MAGAZINE NOTES

Readers of the Magazine will recall with interest the remarkable pictures of Indians by Edward S. Curtis, and will welcome another group accompanying an article by him that will appear in the February number. In writing of "The Indians of the Stone Houses," he describes the homes and the people of the great Southwest; the tribes who for years beyond any positive record have dwelt in Arizona and in New Mexico, and that represent in the minds of many students the oldest civilization of our continent. Away back in the sixteenth century the early Spanish explorers marvelled at the civilization and the wonderful cliff-dwellings of these desert tribes. They have

lived for centuries preserving their own customs, ceremonies and religious. beliefs, and though today most of them have embraced Christianity, they still revere their old gods, and paganism goes hand in hand with the new worship.

Previous American lecturers have been Professor Barrett Wendell, Professor George Santayana, Professor Archibald Carey Coolidge, and Professor S. B. Baker. The general subject of Dr. van Dyke's lectures is "The Spirit of America," and the following announcement, taken from a little booklet in French sent out by the Sorbonne, gives an interesting summary of their purpose: "Orateur, littérateur, poète, le conférencier

derniers temps. Sans trop sortir de son cadre, le conférencier étudiera le mouvement d'éducation sociale qui, selon lui, semble placer le peuple américain en face des problèmes particuliers qu'il a eus à résoudre ou qu'il est appelé à solutionner."

Some of the topics which Dr. van Dyke will take up are: "The Soul of a People"; "Self-Reliance and the Republic"; "Fair Play and Democracy"; "Will Power, Work and Wealth"; "Common Order and Social Co-operation"; "Personal Development and Education."

A cablegram from P. is to the New York Times gave the following account of the impression created by the first lecture:

"Dr. Henry van Dyke of Princeton University, who succeeded Prof. Baker of Harvard as the Hyde lecturer at the Sorbonne, opened his series of lectures this evening before a brilliant audience, which included, in addition to the student body, many of the most prominent Americans in Paris and distinguished French literary men.

"Dr. van Dyke outlined the scheme of his lectures, the general theme of which is "The Spirit of America.' His subject to-night was 'The Soul of a People.'

"He said that, in order to understand the American people, it was necessary to study their origin and to ascertain from what blending of
