TH HE value of The Outlook lies in its breadth of vision, normal view-point, and unswerving steadiness of purpose. The ideal precedes all things, and a magazine without an ideal is like a man without a country. The view-point of The Outlook is much needed in these excitable times. Progress, development, and rational growth are attained only under normal conditions. That we are reverting to a steadier mood, must be evident to all who think profoundly. Jazz in thought and writing is merely a phase, no deeper The Next 13 Numbers of The Outlook For Only $1 If you are not already a subscriber, send $1 for special thirteen weeks' subscription THE OUTLOOK COMPANY 381 Fourth Ave., New York City than the music which suggests the name; it is rather like a gay circus in a side street that soon passes by. When the brief glamour has vanished, the boys and girls go back to their studies. Those who write must bring new faith and courage to all who labor for the welfare of mankind. The world has good sound reason to look forward to great international achievements. America is the most idealistic country, as its past proves. The wise journals of the present are those that inspire hope in its future. DandBloed UTLOOK. September 20, 1922. Volume 132, Number 3.

Outlook An Illustrated Weekly Journal of Current Life WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1922 FROM A DIPLOMAT'S NOTE-BOOK-FOURTH INSTALLMENT OF "UNDER FOUR PRESIDENTS" BY OSCAR S. STRAUS THE WIND TERROR OF THE EAST BY LIEUTENANT-COMMANDER K. C. MCINTOSH IRELAND REVISITED BY FREDERICK W. CLAMPETT A FEW RECOLLECTIONS OF BY GEORGE KENNAN பப I HAVE known The Outlook for thirty years, and have been a steady reader of it, and know of no periodical which has so consistently stood for the best of worth-while reading and been such a true reflection of American life. I have always found in it the note of that progressiveness which makes for sure progress. Very few readers realize the tremendous influence that a periodical coming out week by week may have on the minds of its readers, especially when, as in the case of The Outlook, it is a journal that is read when men's minds are at leisure and are receptive to influences. The editors of The Outlook have, to my mind, ever been conscious of this stewardship, and have never failed in their responsibilities. Edward W.
