; they tell us news;
they keep us up-to-date; they equip us for our
trade. But the great 'books are not our slaves ;
they are our masters; we sit at their feet
to learn. "Look." they say, and, looking we
catch new visions of life's significance. "Con-
sider," they say, and considering, we ore cap-
tured by a new truth and our spiritual power
is multiplied. A man's life is made by the
hours when great ideas lay hold upon him and
except by way of living persons there is no
channel down which great ideas come oftener
into human lives than by way of books. Said
Charles Kingsley, "Save a living man, noth-
ing is so wonderful as a book."
Many people shrink with a kind of modest
reticence from claiming the greatest 'books as
their own. They think that the great books
are for scholars and specialists, not for plain
people. Upon the contrary, the specialist has
his library of learned messengers to run
errands for him and for him alone, the engi-
neer his books on engineering, the economist
his books on economics, but the great books
are for us all. They spring, not out of spe-
cialties, but out of the depths of the human
heart. When Macbeth sins and his conscience
faces remorse like a tide returning to a shore
we all know what that means and whenever
a great creative book strikes a deep note it is
sure to be dealing with an elemental experi-
ence which is shared by us all. A significant
day dawns in a man's life when he says to
himself, "The supreme books of the world
belong to me."
Most of the books we read are like the rain
water that fell last night. It is a superficial
matter and it soon runs off. But the literature
of creative spiritual power is a whole sea — the
accumulated spiritual gains of the ages — and to
know it and to love it, to go down beside it
and dip into it, to feel its vast expanse, the
currents that run thru it and the tides that
lift it, are among the choicest and most reward-
ing privileges that man can enjoy.

Devotional Reading
By Raymond. Calkins, Author of "Christian
Idea in the Modern World"
A SERIOUS problem confronting the teach-
*» ing ministry is how to furnish constructive
religious information to one's congregation. It
is without doubt true that the religious think-
ing of many people who go to church more
or less regularly is unformed, and lacking in
foundation and consistency. This they freely
admit. Their older views of Christian truth
have gone, but new ones have not replaced
them. They are not willing to dismiss the
Christian teaching, indeed they continue to be-
lieve it. Yet they do not possess solid reasons
for believing it which they are able to formu-
late for themselves, and much less for others.
They are looking around for religious literature
which shall aid them to do just this thing. A
book to help them must be fairly brief ; it must
be readable ; it must go to the point ; it must be
constructive and convincing. The hunger for
such reading among the rank and file of people
in the pews of our churches is considerable. If
the right tneans of calling really helpful books
to their attention could be found and utilized,
such reading would become general, and would
have the most beneficial results.
The publication boards should co-operate by
preparing and mailing to parish ministers care-
fully prepared lists of such reading material.
A recent search among bookstores revealed that
even the best known book dealers had no such
lists. They had the lists of different publish-
ers, but no compendium of such literature. The
average parish minister is too busy to prepare
such a list for himself. Moreover, he lacks the
necessary apparatus. The educational boards,
however, could render this effective service.
Only books that have been carefully tested and
chosen would have a place, and these would t>e

arranged topically so that the reader would be
guided in his selection.
The printing of the titles of such books on
church calendars and an indication of where
they could be conveniently secured, would
doubtless uncover a wiide demand for them. The
mention of such books in sermons rarely fails
to bring a response or request for them. Pub-
lic libraries will be glad to co-operate so long
as the religious teaching is in no sense sec-
tarian. No form of religious education so much
needed in these days is more immediately prac-
ticable than this.

Religious Literature for a Secular Age
By Dr. Maurice H. Harris, Temple Israel
WE live in a secular age. People do not
read the Bible, Commentaries, the "Imi-
tatio," the devotional and sacred literature that
comprised so much of the reading of the faith-
ful of two generations ago.
Yet the religious forms a not unimportant
part of modern secular literature. We meet
its problems in a new context even in what,
from a conservative standpoint, might rashly
be called the irreligious. We meet it in the
"Undying Fires" of H. G. Wells ; in "Back
to Methuselah" of Shaw ; in President Emeri-
tus Eliot's "Twentieth Century Religion" ; in
the idealism of Henri Bergson and also in the
attempt of the hour to harmonize the con-
clusions of evolution with fundamental beliefs
in classic faiths. We note in all of .these mod-
em books a dissatisfaction with materialism,
with utilitarianism, and with mechanical the-
ories of the universe. They have been tried
and they have .been found wanting, and the
modern, even tho he may call himself an ag-
nostic, is groping for something better. We
note this particularly since the war that under-
mined the faith of some and deepened the faith
of others. We see it in the momentary revival
of spiritualism — a desire to reach out into the
unknown beyond.
In this state of disturbed emotions, in a
demoralizing tendency — the war's aftermath —
we see the vital importance of religious lead-
ers directing the reading of the age into the
right channels in a way to stimulate the noblest
aspirations. We must seize this hour to pre-
sent the perennial spiritual truths in the inspired
writings of the past, but thru the medium of
modern thought. Modern religious literature
must take into account the science and philos-
ophy of to-day if it is to be read by the very
sophisticated generation growing up in our
homes and passing thru our colleges.
It calls for the ripest judgment, the most
reverent handling and the mastery of new con-
ditions to present convincingly those eternal
verities that ever have been and ever will be
the saving of the human race.

Books to Help, Give Cheerful Beliefs
By Charles W. Eliot, President Emeritus,
Harvard College
" A BOUT thirty years ago in an address
*»first delivered at Phillips Academy,
Exeter, I spoke as follows: 'We may be sure
that cheerful beliefs about the unseen world,
framed in full harmony with the beauty of the
visable universe and with the sweetness of the
domestic affections and joys, and held in com-
pany with kindred and friends, will iluminate
the dark places on the pathway of earthly life,
and 'brighten all the road.' Now, as we draw
toward the end of the long period of intense
human suffering which the Great War opened,
it seems to me that such illumination is much
needed, and that book publishers can do much
to increase and diffuse it.
"I am particularly glad to hear that the secu-
lar book publishers are joining again this
spring with the religious book publishers in a
Religious Book Week /'n which special em-
phasis will be placed or the value of religious
books for the enrichment and education of chil-
dren and adults.
"Is it rash to hope that* book publishers will
give preference hereafter to religious publica-
tions from which both children and adults can
imbibe cheerful and hopeful beliefs about God
and man in the world that now is?"

Don't Pickle Your Books
By Russell H. Conwell, Author of "An Acre
of Diamonds"
DON'T pickle your books. Cucumbers- may
be put in a firkin and stored in the dark
back cellar. But books are for constant use,
and should be in sight and within reach. Or-
namental books are often blocks of wood. They
are just as good and better, if books are sought
as ornaments. There are ornamental hired
men, but books must work.
They should be old friends and welcomed to
the easiest seat next the fire. The home maker
should be familiar enough with the books to
shake hands with them, kiss them, and wipe
the dust from their faces. A book is a well or
spring, you drank from yesterday, your visi-
tors drink today, and there is no less water for
to-morrow. Books cheer up a home always,
sometimes brilliantly.
After the Bible, the need of selection is ap-
parent : for the fertility of the farm, the profits
of the store, the cost and taste of the meals,
the attendance at church, the cut of the clothes,
the conversation and music, the friendship and
love, and the good deeds will be the harvest
of good books sown about the living rooms.

Religious Book Week
By WilKam Chalmers Covert, Author of "New
Furrows is Old Fields," etc.
I am one who is profoundly grateful that Re-
ligious Book Week has been put on the cal-
endar of many churches. It is pleasing to know
that it has taken on the significance of a ritual-
istic observance for many thoughtful individ-
uals.
If we cannot find authors who combine a
compelling style with a great religious message,
and publishers who combine the genius of book
making and salesmanship with a real moral pas-
sion, and clergymen who combine an honest ad-
miration for what other men have written with
a masterful purpose of arousing the reading
enthusiasm in others — then the greatest agency
now at the disposal of the Kingdom of God
for reaching the hearts and minds of millions
is to be blocked at the gateway of limitless
usefulness and power/!
The responsibility for giving wider power to
printed religious truth must in quite large de-
gree rest jointly on this impressive trio. Or
perhaps it would be best said that any success-
ful program for the development of nation-
wide interest in religious reading must involve
the sharing by these three factors in the equa-
tion of a common -vision of what ought to be
an intelligent and comprehensive plan of co-
operation in the realization of it. This working
together means success to a very large extent.
Perhaps the least aware of the three factors
conditioning success of Religious Book Week is
the clergyman. He comes slowly to realize the
priceless value to his great work of a religious
book well read by men, women and children
of the congregation.
Now and then, more often now, when he
watches a reading enthusiasm sweep thru his
parish like a tidal wave after O'Brien writes
a book about the South Seas, or Sinclair Lewis
elaborates the doings of "Main Street," he says
"Gold help me, Pll study to capture that won-
derful soul-stirring, heart-warming reading
spirit for a great religious message, and float
thru these same fine channels of parish life
and power, a book that will set my congrega-
tion into a fine spiritual frenzy. I'll strive to
find a way to get this community momentum
behind some wholesome inspiring religious
chronicle, discussion, biography or a story and
make it thus the theme of a parish sermon or
the topic of household conversation and in every
way a definite contribution to the higher life
of the congregation."
Dominie Turned Bookseller
D EV. George Duncan, a Scottish Doctor of
*^ Divinity and a well-known lecturer in
Scotland and England, hale and hearty at the
age of seventy and a bit, is an assistant in
Foyle's second-hand bookshop in Charing
Cross Road. In an interview about his new
work, Doctor Duncan said to the Dundee
Courier :
"My duties here at Foyle's as theologian
tutor are to help ministers and students to
deliver their discourses by selecting the suit-
able volumes, and give them any advice that
may be necessary. In this respect I am kept
going from the time of my arrival, which is
seven-thirty in the morning, until three-thirty
in the afternoon, without a break, and thou-
sands of books pass thru my hands weekly.
The li'brary I have at home is a splendid col-
lection, and so classified that I am able to
select any book in the dark.
"As to my future activities," concluded the
Doctor, "I am at liberty, so far as the firm is
concerned, to go to any part of the country to
resume my lectures, altho I am very satisfied
with my present occupation, and I think, I
should feel inclined to refuse the pastorate
orf a church if it were offered me."
Summer Business Course
AN opportunity for business men to make
an intensive study of business principles
is presented by the announcement of a new
feature in the Chautauqua summer school. A
series of ten lectures will be given by H. C.
Baldwin of the Babson Statistical Organization,
these lectures coming twice daily from July
i7th-28th and repeated from July 3ist-August
10th. Sales and advertising, accounting, in-
dustrial and labor problems will be presented.
The fact that Chatauqua also has a course in
library training suggests the possibility that
some day it might be persuaded to plan a good
course on bookselling which many would find
opportunity to attend.
New Guide Books
JUST IN TIME, it is hoped, for the Washing-
ton convention, Henry Holt & Co., are to
publish Rider's "Guide Book to Washington,"
which will be followed later by one on Ber-
muda and still later by a California guide.
Rider's "New York Guide Book" was pub-
lished some years ago and there has been much
trade interest in the continuation of this series.
Fremont Rider, the author and compiler, is
well known to the book-trade, as for many
years he was managing editor of the PUB-
LISHERS' WEEKLY.

Does It Pay?
«KTO matter how clever may be his copy,
*'^l how 'beautiful his displays, how great the
approval of his contemporaries, or loud the
praise of his sales organization, sooner or later
the advertising manager must meet the supreme
test — Does it pay?
"Capital has started out to understand what
this thing called Advertising is — what it does,
how it does it, and what it can be expected
to do.
"Capital is sold on advertising — but it is not
yet sold on the idea that the advertising men
have any control of its power.
"Distribution should cease to be burdened
with those wastes which have too long con-
tinued because some managers maintain that
nothing done in the name of sales and adver-
tising could be bad per se, because you could
not be sure about what it should have been !
"When advertising refuses to meet the test
of returns, it simply refuses the businesslike
demand of the job-— a condition of business."

