a*9PRP THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY, JUNE 3, 1921 LIBRARY NEWS Bryce, James. To students of political science no living man stands lets in need of an introduction than James Bryce. His name on the title page of any book is sufficient warranty, for there is no scholar in any part of the English- speaking world who has earned a better claim to write with authority upon questions of comparative gov- eminent. This is not altogether sur- Bryce made his way into the front rank of political historians with his *otable study of mediaeval imperial- ism. Since then he has written much; but in all these years he has never put his name to anything that was not good substance and good litera- ture as well. Now, at the age of eighty-three, he is happily able to crown this cycle of service by giving to the world his mature reflections upon the merits and faults of twen- tieth-century democracy. Thre term "democracy"-is being rather badly jostled in these hectic years. So Lord vce does well to begin with a definition. Democracy, as he under- stands the word, is the term applied to any form of government in which the people exercise ultimate political control by means of their votes, . . Then follows an analysis of demo- cratic institutions in six typical countries, France, Switzerland, the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. As to the great and timely value of Lord Bryce's volumes there can be no question.â€"They are the work of a master-hand, which has not lost its cunning. The shrewd observations, the quick and effective strokes of descriptions, the deftness in picking out the things that really count.â€"these qualities are as much in evidence here as they were in the American commonwealth thirty years ago. It is risking very little to venture the prediction that Lord Bryce's book will quickly gain and prising, for it is fifty years since »nd lucid exposition of modern demo- George Chee. a Chinese, who was two yards of white paper, bearing a cook in the Seventh Cavalry at the 126 signatures, came to national head- time of the Custer Massacre, was | quarters of the American Legion buried recently by a i>ost of the Amer-f{rom women 0f port Allegheny, Piu, ican Legion at Sitka.
