“There seems to be one thing overlooked. In speaking of human relations, the author seems to have in mind kindliness, friendliness, charitableness of which we have none too much. She does not mean anything as fundamental as the economic relationship of classes to one another, to the soil and natural resources, to the powers of government. She reminds me pathetically of the reformers who hoped to save the institution of slavery by inducing slave holders to treat their slaves and mules in a more kindly way. ” B. C. G.

FELLOWES, EDMUND HORACE, ed. English madrigal verse, 1588–1632. (Oxford English texts)
*$6.25 Oxford 821:04
20–17023
“This is a reprint of the known words of Elizabethan songs, arranged under their composers and, among these, under the particular type of song, with the names of the poets in the few cases where they are known. In all of these songs both words and voice part were paramount. For if, as in the first half of the book, they were madrigals (for from three to six voices), each voice was sovran in turn, and each vied with the other in the amount of meaning it could impress on the words. If, as in the second half, they were solos or duets, then they had the sketchy accompaniment of the lute, or the support of veiled and velvety-toned viols. The first are necessarily short, for the madrigal form required much repetition of words; pithy, for if a voice is only to be heard at intervals it should have something terse to say; and conventional, for you cannot put intimate sentiments into the mouths of half a dozen different people in succession. The second are more elaborate. They are all true lyrics in that they take one point and press it home.” The Times [London] Lit Sup
“To all who love the lyric, English madrigal verse will be a genuine delight. Its careful editing makes the musical construction quite clear, and the material is indeed a treasury of quaint verse. ” C. K. H.

FENWICK, CHARLES GHEQUIER. Political systems in transition; war-time and after. *$3 Century 342
20–20220
The book is one of the Century New world series of which W. F. Willoughby is general editor. Since the war, the author holds, the question of the organization of the state and the scope of the functions it is to perform has become once more an open one, for the
war has made it clear that there are some serious defects in the machinery of government that call for radical amendments to our constitutional system. The relative strength and weakness of the several political systems and the probable line of future reconstruction, form the subject of the present study. Contents: Part 1, Political ideals and demands of war; War a test of democratic government; The constitutions of the great nations on the eve of the great war; Part 2, Changes brought about by the war in the political institutions of European countries; Countries with autocratic governments; Countries with democratic governments; Part 3, Changes in the political institutions of the United States; The war and the constitution; War powers of the president; Emergency legislation adopted by Congress; Changes in the organization of the government; The separate state governments: new legislation and new administrative activities; Part 4, Problems of reconstruction in the United States raised by the war; New ideals of democracy; The program of political reconstruction; The program of international reconstruction; Index.
“An excellent account of the shake-up in governments produced by the war, full of material which must be included in any adequate history of it.” E. N.
“The volume is a valuable compendium of war measures in the belligerent nations and of the political problems which the war has left.”
“He writes with eminent fairness, and writes only to inform. He achieves his aim strikingly. Sometimes he falls into the error of taking a phrase at its face value. Since even small things are important in a work of this kind. Professor Fenwick should be more careful about his dates.”

The nine short stories of this collection are: The maternal feminine; April 25th, as usual; Old lady Mandle; You’ve got to be selfish; Long distance; Un morso doo pang; One hundred per cent; Farmer in the dell; The dancing girls. They are stories of life as it is lived in Chippewa or Winnebago, Wisconsin, or on South Park avenue, Chicago. Some are stories of war time. One is an Emma McChesney story. They are reprinted from the Ladies’ Home Journal, Metropolitan, Colliers, and other magazines.

A three-act play in which a university professor gives up his $1200 a year position in the university to earn $30 a day in a mill. He immediately becomes popular as a labor leader and lecturer and is in demand all over the United States, but it is only when he is offered a salary of $5000 a week in the movies that the magnate who owns the university as well as the mill is moved to consider the question of an adequate salary for a professor.

“As a vehicle for amusement ‘$1200 a year ’ is both ingenious and satisfying. Its characters are human, its situations vivid.

Have not the authors exaggerated the affluence of mill labor to crown their dramatic purpose?”

FIELDING, WILLIAM JOHN. Sanity in sex.
*$1.75 (3c) Dodd 176
20–10067
The past few years have seen a remarkable change in the public attitude toward sex. The ban of secrecy has been largely removed and the need for rational sex education is generally recognized. The author’s purpose in this book has been “to subject the social processes responsible for these changes to a thorough analysis, classifying all the important factors and tendencies involved, and to give as concise and accurate an account as possible of this historic period of the sex-educational movement.” (Introd.) Subjects covered
include: the government’s campaign of sex-education, sex-education in the army, venereal disease, sex hygiene in industry, sex education in the public schools, the relation of sex knowledge to marriage, sex ignorance and divorce, birth control, and psycho-analysis, and the final chapter discusses economic sufficiency as a basis of sex hygiene. There is a classified bibliography of seventeen pages, followed by an index.

“How the American Red cross met the American army in Great Britain, the gateway to France.” (Sub-title) The work of the Red cross commission in Great Britain was almost wholly with passing troops, on the way to the front or returning, and the aim of the author has been to bring out those features of the service which distinguished it from that of other commissions. Among the chapters are: A call through the storm; When the commission was born; Where a million men went by; The incoming legions at Liverpool; Here and there in Britain; The bluejackets of Cardiff and Plymouth; With the army to Archangel; The unbreakable link with “home.”
“Even now, books of the war continue to be written, and Mr Fife’s is among the distinctly lesser lights of the contest. He writes in a business-like but boresome monotone.”

“The opening story of the book is a story of heroism almost unbelievable, yet intense in its realism, pathos and altruism. Great as is the Otranto story, it but serves to fix the attention on what is to come and so onward to the ‘valedictory’ is read a succession of just such tales.” E. J. C.

FINDLAY, JOSEPH JOHN. Introduction to sociology, for social workers and general readers. (Publications of the University of Manchester) il *$2 Longmans 301
“The central theme of sociology, as conceived by Professor Findlay and lucidly expounded in this excellent introduction to a comparatively new, extremely comprehensive, but somewhat elusive science, is ‘the definition of social groups, their classification and their relations to each other.’ The treatment is systematic, though some problems of considerable importance, such as the institution of land tenure, have had to be omitted. The first five chapters are devoted to principles. The second part relates to types of social grouping, such as family, state, religion, and occupation. In the third part, which is concerned with organization, the positions of the leader, the official, and the representative, are discussed: and there is an analysis of the instinct of loyalty.” Ath

A critical and biographical study of Jane Austen, falling into three parts: The novelist; The realist; The woman. Part 1 is a searching and unsparing analysis of the six novels, with particular reference to plot. Part 2 is a more brief and general treatment of the characters. Part 3, the biographical section, is a study of Miss Austen’s personality as revealed in her letters and reflected in the novels.