27th Annual Report of the Booksellers' League
THE New York Booksellers' League
rounded out its twenty-seventh year on
March I5th when the annual report was
presented at the monthly dinner. The guest
of honor was Judge Charles L. Guy, of the
Supreme Court of the State of New York,
who delivered a charming address on idealism
in American life and the influence of books
in its development. Robert E. Sherwood, the
far-famed actor-bookseller, who writes of the
silent drama weekly in Life told the story
of the film in a most interesting talk, with
side lights on some of the star actresses. He
announced his intention of starting bookstalls
in the lobbies of the film theaters and hopes
to have three of them installed in New York
during the spring season.
During the evening David J. O'Connell, a
popular statesman of Brooklyn, was elected
president of the League for the coming year,
and siix members of the present Board of
Managers were re-elected for another term.
Annual Report
In presenting the 27th Annual Report of the
Board of Managers of the Booksellers' League,
it is desired not only to give a sum-
mary of the activities of the past year, but
also to bring to the attention of every man
engaged in the book business, the fact that the
Booksellers' League has been a factor in bring-
ing about a betterment of trade conditions.
In the report of last year, it was said in part :
"For twenty-six years the Booksellers'
League has been the representative organi-
zation of the wholesale and retail book-
trade in New York City and vicinity.
"This organization has been the means
of creating a wider acquaintance among
those engaged in the book business and
thru its monthly dinners, has brought to-
gether during these years men of the trade
who would probably never have become
acquainted in any other way.
"The kind of entertainment provided at
the dinners and other meetings of the
League has made for the betterment of the
profession, by creating not only a spirit of
fraternalism among its members, but a feel-
ing of pride in the calling and a spirit of
loyalty, as well as an active interest in all
the efforts as an organization to better
trade conditions."
We take the liberty of quoting also from an
article in the Bookseller & Stationer by one of
the best informed men in the book-trade,
Charles E. Butler. It is quoted because it cor-
roborates what was claimed in our report.
"The Booksellers' League owes its origin
to C. A. Burfchardt of E. P. Dutton &
Co., who more than 25 years ago was
inspired in a'dreani, which stayed with him
on awakening. Others were drawn in — me,
too — to help) carry out the inspiration, and
the result was tihe formation of The
Booksellers' League, the first one in the
United States.
"What this has done for the bookseller
of New York is written in history and
tradition. It has done wonderful and bene-
ficial work. It has changed the whole
social and trading condition, from a stud-
ied aloofness of early days, to a warm
and lasting comradeship of the present day.
This has resulted in trade betterment and
closer relations between all in the New
York trade, elimination of petty trade
jealousies and useless and unfair competi-
tion. Its monthly dinners, with prominent
speakers, its long educational campaign in
educating the booksellers, is done at a very
small individual cost."
These articles are quoted for the enlighten-
ment of those in the book-trade who have
failed to join the Booksellers' League because
they could not see "what good an organiza-
tion, otf this kind ever did." Mr. Butler knows
of conditions before the Booksellers' League
existed and he appreciates how great an im-
provement has (been brought about by bringing
the men together in such an organization.
Record of the Past Year
Mr. Lacy, chairman of the Entertainment
Committee, finds it more difficult each year
to secure the kind of speakers he knows the
members are .most interested in. He would
be very grateful for any help or suggestions
along this line, tho the speakers of the past
year ihave compared most favorably with those
of previous years.
Surely everyone present at the March din-
ner enjoyed the uncommonly fine lecture on
"Dante" as the great man of the ages, by
Dr. James J. Walsh, of Fordham University.
'Traprock Night" at the October dinner was
without doubt one of the most enjoy able even-
ings the members of the League have ever
spent together. George S. Chappell as Dr.
Walter E. Traprock of the "Cruise of the
Kawa," proved to be a delightful entertainer.
Mart King also held his audience with many
well-told humorous stories. Heywood Broun
spoke on book publicity, and his hopes in
respect to its more intensive development in the
daily press.
854
The Publishers' Weekly
At the November dinner Professor John
Erskine gave an interesting talk on "John
Milton, His Life and Times." At this din-
ner Joseph Wharton Ljppincott's "Talks About
Animals," illustrated with colored lantern slides,
proved most enjoyable. Frederic G. Melcher
delighted his audience by comparing several
oC the animals shown on the screen to some
types of booksellers and buyers.
The speakers at the January dinner were
Shaw Desmond, author of "Gods," "Passion,"
etc., and John Farrar, editor of the Bookman.
Mr. Desmond amused his audience by his hu-
morous explanation of why some books had
a big salq, while other books, including his
own, which he thought were very much bet-
ter, ifailed to reach a large public. Mr.
Farrar told of some of his plans as editor of
the Bookman.
Ladies' Night dinner and dance held at the
Hotel Brevoort on February isth was, as
usual, a very popular affair. Richard Le Gal-
lienne spoke on "The Human Side of Books."
Henry Collins Brown showed pictures of old
New York and gave an interesting and instruct-
ive talk on them. Miss Ida Bensey Judd gave
readings from Moliere.
Membership
The increase in memership during the past
year has been very encouraging as it shows a
desire to affiliate with the League on the part
of those who have lately entered the book-
trade. Fifty-six new members were elected
during the year. The loss by resignations and
death was thirteen, leaving a net increase of
43 ifor the year, with a total membership of
.207. This is a long way from the desired
membership of four hundred. Every one is
urged to get a new member for the League
this coming year ; it can be done if all will
only try.

Report of School Committee
[EDITORIAL NOTE.— The Course in Book-
selling, which was started under the aus-
pices of the League on January 6th, 1921, and
conducted by Miss Graham was fully reported
in the last issue of the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY.]
The Employment Bureau
During the past year the number of appli-
cants for positions open far exceeded the call
for helpers. While there were forty-seven
who enrolled for work, only twelve were
placed. In this period of general business re-
adjustment "ifew died and none resigned,"
making it therefore a very lean year for those
seeking employment. The registration fee of
one dollar was invested in further publicity
for the applicant by the insertion of a classi-
fied advertisement in the PUBLISHER' WEEKLY.
J. A, HOLDEN, Manager.
The Board wishes to thank those who re-
sponded so cheerfully and successfully to its
appeal for new members ; 56 new members
was very good work, but yet there is room,
still there are many waiting to be asked. Do
not wait until we start a school on "How
to Secure New Members." Be a real sales-
man, sell the desire to become a member of
The Booksellers' League to your friends in
the trade. Do it now. Boost the member-
ship to 400.
The Board extends its thanks to tfie PUB-
USHERS' WEEKLY, also the Bookseller and
Stationer for the publicity given the affairs
of the League thru their columns.

English Learned Societies and
Their Publications
THE new issue of the five-year "English Cat-
alogue" just received from London contains
as an appendix a list of the learned societies
and printing clubs of England with a list of
all publirntions between 1916 and 19^0. This
furnishes a valuable check-list for libraries
and collectors of the literature in these special
fields. The catalog itself covers 1280 pages
with over 45,000 books entered. This catalog
is volume ten in the series of ''English Cata-
logue,'' including the original "London" and
"British" catalogs and completes the series
•from the year 1801. There is also dn the volume
a new list of the English publishers with their
addresses.

Women Booksellers' Fifth Annual Banquet
ONE of the largest and most successful gath-
erings that the book-trade has had in many
years took place at the Hotel McAlpin on the
evening of March pth, the fifth annual banquet
of the Women's National Book Association. In
five years this association has steadily increased
in activity and membership, and its commit-
tees have always been able to plan an annual
banquet that would 'be one of the features of
the ibook-trade's year.
Nearly three hundred sat down to the din-
ner. At the head table Belle M. Walker,
President of the Association and editor and
publisher of the Bookseller and Stationer, pre-
sided. Among the speakers were Alice Duer
Miller and Hugh Lofting. A message from
E. Phillips Oppenheim came by radiophone
from his steamer which had started for Europe.
This feature, permitting him to send a mes-
sage direct to the booksellers was arranged
for by special permission of the Government's
Board of Control of Radio.
"I am asked to send you a farewell message
— a brief record of impressions collected dur-
ing my too brief stay in your country. And
because it is you — the women of the National
Book Association, who asked me, I am doing
my best an these last few minutes of hurry to
comply, for the world in general owes a debt
to you who interest yourselves in the distribu-
tion of books — the world in general and the au-
thor in particular.
*'I find, dr seem to find, the little corner of
America which I have visited changed. Whilst
France lies exhausted after her years of agony
and shows signs of the faint querulousness of
the invalid on the way to convalescence ; whilst
England lies manacled by the iron grip of in-
ordinate taxation, depressed and with all the
spontaneity of living being slowly crushed out
of her by impossible burdens, you aJone of the
nations seem to be walking with firm footsteps
in the new world. Your period of tribulation
seems to the traveler to have already passed.
You have gained a new dignity and breadth
of outlook with this your great adventure in
the world which so sorely needed your help.
I fancy that I see signs of the passing of that
spirit of somewhat selfish introspection, that
purely acquisitive passion for the rapid build-
ing up of success which ten years ago existed
as an atmosphere and was reflected from the
faces of your citizens. You have gained, it
seems to me, in poise and deliberation. The
eyes which were fastened once upon the near
things gaze now across the sea. Sympathy is
born with outlook. The dramatic magnanimity
of your statesmen at Washington seems to
have been conceived of this new spirit. A part-
ing guest pays you homage for it.
"Prohibition is, perhaps, the most striking
external change in your country so far as the
casual visitor is concerned. One's first impulse
is to find cause for humor and even ribaldry
in an enactment which is openly and flagrantly
broken by those who have always been law
abiding citizens. But as the days pass one
realizes there is another side to this matter.
The saloons are closed. Several large manufac-
turers with whom I have talked assure me
definitely that their work people are saving
more money and that their output is increasing.
These things make one think. It is at least
a law born of the desire for greater spiritual-
ity. It may have been framed a little too rig-
idly— it may be capable of wholesome and rea-
sonable amendment, but it is an experiment
which the whole world will watch with inter-
est. I, for one, do not presume to judge it.
"I bid you au revoir, my friends in America,
and particularly you of the Women's National
Book Association. Yours is a great work — per-
haps the greatest field of endeavor in the world.
Books are part of the life of the thinking man,
his mental sustenance as well as his relaxation..
Every description of written word has its mes-
sage. Increase the sale of books and you in-
crease the mentality of the race. So I wish
you Godspeed in your efforts, and when these
are turned toward fiction do not forget your
friend, E. Phillips Oppenheim."
Laura Simmons wrote for the occasion the
following parody of Kipling's famous poem.
IF—
(Of Bookselling)
If you can sell your books, when all about you
Are selling theirs, and each in different dope ;
If you can meet fool questions that would
flout you;
Yet keep your head and reason, within
scope;
If you can stoop — and not be tired by stooping —
For catalogs, thrown down in aisles and
stairs —
Can fit each) author to his price and publisher;
(And yet don't talk too glib about your
wares) ;
If you can root for Harold Bell and Gene,
And treat both those disasters just the same;
Find calories for females stout and lean —
In short, Omniscience be your Christian
name;
856
And is Tahiti off in China flowery?
Jurgen a town, or cheese? They've no idea!
One Hergesheianer sells pants on the Bowery ;
Is he die gent wrote this here Cytherea?
If you can blurb — and not make blurbs your
master—-
Of pallid souls; starved lips and smouldering
eyes —
(As old as Noah is their sally gesture —
Methuselah had nothing on those guys!)
Hand out a line on Diarists and Mirrors —
The hot air bunk of Margot and of Qare ;
Of Oppenheim that gets away wit' moider ;
And feature Wells's philosophic flair;
If you can make one heap of mad sex-sinnings,
Of scrambled loves, of vamip and injured
wife —
And start again with endings and beginnings,
When Psycho-analysts take joy from life;
If you can bear to tell some poet — 'hungry —
His rhymes are duds ; and not a sale yet
made:
And being hated, never show you're angry,
But pile fresh romance for the flapper trade;
If you can fill each irritating minute
With superhuman wisdom, nobly won —
Your stock is Sold ! and everything that's in it !
And, which is more — you've boosted Art,
my son.
Among other guests at the head table were
Frederick A. Stokes, Ralph Wilson, President
of the New York Booksellers' League, Alex-
ander Black, author of "The Great Desire" and
Dorothy Speare, author of "Dancers in the
Dark." After the program had begun, Mr.
Black was introduced as the inventor and pro-
moter of a new patent Sellophone, and two
large packing boxes were brought dnto the
room. Apologizing for not taking time com-
pletely to unpack the cabinets, Mr. Black de-
scribed this important invention and promised
to give an example of how authors could sell
their own books. From megaphones that ex-
tended from the top of the boxes came
witty selling talk as delivered by Shakespeare,
Heywood Broun, Charlotte Bronte, Sappho and
Harold Bell Wright. After the messages had
been delivered, the mechanism was explained
and the boxes proved to contain Ethel R.
Peyser, writer of the text and Mr. Braham,
who is associated with David Belasco. Dorothy
Speare, whose book "Dancers in the Dark,"
was given out by Doran as one of the souv-
enirs, added to the program by singing in clever
imitation of the style of Galli Curci and Ger-
aldine Farrar. The guests took home as other
souvenirs a copy of "Prince Shan" by Oppen-
heim, a copy of "Guest the One Eyed," by
Gunnar Gunnarsson from Knopf, a "Splashme
The Publishers' Weekly
Doll Book" from Stokes, all of which could
be carried home in a Zane Grey bag supplied
by Grosset & Dunlap.
Selecting the Best Slogan
•"THE Year-Round Bookselling Committee
*• has asked the co-operating dealers to give
their idea as to what is the best slogan to be
used in the fall and winter campaign, selecting
one from those that have been itried out or
suggesting a better one. Those that have
found most favor are :
BUY A BOOK A WEEK
FIND IT IN BOOKS !
TAKE ALONG A BOOK
WHAT DO YOU READ?
BOOKS THE YEAR ROUND
Suggestions of others should be sent to the
Committee at 334 Fifth Avenue.
NOTICE
Extra copies of last week's issue of
the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY (March nth),
with its Index to the new books of the
Spring Season, will be supplied at a
nominal cost of 15 cents each. A copy
might well be placed in the hands of
every clerk on the floor.
Australian Publishing
FOR the collector of authoritative material
on the war there comes from Angus &
Robertson of Sydney, Australia, the first vol-
ume of "The Official History of Australia in
the War." The set is to be complete in twelve
volumes and to contain two thousand maps and
illustrations, giving in great detail the story
of all actions in which Australian troops were
involved. The publishers expect to be three
or four years in completing publication.
A Bookshop on the Stage
DURING last season the big show at the
Hippodrome in New York featured as
one of its special scenes the interior of a chil-
dren's bookshop, which gave a very friendly
boost to the book idea. A bookseller visiting
a vaudeville performance in New York in
February was interested to find that the scene
of the act of Bronson and Renee was laid in a
bookshop with bookshelves all around and
apparently with real books, at least in part of
the space. One of the songs was called "Main
Street."

