With occasional Vermont verse by SARAH N. CLEGHORN. "No writer since Lowell has interpreted the rural Yankee more faithfully."--_Review of Reviews._ THE REAL MOTIVE Unlike "Hillsboro People," this collection of stories has many backgrounds, but it is unified by the underlying humanity which unites all the characters. UNDERSTOOD BETSY Illustrated by ADA C. WILLIAMSON. "Children will read it eagerly for the story of a very real little girl. Parents will find it worth a whole shelf of books on child training. Teachers will get more than one pointer from its pages, and anyone with a grain of humor can't afford to miss it."--_Publishers' Weekly._ BY SIMEON STRUNSKY PROFESSOR LATIMER'S PROGRESS The "sentimental journey" of a middle-aged American scholar upon whose soul the war has come down heavily, and who seeks a cure--and an answer--in a walking trip up-State. "The war has produced no other book like 'Professor Latimer's Progress,' with its sanative masculine blend of deep feeling, fluid intelligence, and heart-easing mirth, its people a joyous company. It is a spiritual adventure, the adventure of the American soul in search of a new foothold in a tottering world. We have so many books of documents, of animus, or argument; what a refreshment to fall in, for once in a way, with a book of that quiet creative humor whose 'other name' is wisdom."--_The Nation._ LITTLE JOURNEYS TOWARDS PARIS (1914-1918) By W. HOHENZOLLERN, translated and adapted for unteutored minds by SIMEON STRUNSKY. "If only the Germans could be supplied with translations of this exquisite satire they would die laughing at the grisly joke on themselves. Not only funny, it is a final reductio ad absurdum of the Hun philosophy."--_Chicago Tribune._ BELSHAZZAR COURT Or Village Life in New York City Graceful essays about the average citizen in his apartment house, in the street, at the theater, the baseball park, with his children, etc. BY MARGARET WIDDEMER _NOVELS_ THE WISHING-RING MAN A romance of a New England summer colony. "Margaret Widdemer, who says she likes happy stories, proves it by writing them for other people to read.... The book is full of charm, amusing incident, and gay conversation; and the interest in the situation holds to the last half page."--_N.Y. Evening Post._ YOU'RE ONLY YOUNG ONCE Miss Widdemer's new novel is the story of youth's romance as it came to the five girls and three boys of a happy American family. _POETRY_ FACTORIES, AND OTHER POEMS Second printing. "An art which speaks ever so eloquently for itself.... Splendid effort both in thought and execution, and ranks with the cry of the children as voiced by Mrs. Browning."--_San Francisco Chronicle._
