NEWS AND VIEWS MISS CALM MORRISON HOKE Comrade Calm Morrison Hoke—The fallacy of that stupid old saying that “Woman's place is in the home” is most_emphatically proven in the career of Miss Calm Morrison Hoke of Palisade, N. J. First, last and all the time Miss Hoke is a’ socialist, and it is doubtful if there is a person of her age:(she is twenty- five) who is so well informed on the subject of socialism. Miss Hoke, in addition to b c contributor to socialist publications, occupies an enviable position in the industrial and sci- entific world. As consulting chemist of the Jewelers’ Technical Advice Co. of New York, she has won considerable distinction among some of the biggest and most famous jewelers ‘of the United States. To them she is known only as C. M. Hoke, A.B, B.S. A.M. and the probabilities are that they would be’ con- siderably surprised to learn that the expert whose words of wisdom they value so highly is a girlish young woman who devotes her spare time to the cause of socialism, Likes Biology—"The biological articles in the Review are great—more thrilling than a dozen novels. I am studying biology now, thanks to the Review—also Karl Marx. The ing a frequent Review has been a great help to me."—C. C., California, ‘Winnsboro, Texas—The Texas comrades hold an encampment at Winnsboro from Aug. 2 to 6 and expect a good sized attendance. Some of our friends write that they expect to handle a lot of good socialist literature and we hope our friends in the neighborhood will all attend and get acquainted. Why can’t the other states do as well as Texas? ‘An Appreciation—"I_ wish to call your at- tention to the value of the articles now run- ning in the Review under:the title of “SAVAGE, SURVIVALS IN HIGHER PEOPLES,” as a text book for the Socialist Sunday School, We have very few good books for this work. Cannot these articles be published in cheap pamphlet form so each individual scholar might possess a copy in our Sunday Schools for study and reference? Am offering the above as a sug- gestion. Yours for Socialist Sunday Schools, W. S. Hutchins.” We take pleasure in announcing that. the Publishing House will publish these articles in book form about the first of October at a ice within the reach of all Review readers t Sunday School scholars. A Socialist Dynamo—Comrade L. T. Rush of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, is certainly a “live ire.” Although’ working eight hours a day at his trade as a boilermaker, he finds time every evening to hammer home a socialist ar- gument or two into the heads of his fellow workers in Cedar Rapids. He has so far or- dered three bundles of June Reviews number- ing 175 copies. More power to Comrade Rush. From Local 64, I. W. W., Minneapolis— “Please forward us forty’ more June Reviews. Our first bundle of seventy went like hot cakes. It certainly is a great issue. Keep the good work up.”—Anderson, Sec’y. Reply by Professor Moore—Comrade Cole of Detroit asks: “Why is it that a good many, animals, including man, have ‘teats’ on the males as well as females, only not so well de- veloped in the male generally? Are they ves- tigial organs?” And Comrade Moore has sent in the following reply: “The cause of these ‘organs is not known certainly. Some autho: ties speak of them as vestigial organs surviv- ing from a time when mammary glands were functional in both sexes of human beings. But I do not myself see any evidence for this, view. Such organs are found in the males of other species besides the human. They prob- ably represent some entangling of the sex characters not yet well understood.”—J. H.,M.