FEBRUARY WINDOW DISPLAY OF A FOOTBALL STORY ARRANGED BY GRANT S BOOK SHOP.
Are Books Seasonal Commodities?
THE book-trade has been insisting that the
sale of books need not at all be highly con-
centrated on a few months, and this insistence
has been gradually proving its way. Still fur-
ther experimenting on this point, Lambert
Grant of Grant's Bookshop, Utica, has insisted
that it is not necessary that certain types of
books be sold only in certain seasons. To
make the experiment concrete, he insisted that
a good football story could be sold in February
just as well or better than in November, and
that, while a November display might do
nothing more than to send the passerby around
the corner to buy a ticket to the game, in Feb-
ruary the same enthusiasm could not be thus
diverted and would bring the football enthusi-
ast into the store for a purchase.
The window display with which Mr. Grant
carried this thought out is a model of careful
preparation, and the result from a ten days' dis-
play was of very decided interest, the sales of
this specific title running well over fifty cop-
ies. The football scene was constructed to vis-
ualize an actual game between Harvard and
Center College as related in the story "First
Down Kentucky" by Ralph D. Paine. Cellu-
loid dolls Sl/2 inches high were used, and the
colors of the foot-ball suits were put on with
enamel paint. The players were arranged with
the trained advice of a varsity half-back, and
from day to day different special plays were
set up and carefully posed.
Mr. Grant considers that this experiment in
testing out off-season sales was well worth
trying.
School Library Program
ABROAD program of library usefulness is
to be presented for consideration at the
library department meetings of the National
Education Association at its big Convention
in July by Sherman Williams, President of the
Section, and Chief of School Libraries divi-
sion of New York State. This program gives
a broad view of the place of the library in the
community.
A Library Program
1 The library is an educational institution
made up of various agencies, the two most im-
iportant being the school library and the public
library.
2 The school library should be the heart and
center of the school work.
3 It should be so used as to train pupils to
use a public library intelligently.
4 Pupils should be so instructed as to want
to read books that are worth while.
5 There should be a collection of books in
each schoolroom suitable to the age and pur-
poses of the pupils.
6 Teaching children to read is of little value
unless they are taught what to read, and are
provided with the right kind of books.
7 The public library should serve as a con-
tinuation school for those who have finished
their school life.
8 Public libraries should be supported by
public tax as are the public schools.
9 Librarians should be as specially trained
for their work as are teachers for theirs.
10 All people should have easy access to
libraries.

The Publishers' Weekly
Bookselling Course Closes
AT the final session of the bookselling
course, conducted by the New York
Bookseller's League at the New York
Public Library, Miss Graham awarded prizes
for the best answer to a questionnaire of
twenty-five questions which had been given out
at the previous session. The first prize went
to Nannie B. Winston of Richmond, Va., who
has been in New York studying bookselling and
who has in mind opening a bookstore in the
South. Her prize for answers that were 100
per cent correct was a copy of "The Magnifi-
cent Farce" by A. Edward Newton, in the
front of which he had written "Not to 'buy a
book a week' is as bad as to wear a celluloid
collar or as to use a gold toothpick."
The second prize went to Emily McDevitt,
of McDevitt- Wilson's, Inc. The volume was
a first edition of Agnes Repplier's "Books and
Men" autographed for the occasion by Miss
Repplier. As there were ties for the next
three, Miss Graham presented three books,
autographed by Christopher Morley : "Parnas-
sus on Wheels," "The Haunted Bookshop" and
"Shandygaff." These were won by Grace E.
Dhu of Bamberger's, Newark, Muriel Simpson
and Ethel Frankenstein, both of Abraham &
Strauss, Brooklyn.
Miss Graham in her closing address ex-
pressed the hope that this experiment might
be one step toward the goal of having a per-
manent school of bookselling established, and
she recommended, that in further experiments,
there should ;be more work required of the
students, more discussion from the audience
than is the present plan, and she also expressed
the feeling that a library course and one in
bookselling should be combined.
Ernest Eisele, of Brentano's, talked on book-
selling methods abroad. He pointed out that
in Europe the publisher feels much more
responsible for the ultimate distribution than
he does in this country. The publisher in
Europe does not send out salesmen, but uses
announcements in the trade paper and sends
out 'books on consignment according to the
size of the outlet. In France, thru the new
book headquarters, samples of all new books
are sent out to each bookseller. Under the
German plan, outright purchase is rewarded
by extra discounts, consignment rates being
asbout 25-30 per cent off the list price, with
about 10 per cent more in the case of outright
purchase.
Booksellers, he said, are in very close touch
with their public from the school child on.
Most of the stores, too, use the monthly period-
icals as a means of keeping them in touch with
their customers, all magazine subscriptions
being delivered by the bookseller instead of
being sent by mail.
In France, he explained, there are no re-
prints of good titles, as is the common (practice
in England and in this country. He felt that
this gives the booksellers a keener interest in
keeping a representative stock of the best
literature. The new building of the Maison du
Livre has fine rooms set off for a bookselling
school which it is hoped will be started
shortly.
Holland and Denmark, he believed, are
the best organized of any of the countries. In
Holland the seven hundred booksellers each
has his bin at the central headquarters and all
orders received in the morning mail are scat-
tered to the various publishers and reassem-
bled in these bins for shipping by three o'clock.
Germany has had the most thoro system of
training for bookselling, and before the war,
the course was of two years at government
expense. Candidates for both the bookselling
and publishing business studied together, and it
was a common practice for those who intended
to be booksellers to take one or two years after
graduation in a publishing office and for pub-
lishers to spend one or two years in the book-
selling field, in order to understand fully the
whole situation. Sweden has a school sup-
ported by the government and by the trade
associations.
There is one type of book catalog which is
common in Europe and which has no exact
counterpart here. This is the classified list,
giving in small compass a list of all the best
titles on a given subject. The French book-
trade is about to have a new series of such
catalogs, and the book-trade uses them to hand
to customers wtho would like further to pursue
reading in some special direction. Another
form of book promotion highly developed is
that of the elaborate prospectus, a means by
which the bookseller solicits orders for the
more elaborate books. Some of these are so
elaborately made that a price is set on each
copy.
The success of the course had largely de-
pended on the continuous work of four men
whom Miss Graham mentioned with special
appreciation in her final remarks, Ernest
Eisele and Mr. Krasner of Brentano's, D. B. :
Browne of Himebaugh & Browne, and Ralph
Wilson of McDevitt- Wilson's, Inc.
THE ESSAYS and plays of John Jay Chapman
are now published by Robert Cecil MacMahon.
This includes a group of six volumes of essays
and six volumes of plays as well as a new
edition of five hundred copies of "Notes on Re-
ligion."

Short Story Prize Winners
THE best short stories of the year of 1921,
according to the award of the O. Henry
Memorial Committee, was "The Heart of
Little Shikara," by Edison Marshall -which ap-
peared in Everybody' * for January last (first
prize of $500) and "The Man Who Cursed
the Lilies," by Charles Tenney Jackson, in
Short Stories magazine of December loth last
(second prize of $250). These two prize win-
ning stories head the list of sixteen tales
•which will be published in book form by Dou-
bleday, Page & 'Co., on March 22nd under the
title of "O. Henry 'Memorial Award Prize
Stories of 1921." This is the third year of
the prize. In announcing the prizes, Dr.
Blanche Colton Williams of Hunter College
and Columbia University, Chairman of the
O. Henry Memorial Committee, makes an inter-
esting resume of the short stories published
in American magazines during the year.
Results in 1921 differ in a number of re-
spects from those of 1919 and 1920. In the
earlier half year, January excepted, every
reader reported a low average of current fic-
tion, so low as to excite apprehension lest the
art of the short story was rapidly declining.
The latter six months, however, marked a
reaction, with a higher percentage of values
in November and December. Explanation of
the low level lies in the financial depression
which forced a number of editors to buy fewer
stories, to buy cheaply, or to search their vaults
for remnants of purchases made in happier
days. Improvement began with the return to
better financial conditions.
Two characteristics of stories published in
1921 reveal editorial policies that cannot but
be harmful to the quality of this art. These
ear-marks are complementary and yet para-
doxically antipodal. In order to draw out
the torso and tail of a story thru Procrustean
lengths of advertising pages, some editors
place, or seem to place, a premium upon length.
The writer, with an eye to acceptance by these
editors, consciously or unconsciously pads his
matter, giving a semblance of substance where
substance is not. Many stories fall below first
rank in the opinion of the committee thru fail-
ure to achieve by artistic economy the desired
«nd. The comment "overwritten" appeared
again and again on the margins of such stories.
The reverse of this policy, as practiced by
other editors, is that of chopping the tail,
or worse, of cutting out sections from the
body of the narrative, then roughly piecing to-
gether the parts to fit a smaller space deter-
mined by some expediency.
The O. Henry Memorial Award Committee
•was created by the Society of Arts and
Sciences of New York in 1918. The commit-
859
tee consists of: Blanche Colton Williams,
Ph. D., chairman; Edward J. Wheeler, Litt. D.,
Ethel Watts Mumford, Frances Gilchrht
Wood, and Grove E. Wilson. The Society of
Arts and Sciences will award the prizes at the
annual dinner to be held on the evening of
March 22nd.
Telling All the Plot
THE habit of completely divulging the plot
of a novel in writing its review has often
been inveighed against in the book-trade, as
that kind of review is of far more value
to the newspaper that prints it as a piece of
pleasant reading for its clientele than as an
inducement to a customer to buy the book.
A columnist in the current issue of the Erie
Railroad Magazine says: "A friend of ours
writes :
" 'I started to read a review of Mrs.
Burnett's "The Head of the House of Coombe"
in the newspaper, and when I found
that the reviewer was spoiling the story by
telling it all to me, I dropped the paper. Don't
you think it's an outrageous thing" for a news-
paper to do?' "
"Yes," said the, columnist, "it's worse than
that, and no self-respecting newspaper ever
does such a thing. It is unfair to both author
and publisher who depend on telling and sell-
ing stories for a living."
Book Censure in the Time of
Dante
TPHE suppression of obnoxious opinion
*• appears thru the centuries in varied forms.
It should be interesting to learn of the diffi-
culties of booksellers in the thirteenth century.
Dr. Gottheil, of Columbia University, has just
published an the Journal of the American O -i-
cntal Society the sad tale of Moslem hetero-
doxy in the days of the crusades. A book-
seller, Shams al-Jazari, who did business at
the Bridge of the Feltmakers, published a
Bolshevist book that declared the true tales
of the Koran were 'but foolish myths and corn-
plained of the bad chronology of the Prophet.
The title was "The Whetted Sword, an Answer
to the Koran,." This bookseller had the nick-
name of "The Irresolute," a quality not un-
known to-day. The censor came to the book-
seller and asked for the book, but was met
with the answer that it had been returned to
the author and destroyed by the latter. Never-
theless he was held and only escaped by the
intervention of wealthy Christians who had a
"pull" with the Tartar over-lord of the day.

