;BCHOOIJNO OP THHfMMIORANT. By

f Of 13,000,000 immigrants in this
country in 1910 who were more than
v a rs iss e ii.
years ot age j.uuu.wu oi mem
ould not speak the English lan
guage. Ten, million could not speak
. .hnglisn when they came to tnis
. : country. Only -760,000 of them were
of the age where they were subject
to the compulsory school laws, a
census in 1916 would undoubtedly
have shown even more startling fig
ures. Knowledge of these facts at
the time of our entry into the world
war, occasioned uneasiness in some
quarters and resulted in legislation
in many of the states.
'n This book by Mr. Thompson, su
7ierintendent of nublic schools, Bos
ton, is the first of U studies of
i Americanization aimed to establish
a common riewooint, social, political
"and itdnitrial, between native
Americans and the immigrant popu
lation, in the interest of national
unity. Mr. Thompson does licit be
lieve that -the night school is more
" 'than scratching the surface. He
; takes up the different organizations
which are working to Americanize
the immigrant and outlines t their
, work. A summary of legislation is
, also Riven, including comment on the
recent Nebraska laws. One section
deals with methods of teaching Eng
lish, "An instructive book for any

-m fry company, New Tork .
f4j "1$ it going to be another fantas
: tie. imnrbhable tale?" the reader is
inclined to ask himself as he peruses
-the first pages of this book. Will :t
even go beyond those stories in
which one person so easily assumes
the life of another and masquerades
successfully? Is it going to imply
the possibility that the souls of two
woman can exchange bodies? We
are inclined to revolt at this sugges
tion. "And then the author throws
m a hint that possibly we are on the
wrong track that the woman' who
regains consciousness after an auto
mobile accident and, loking in the
mirror, sees the face of the one
whom she thought wis in the other I
car, nas a mtterent proDiem to wont
out.,-
; And a difficult problem it proves.
An unknown house and servant, an
unknown man who she gathers is
her husband, a se. ies of questionable
and unpleasant incidents in the past
to overcome, a fear that her secret
will be discovered and. that she will
be deemed insane! . v
How the author haiSvorked out
this problem, how she has drawn ;a
good lesson here and there from the
unique position in which she has
placed Elsie and her husband, and
how she points out where both had
erred in their past life, makes this in
teresting story. The first impression
of the reader disappears and he fol-

The theme is one, on the other

well to reader interest We rebel
at the idea of a score of labor lead
ers having the power, and being on

kaiserand Hindenburg, and received
from the German socialists, are the
basis of their ultimatum to the prime

the real interest of their country at

Senor EstanoL former secretary of
the interior, as well as secretary of
public education in Mexico, declares
in this book that the Carranza Con
stitution, and the Carranza govern
ment is bolshevik "because tley are
the constitution and government of
a'caste the armed caste of , the
lowest social order without any na
tional constructive inspiration, dom
inated by an appetite and a thirst
for riches for its own members, and
by a hatred or contempt for all
others." He declares that those at
preseht at the head. of the govern
ment are the men who-battled with
Carranza in 1913, and who drew up
the constitution of 1917, which is
still in force. He goes into detail
to prove his point that this consti
tution is spurious and bolshevik.
