Athough Dr. Hook'- volume i.s excellently written it fi greatly invoived in the discussiome of various, doctrines and philosôphie. related, to. Marxigm. Some of -tht chapter heads are "Tbe Ortbodo;% Canonization," "TheRevisionist Ex-' - eesi,""The,.Syndicalist Heresy,' wich are in tbemsehves strange haniguage to the ordinary layrnan. The doctrines and ýthe,,interpreta- tions that.bave become an, outgrowth of the original pbilosopby of Marxi are ýmany. Even during bis lifetime Marx "watched witb critical uneasi- ness tbe doctrinal deviations, and false tactical moves of bis adherents tbrougbout the world, and especialiy in Germiany." Tbe author explains in luminous detail the purposes and, con- structions of tbe fonr great moye- menti. wbicb clairned "to be carrying 'on in tbe great spirit of Marx." SDr. Hook's own interpretation of Marx's théories is cd.aiy. given and defies many of tbe Socialists who still claim to be true - to Marx. In a brief review it is impossible to' go' into detail concerning the variousý points in tbèé.author's interpretation such as Marx's conception of bis- tory, of the c'Iass struggle, bis tbeôry I of the State, of revolution, etc. The interest in Marx bas been especialiy outstanding this year because of the celebration during the spring of the fiftietb anniversary 'of bis deatb.

But where there is a wiil, there is 'a way, and my own Ionging for Russian food was so great, that i.n several years I had acquired quite a "repertoire" of Russian 'na- tional dishes wîtb whicb I regaled my American friends.