the Loyal Legion.
Traver to His Sons
CLAYTON L. Traver, of Trenton, N. J.,
on his sixty-fifth birthday, February iStih,
deeded to his two sons, Morris S. and Lewis
B. Traver, the building, stock, fixtures and good
will of his 'book business at 108 South Broad
Street. He is to keep in touch with the busi-
ness, but will have more time to travel with
his wife. The deed of gift thus made is in
line with the custom established by the orig-
inal Morris Traver, who founded the business
fifty years ago and turned it over to Clayton L.
before reaching the age of retiring to inac-
tivity.
English Publisher Here
GEORGE G. HARRAP of George G.
Harrap & Company, Ltd., London, has been
spending a fortnight in New York and has
now left for Philadelphia and Chicago.
George Harrap, Jr. of the same firm has
sailed for England, having met his father
in New York after a trip to Australia in the
firm's interest.
Mr. Harrap's list is one of the long and
varied ones in the English trade, including
.largely educational books and books for chil-
dren. The firm is the English representative of
D. C. Heath & 'Company, and has marketed in
England the Volland "Sunny Books." Among
other well-known series on their list are sev-
eral Pogany color 'books and handsome edi-
tions of "The Three Musketeers," "Lorna
Doone," imported by Jacobs, Evelyn Paul's
illuminated books, "Claire de lune," etc., which
have been successfully sold here by Brentano.
The well-known "Myth Series,'' which Stokes
has marketed in this country, is also one of
their publications. Specializing, as they do,
in colored illustrations, a great many of their
books have been widely used for school prizes,
a field of bookselling that prevails in the
English market and which could well be de-
veloped further on this side. Mr. Harrap
expects to pass thru New York again on his
way to London.
Film Censorship in New York
THE Senate at Albany has passed on to the
Assembly a bill which would give even wider
power to the State Motion Picture Censorship
Commission. The Bill would permit the Com-
mission to examine the manuscripts from which
the films are taken and it would also grant
subpO2na powers to the Commission.
The Convention Souvenirs
THE local Entertainment Committee for the
big Washington Booksellers' Convention is
making especially careful preparations for the
banquet and believes that the New Willard
Hotel will do the occasion ample justice. Simon
L. Nye of S. Kahn & Sons, Washington, is
Chairman in charge, and any publisher who
would like to have a new book among the
brief list of souvenirs that are given out on this
occasion should write directly to him.
The Wind Blows
A STRAW showing an indication of busi-
ness progress is found in the current re-
port of the Post Office Department, made pub-
lic last week. This shows that a tabulation
of the business of the fifty largest post offices
in the country indicates an increase in receipts
for February of 641% over the same month
last year. Parcel ,post centers such as Chi-
cago have Shown a decided increase.

Rare Books, Autographs and Prints
AN expression of preference by the fresh-
men of Radcliffe College, at Cambridge,
was recently taken as to their favorite
works of fiction. Dickens led, with "David
Copperfield" and "The Tale of Two Cities"
tying each other for first place. Thackeray,
Scott and Hardy tied for second place.
English, French and German colored prints
of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in
mezzotint and stipple, Arundel Society prints,
and finely colored aquatint views of American
and foreign places collected by the late John
B. Pease of Roxbury, Mass., will be sold at
the American Art Galleries, Thursday evening,
March 23.
A second division of the great Lotz-Brisson-
neau collection of prints by Auguste Lepere,
this one devoted to wood engravings, has been
placed on view in the Knoedler Galleries. M.
Lotz-Brissonneau was the friend and cataloger
of this artist's work, and the prints he secured
for his own collection shows Lepere's art at
its best.
Henry Van Dyke's story of "The Other
Wise Man" has just ibeen translated into
Corean and published in Seoul. Translations
of this story into Italian, French, Dutch,
Japanese, German, Frisian, Spanish, Armenian,
Swedish, Portuguese, Araibic, Malayan, and
Chinese have already appeared. Few modern
stones have been translated into as many
languages or so widely scattered over the face
of the earth.
"Two Poems" by John Freeman, in a thin
large octavo volume, bound in blue boards
with linen back, designed by Bruce Rogers
and printed at the press of William Rudge, at
Mount Vernon, N. Y., limited to 425 copies
and published by Maurice Firuski. Dunster
House, Cambridge, has just appeared. Col-
lectors have long since learned that the initials.
"B. R." never fail to stand for typographical
excellence in any volume in which they appear.
On Novemer 21, 1921, King George V. issued
a proclamation granting arms to the Dominion
of Canada. Stanley Harrod has made a fine
etching of the new arms, proofs of which may
be obtained from printsellers or directly from
Alfred Fowler, Board of Trade Building,
Kansas City, Mo. The proofs are printed in
warm-toned ink, on large paper measuring
7l/2 by 10 inches, each bearing the artist's auto-
graph and limited to 500 copies.
Every time that there is a fire in or near a
Government bureau at Washington, like that
recently at the Treasury Building, the agitation
for a national archive building breaks out
afresh. Records, priceless to historians and
others invaluable to the Government lie much
scattered among the departments and subject
to serious fire hazard. Advocates of an archives
building are pressing for action this session.
There is the usual talk of economy, but a plan
to protect valuable government property is
itself a form of economy that should appeal
to the common sense of even the average con-
gressman.
"My Boyhood" is the title of a posthumous
volume which collectors of the first editions
of John Burroughs will not want to miss. It
will be published by Dotfbleday, Page & Co.,
on March 24, and is the story of the natur-
alist's childhood written some years ago for
his son Julian who has written an introduction.
It is a picture of Burrough's boyhood on his
father's farm eighty years ago and tells of the
self-contained, self-sufficient household where
they raised their own food, made most of
their own clothes, furnished their own enter-
tainment and led a life as different from ours
as that of the stone age.
Francis R. Hart has written and Houghton
Mifflin Company will publish "Admirals of the
Caribbean," the romantic story of the great
admirals of the Spanish Main whose battles
won there made the settlement of Virginia and
Massachusetts possible and determined " the
nationality of North America. The volume is
profusely illustrated with portraits and rare
prints. There will be two hundred copies of
a large paper edition, bound with white vellum
back, black label, and yellow sides, printed on
handmade paper with mounted illustrations.
Many collectors of Americana will be inter-
ested in this special edition and it will be
necessary for them to order promptly for it
will not last long.
The historical library, formed by the late
James Phinney Baxter, Mayor of Portland,
Me., will be sold at the Anderson Galleries,
March 20, 21 and 22, by order 6f its present
owner, Hon. Percival P. Baxter, Governor of
the State of Maine. The library is especially
rich in historical material relating to Maine
and other New England states, including a
wide range of town histories with their geneal-
ogical data. Here are rare tracts of the French
and Indian War, the Revolutionary period,
works on witchcraft, the North American in-
870
The Publishers' Weekly
dians, especially of New England, and much
miscellaneous Americana. This is a collection
that should especially interest librarians, for
there is much unusual historical material in
good condition that will sell for moderate
prioes. Of course there are rarities that the
collector will be willing and obliged to pay
good prices for.
A reader of this department asks an ex-
planation in regard to the rise in value of
Quarles Quickens's "English Notes," Boston,
1842, a satire on Efickens's "American Notes,"
which 'brought $45 at the Brady sale at the
American Art Galleries, December 3, 1917,
and $800 at the sale of the Wilkins Dicken-
siana recently at the Anderson Galleries. Of
course the principal reason is the growing
belief that Edgar Allan Poe wrote this book.
Before the Brady sale a 'bookseller had cata-
loged it for $1,450. The cataloger of the
Brady copy apparently was Jess sure than the
bookseller as to its authorship, not placing the
item under Poe, and this seems to account in
a measure for its low selling price. In the
meantime, Joseph Jackson of Philadelphia, in
an introduction to a limited edition of "English
Notes" has made out a very strong case for
Poe. The catailoger of the Wilkins copy was
alive to the recent developments and made the
most of them. If another copy were to appear
in the auction room now it would doubtless
show an advance over the recent high price,
for the general conviction seems to be growing
that Poe was its author.
Several consignments from oversea, together
with the remainder of the library of the late
Daniel F. Appleton of this city, was sold at
the Anderson Gailleries, March 6, 7 and 8,
945 lots bringing $13,941.50. The highest price,
$1,275, was brought by a beautiful, early fif-
teenth century manuscript "Horae Beatae
Moriae Virginis" engrossed in Gothic char-
acters on 213 leaves of vellum and bound in
red velvet with brass clasps. Other important
lots and the prices which they brought were

To those looking for a book on the present social problems, written from a religious
point of view, we recommend this book, as Dr. Roberts has vital knowledge and a wide

not Christianity but an inherited system of Christian thought. $1.50

written especially as a study for intermediiate groups. Paper 55c. Cloth 950.

This book is to be used every day in the year. The prayers, Bible readings and

Alchemic Gold has gone thru the experimental stages and is now

It is a practical substitute for genuine gold or imitation
gold leaf that will not tarnish, rub nor lose its lustre.
Used on book covers it will give wonderful results at a
fractional cost of gold stamping and at a much lower cost
than any imitation gold leaf.
Elaborate decorative designs will cost no more than plain
stamping, as the price is not based on the surface covered
with ALCHEMIC GOLD.

ELINOR GLYN
who is now in Los Angeles directing the production of her new photo play,
has just finished her new story. Please note that it will be published in
May. A unique and snappy color jacket is being prepared and an extensive
advertising campaign planned, as we believe that this novel will be considered
the greatest of Mrs. Glyn's literary achievements.
MAN AND MAID
By ELINOR GLYN
The "war of the sexes" has not been better portrayed than in this able romance
of Sir Nicholas Thormonde, his friends "The Fluffies" and "The Girl." It
possesses all the qualities which have made Elinor Glyn's previous books so
famous, but with new direction and power. Price $2.00

Ready April llth Price $2.00
Readers will always flock in large numbers to read stories of the Kentucky
mountain folk, that ring true — witness the popularity of John Fox, Jr. This
new novel is the "real thing;" the author knows and loves the country and
its people. She depicts them with vivid sympathy in this powerfully appealing
story of Ailsie Steward, Kentucky girl, whose romance with Stanley Irving,
scion of an aristocratic family, brings her final great happiness, but only after
great cost. A graphic tale with characters that fairly live.
THE BRACEGIRDLE

The popular demand for clean and wholesome stories of Love

intimate love story of "Anne Bracegirdle" a famous English
actress of the 17th Century. We believe that it will be
numbered among the successes of the season.

