Part 9

The GLEBE publishes twelve or more complete books a year. It is an attempt on the part of the editors and publishers to issue books entirely on their own merit and regardless of their chance for popular sale. Once a month--and occasionally more frequently--the GLEBE brings out the complete work of one individual arranged in book form and free from editorials and other extraneous matter.

Prominent among numbers for the year 1914 are Des Imagistes, an anthology of the Imagists' movement in England, including Pound, Hueffer, Aldington, Flint and others; essays by ELLEN KEY; a play by FRANK WEDEKIND; collects and prose pieces by HORACE TRAUBEL; and THE DOINA, translations by MAURICE AISEN of Roumanian folksongs. The main purpose of the GLEBE is to bring to light the really fine work of unknown men. These will appear throughout the year.

Chants Communal

BY HORACE TRAUBEL

Boards $1.00 net; $1.10 postpaid.

Inspirational prose pieces fired by revolutionary idealism and prophetically subtle in their vision. The high esteem in which Traubel's work is held is attested by the following unusual commendations:

Jack London: "His is the vision of the poet and the voice of the poet."

Clarence Darrow: "Horace Traubel is both a poet and a philosopher. No one can say anything too good about him or his work."

George D. Herron: "It is a book of the highest value and beauty that Horace Traubel proposes to give us, and I can only hope that it will be read as widely and appreciatively as it more than deserves to be; for it is with a joy that would seem extravagant, if I expressed it, that I welcome 'Chants Communal.'"

Not Guilty

A Defence of the Bottom Dog

Cloth 50c. Paper 25c.

A humanitarian plea, unequalled in lucidity and incontrovertible in its logic.

Our Irrational Distribution of Wealth

BY BYRON C. MATHEWS

Cloth $1.00 net.

The author undertakes to show that the agencies which are used in distributing the products of industry and are responsible for the extremes in the social scale have never been adopted by any rational action, but have come to be through fortuitous circumstances and are without moral basis. The wage system, as a means of distribution, is utterly inadequate to measure the workers' share. The source of permanent improvement is found in social ownership, which transfers the power over distribution from the hands of those individuals who now own the instruments of production to the hands of the people.

Billy: The True Story of a Canary Bird

By MAUD THORNHILL PORTER

950 copies, Fcap 8vo. $1.00 net

This pathetic little story was first issued by Mr. Mosher in a privately printed edition of 500 copies and was practically sold out before January 1, 1913. The late Dr. Weir Mitchell in a letter to the owner of the copyright said among other things: "Certainly no more beautiful piece of English has been printed of late years." And again: "May I ask if this lady did not leave other literary products? The one you print is so unusual in style and quality and imagination that after I read it I felt convinced there must be other matter of like character."

Books and the Quiet Life: Being Some Pages from The Private Papers of Henry Ryecroft

By GEORGE GISSING

950 copies, Fcap 8vo. 75 cents net

To the lover of what may be called spiritual autobiography, perhaps no other book in recent English literature appeals with so potent a charm as "The Private Papers of Henry Ryecroft." It is the highest expression of Gissing's genius--a book that deserves a place on the same shelf with the Journals of De Guérin and Amiel. For the present publication, the numerous passages of the "Papers" relating to books and reading have been brought together and given an external setting appropriate to their exquisite literary flavor.

Mr. Mosher also begs to state that the following new editions are now ready:
