THE ENGLISH
MADE INTERESTING
In “A ROOM WITH A VIEW”
by Foster, an interesting thought
provoking plot is woven around
some rather stupid and common
place English travellers. At least
they appear stupid when the reader
meets them at Florence. One is
tempted to lay aside the book at
the end of the first chapter.
The main interest in the story
centers about the change which
takes place in the attitude of
LUCY, a young English girl. She
has been reared in a conventional
close bound English , atmosphere.
She never thinks for herself. She
never dares look at the world ex
cept through the . glasses furnished
by her elders. She is in a “room
without a view.” Just how she
comes to entertain a larger view
of the world should remain for the
author to disclose.—A. A. M.
MEANDERING ’MONGST
THE MAGAZINES
“Is the Roman Catholic church
in the United States an American
or an Alien Institution?” Questions
of this nature have long lost their
novelty, and their mention is re
ceived without enthusiasm. Never
theless, the announcement that the
FORUM will run a series of articles
dealing with this subject, sounds
as interesting as if it were tbe first
discussion of the question. At least
it means we are to have an intel
ligent discussion, supported by
facts and not by prejudice alone.
The discussion begins in the
March issue with a clear statement

of the Catholic view. It ia of
fered by Michael Williams, editor
I of “The Commonwealth,” organ of
! the Catholic lay literary move
i ment in the United States. He
; challenges the Protestants and other
, non-Catholics to come into the open
and assert specific points in their
charges against the church.
Williams not only makes the
stataement that Catholicism is
“compatible and congenial” to the
American spirit, but he also asserts
that the most fundamental of our
institutions sprang in a large part
from the teachings of Catholic phil
osophies. This conclusion follows
a careful analysis of the elements
working in the church. These are
named as great spiritual influence,
intellectuality, and a deep con
sciousness of social service. In
spreading these influences, the
writer claims, the Catholic church
is necessary to American progress.
John Jay Chapman, it is ex
plained in an editor’s note, holds
views diametrically opposed to
those of Williams. These will bo
presented in the next issue of the
FORUM, and with the excellent
discussion presented in the first
article of the series, something truly
worth while can be expected.

solve all these problems is neces
I sary if the editor is to be success
ful,” said George Aiken of the On
tario Argus, in his talk on “Qual
ity Rather than Quantity Circula
tion.”
Paul R. Kelty, owner of the "Eu
gene Guard, read a paper on “Cir
culation Contests—Some Recent Ex
periences.” Mr. Kelty based his ob
servations upon the contest re
j eently held by his paper. He stated
that the success of the contest de
pended upon the financial condi
tion of the paper.
Lively discussion arose over the
divergent views of the circulation
value of a school page. Art Steele,
Clatskanie Chief, defended the
school page as a circulation getter.
He was opposed by Elbert Bede,
Cottage Grove Sentinel, who con
sidered the expense insufficient for
the return. Other editors expressed
entire approval of the page if it
were discriminatingly edited.
Pacific Field Advised
“The Foreign Advertising Situa
tion” in which Ralph E. Morrison,
of the Western Farmer, advised the
small papers of Oregon to go after
business from the manufacturers on
the Pacific coast. Mr. Morrison
stated that the eastern market as
yet was too regiote for the small
towns to successfully band together
and secure national advertising. Tn
years this may be done, he said.
“Stick to the local merchant,”
was his pithy manner of expression.
Walter Burn had a message for
the newspaper who could secure na
tional advertising. A survey of the
city from the knowledge of the buy
ing habits and powers of the peo
ple was a system he approved. Map
the city according to industries,
coverage by your paper and popu
lation and submit this printed data
as a talking point to the national
advertiser were other methods that
are convincing.