Author of ' The Last Straw, ' ' c * Bruce of Circle Ay ' ' etc.
Big, powerful, tremendous — The first novel of Conserva-

And the reason Mr. Titus has given us so powerful, so
dramatic an account of the struggle, to him tragic,
between the Destroyer and Conserver of White Pine,
is because he felt the tragedy of forest waste, forest
destruction through and through and has risen in
indignation against the ruthless destruction of his play-
ground.
His novel is an inspired work straight from the heart.

oj An Important Book
Walter Lippmann's
Public Opinion"
A Necessary Book
A study of the force that governs politics and social relations. With
the fall of the last of the great autocracies of Western Civilization, an analysis
of this intangible force has become of intense interest to the average thinking
man. In its proper direction lies the success or failure of democratic govern-
ment.
It is a question that is as old as human thought, a problem for which
the war and its censorship and the increasing influence of the press has given
us an insatiable curiosity.
"Behold! Human beings living in a sort of underground den—
their legs and necks chained, so they cannot move and can only see
before them."
"And they see only their own shadows, or the shadows of one
another, which the fire throws on the opposite wall of the cave?"-
"If they were able to talk with one another would they not sup-
pose that they were naming what was actually before them." — The
Republic of Plato, Book Seven.
The Author
Mr. Lippman's book represents ten years of study and of active political
and journalistic work, as an Assistant to Santayana at Harvard, an Editor
of the New Republic, Assistant to the Secretary of War, Secretary of the
organization directed by Col. House to prepare data for the Peace Conference,
an Editor of the New York World.

The Minister's Own Reading
THAT the minister himself should not
only talk of religious books but plan
more systematically for his own read-
ing was the contention of a news letter
sent out in connection with Religious Book
Week by the Chicago Theological Seminary.
"This Book Week," said the circular, "is
a significant development which should have
the co-operation of all ministers. It should
be a time of resolution for the minister. He
ought to be thinking ahead to the summer
when he will surely want to do serious read-
ing. Unless he does plan ahead, summer will
come without the fund ready for the purchase
of books and without a list of volumes dis-
criminatingly chosen. Three things the minis-
ter may well consider at this time :
"i. Put away something each week for book
purchase and watch reviews for lists.
"2. Began the study of some choice devo-
tional book such as Peabody's 'Sundays in Col-
lege Chapels', Glover's 'Jesus Jn the Exper-
ience of Men,' Kent and Jenks's 'Jesus' Prin-
ciples of Living.'
"3. Begin the serious study of some volume
of genuine scholastic merit, to mention but
three: Smith's The Age of the Reformation,'
Campbell's The Southern Highlander amf
His Homeland,' Park and Burgess's 'Introduc-
tion to the Science of Sociology.' "
Who Will Caravan This Year?
BOOK caravaning in this country, as far
as the sale of books is concerned, is now
two years old, and as the open season ap-
proaches it will be interesting to watch whether
more caravans will appear, and the book get
wider representation in the highways and by-
ways. So far, the east has been the scene of
the pilgrimaging, the Caravan of the Bookshop
for Boys and Girls in Boston having covered
New England, and the Appleton Caravan hav-
ing toured Long Island last summer. It is re-
ported that E. M. (Ted) Robdnson, the col-
umnist of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, who
launched a bookshop in the Fine Arts Build-
ing in Cleveland this winter, has planned to
close his shop and get into a motor car with
books when summer arrives. His itinerary is
to be thru Ohio. It is a very happy
plan for the manager of a small shop to pack
up thus and see new places and make new
friends who may be of continuing value in
the winter's business.
Distribution Cost Doubled
THE chairman of the joint commission
which has been investigating price levels
for Congress has issued a statement
showing that its investigations indicate that
the cost of marketing and distributing pro-
ducts in this country has doubled since 1913.
This investigation followed the hearings in
Washington which had endeavored to place the
responsibility for the high cost of living. The
statement of Chairman Sidney Anderson reads
as follows :
"The costs of distribution were increasing
slowly but steadily prior to 1913. So far as
we can ascertain they have about doubled since
1913, and today the costs of distribution repre-
sent about one-half of the price which the final
consumer pays. These increases in cost do
not occur in any one place in the line of dis-
tribution. They occur as a part of the price
of every element of service performed in con-
nection with the distribution of the product all
along the line. This means that the spread
.between the producer's and consumer's prices
must, for the most part, be reduced by more
efficient methods of distribution, by reducing
unnecessary transportation hauls, by more effi-
cient merchandising methods, hy more closely
relating output to market, by speeding up turn-
over, by redwcing unnecessary stocks and
otherwise shortening and speeding up the steps
between the producer and the consumer."
Current Progress on Tariff
THE Ways and Means Committee of the
House has been proceeding steadily thru
the various schedules in the revision of the
Fordney Tariff, and it is expected that it will
l)e reported to the Senate by the first of
the month, at which time the details will be
available. There is still no agreement between
the two branches of Congress on the subject
of American valuation i-s. foreign valuation,
902
The Publishers' Weekly
the House contending for the former and the
Senate for the latter.
Current reports indicate that the eastern
manufacturers, in order to get the high sched-
ules they have wanted, have been obliged to
grant high protection on raw materials to the
Western delegations. It is expected that the
rates will be generally higher than the high
levels of the Payne-Aldnieh Act. There seems
to foe reason to hope that the additions in the
free liist on books will be 'brought about, as
the pressure in tihat -direction has been so heavy.
Whether the book-trade is to suffer from an
increase in rates on current books cannot be
yet told. If American valuation is adopted,
the interchange of books between England and
this country will undoubtedly be seriously
handicapped.
Co-operative Book Advertising
THE Publishers' Adcluib, which was organ-
ized in New York last fall among the adver-
tising managers has been studying book promo-
tion thru advertising in its various phases, and
has at a recent meeting proposed and found
support for a plan for co-operative display ad-
vertising which will cover eight newspapers
thruout the country. Sixteen publishers have
so far signed up to the program, which may be
outlined as follows :
A two-column advertisement is divided into
•one-inch spaces of single column widths, each
publisher 'being allotted one space to describe
the book that he would like to promote in this
way during that month. The specially lettered
heading for the double column reads : "Guide
to the Month's New Books Now On Sale At
Your Bookseller's."
The papers an which this is to appear are the
San Francisco Chronicle, Los Angeles Times,
Cleveland Plain Dealer, Baltimore Sun, Min-
neapolis Journal, Denver Times News, St.
Louis Post Dispatch, Detroit Ncivs.
The space has been arranged for the first
book page day of each month, beginning with
April and running thru March of next year.
The proofs of the advert»s*m( nts are to be
sent to the 'booksellers in these cities just be-
fore the time of release, and the forms close
three weeks before the date of publication.
Of the papers selected five run their book
pages on Sunday, two on Saturday and one on
Wednesday, and tihere is a total circulation of
1,223,000.
Hotchkiss to Speak at Convention
THE Program Committee of the American
Booksellers' Association announces that
it has just heard from John T. Hotchkiss,
Manager of the retail book department of J.
K. Gill Company of Portland, Ore., that he
will be one of the speakers at the Washington
Convention. Mr. Hotchkiss has been one of
the most active Contributors to the discussion
of better bookselling methods, and has con-
stantly added to the discussion of retail pro-
motion. Mr. Estabrook of the Program Com-
mittee feels pleased to have a speaker come
from so long a distance to cover the assign-
ment.
New York Pressmen Accept
Arbitration Award
BY the vote of a Union meeting on March
igth, the New York Newspaper Web Press-
men's Union Number Twenty-Five decided to
accept the arbitration award announced last
month which went into effect on March
20th. This decision, while maintaining the
present wage scales, gave to the publishers a
control over shop conditions that they had not
had for some time. The vote rejected the
rules for* applying the award which had been
proposed by the Newspaper Publishers' Asso-
ciation and appointed a committee of two to
meet with two from the publishers to straighten
out any disagreements. If these four dis-
agree, a third party will be introduced. The
President of the Union states that he believes
the award is impractical for the publishers as
well as for the men, but that the committee
will try to make it workable thru the medium
of standing committees.
Traveling Costs
THE campaign to find ways to reduce the
cost of keeping traveling men on the road
is going actively on, and considerable publicity
has been given to the survey recently com-
pleted by the National Council of Traveling
Salesmen. This survey disclosed that in 164
firms alone the traveling staffs have been re-
duced from 2392 in 1917 to 1621 at present, and
that the average number of weeks out has
been cut more than five weeks a year to keep
costs down. A special effort is being made to
obtain an interchangeable mileage book to cut
the cost from 3.6 per mile to 2.4. The Na-
tional Association of Book Publishers has been
co-operating with other national groups in this
campaign to get these lower rates.
The Interstate Commerce Commission has,
however, presented a report to the House,
holding that the bill directing the commission
to order the sale of interchangeable mileage
books at a rate lower than the existing tariff
was unconstitutional. The opinion was based
on a decision by the Supreme Court in which
the court held that an authorized reduction in
mileage book prices was not for common
benefit, but for the benefit of a favored few.

