Concluding, he raid: '.It was to determine whether man had progressed far enough on the road to . his destiny, whether ckvUlxat.on had reached that advanced ground where s government dedicated to human liberty and founded upon the rights of man could endure. There are. -timid souls to day who doubt . the " people'a ability to govern themselves and who, unmindful of the lessons of this great conflict, ate demanding a government 'too strong for tha complete liberty of Ua people.' ' Mentions Present War. In speaking of the European conflict. he said:- "Individual neutrality Is Im possible. The activities of the human j mind, the passions of the human heart cannot be dctroyed at the word of com- I mand. But such activity, such passions. when crystallised Into words and con duct, must be tempered by national ob ligations so as to be In harmony , with the highest Ideals of neutrality. I criti cise no man for loving bis native land; It would not promise well for his cltlsen- hlD in the land of his adoption If he Old not love the land of his birth.

Neither do I condemn .thec: go, and sin no more." This text inspired the writing of ; David Graham Phillips' greatest novel, 1 his Itprw if Liiiii Uqv Fall asid Jilse" if'. DAVID HARS.PHILLO Dr. CHARLES H. PARKHMRST, tho famous clergyman, says: i "This great novel, hav'nq ra It In manuscript, Its spirit and purpose have not passed from my memory. . ... ... "The heroine is depicted as an llltoltlmate child, and the purpose ol the fiction Is to show the blight that attaches to Inntr .ent Vltlmacy. " - .,... , . . . . ... . . . . "The treatment veccrded her by her kindred, who by ordination of nature ought to have protected and cherished her, illustrates In a yraphio way the vicious tendency Imminent in human nature to think the worst of people rathr than the best. .!'.'.. . , ' ' ' . ' . ... 11 It Is one of those fictions that has a meaning, the only kind of fiction that moral and Intelli gent poople have any r'ght to spend 'Selr time over or give their thought to." To this most startling Amor lean novel ever written, David Graham Philips devoted six years of his life. Today, four years after his death by assassination, this, his greatest work is given to the, public in Hearst's , Magazine. ' ; ' L 1 ' A million fathers and rhothers'will sec this story, and read the lessons in it. - -. . v .Deeply they yill sympathize with the child unhappily born, and rejoice that they can protect as she was not protected, those within their care. , - ' ; In Susan Lenox. David Graham Phillips shows with all of his . courage and power the story of life as it is. A girl beautiful,' intelligent, unhappily born, chrsed with the cruel stigma of illegitimacy, fiehts against the world. Phillips tells of her journeys down the hill, the cruel selfishness of relations; pushing their own daughter ahead of her. 1 The marriage forced upon an inexperienced child. ' v The horrible revelations of what false marriage really is. The curse of a union without love on the woman's part, with out refinement or kindness on the part of the husband. . . The flight of the girl hating immoral marriage more than any risk in life. - v Then the story that the public will read with breathless interest, the hard struggle, against hunger, cold, anxiety, and the last, worse dangerBthat threatens every helpless woman. - &e It is indeed as Dr. Parkhurst says, fiction "that has a meaning, the ONLY KIND OF FICTION THAT MORAL INTELLI GENT PEOPLE SHOULD READ." With his extraordinary power fully developed, David Graham Phillips tells of the fall that could not be avoided, and then of the spirit conquering, of the rise of the soul, the end of a struggle. The story of Susan Lenox, is th story of cruelty inflicted by cold civilization upon helpless girls; , It is a story of beauty as "well as bt horror. ' It is a lesson in powerful literary work, a lesson of true moral teaching. . . . Many a man who reads it, many, a man who feels within himself part of the guilt that pushed Susan Lenox down the road, will feel as those men felt in the ancient days, when "Jesus atooped down, and with his finger wrote upon the ground, ? though he heard them not." Many realizing in Phillips' powerful, vivid teaching, how de fenceless is woman cur6edby msn's brutality will wish that they might slink away from their"bwn past, as "they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last." ' V No story but this wonderful narrative of the fall and the rise of a beautiful, unhappy spirit, will ;c discussed in this country, as long as the reading of the story lasts. : First, A bad start, illegitimately y'J "--f -.-fVi ,' --r-i ' ' .'
