To Outlook Subscribers

Just the other day a subscriber sent me a check for $7 with a letter asking me to put seven of his friends upon the subscription list for ten weeks apiece. He wanted to introduce The Outlook to his friends and his friends to The Outlook.

That letter made me think that there might be many others among our subscribers who would appreciate a convenient and inexpensive way of giving their friends a taste of The Outlook's quality. That is why I have asked our Subscription Department to provide a blank form which will enable our subscribers conveniently to make such introductions.

Just fill in as many names as you wish in the space provided below this invitation. Don't bother to send any money. A bill will be forwarded to you later. You won't have to think a minute to call to mind several names of people who ought to know The Outlook. If you wish, I'll write to the friends for whom you subscribe, telling them that The Outlook is a gift from you.

TH

HE real menace on the hard-surfaced roads, as reported in "Motor Travel," especially near the larger cities, isn't the fellow who travels between twentyfive and thirty-five miles an hour, but the chap who insists upon viewing the scenery mostly at his right, at the rate of fifteen miles an hour, holding up miles of other cars who may not be upon sightseeing bent, and are really going somewhere.

Certainly any man who wants to view the scenery ought to be hung, drawn, and quartered. Our roads ought to be reserved for those who are really going somewhere even if they only expect to turn around and come home again.

"Your hair wants cutting badly, sir," said a barber, insinuatingly, to a cus

tomer.

"No, it doesn't," replied the man in the chair; "it wants cutting nicely. You cut it badly last time."

Book publishers have found an overwhelming demand for autobiographies during the past year. One commentator attributes this public demand for "Lives and Letters" to the interest stirred up in "True Stories" and "Confessions" by Bernarr Macfadden, "snappy" magazine publisher. . . . The book publishers are not complaining, for the autobiographical works sell at a much higher price than fiction and cost a very little more to' produce.

The "Penn Punch Bowl" tells this

one:

The professor had asked time and again for the students to put a more personal touch in their themes, so one of the papers which he received ended thus: "Well, professor, how are the wife and kiddies? And, by the way, before I forget it, could you lend me five dollars?"

"I have a terrible cold to-day."
"What'll you take for it?"
"Make me an offer."

Experiments recently conducted under Government supervision in England show that the likelihood of infection through telephone ear and mouth pieces is infinitesimally small.

HOME WORK

"A goat is about as big as a sheep if the sheep is big enough. A female goat is called a buttress, a little goat is called a goatee. Goats are very useful for eating up things. A goat will eat up more things than any animal that ain't a goat.

My father got a goat once. My father is an awful good man. Everything he says is so, even if it ain't so. This is all I know about goats."

An old colored man was arraigned before a justice on a charge of assault. During the proceedings the judge asked him if he wanted a lawyer appointed to defend him.

"No, no, Judge," he replied; "I don't want no lawyer. But I suttingly would like a couple of good witnesses, if you got 'em."

Proof changes by members of Congress and other Government officials cost the United States $220,327 last year. An economy could be effected by their making up their minds before sending their material to the printers.

He had just arrived from the old country and was not familiar with the use of the telephone, so he took down the receiver and demanded:

"Aye vant to talk to my vife."

The operator's voice came back sweetly, "Number, please?"

"Oh," he replied, "she bane my second

vun."

From "Life:"

"Does your wife economize?" "Yes; she does without practically everything I need."

Nurse: "On whom are they operating to-day?"

Orderly: "A fellow who had a golf ball knocked down his throat at the links."

"And who's the man waiting so nervously in the hall? A relative?" "No; that's the golfer a Scotch gentleman. He's waiting for his ball."

From the "Fishing Gazette:"

A bashful young man was courting a girl, but he was so backward in his lovemaking that she began to grow impatient. Finally, one night, while they were taking a walk he summoned up courage to put his arm about her. "Do you think I'm making progress?" he hesitantly asked. "Well, at least you're holding your own," was the reply.

From "Pearson's Weekly:" Little Boy: "That lady gave me some chocolates."

Mother: "I hope you were polite about it?"

Little Boy: "Yes, mamma."
Mother: "What did you say?"

Little Boy: "I said I wished pa had met her before he got acquainted with you."

Britain's Debt

N your editorial of December 2 (page 502) there appears the following:

Great Britain's offer to which the "Daily News" refers was not a generous gesture, but the offer of a very good bargain for Great Britain. She did not ask America to do only what she was willing to do herself, but to do a great deal more: Great Britain, it is true, would have written off the debts of her debtors, but she would have had her own debts written off.

To the writer this appears as a hardly fair statement in view of the facts, which are as follows:

The war debts due the United States amount to approximately $11,500,000,000, those due to Great Britain to $9,500,000,000, Great Britain owing the United States of America, roughly, $4,500,000,000. Had Great Britain's tentative offer been taken up by the United States, the United States would have wiped off $11,500,000,000, and Great Britain $9,500,000,000 less $4,500,000,000, or a net of $5,000,000,000.

STAMMERING

If the stammerer can talk with ease when alone, and most of them can, but stammers in the presence of others, it must be that in the presence of others he does something that interferes. If then we know what it is that interferes, and the stammerer be taught how to avoid that, it must be that he is getting rid of the thing that makes him stammer. That's the philosophy of our method of cure. Let us tell you about it.

United States would have written off (population, 115,000,000) $100 per head, while Great Britain wrote off (population, 38,000,000) $131 per head, or nearly one-third more. Even without taking into consideration Great Britain's post-war industrial depression or her very heavy human and material losses in the war, the sacrifice that her citizens would have made is greater than that called from the citizens of the United States in canceling all debts.

I have not discussed whether the debts should have been written off, but simply your caustic use of the word "generous." G. S. BROOKS.
