A Prize Picture Puzzle
The Forum.
"TIIE FORUM is to the United States what T he Nr-r-
is to England, and more- incomparably the
best thoughtful periodical we have ever Itad."
TKENTH ('F.NTl'KY
rpHE F0BUM contains articles about what men
are now doing in the world.
T he problem! and the tasks of your own life and
thought, and of our own country, and of our own
time; the education of your children; the latest re­
sults of research in your own epecial study; the great
books of the period; the real leaders; the large move-
ments—are these not the most interesting subjects?
The secret of T hb F ohum - s hold on ite readers is
that its writers make it helpful to all who think.
Its readers form the dominant part of every pro-
feseion, craft, and clase-those who are succeeding
because they have a correct measure of the intellec­
tual forces and of the larger activities of American
life, the best-informed, and the moot ambitious.
Its writers are the leaders of thought and of ac­
tion everywhere and in all kinds of important work.
Ask the best informed man in your community
what he thinke of T hb F orum , or send to us for
the written opinions of some of the leading men in
your State, and in all other States.
