The author contends against the tendency of the era apparent in the taking of refuge in vague forms of statement, the shrinking from close examination of the puzzling and obscure, and the denial of the existence of anything which makes no appeal to organs of sense—no ready response to laboratory experiment.

FORTY YEARS OF IT
By Brand Whitlock
Formerly Mayor of Toledo, Now Minister to Belgium
Mr. Whitlock’s volume is in a sense a history of the progress of democracy in the Middle West. His reminiscences are of such men as Governor Altgeld, Tom Johnson, “Golden Rule” Jones. In the telling of these men, their ideas and ideals, and of himself as the continuator of their work, he illuminates that spirit which makes for democracy. Few reminiscences have had the vigor, optimism, and personal appeal of Mr. Whitlock’s pages.