The Making of a Bible
THE first method of binding books was
probably that employed as early as the
6t)h century and known as the Byzantine
style of binding which makes binding a much
older art than that of printing. The monks
had carried the art of binding missals and pre-
cious works written by hand wonderfully or-
namented to a very high plane. The written
leaves were iastened together and inclosed in
covers of wood which were often decorated
with jewels and ornaments of gold and silver.
Most of these books were destroyed by people
seeking the gems that were supposed to be hid-
den in the thick wooden covers.
A Standing Reward
Between the roth and the I4th centuries, the
monks in England, having copied and improved
the designs of books brought from the East, be-
came the foremost binders of Europe. The in-
troduction of the printing press gave a great
impetus to the trade of bookbinding; and, as
the number of books increased, the art of book-
binding steadily improved. To-day there are in
existence not only well preserved specimens of
the ancient binders' art, but splendid examples
of the highly developed skill of the modern
binder.
The Bible, the greatest of all books, is prob-
ably the best example of book-binding, repre-
senting as it does all thru the ages, the va-
rious methods, forms and artistic skill of the
book-binder. From the crude materials of the
early centuries, we now have the exquisitely or-
namented bindings of the finest leathers, as well
as thousands of binding styles for every-day
use. In Bible making not only does the bind-
ing present opportunities for showing the
trained skill of the traiined artisan but all the
other steps in the process of the making of a
Bible present exacting requirements not met
in ordinary ibookmaking. A visit to a modern
Bible manufacturing plant gives one a new
sense of appreciation for the beautiful editions
of the world's best book available to the 2Oth
century reader.
The first step 'in such a tour of inspection
is naturally the composing room. It is here that
the type is set up. One learns the astounding
fact that in setting up a Bible it is necessary for
the compositors to handle 3,566,480 letters, not
to mention punctuation marks ! Accuracy is se-
cured by proof-reading the entire volume seven
times. One of the large Bfible publishing firms
has a standing reward of Five Dollars to be
paid to the person who first reports a typo-
graphical error. This reward, it is said, is sel-
dom earned. Not only does the setting up of a
Bible involve the handling of an exceptional
amount of type matter, but in making the ref-
erence editions, the work becomes exceedingly
complicated. These editions have a center
column containing in the neighborhood of 50,-
ooo references to other chapters and verses and
it will readily be seen that this multitude of ab-
breviations and figures must be accurate. In
addition, small letters must be carefully fitted
to the words in the text matter which indicate
the references to which they apply.
The type matter having been made tip into
pages, it is then sent to the foundry where each
page is plated. These plates go to the press-
room where rows of high-powered machines are
ceaselessly printing, eight hours of every work-
ing day of the year, in the effort to keep up
with the constantly increasing demand for the
Bible.
The press-room has its own peculiar problems
in Bi'ble making. Chief among these is the se-
lection of papers that are most suitable. The
printer must find a paper that will result in a
volume no bulkier than an ordinary book, and
yet the one he is making contains about eight
times the number of words in an ordinary
length novel. This problem has been partially
solved iin the use of thin, high-grade paper,
which, while it is thin, is also opaque and
strong. But even this high-grade paper used
in the making of the ordinary editions of the
Bible has not marked the ultimate improve-
ment in the printing material. A further, and
what has been called a revolutionary, step was
taken in the use of extremely thin paper known
as India paper. It is so thin that thirteen hun-
dred sheets measure only one inch in thickness,
yet the print on one side does not show thru to
the other.
Much Hand Work
The flat, printed sheets are then taken to the
bindery. Here they are folded and collated,
that is arranged so that they will follow in or-
der. The next step is the sewing, which is
done wiith a fine quality of Sea Island cotton.
The higher-priced editions are sewn with silk.
The edges are now trimmed and rounded,
colored red and the gold leaf applied, which.
when dried, is burnished. The sheets are now
ready to be cased in, that is covered with what-
ever material is to be used. The hides of thou-
sands of animals are used each year in Bible
binding. Cattle, sheep, goats, pigs and seals
are used, only the better portions of each skin
being suitable for this purpose. The making
of a divinity circuit (overlapping) cover re-
quires great skill and accuracy. The cover is
cut to the precise size from a part of the skin
which is without blemish and the edge all
904
The Publishers' Weekly
around is carefully pared so that it may be
neatly turned over the lining which may be of
paper, linen or leather. The trimmed and gilded
sheets before described are now securely glued
to the back of the 'bindiing. Securing the sheets
to the back in this manner by means of a spe-
cial glue, re-enforces the back with the strength
of the leather and gives that flexibility so de-
sirable in a Bible. A head band, cut to the
exact siize, is then inserted at the top and bot-
tom of the back of the sheets, adding to the
volumes strength and finish. It has often been
remarked that the best grade of leather bind-
ing as done abroad. This has been explained
by the fact that the foreign binder of to-day
is, in many cases, working at the same bench
occupied by his father and grandfather before
him. This gives him an inherent skill that en-
dows his product with a degree of finish and
excellence that seems attainable in no other
way.
It is surprising how much of the work nec-
essary in Bible binding must be done by hand.
This is due to the shaping of the turned over
edge, the great variety of sizes, and the ex-
treme accuracy with which the sheets are fitted
into the covers. It is because the covers are
so carefully fitted that it is unwise to place pa-
pers or other materials in a Bible as this will
result .in a broken back.
Millions of copies of the Bible are being
made in just this manner every year and are
finding their way to all parts of the earth.
Market for American Books in Brazil
ttT^HE lack of American books for sale in
1 Rio de Janeiro, particularly during the
past holiday season, has been very noticeable"
writes W. L. Schurz, Commercial Attache in
Rio de Janeiro, in Commerce Reports. "This
is in sharp contrast to the case of American
magazines. Most of the standard American
periodicals can be purchased regularly in at
least three local bookstores and on some of the
news stands along the Avenida. However,
practically all of tihe books written in English
that are sold locally are of English origin.
"While the total number of American read-
ers in Rio de Janerio and the immediate neigh-
borhood can not exceed 2,000, there must be
added as possible buyers the growing number
of transient Americans who frequently desire
to buy American books. It might be stated
that the unsatisfactory parcel-post service dis-
courages the direct buying of books from the
United States by persons who might otherwise
use this means of securing them. There are
probably 4,000 British residing permanently in
and about this city who are generally very con-
servative in buying books, and prefer those of
low price and very ordinary appearance and
contents. Moreover, an increasing number of
Brazilians are learning English and demanding
books written in that language.
"As to the classes of American books that
should have a sale, there is a good demand for
those of a scientific nature, including treatises
on medicine, different branches of engineering,
industrial processes!, and general technical sub-
jects. Some of these are now found in stock
locally, but there is no doubt more could be
sold. There are few scientific works in
Portuguese, and a reading knowledge of Ger-
man is not common among educated Brazilians.
The largest number of scientific works dis-
played in local bookstores are in French, as
acquaintance with that language is virtually
universal among those who read books.
"Few works of American fiction are ever
seen in the bookstores of Rio de Janeiro, and
these are generally British reprints. The cheap
Tauohnitz (German) edition of American and
English titles has appeared again in this market
in competition with a similar British collec-
tion. Cheap British collections, such as the
Nelson Library, are also sold locally. The
more serious current publications in the field of
general literature of American houses never
find their way to Brazil. Another class of
publications for which there should be a fair
demand is American juvenile books, which
are of a superior class. It is common for
these books to be read by Brazilian children
who are studying English."

de Janeiro may be obtained from the Bureau
of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, or any of

Femina-Vie Heureuse Prize
MISS ROSE MACAULAY'S novel "Dan-
gerous Ages," has won the l:e minor Vic
Heureuse Prize awarded by a committee sitting
in Paris to an English work of imagination
published between June 3Oth, 1920. and June
20th, 1921. The three novels selected by the
English Committee to be submitted to the
Committee in Paris were : Francis Brett
Young's "Black Diamond,'' Rose Macaulay's
"Dangerous Ages." and Katharine Mansfield's
"Bliss." "The Black Diamond'' was only one
vote behind Miss Macaulay's novel.

Good Book- Making
THAT the book buyers and booksellers have
become steadily more interested in book-
making and in the effect of sound produc-
tion on book sales has been evidenced by many
comments heard in the trade. Three or four
people have, since the first of the year, writ-
ten detailed letters of criticism on the pres-
ent state of book manufacture, and, instead of
printing these letters separately, they have
been gathered into an article soon to be
printed. People realize that the publisher
has at his disposal in these days great facilities
in the way of good 'types, variety of binding
cloths, perfected binding and machinery, all of
which, if well directed, can produce books
of high quality as well as attractive appearance.
As has been before emphasized in this de-
partment, those who best understand book man-
ufacture are critical, not so much of the partial
failure of good intentions as of lack of ade-
quate attempt to make books measure up to
their best possibilities. It has been often com-
mented on that typography alone has a marked
effect ory the circulation of a magazine, and in
that field the effect of appearance can be more
closely judged than in the book field where
no two books can be exactly compared. Such
magazines as the Dial, the London Mercury
and the Atlantic, to speak only of those that
depend on typography alone for their attractive-
ness, undoubtedly hold readers because of the
appeal of the type page to the eye. No one
can accurately estimate how many books may
be passed over by those who go over them on
the counter merely because they are not appeal-
ing in appearance. To this handicap to selling
there is added the other waste which comes
from people who get the book collecting habit,
but who find that many books purchased dis-
appoint them.
Among the attractive books of the last few
weeks is Putnam's printing of "If." a play in
four acts, by Lord Dunsany, the composition
and the presswork of the Knickerbocker Press.
The type page, selection of paper and the plan
of the binding are all very admirably carried out.
In the field of poetry the most interesting
volume that comes to hand is "Odes and
Lyrics" by Hartley Burr Alexander, Marshall
Jones Company. This volume is printed on
handmade paper with a beautifully clear im-
pression of the type, a model of what an octavo
volume of poetry can be, and most appropri-
ately bound. Another excellent volume of the
same size is Holt's edition of Walter de la
Mare's 'The Veil and Other Poems." This
is also excellently and appropriately bound.
Holt has also to his credit the attractive, tho
simple volume on "The Poetry of Dante" by
Benedetto Croce.
Another good book from Marshall Jones
Company is the Ralph Adams Cram volume
entitled "Towards the Great Peace," one of
the Dartmouth alumnae lectureships. In type
planning, make-up and binding this leaves
nothing to be desired.
Among well-made volumes of fiction there
is a book attractive in every way from Mac-
millan, 'IGlenwood of Shipbay," by John H.
Walsh, good in type page and paper, satisfac-
tory in binding with a very excellent wrapper.
Stokes has made a good fiction volume out
of William Dana Orcutt's "The Balance;" and
Brentano has a good volume in "The Doom
Trail." Stokes has also made an attractive
book of its "Caruso and the Art of Sing-
ing" by Fucito and Beyer. The binding is es-
pecially attractive.
Among many good volumes of miscellaneous
character we select "An American Diplomat
in China," by Paul S. Reinsch (Doubleday,
Page & Company), "The Adventures of a
Tropical Tramp," by Harry L. Foster (Dodd,
Mead & Company), "Banking and Business."
by Willis and Edwards (Harper), "The
Greater Rumania," by Charles Upson Clark
(Dodd, Mead & Company.)
A very interesting piece of book planning
in a special field is the volume published by
Doran entitled "A Century of Banking in New
York," by Henry Wysham Lanier. The text
matter calls for a great deal of special work,
letters, footnotes, tables, cuts and all of this
has been done with great taste and judgment
by the Gillds Press. The volume is one of
the most interesting of the year from the
point of view of manufacture.
The Atlantic Monthly Press has reissued
in very attractive shape M. A. DeWolfe
Howe's book on "Boston Common." originally
published by Houghton Mifflin Company. The
same type has been used and fits well into the
smaller volume. There is a postscript chapter
with extra illustration.
Hungary Bans Walt Whitman
THE Hungarian Commissioner of Educa-
tion, forbidding the circulation in Hungary
of the political works of Walt Whitman,
translated into Hungarian for the first time,
has declared them subversive of law and order.
The prohibition is also due to the fact that
the translator is a Communist refugee in
Vienna.

Reminiscences of a Book Scout
By Joseph Jevvett Barton
VII. ' The Amenities of Book Collecting' '
1 SUPPOSE there is no calling or profes-
sion that contains so much pure romance
as bookhunting. Trout or bass fishing, at
its best, is its nearest competitor, considering
it as a sport. With an open mind, the situa-
tions met are often very humorous. It has
its glamor and fascination, and I regret to
say it also has mean and sordid, and some-
times pathetic phases, which I do not like.
It is all very well to match wits or specific
knowledge with another bookseller, or do
somebody first .because he shows the inclina-
tion to do you, but these rules of action
and protection apply to a small percentage
of transactions.
We had just finished dinner one evening,
this happened in Brooklyn, when the buz-
zer warned us we were going to have a
caller. When I went into the living room
I found a young woman, probably in the
early twenties, sitting there with a baby on
her lap — quite a new traby, too. Their appear-
ance was not very prepossessing ; not par-
ticularly neat nor clean.
I gathered from her rambling talk that
Mr. S., the editor of a local paper, had ad-
vised her to come to me. She said she had
some books which she wished to sell. I asked
where the books were and she produced from
a handbag, three miserable little nothings,
not even good enough for a ten-cent counter. ,
I handed the books back to her and said
I regretted that I could not use them. Her
face fell, she looked so dejected and disap-
pointed that in an effort to cheer her up and
make a little conversation I asked if she had
any other books. She replied that she had,
but did not think they amounted to any-
thing, as she had picked out the ones she
thought were of the greatest value. Of course
that did not mean anything to me, as most
people pick the wrong ones, so asking her
address, I told her if she so desired I would
come and see what she had the following
afternoon. This did not seem especially to
please her, so I inquired why. She finally
admitted that if there were any chance of
her selling me anything she wished I would
come at once, as one of her other children
was sick, and this was almost a final effort
to raise cash for immediate needs.
This was the winter of 1918 — that real
winter. I hated the idea of leaving a per-
fectly good steam-heated apartment to chase
around in some mean street where in all
probability the house was cold, smelly and
generally disagreeable. But I went, and the
place was even worse than I thought it would
be. The dining room, or was it a kitchen,
also served as a bed room and general living
quarters, lighted, and heated, by an old oil
lamp. The .books were impossible. I tried
hard to find something of interest, but I
could not. I hated to leave; she seemed so
badly up against it, and wondered if I had
not better offer to buy all the books and
then dispose of them to the junkman as
paper. That seemed the best way out of it.
As I sat there seeking for words, an old
hide-covered trunk, the kind with the hair
on, poked itself into my eye. I remarked that
it was a fine old trunk, and husband Jim re-
plied that it had belonged to bis grand-
mother, who had recently passed on from
the State of Massachusetts to a better world.
Of course I wanted to know, "What is in the
trunk, anything?" "No, nothing but a lot
of old letters."
It has been said that in my early years
when mother wanted me, she generally found
me in a corner of the library with a stamp
catalog, a purloined glass of crab apple jelly
and a large piece of cake. I suggested that
perhaps grandma had known somebody of
importance in her day and that among the
letters there might be some of interest to
me. I imagined I could hear Jim and his
wife groan internally at such a foolish idea,
but they were perfectly willing that I should
look at the letters.
As I lifted the lid I got a fine odor of
damp, mould and general decay and I could
hear myself coughing all the next week. One
look at the top layer was enough for me, and
I turned to Mrs. Jim and said that if she
needed a little ready money at once, I had
ten dollars that she could have, as I felt sure
I was going to find something that I could
use. My offer was immediately accepted,
and Jim, picking up an empty medicine bottle
and a market basket, made a quick exk.
I shall not go into all the harrowing de-
tails, but sometime later while I was still
taking letters out of their covers and piling
the covers on the table, a knock was heard
at the outer door, and my wife with our eld-
est son, aged ten, as a protector, wanted to
know if I were there. She had visions of my
being run over by a milk wagon, held up
by highwaymen or having had heart failure.
March 25. 1922

