The setting or this book is prin cipally in New York, and Philadel phia although Bok's travels take him in many other places in, the world. His life story starts in 1863 and leads up to 1920. A brief summary of Edward Bok's life is given below. 1863 Born in Hedler, Netherlands. 1870 September 2 0, arrived in the United States, 1870 Entered public school in Broo klyn. 1873 Obtained first position in a bakery at 50 cents a week. 1876 Entered employ of the West ern Union Telegraph Company. 188 2 Entered employ of Henry Holt & Co., as stenographer. 1884 Entered employ of. Charles Scribner and Sons. 1884 Became editor of the Brook lyn magazine. 188 6 Founded the Bok Syndicate press. 1889 Became editor of the Ladies' Borne Journal. 78 96 October 20.

Visited I he battle fronts of France as guest of the British government. 1919 Relinquished editorship of The Ladies' Home Journal. 19 20 Published The Americaniza tion of Edward Bok. The main character of the story is Edward Bok, who tells of his Americanization from birth to the present time. He seems to be an ambitious and hand-working man, striving to help the public as well as himself. He had a good hobby to idolize great men, and to strive to emulate their virtues. In writing this story Bok wrote in (he third person and used exception ally good English. He used moder ately long words and descriptive sen tences that are easy to understand. I think this is a good book for younj? people to read if they read it closely and copy the good points for their own life. ED McCLELLAN.
