Classical Philology is established in the conviction that classical studies in America have so developed during the last quarter of a century as to demand an additional medium of publication, and that the establishment of such a journal will not only meet this need, but will also foster and encourage research, and materially help to raise the level of classical studies in this country. The journal will be devoted to investigations in the languages, literatures, history, and life of Classical Antiquities, and to reviews of current publications in these fields. It will be issued quarterly, in January, April, July, and October. The first number will appear about January 1, 1906. The first volume will contain about 380 pages. Subscription price, $3.00 a year; single copies, $1.00; foreign subscriptions, $3.50. THE CLASSICAL JOURNAL Published under the auspices of the Classical Association of the Middle West and South, and edited by a Board appointed by the Association; Professor ARTHUR FAIRBANKS, of the University of Iowa, and Professor GORDON J. LAING, of the University of Chicago, Managing Editors. The Classical Journal is devoted especially to the interests of teachers of Greek and Latin, as teachers, whether in school or in college work. It will contain articles, editorials, discussions, and reviews. This medium of professional communication for all active students and teachers of the Classics will prove, it is believed, a most useful and effective instrument for the improvement of instruction and for the spread of intelligent interest in these subjects, and that through its influence a marked improvement in the standing of the Classics in this country may be confidently expected. The Classical Journal will be issued eight times a year, the first number to appear about December 1, 1905. Each number will contain at least thirty-two pages. Subscription price, $2.00 a year; single copies, 30 cents; foreign subscriptions, $2.25. DEPARTMENT 20 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO PRESS CHICAGO OR NEW YORK The University of Chicago Press General Sociology An Exposition of the Main Development in Sociological IN By ALBION W. SMALL Professor and Head of the department of Sociology in the this important book Professor Small brings his wide reading and keen analytical powers to bear on the history of sociology and its present claims to be regarded as a science. These claims have often been disputed, on the ground that the material of sociology has already been pre-empted by the recognized social sciences-ethnology, history, economics, etc. Professor Small's answer is that the work of co-ordinating these various groups, of surveying the process of human association as a whole, is a task distinct from that of a worker in one of the special fields, and that the body of knowledge so gained legitimately ranks as a science. In other words, sociology is to social science in general what neurology is to medicine. It is addressed to historians, economists, political scientists, psychologists, and moralists, quite as much as to sociologists. xiv + 739 pp., 8vo cloth. Net $4.00, postpaid, $4.23. A Decade of Civic Development A By CHARLES ZUEBLIN Professor of Sociology in the University of Chicago. Author of American Municipal Progress. Formerly President of American League for Civic Improvement. VIGOROUS optimist is in himself a hopeful sign of the times. The author of this volume is a man of this stamp. The last decade," he says, "has witnessed not only a greater development of civic improvement than any former decade, but a more marked advance than all the previous history of the United States can show." Professor Zueblin is a practical man, and his book is a practical book. It gives a concise and spirited account of certain definite measures (political, economic, social, and artistic) for the betterment of American cities. Here is a subject that lies at our very doors, a subject that no citizen can afford to overlook. Beginning with a discussion of the revived interest in citizenship, he treats in turn the training of the citizen, the making of the city, the educational effect of the great world's fairs, and the recent improvements in the cities where most has been done-Boston, New York, Harrisburg, and Washington. 200 pp., 12mo, cloth.

The former will contain scientific articles and critical reviews; the latter, articles and reviews of a more general nature, with special reference to the needs of teachers. ADDRESS DEPARTMENT 20 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO PRESS CHICAGO OR NEW YORK NOTEWORTHY McClure PUBLICATIONS The New Idolatry and Other Discussions REV. WASHINGTON GLADDEN This notable book is a protest against the commercializing of government, of education, and of religion; against the growing tendency in Church and State to worship power and forget the interests of justice and freedom; against the dethronement of God and the enthronement of Mammon. The volume includes the author's famous address on "Tainted Money," which is a splendid appeal for a revival of ethical idealism in our national life. Cloth, 12mo. Net, $1.20; postpaid, $1.30. Irish History and the Irish Question GOLDWIN SMITH A brilliant treatment of the Irish question in the light of the lessons afforded by the history of the past relations between England and her neighbor. Notable for its liberal and enlightened sympathy and for the insistence which it places upon natural rather than political causes for Ireland's suffering. The author has done more to throw light upon the actual status of the Irish question than any writer of our time. It should do much towards creating a better understanding of the situation.

The Torch a GEORGE EDWARD WOODBERRY This book is generally regarded as Professor Woodberry's masterpiece. It breathes not only an intense love of books, but an equally deep sympathy with life. "What he says of Shelley ... . . and his sympathetic appreciation of Milton is a joy to lovers of poetry."-Milwaukee Sentinel. "At opposite extreme from the cheap jingoism which looks upon the Caucasian race, or perhaps even the Anglo-Saxon branch of it, as the divinely appointed heir of the ages, is the broad evolutionary theory set forth in 'The Torch."" - Springfield Republican.
