PAPER SHORTAGE AND BETTER BOOKS Just as die movies, often deplored by showmwi,
have helped thecimse of jneritnriouH theatrical wawa t^ 1arg6lyidni«g off tlw "luffey tdiowu," 80 the, scarcity of white paper, serious as it is to publishers in particular, has its<:ompensations for the public. There will be fewer books, but better. Already, it is estimated there has been a decrease .0140 per centinJhe rmmher of' books an-nounced for publication this fall, as compared with the same period in 1912. And it may confidently be assumed that as the quajiti^ decreases, the quality increases.
Even a cursory analysis of the product to be expected is interesting. The Publisher's Weekly fauUffya thai mannBrript.g miiat hff nf hf t ter fhar-
acter to pass the publishers' "readers, ' now that paper is 10 cents the pound; the New York Eve-ning Post finds that shorirfltorica are ohbrtcr and more dramatic, more inclined to the "punch" style, because publishers can't spare p^}er oA wlilch aulhois taay groff diffuoiyc; and t^e Christ
HBm^ienco-Motutor is convinced- that poetry is markedly on the increase. ..This kist, however, is not attributid^e to the paper shortage, but to the fact that the world's one, great theme today letKb itself to poetic trei^iart. It i& predicted, too, that the year's output of war books will he less generally devoted to descriptive purposes. As the Momtor puts it, "the writers who have seen Europe are peering into the future and are facing the tasks of reconstnietida" This1i$i4>-.pficable to American ecoOotmsts as vtell, wbo may be counted on to speculate and predict c<Hicera ing omditions in tfapis country after tbe war, i< or the genarsl-reader,jheref<»rei the otitilook is hopeful; fiction will be nwre worth while, ami;Berioias

COMMISSION WAS WELL SELECTED General Goethals, while successfully superin
tending the execution of man's greatest engineering feat, was able always to keep in mind the point of view and the needs of the workers. More than once his sympathy and wisdom prevented industrial disturixance at Panama. He comes to his new task with the best possible training. His associates on the eight-hour board also call for approval G«oi:ge Rublee, Federal Trade Commissioner, has the honor of having invented the trade board idea. Mr. Rublee was a leading Progressive in 1912, bat when President Wilson aHnpt/H thft pl n of supplying intelligent national aid to business, he was called on to do the necessary organization.

ON THE TRAIL OF POUO Pending formal announcement from the au
thorities of the Johns Hopkins hospital, an interested public will do well to avoid hasty conclusions from those "it-is-understood" reports spread broadcast by oiie of the press bureaux. When the hospital has its results verified and estab-lished, it will promptly and conservatively state them to the country; meantime, its patholoj^ts can only be embarrassed by the hasty publication of half-truths.
As far as we have been able to gatheit, the re-sults at tbe Jtio ians have thus far earned the' investigators only to a new fieW of inquiry. FoV lowing Its usual rule, the hospital has had ftutop-sies p6iformed on as many as possible of the victims nit Infuitile paralyss. In every instance mackei disturbaiKe of tte lowar intaitine lias been noted, along with the now-famihar lesaonfi elsewhere. These findings naturally suggest infection by mouth, in somewhat the same maimer as with typhoid f evefr. But whether the mouth-infection is due to food, drink, carekass habltB or insect carriers^ is yet to be determined. Nor JBhould too niuch importance be attached to the report that the'disease) has been produced in a raMbit at John! H< itifai|. Rabbits have been

It is astcmisMngliow httle attentiCNa i i ^ ents pay to the speech of their children. A harsh voice, a loud and annoying voice, little mannerisms of speech that are disagreeable, are a great handicw to youi^ peop^ in making tiieir way in the wpnd; and uie time to correct these is in childhood. But how many paresis do you know who watch tiiese defects in their childi«n and ^tieirtfytaidperBiste&tlystrive to correct them?

A "highbrow" is too often viewed as a mere theorist, who without practical knowlet^ of life undertakes to reform conditions that are palpably undedrable. It is the- favorite expresswn of the professional politician, seekii« to belittle the activities of men who have read deeply and have formed ideas of how government should be organized andxonducted.- Often these student reformer are impractical."

Rev. J. Royal Cooke filled his regular appointment here Sunday morning. His subject was Christian Fellow^ship, founded on Rev-elations 22:21. The s u b j e c t seemed especially appropriate as it was the day for the observance of the Lord's Supper. Mr. Cooke spoke beautifully and forcefully of the necessity of true fellowship with Christ"and Hi» followers as a preparation for oar fitness to eome to His table. The bread and wine were nothing in 'themselves, 6nly symbols of the sacrifice Christ bad made for oa and of our felbwship with Him.
He said the Bible was a history and~a reveTatioh. It Ts tTie'most

But the Kingdom of God, as taught by revelation, is eternal. These bodies of ours are so tainted with sin as to cause a continued warfare between the flesh and the spirit and Ottf only salBly lies in tiue fellow-" ship with Christ.
