ROBERT HUNTER’S

attempt to define and estimate the extent of

Poverty.

Mr. Hunter is President of the Social Reform Club; Chairman of the New York Child-Labor Committee, formerly Head Worker of the University Settlement of New York.

Cloth, 12mo, $1.50, net.

“... Mr. Hunter’s book is at once sympathetic and scientific. He brought to this task a store of practical experience in settlement and relief work gathered in many parts of the country. His analysis of the problem is marked by keen insight and sound judgment. There is no sentimental foolishness, no hysterical extravagance in this book; nor, on the other hand, is it the smug treatise of a cold-blooded statistician. It is the work of a man who has observed the evils of poverty at first hand, who feels strongly the injustice of what he has seen, and yet who thinks straight—a man with a heart and a brain....”—THE SOCIAL SETTLER in the Boston Transcript.

W. J. GHENT’S

Survey of Social divisions.

Mass and Class.

By the author of “Our Benevolent Feudalism,” who claims that the difference in methods of making a living is the only true basis of division into economic classes.

EDGAR G. MURPHY’S

Discussion of certain of the Educational, Industrial and Political Issues of the Southern States.

Problems of the Present South

“The book’s hopefulness, its moral earnestness, and its hold upon fundamental principles, distinguish it among recent writings, bearing on similar educational, industrial and political issues. It is a thoroughly just and intelligent effort to contribute, from a standpoint within the life and thought of the South, to democratic conditions in our Southern States, and the industrial, educational and political problems are treated as phases of the essential movement towards a genuinely democratic order.”—The St. Louis Republic.