I departed with her, and she told me quite
a few common sense things on the way home,
that I hadn't realized while looking over
those stamps. But how did I know it was
past midnight ?
Down in the bottom of the trunk, next day,
was a very special treasure of grandma's
youth in the shape of love letters, wrapped
like a Sam Lazarus steak, one outside the
other, in two copies of a broadside entitled
"Times Portraiture Being the Carrier's Ad-
dress to the Patrons of the Salem Gazette
For the First of January. 1838." This was
written by Hawthorne for the carriers, but
published anonymously, and is now very rare.
The outer copy was beyond recall, but the
inner copy, like Sam's steak, was all to the
(good. And Jim's wife got half the proceeds
from the trunk's contents.
Books are Royal Gifts
WHEN the complete list of the wedding
presents to Princess Mary was printed
in the London Times, it was seen that approx.
imately every tenth present was a book. This
gave a happy confirmation to the growing
belief in this country that books have a far
wider importance as wedding presents than
has ever been recognized. That there is an
immense range of literature perfectly appro-
priate to gifts is shown by the titles on the list.
As one would expect, Bibles, Prayer Books,
church hymnals and even the Apocrypha.
Among the poetry there was "The Oxford
Book of English' Verse," "The Oxford Book
of Ballads," Tennyson's works, Homer's
"Odyssey," Burns's "Poems." "The Romaunt
of the Rose," "Poems" of Rupert Brooke,
"The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam" and the
poetry of Francis Thompson. Books of art
included illustrated volumes on Thomas Gains-
borough, "The Van Eycks and Their Follow-
ers," Hogarth's works. There were books of
travel such as "Travels in Italy" and "The
Channel Islands," sets of reference books and
an atlas of the world, outdoor books such as
"Beautiful Flowers and How to 'Grow Them."
"Birds One Should Know," "Gardens, Their
Form and Design," "Trees and Shrubs," stand-
ard sets such as Thackeray's novels, Kipling's
works, Browning's works, Jane Austen's
novels. There was a book called "The Destiny
of America," one on "The History of China
Porcelain" and "The History of Furniture in
England," "The History of Lace," a devo-
tronal book entitled "Daily Life" and a volume
entitled "The Book of Wedding Days."
Hon. Herbert Asquith. former prime min-
ister, presented the copy of The Rubaiyat,
Lord and Lady Tennyson gave the set of
Tennyson's works and Lord Haldane and his
daughter, the set of Jane Austin.
The Younger Generation
at the Civic Club
ESIDES directing the editorial destinies of
the Bookman to a remarkable growth, John
Farrar has been keeping his interest in other
aspects of book promotion as was shown in the
Bookman Week at Wanamaker's last fall and
again instanced in the book evening held at the
Civic Club in New York on March 8th. Mary
JOH.V FARRAR AS "THE GOSSIP"
Frank of the Library Committee of the Club
charged one book in lieu of admission ticket,
and it did not need to be a new one. Thus
many volumes were added to the Club Library.
Mr. Farrar, dressed as The Gossip, gave an
informal talk and then introduced to the plat-
form some of the writers present including
Max Bodenheim, John V. A. Weaver, Burton
Rascoe, Herbert S. Gorman and Dorothy
Spe.ire. To this group Mr. Farrar put such
questions as, "What is the younger genera-
tion?" "What do you think of book publicity
as it is done today?" "Is there literary log-
rolling?" "What do you think, of H. L.
Mencken?" These questions evoked stimulat-
ing and witty replies and started discussion in
which the audience joined.

The Publishers' Weekly
Mapping the United States
A BILL has been introduced into Congress
to provide the funds from which the
topographic mapping of the United
States shall ibe completed wfithin twenty
years. Congressman Temple, sponsor for the
Bill, believes that it would require forty million
dollars in all to complete the work. The United
States established the Geographic Survey in
1789, altho the first map and survey, that of
Chesapeake Bay, made by Captain John Smith,
was executed three hundred years ago. It was
not until 1889 that Congress made the first
specific appropriation for these surveys. Each
year there have been additions until forty-
three per cent of the continental United States
has been mapped, altho not more than thirty-
five per cent is adequately mapped. The pro-
cess of surveying a country and of represent-
ing adequately to the eye the information that
the public desires is of so special a character
and of such general interest to users and
handlers of books that the PUBLISHERS'
WEEKLY has planned a series of articles on
how maps are made. Dr. Alfred Sidney John-
son, connected with the United States map de-
partment of Rand McNally & Company has
been asked to write on how the information is
gathered and how it is visualized by the means
of line and color. These articles will appear
in April numbers.
London Book-Trade Strike
ACCORDING to the most recent English
papers, the strike in the English book-
trade which has been seriously hamper-
ing the book business there is still unsettled.
The strike began on February 18, as a result
of a dispute between the Book Trade Em-
ployers' Federation, representing the majority
of London publishers and the National Union
of Printing and Paper Workers to which
belong most of the warehousemen and packers
employed in London publishing offices. The dis-
pute was one about wages. A small reduc-
tion, especially as compared to those in other
trades, was made in the autumn of 1921. At
the beginning of 1922, a further demand for a
reduction of ten shillings per week was made
by the publishers, which they later reduced to
five shillings. The Printing and Paper Work-
ers' Union resisted even the smaller wage
reduction and suggested as a compromise a
reduction of half a crown on February I7th and
a further half crown on March 4th. A gen-
eral ballot of the Union at a London meeting
rejected this last proposal. The employers re-
plied by issuing a notice for a reduction of
five shillings, whereupon the Union called the
strike.
The Union contends that its members now
receive slightly lower wages than those paid
by printers to corresponding grades of labor
and that no reduction in the publishing trade
was admissible that had not also been agreed
upon for the printing trade.
The Employers' Federation contends that
packers and warehousemen in publishing
houses now receive a higher wage than those
in large retail distributing houses altho less
skill is required in the work of the publishing
houses. The publishers also say that tho they
made no attempt to resist the recurrent in-
creases in wages while the cost of living was
rising, they found that they were swept into
expenditures which absorbed more of the pro-
fits than the trade could endure, because de-
mands upon them always accompanied the in-
creases paid by the large magazine and news-
paper publishers. The book publishers thus
found themselves drawn into an undesirable
connection. The attitude of the Publishers'
Federation is now taken to attain two objects :
what it regards as a necessary wage cut and
the severing of an intangible but definite con-
nection.
Cheap Editions in London
REPORTS in the English book-trade papers
and London newspapers have carried very
considerable discussion on the question of the
cheap editions, and their changing prices. A
few years ago, the cheap reprint in England was
priced at about 7d. These books were made in
small form, sometimes I2mo plates trimmed
down, but more often from new type for the
smaller page. The books were printed on news-
print paper and bound very simply in cloth with
bright jackets. At the price at which these
were issued there was extremely little royalty
for the author and very little margin for the
publisher or retailer.
From the men in the trenches there came a
greatly increased demand for light fiction and
at the same time greatly increased costs of man-
ufacture. The price for such series finally set-
tled at about two shillings and sixpence, where
they were at the end of the war. With the
clearing up of war conditions more firms went
heavily into the field of supplying these re-
prints, which seemed to promise the best
chance for quick return for a publishing invest-
ment. For distribution they relied not only
on the bookstores but on the widely scattered
news stalls.
From the current reports it would seem that
so great was the enthusiasm among the pub-
lishers to produce these series that all caution
as to production quantity was thrown to the
winds with the result that the market was
flooded with supplies of these books. It began
March 25, 1922
909
to 'be found, also, that buyers of cheap series
were- discriminating as well as buyers of
higher priced 'books and that many titles that
had been manufactured did not sell at all.
Within the past few months many publishers
of these series ihave been searching for out-
lets, but have found these difficult to obtain,
as lowered prices in the retail stores did not
seem to create increased demand from a
doubting public. During the winter great
quantities of these have been thrown on the
market. One report tells of a lot of several
hundred thousand which were sold at about
3d. One publisher, writing to the London
Times, speaks of one sale of a hundred thou-
sand ibooks at three pence halfpenny and
believes that a million could be had at this
price.
A large producer has now announced that
he will make regularly a new one shilling series
instead of series at the former levels, but the
current reports do not indicate that these may
prove any more needed than the supply now
in sight.
That the whole book market has been
thrown off by this overproduction and editions
created that will hurt general book distribu-
tion this spring seems indicated by the reports.
Geoffrey Williams, President of the Publish-
ers' Association of Great Britain and Ireland,
writes : "Paper still costs about double what
it did before the war. The price of binding
is still more than twrice what it was, while
in printing there has been hardly any reduc-
tion at all, so that it is still nearly three
times the pre-war cost."
The American reader has never cared for
those small sized reprints like the familiar
product in the English market, but has pre-
ferred the I2tno book on book paper such as
is supplied here at seventy-five cents.
The Unpretentious Method
« CHOCK openings, dramatic first sentences.
^and firework beginnings in sales letters are
rapidly disappearing from the literature of
those who know," says Marketing.
"There are still houses in the United States
and Canada that think it very clever to fire
verbal howitzers at customers in direct-mail lit-
erature, in order to attract favorable attention.
"Experience has shown, thru years of experi-
ment, that people are no more anxious to be
shocked, or to be treated unconventionally in
letters, than they are to have the same treat-
ment face to face. This is the era of the quiet,
unpretentious message. Fortunate is the direct-
mail advocate who uses these tactics in his form
letters and printed material, just as he does in
his dictated letters."
Ladies' Night in Philadelphia
THE Philadelphia Booksellers' Association,
held its annual Ladies' Night on the even-
ing of March i6th, at the Bellevue-Strat-
ford Hotel. Peter Roilly, the president, in a
most optimistic speech, referred to the healthy
condition of the trade as he found it and
argued that the splendid attendance was but
another manifestation that all's well with the
book business.
The toastmaster, Charles C. Shoemaker,
with his inimitable humor, introduced the
speakers. Katherine Haviland Taylor, author
of "Cross Currents" was the first speaker.
Miss Taylor is a winsome little lady of winning
charm "a dainty bit of Haviland" and in a
naive little speech quickly endeared herself to
her hearers.
The next speaker was Annie Carroll Moore,
chief children's librarian of the New York
Library. Miss Moore spoke on the great work
the librarians were accomplishing in inculcating
in the child a love for the beautiful in litera-
ture and illustration.
The last speaker on the program was Violet
Oakley, illustrator, designer of the mural dec-
orations in the Pennsylvania State Capitol and
recipient of many gold medals and degrees.
Miss Oakley criticised the publishers' output
as the artist sees it, saying binding should
bear the relation to the book a soul bears to
the body and that both should be an artistic
whole. The "jackets," often the publisher's
pride, came in for a very severe criticism. Of
course. Miss Oakley can only view the jacket
from the artist's standpoint ; as a merchandis-
ing help, as Morris Perlmutter might say
"that's something else again.''
Eugene Herr, President of the American
Booksellers' Association, was present and in-
terestingly outlined the tentative plans of the
Washington convention. He expressed the
hope that Philadelphia would send a big dele-
gation and said that he would guarantee all
would return "much refreshed."
Trained Men Needed
IN an address before the New York School
of Commerce, Dean Joseph F. Johnson said
that in his opinion the days of the school of
hard knocks were over and that the commer-
cial and industrial leaders would be drawn
from schools of commerce. Among business
callings that he listed as those which would
he gradually lifted to a professional status he
included book publishing and merchandising
along with advertising, insurance, industrial
engineering, journalism, transportation, broker-
age.

