BY THE SAME AUTHOR

DEMOCRACY AND SOCIAL ETHICS

By JANE ADDAMS, Hull-House, Chicago. 9 + 281 pages, 12 mo., cloth, leather back, $1.25 net. Citizen’s Library.

“Miss Addams is clear. She has not been precipitate in the preparation of her book. She has reconsidered, corrected, and recorrected it, spoken with temperance and courtesy.... As gentle, as patient, as sincere, and as astute as Jane Addams herself is the philosophy set forth in these pages.... The processes of Miss Addams’ thought are interesting to thousands. The sense that none of us is living up to the best idea of democracy is upon each of us.... Miss Addams is bound to receive a respectful hearing. As a leader who ever prays to lead aright, a sociologist who is willing to test her theories in a practical and personal way, a theorist who is not ashamed to own when she has been mistaken, a friend who will remain true to her friend no matter what may arise, and a person of leisure and power, who has the civic interest at heart, she has come to be prized as one of the chief of citizens.”—Chicago Tribune.

“Its pages are remarkably—we were about to say refreshingly—free from the customary academic limitations.... In fact, are the result of actual experience in hand to hand contact with social problems.... No more truthful description, for example, of the political ‘boss’ as he thrives to-day in our great cities has ever been written than is contained in Miss Addams’ chapter on ‘Political Reform.’ The whole chapter will be accepted as a realistic picture of conditions as they are to-day in the city of Chicago. The same thing may be said of the other chapters of the book in regard to their presentation of social and economic facts.”—Review of Reviews.

“Too much emphasis cannot be laid upon the efficiency and inspiration afforded by these essays. ‘Charitable Effort,’ ‘Filial Affections,’ ‘Household Adjustment,’ ‘Industrial Amelioration,’ ‘Educational Methods,’ ‘Political Reform,’ are the topics treated in a masterly and revolutionary style. Miss Addams shatters some of our most cherished illusions upon the relations which should exist between the helper and the helped, between parent and child, mistress and maid, the members of a family, between the ‘boss’ and the community. She takes the subject entirely out of the realms of sentimentality, puts it upon a solid moral basis, and by a close and logical train of reasoning brings her conclusions home to the conscience and common sense of every member of the social structure. The book is startling, stimulating and intelligent.”—Philadelphia Ledger.

The Arbiter in Council

A discussion of peace and war, in which take part, each from his own viewpoint, a lawyer “with a conscience,” a stock broker, a learned professor of history, a journalist, a retired admiral, an army officer, and two clergymen of widely differing forms of church government. The Arbiter is a veteran student of politics, a disciple of John Bright.

“As a summary of all that is to be said on the subject, thrown into readable form, the book is well done; ... almost no topic is left untouched.”—Nation.

“What strikes one in reading this book even more than its readableness, is the wide range of its information.... The points of view offered are many and diversified.... No argument worth using is left unused.”—The Evening Mail.

“The subjects discussed include the causes and consequences of war; modern warfare; private war and the duel; perpetual peace or the federation of the world; arbitration, the political economy of war, and Christianity and war. It is a notable book, or will become one as it is widely read.”—Editorial in The Boston Herald.

“The Arbiter’s friends are drawn from several ranks in life, and they bring to the symposium wide reading in the literature of the subject, logical powers and a persuasive manner of speaking. ‘The Arbiter in Council’ may be regarded as a conspectus of the best thought on warfare, especially in relation to the topic of universal peace.”—Philadelphia Press.

On many of the subjects touched upon in Miss Addams’s “The Newer Ideals of Peace” interesting material may be found in the volumes named below:—

ON CITY GOVERNMENT

The American City

By DELOS F. WILCOX, Ph. D.

“In the ‘American City’ Dr. Wilcox ... has written a book that every thoughtful citizen should read. The problems of the street, the tenement, public utilities, civic education, the three deadly vices, municipal revenue and municipal debt, with all their related and subsidiary problems, are clearly and fully considered.”—Pittsburgh Gazette.

6 + 423 pages, 12 mo., cloth, leather back, $1.25 net. Citizen’s Library.

ON THE LABOR PROBLEM

Labor Problems

By THOMAS SEWALL ADAMS, Ph. D., Assistant Professor of Political Economy, and HELEN L. SUMNER, Honorary Fellow in Political Economy, University of Wisconsin.

“A volume which has a labor-saving value for any library.... Here one finds upon each of the problems treated—woman and child labor, immigration, strikes and boycotts, labor organizations and employers’ associations, the agencies of industrial peace, profit-sharing, co-operation, industrial education, labor laws, and the material progress of the wage-earning classes—the principal facts and comments of all the chief authorities ... with helpful bibliographical lists and references to volumes and chapters.”—The Commons, Chicago.

15 + 579 pages, cr. 8 vo., cloth, $1.60 net.

ON INDUSTRIAL LEGISLATION

Some Ethical Gains Through Legislation

By MRS. FLORENCE KELLEY.

The book has grown out of the author’s experience as Chief Inspector of Factories in Illinois from 1893 to 1897, as Secretary of the National Consumers’ League from 1899 till now, and chiefly as a resident at Hull-House, and later at the Nurses’ Settlement, New York.

“Mrs. Kelley’s primary aim is to set forth the results achieved by the agitation and education of the past decade or so in certain social directions—in the recognition of the children’s right to childhood and to instruction and to opportunity, of the adult’s right to leisure, of woman’s right to the ballot, and of the purchaser’s right to genuine honest products. Her secondary aim is to show how much remains to be achieved, and what obstacles the friends of anti-child-labor legislation, eight-hour laws, pure food and correct label laws, woman suffrage and so on, have to surmount.”—The Record-Herald, Chicago.

Cloth, leather back, 341 pp., 12 mo., $1.25 net. Citizen’s Library.

ON SOME CONDITIONS OF CHILD LIFE

The Bitter Cry of the Children

By JOHN SPARGO, Author of “Socialism.”

“‘There have been many books written about the children of the poor, but none of them gives us so impressive a statement as is contained here of the most important and powerful cause of poverty.’ This prefatory judgment of Robert Hunter will be handed on by everyone who reads.... The book will live and set hundreds of teachers and social workers and philanthropists to work.... School teachers need this book, social workers, librarians, pastors, editors, all who want to understand the problem of poverty or education.”—William H. Allen in The Annals of the American Academy.

16 + 257 pages, 12 mo., $1.25 net.

ON CONDITIONS AMONG THE POOR

Poverty. A Definition and an Estimate of its Extent

By ROBERT HUNTER, President of the Social Reform Club; Chairman of New York Child Labor Committee; formerly head worker of the University Settlement of New York.

“I cannot delay writing you of my profound interest in your new book, ‘Poverty,’ which I have to-day read, with instruction, with satisfaction, and with a deep sense of your mastery of the subject.... Your chapter on ‘The Immigrant’ seems to me the most concise, the most convincing and the most logical brief statement of the subject that I have ever seen.”—Robert De C. Ward, Harvard University.

A SOCIOLOGICAL SOURCE-BOOK

Readings in Descriptive and Historical Sociology

Edited by FRANKLIN H. GIDDINGS, Ph.D., LL.D., Professor of Sociology and the History of Civilization in Columbia University. The book is a selection of extracts from sources ranging from the Bible to yesterday’s newspaper, connected with a mere outline of theory. The book is at once a rounded outline of social theory, and a suggestive guide in the method of classifying the new materials constantly appearing in reviews and the daily press.
