FROM BELL’S LIST.
War and Women. By Mrs. ST. CLAIR STOBART, Founder of the Women’s Convoy
Corps. With an Introduction by VISCOUNT ESHER, G.C.B. Crown 8vo. with
numerous illustrations. 3_s._ 6_d._ net.
The sending of a Women’s Convoy Corps to the Balkans was the
result of Mrs. Stobart’s keen desire to demonstrate the ability
of women to render signal service under war conditions and
without the direction and assistance of men. This record of
their achievements, therefore, provides a strong vindication
of the claims of women to inclusion in the Territorial Defence
Scheme.
Round About a Pound a Week. By Mrs. PEMBER REEVES. Crown 8vo. 2_s._
6_d._ net.
Mrs. Pember Reeves is not a sentimentalist, and her book is a
clear, straightforward examination of what is meant by life
on one pound a week. She has been able to win the confidence
of the working mothers of Lambeth, whose lives are spent in
the task of making both ends meet when at one end is a growing
family and at the other an income of 50_l._ a year. The result
is an array of evidence which can lead to but one conclusion:
that a healthy family of four children _cannot_ be reared in
decent surroundings on ‘round about a pound a week.’
The Cosmic Procession; or, the Feminine Principle in Evolution. By Mrs.
FRANCES SIDNEY, Author of ‘The Awakening of Women,’ &c. Post 8vo. 2_s._
6_d._ net.
The Future of the Theatre. By JOHN PALMER, Dramatic Critic to the
_Saturday Review_. Crown 8vo. 2_s._ 6_d._ net.
A brilliantly-written forecast of dramatic history. Critics,
producers, long runs, the Lord Chamberlain, and the speculative
manager will all disappear, and the final picture of an English
theatre, national and redeemed, is finely drawn in passages of
eloquence and sincerity.