The Publishers' Weekly
Books By Radiophone
CHILDREN'S Book Week every week is
likely to result from the arrangement
which the Kadio Corporation has just made
with Harper & Brothers whereby each week
one of the Bubble Books will be read and
sung at the Westinghouse Station in Newark.
A demonstration which was made last Sunday
proved entirely successful. Mr. Mayhew, the
originator of this delightful series for chil-
dren, himself read the verses after which the
records that were especially made for the
Bubble Books were put on a phonograph and
the music was then radiophoned.
Mr. Mayhew was heard distinctly, and the
records were said to be the 'best which have
yet been used for this purpose.
Mr. Mayhew, now better known as The Bub-
ble Man, plans to invite children to corres-
pond with him and have their questions ans-
wered by him, by radio.
It is estimated that the Bubble Books will
'be heard in from three hundred to four hun-
dred thousand homes. Such extensive publicity
for books must benefit not only this already
popular series, but it should also stimulate
childrens' interest in books generally.
The Bubble Books will be a regular weekly
feature of the radio program every Sunday
evening between 6.30 and 7.00 o'clock.
Jingle Contest
Dodd Mead & Co. announce a jingle contest.
They offer an autographed copy of George
Barr McCutcheon's new story, "Yollop" for
an acceptable limerick or jingle based on
that story. The publishers print two examples.
I.
George Barr McCutcheon's book "Yollop"
Is about an old guy with a wallop
Who captured a thug
Sent him up to the jug
Now, wasn't old Yollop the trollop!
II.
Sing a song of Sing Sing
The home of lucky guys
Twenty years or life term
Is nothing to despise.
Baseball games or movies
The day is one sweet song
Free board, free clothes, free everything
Be wise, old dear, Go wrong!
A contributor adds the following to Walter
Hart Blumenthal's "Culled From an Auction
Catalog."
"Behold the Woman." In a pink urapper.
New Book Posters
HPHE Religious Book Week poster in six
* colors with its lettering "Good Books Are
Life Teachers" has gone out in large quantity.
It has also 'been reprinted in post-card size in
black and white with part of the back space
used for quotation from Dr. Barton's com-
ment on the Religious Book Week idea. These
cards would be especially appropriate for
booksellers, libraries or others to use in oon~
nection with Book Week promotion and can
be bought from the headquarters at 334 Fifth
Avenue at the lo'w price of $i per 100.
The four color poster by Mr. Norstad with
the lettering "Back to Nature Books" is to be
the feature of April promotion. This poster is
full of life and human interest and will prove,
perhaps, the most attractive poster this year.
In the post-card size it has been printed in two
colors, red and green with the back blank. It
can be purchased for $1.35 per 100 from the
Committee. It will prove an ideal method of
listing] nature books for a dealer to send out
to his customers.

Obituary
HENRY B. SMITH
HENRY B. SMITH, who has made the Coast
trip for Thomas Nelson & Sons for the past
twenty years, died at his home in Plainfie'.d,
N. J., on March I3th. He had been in pre-
carious health for more than a year, but his
death came unexpectedly. He was born among
books, as it were, having been taken into his
father's store as soon as he left school. His
father, Daniel Smith, in 1825, established him-
self in the book business, which is still con-
ducted by Henry B. Smith's brother, N. S.
Smith — 'the oldest business house in and about
Newburgh. Ambitious to work in a larger
field," Henry came to New York City and ob-
tained a position with Baker, Pratt & Co.. the
predecessors of Baker & Taylor Co. He re-
mained only a short time with them, leaving to
take) charge of the sales department of George
Routledge & Sons. Aifter several years' service
in that position, owing to the illness of one of
the firm's travelers, he took his place on the
road and continued until 1894, when he joined
the traveling force of Thomas Nelson & Sons.
Mr. Smith, tho quiet and reserved in manner,
won many friends on his circuit, who loved and
honored him for his ihonesty, courtesy and other
gracious characteristics.
Communications
AMERICAN BOOKS IN PARIS
Editor, PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY:
The letter from Alfred A. Knopf printed
in the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY, August 20. and
particularly his statement that "Of fifteen
French publishers he found only four who
could speak English" was of great interest
to me because at that time I expected to be-
come director of the Amercan Library in
Paris. I have now been here long enough to
feel that there is more to be sarid on the sub-
ject. Undoubtedly Mr. Knopf will agree
with me.
In the first place French publishers and
booksellers are organized to meet the needs
of the French people, and this is a need pri-
marily for borks in the French language, and
books about French affairs. Because, how-
ever, of the growth of a large English-speak-
ing colony in Paris there have developed with-
in the last generation or two several well-
known houses which have made a specialty of
books in the English language, Brentano's,
Galignani's and Smith's. And since the war
there has developed also a new interest among
French readers in American thought, institu-
tions, and public 'affairs.
This is not, however, sufficient to warrant
every 'bookseller in stocking American books,
any more than every American bookseller is
warranted in stocking French books. But it
does warrant greater efforts on the part of
"those who are now specializing in this branch
of service, particularly ii America is to be
known by its best instead of by its worst as
Mr. Knopf fears it is at present. It is with a
view to promoting the efforts of publishers
to secure a better distribution of American
books in France and other countries of Europe
that the Association of American book pub-
lishers has asked me to serve as its European
representative. And it is with this in view
that I am making every effort to secure more
adequate discussion of American books in the
reviews and journals. French and English
published here in Paris Not every French-
man can speak English, but every Frenchman
of intelligence, I believe would like to "be able
to read it.
Very truly yours.

Rare Books, Autographs and Prints
RARE Americana including pamphlets on
the French and Indian War, the embargo
and the War of 1812, Shakers, Mormons,
Free Masonry, the Early West, and California
mining properties will be sold by the Hartman
Auction Company, at Perth Amboy, N. J.,
April i.
At the Ehrich Galleries Walter Tuttle is
holding an exhibition of dry points, most of
them portraits of important personages con-
nected with the war. Twenty-two, done from
life, are of the chief members of the recent
Conference on the Limitation of Armament at
Washington. •
The new book by Jane Austen promised next
month will bear the title "Love and Friend-
ship" a short novel written in the author's
youth and is now first published from the
original manuscript. Miniatures from the
brush of Cassandra Austen have been repro-
duced as end papers and a page of the original
manuscript appears in facsimile. It is reported
that American collectors are already alive to
the opportunity.
James F. Drake, rare book dealer, has pur-
chased the Gilbert Collection, the library of a
Massachusetts collector. The collection is of
moderate siize but rich in rarities of all periods
generally in the finest condition. For instance
here are the Four Folios of Shakespeare and
first editions of other Elizabethan dramatists ;
the first issue of the first edition of Spenser's
"Faerie Queene;" first editions of -Keats,
Shelley, Byron and Scott; the novels of Dick-
ens and Thackeray in parts including "The
Pickwick Papers" and "Vanity Fair" ; the rare
first edition of Fitzgerald's translation of the
"Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam;" and many
choice first editions of English and American
authors of the last century. It was just the
kind of library that Mr. Drake could handle
to the best advantage and he has already sold
many of the rarer lots.
The exhibition of prints in the display of
native graphic arts at the American Academy
of Arts and Letters contains many fine ex-
amples of leading American wood engravers,
living and dead. Timothy Cole, and Childe
Hassam and Joseph Pennell who constitute
the committee responsible for the graphic arts
show, has added,1 a few words on wood engrav-
ing to the catalog. Tn what he calls the pres-
ent moribund condition of reproductive wood
engraving, he mentions "Watt, Evans and my-
self" as three workers "who manage yet to be
warmed by the fire of the box wood tree." In
passing he notes that it was he himself who
discovered the "peculiar value of Japanese tis-
sue for proving," names "the one place in New
York where box wood 'is made up into blocks
for engravers: J. Johnson, 125 Fulton Street,
third flight up," and recommends "Pears face
powder" for dusting white into the cut lines
before retouching.
The new O. Henry volume "Letters to
Lithbpolis" with nine short letters and a long
introduction by Mabel Wagnalls, limited to
427 copies, printed in a thin, handsome octavo,
is priced at $10 doubtless on the theory that O.
Henry collectors must have it. But it is not
always safe to take too much for granted; col-
lectors do not always come up to expectations.
There have been several instances recently
when publishers have been disappointed partly
because they overestimated the spending pro-
pensities of book buyers. The English rare
book trade after the war thought that they had
an easy job to put it over on the "rich and ig-
norant American collectors," and some of these
greedy booksellers have learned at the ex-
pense of considerable business that American
collectors after all are not "easy marks." They
are doubtless good sports in open competition
but they are frequently very close and very
calculating when it comes to private sales or
the purchase even of limited editions.
A singular relic was sold last week at the
Silo Galleries. It was a copy of the New
Testament bound in black cloth and auto-
graphed by Charles J. Guiteau who assassinated
President Garficld. It was one of the numbers
in a sale of the property of the late Frank O.
Probst, formerly manager of the Hollenden
House in Cleveland. With the book was in-
cluded an affidavit telling how it came into
his possession. In 1881 he was room clerk in
the Palmer House, Chicago. Early that sum-
mer a man came to the hotel and engaged a
room from which he disappeared shortly after,
leaving his belongings which the room clerk
put away, thinking that he might return. On
July 2 the news came that the President had
been assassinated and the name of the assassin
seeming familiar to Probst he examined the
property left by the deserting guest of the
Palmer House and in the book found the auto-
graph of Guiteau.
The last half of last week was a busy period
at the American Art Galleries. On March 15
and 16 first editions, library sets and an ex-
tensive collection of Cruikshankiana formed
by the late John P. Woodbury of Boston was
The Publishers' Weekly
sold, the 959 lots bringing $11,277. Ireland's
"Life of Napoleon Bonaparte," 4 vols., with
colored plates by George Craikshank, con-
temporary calf, London, 1823-28, first edition
of the Cumberland issue, sold for $170;
Grimm's "German Popular Stories," 2 vols.,
with Cruikshank etchings, levant by Reviere.
London, 1826, second is'sue of the first edition,
$90; Westmacott's "Tihe English Spy," 2
vols., contemporary calf, London, 1825-26, fine
large copy of the first edition, $180. The
Cntiksihank colleqtion was generally not in
the condition or the rarer items did not pos-
sess the points which discriminating collectors
demand, and, in consequence, prices were low.
On March 17 rare Americana, including books,
manuscripts, views, maps and portraits, mainly
relating to California and the West, the prop-
erty of John Mack, of Albany; H. R. Wagner,
of Berkeley, Cal., and other consignees, were
sold, realizing $5,539* An original crayon por-
trait by Eastman Johnson, of Dolly Madison,
wife of President Madison, dated March,
1846, went to E. F. Bonaventure for $305. A
complete set of Hutching's Illustrated. Cali-
fornia Magazine July, 1856, to June, 1861, a
California item of great rarity, was bought by
Ernest Dressel North for $230. An engraved
portrait by Doolittle, of President John Adams
was sold to Robert Friedenberg for $115. On
March 17 and 18 Civil War books, autographs,
views, correspondence of Confederate officers,
views of American cities and the Charles B.
Reed collection of Lincolniana was sold. The
Lincolndana brought $1,235.50 and the entire
sale $2,386. There was very little in the two
sessions that was rare, and many books went
for low prices. There are bound to be many
bargains in the less important sales and book-
lovers and dealers, who care for the more
ordinary books, will find it worth while to
keep a careful watch of them.

INVESTIGATION by The Business Survey
A of The Chicago Tribune has shown that the
present method of selling books is due for revi-
sion; that books can be sold as other manufac-
tured commodities are sold.
CONSIDER, for instance, the question of
distribution. There are less than a hundred
places in Chicago where you can buy books, yet
there are over seven thousand consumer outlets
for a well advertised food product. The manu-
facturer of the food product sells in quantities;
he has learned that adequate distribution,
followed and maintained by consistent, con-
tinuous advertising in efficient media is pre-
requisite to the sale of his product. The average
book publisher scatters his wares upon a market
that has not been properly prepared for their
reception, and "opes everything will come out all
right!' But it hasn't been done, so it can't
be done !
The Business Survey ef The Chicago Tribune
will be glad to discuss with any publisher its
proposals for the improvement of
book advertising.
